Oh we need more of the tennis player yuuta.

so true we do. a match was cancelled and rescheduled due to inclement weather, which is fine, it happens occasionally. except, the reschedule interferes with your work trip, which is how yuuta ends up with your baby boy in his lap at his pre-match press conference. yuuta was worried at first, your son definitely wouldn’t be used to the cameras and reporters, and it was also seven in the morning, so he really hoped the baby wouldn’t become too irritated, but all his worrying was for nothing. 

your baby boy didn’t seem to the mind the cameras, or the large crowd of people, his father was right there to hold him through the entire thing. with them side by side like this, their similarities really show; their droopy eyelids and tired expression, the occasional slow blinking when they’re confused or in thought, the same nose scrunch that makes everybody coo when it happens. one reporter mentions you by name, and that makes the otherwise sleepy baby perk and babble “mama” into the microphone instinctively, which melts everybody’s hearts, yuuta’s included, “that’s right, baby, that’s mama,” he coos, pinching his kid’s cheek before returning his attention to the reporter, “but, yeah, my wife—she’s great. she’s away on work right now, and we miss her a lot, but i’m so proud of her. i got to speak to her right before this conference actually, and she said she’d tune in when she could, so i hope she’s watching—wait, sorry, um… what was the question again?” (his rambling off about my wife my wife my wife is not new. it happens in every conference and interview, he’s just a loverboy through and through). 

during the match, it’s dead silent when yuuta’s about to serve and then there’s the tiniest cry of “dada,” just as he’s about the throw the ball up, which makes him smile and stop and turn to his son, and the entire crowd coos. yuuta is not too proud to blow a kiss before going to serve again.

Third place finisher Michael Schumacher speaks English instead of German during the post-race press conference at the European Grand Prix (Part 2) - Sunday 24th June 2012

English section transcription under the cut

Interviewer: Michael [prompting him for the 'in your own language' segment]

Michael Schumacher: [In English] Yeah, it's uh... these moments that make Formula 1 so special. I just wanna say thanks to all, and everybody in the team that has just worked so hard for all those times that we've worked together. And these special moments, such as we had in Monaco, and now finally here being on the podium in the end of the race - it's those moments that we all love, and that's what we've all worked for.

We've been criticised, for the last races that we've had that didn't run to plan. But that's what is the best answer, to do what we did here - get a car reliable and be strong enough and fight our way back into the podium. And that's what I all love you for - to always be behind me, to always trust in me, so I do.

And uh... it's actually in German yeah? [laughs].

The ✨gift of prophecy✨ struck again it seems 🙈

[chaossmagic]

there are probably historians in the mcu who swore blind that steve and bucky were more than 'best friends' but were either ridiculed, ostracized, or outright blacklisted from academia for daring to suggest anything so scandalous about two of the most important people in 20th century american history. they may have even lost their jobs and been discredited during the mccarthy era and the lavender scare in the late '40s and into the '50s, which saw a purge of suspected gay and lesbian civil servants from federal government (and lots of other professions too).

imagine how fucking happy they would have been when they are proven right decades later by steve himself (who never went back to peggy at the end of endgame, instead reunited with bucky for good and they are now openly a couple)

Sorry I'm still reeling from seeing a tiktok (reposted on here) doing the 'did you know X can be a symptom of ADHD?' thing except the fucking guy was dressed in like full medical scrubs, cap and all. Literally the 'putting a guy in a white coat and stethoscope to give the appearance of credibility' transparent grift alert but completely working for kids on tiktok. And here. Where it was deemed credible enough to repost.
