if i had a nickel for every time lewis hamilton befriended a 5’9 blonde german who thinks michael schumacher is the best thing since sliced bread i’d have two nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice
#it’s not weird actually cos lewis saw seb retiring n was like#right i can’t cope let me get the next best thing which is ofc mick#anyways i’m going insane over those two#bc they are basi the same height w mick being slightly taller#cos he’s the same height as seb despite seb saying otherwise in grill the grid#and also lewis n mick have matching fucking helmets like wtf??#n ik ik michael had a yellow helmet at merc but he also had a red one did he not???#and the michael’s red helmet is far more famous than the yellow one#so if mick really wanted to copy michael surely he would’ve chosen red#so therefore he’s matching w lewis#and also like those two are just insane n i love them both so much#schumilton#sewis

There’s a reason why twt and also some teamLH “fan” is sh’tting on George so hard: he’s turning out to be actually good and not a fraud. Bet that a lot of said “fans” were hoping for him to get crushed by Lewis and/or being his carpet nr2 driver just bc in their mind Lewis is not human and can never do wrong, therefore is entitled to w/e they think he’s entitled to have, and when he doesn’t, George being actually good is the enemy. That’s why the also shit on his results when he gets them.
Yeah of course. That's the reason. They want Lewis to be the best, which is fair I want the same for my favourite drivers, and to get the best results, again I get it, and it's not the first time my favourite drivers are in a line up together (Williams 2020/21 I miss you daily my beloveds).
They want the team to prioritise Lewis and then turn around and say he doesn't get prioritised and that makes no sense. As long as both drivers are in the game Mercedes is going to treat them equally because this is how the sport works. If you have an issue with that go watch a season where Lewis was solely prioritized from the beginning to the end. So 2021.
The issue is not wanting Lewis in front, I can't claim I wasn't disappointed when Lewis overtook George on the better strategy in Hungary. But you know what I didn't do? I didn't go around telling Lewis fans how little he deserved that P2 and even if I wasn't a Lewis fan myself I wouldnt have done that. The issue lies with completely diminishing and creating a false narrative around George, one of the main arguments is that George didn't have the pace, when he did. They matched pace at the very least throughout the entire hard stint if not longer, the only time they werent in a comparative window was at the end with George on the softs. Do you know who he was matching then after his tyres warmed? Max.

Saturday 11 July 1835
7 ¼
1
No kiss. Got up soon after 6 but bilious headache and lay down again - dull but finish morning - took the £50 bank of England n° 108 November 11, 1834 Manchester out of the note George brought back on Wednesday and sent it under cover to ‘Messrs. Rawsons Bankers Halifax’ by John at 8 am or soon after - sat talking to A- in the blue room - very biliously inclined - F57° now at 9 am then breakfast in about ¾ hour - Washington came - stable racks will not be ready till Wednesday - George accompanied by James Howarth who had taken the cart and my 2 horses before breakfast to Greenwoods for 5 planks worth of boards for floor over Hopkins’ cowhouse, got back very well and went forwards to Hopkins - Charles H- also with him to lay the boards - had Mawson - ordered a baring to be begun of Whiskam stone on Monday if possible the baring and loadening should be 3 1/2d per cubic yard - but said it should be 3d the good stuff to be carted down here to the opposite approach gate at 1/. per cubic yard - Mr Husband called and said something from Mr Harper I forget what - Had Joseph Mann - the water comes out into the pit at 78 yards deep - he has taken his level from 80 yards 1ft. deep in the pit, and then it would come out about 10 yards below the garden low corner - but it should be driven at the bottom of the rag both for ease and getting more water and then it should be taken from 90 yards in the pit and that would bring it about just above (perhaps) my rustic chair in the walk (at the thorns bottom of call croft) - could not get rid of the stuff - give it up - then till after 1 looking over my journals and accounts respecting Mr Parker bills and cash account –
SH:7/ML/E/18/0059
left A- copying must papers again and off to Halifax at 1 ¾ - down the old bank to Mr Parker’s office - saw both him and Mr Adam - explained about the bills - left the cash account with them to have another from the time (18 June 1833) of my leaving Shibden for Copenhagen up to 1st instant –
bills n° 1 = £28.5.0
n°2 = £36.6.2
n°3 = £93.1.3
n°4 = £89.3.4
n°5 = £17.16.0 - £2+

+ to be carried to cash account
added up the amount of these 5 bills Mr P- took it at £260 which I paid him full up to 30 June last, and he receipted (‘settled’) all the bills - so that I owe nothing for law except since that time - and in the cash account floating between us there is a balance in my favour of £12 + and £10 Wakefield road money still to come in, but then Mrs. Fergusons trust money is to pay ¼ year = £20 or more and ½ years interest on Mr. Wainhouse’s £1000 at 4 ¼ p.c. is now due (due on the 8th instant) and is to be paid by P. and A- Mr. W- has no objection to take six navigation shares - but P- does not think he will give 400 guineas may give £405 - I said all that was got above £400 was clear gain - I should be glad if P- could get £410 but would take £405 for the six shares - must have as much more than £400 per share as would pay the expense - but I had made up my mind to sell all my navigation stock - Mr. P-‘s bill had frightened but it was perhaps the best thing that could have come to me - it had made me examine into the expense of borrowing money - borrowed money would cost me 10 p.c. the 1st year and no building could pay for this - Mr. P- did not deny this - Mr. Adam said I had better put my stock up by auction - Mr. P- thought not - had better sell the 6 shares 1st - very well - agreed - said I could was not in such immediate haste but that I could wait perhaps till Xmas before selling the rest - on 1st saying I had made up my mind to sell all, said should I pay off Mr. Wainhouses £1000? Mr. P-‘s manner of answering I must do as I liked about that proved that he was rather nettled - I then observed well! as I had paid the expense of the bond, perhaps I had better wait a little and settle with my aunt and Miss Walker 1st; for, on paying the £200 I paid down towards the five bills saying I would send the other £60 this evening, I made a [min.] of it in my rough book and Mr P- would not help seeing the entries received from A- £200 (of the Mytholm rents given into her care) and received from A- £100 I said that I certainly thought it better to avoid the expense of borrowing but certainly this consideration apart, I thought the navigation a speculative concert too much so for me, and I should be glad to back out at anything above £400 - Mr. P- begged I would not pay the 5 bills if it was not convenient - said it was perfectly convenient, and I did not like to have my account books disgraced by any bills of long standing - P- said he had had some conversation with Mr. Abbott respecting the navigation and he (A-) told him Mr. Lewis Alexander asked 400 guineas for the 3 shares he had on sale - not a muscle of my face was changed, and I pursued the subject of my own price as if nobody’s name had been mentioned - went to Whitley’s - no letter - no news of Powson - said I had sent the morning Heralds (on Tuesday) for the six months of this year that he might put them into his press till I had 2 months more ready - for 2 volumes - had got to the top of the old bank in returning before I recollected the 2 [shaims?] more of netting silk for A- for my purse - went down the new back (and back the same way) to Nicholson’s for it - home at 3 ¾ musing on selling my navigation stock and on P- and A-‘s saying Northgate hotel would certainly not pay me - went down to Marian for a £10 joint stock note instead of sending gold to make up the £60 to P- and A- staid talking till A- came home about 6 - Marian only hopes what I have will last me my life - she called on Mrs Holmes (yesterday?) Mrs H- said it was said I thought Marian would degrade herself by her match - Marian could not tell that I thought that but told what I meant to do - I quietly observed I was sorry she had told it because sufficient till the day was the evil there of - I had never made use of the word degraded and thought I never should - I had expressed myself more strongly to Marian herself the other day than I had ever done before or perhaps should ever do again and then the word I used was mésalliance - I had never named the subject out of the house - nor had A- except to her aunt to whom on her (the aunt) mentioning the subject she said I had told her to say I believed the match would take place I meant to do so and so but Mrs AW was requested not to name this communication and I felt sure she had not done so, and would not do so - Marian sure her friend had heard something - I said I could not answer for what might be said by other people when they began to tell my thoughts for me - but I had told Marian I should never say a syllable derogatorily to her friend - I respected his character and could only repeat if she must choose between him and the 2 she formerly mentioned she would take if she had an opportunity (Mr Christopher Rawson and Mr John Priestley) I should much prefer her present choice - not my intention to say this to anyone else but herself but if it could be any consolation to any one I had no objection - her friend’s mother had inquired after my aunt - Marian said my aunt had never inquired after the family since Marian’s friend came here - the mother was annoyed - Marian said as if in atonement she Marian had only gone once a day to see my aunt ever since - upon this -‘the powers’ said I ‘can even the mother expect my aunt should like the match’ Marian! there is no policy that influences me - it is a feeling in have in spite of myself’ - Marian said she herself did not consider it a mésalliance all that, said I, is very well - ‘of course, you don’t - but different people take the same word in different acceptations - no one can deny that I go straight forward in the path nature seemed to have set out for us - it is you who step aside’ - Mrs Holmes had said, Marian and I were such different people there was nothing to be said - she did not say anything against me, but thought Marian right to please herself and consult her own happiness - what would suit the one would not the other - However it appears Marian’s friend is more annoyed at my dislike to the match than she herself is, and there was an insinuation that it might even put off the match! I said, if I was Marian’s parent, that might be very well but as it is, I have no right to influence her marrying - I have nothing to do with - he has no business to mind me - but I think he courted the connection and the place and therefore minds me.

Week 4
This has been a shit show week (for lack of a better term, but also sums it up really well).
Me:
Richard Grant | Collaboration with Krystal
Monday we received feedback that really focussed on the flow and juxtaposition of the visuals. The question was how the audio can continue to build and increase attention throughout. Shaun and Darrin both spoke to ‘Soviet Montage’ and how the juxtaposition on two images can create a new meaning, and how this could be an interesting take on the project. When researching further, there where a variety of different styles within soviet montage, but the overall idea was to take two completely different objects and create a new meaning. In a video essay I watched, they used the example of an image of a man then cut to a bowl of soup = hunger. But then use the same image of the man followed by a lady laying on a couch seductively = lust. I can see how this could have been a very interesting take on this project, however later in the week Krystal decided to take a different approach to the footage entirely. See below a sketch:
This meant changing focus. I think with the new idea I don’t know if I’m going to be able to build the music concrete piece like I was hoping, or not in the way I first considered, due to the repetitive nature of the piece. I’m still going to attempt to do it, but shift my focus slightly. Due to this, I ended up contacted James Harris from last semester’s audiovision class, and spoke to him about a project he worked on that looked at different frequencies and how these can relate to different shape and space. He also sent through his essay that helped to explain this theory in more depth. This got me thinking about how I could play with the juxtaposition of shape and colour in the Richard Grant videos. As you can see below in a new test video, I’ve attempted to use different frequencies of noise to relate to the different shapes, so the more organic imagery has lower frequencies and the sharper images have a higher frequencies. I then added a saw wave to match the red. I do want to look further into colour theory and see what wave forms will work best with red. But in relation to Krystal’s idea, and looking to keep attention, I’m thinking that as the images split more, the frequency gets higher in pitch and get layered, therefore playing with the space and the sound. I’ll have to wait until Krystal gives me a bit more footage to work with, but I think this might work. My only concern is the stagnant nature of using white noise and if it’s just going to be exceptionally dull.
Note: After all this work, I got an email from Krystal late Saturday afternoon saying she had changed her mind again completely! I understand collaborations are hard, but how does one emphasise the need to communicate and the importance of sharing. Just feels like I’ve been railroaded and I’m just a token sound designer who’s just told to slap on a track. So this was meltdown two of the week! YAY!

ACMI | Collaboration with Putri
My first meltdown of the week goes to my ACMI collaboration.
Me:
Following Monday’s feedback I completely understand the need for some form of structure. Going into feedback I knew there wasn’t much to run on and early days in the collaboration didn’t give me much. But this still feels the same now. Although Putri has given me her concept/story: “good things in life and being young at heart”, I’m still very much confused and STRESSED, about where to take this. She did a demo video to a piece by Kyle Nixon and Michael Stein (Stranger Things), and with her request for something abstract I’m thinking we can run with a Kraftwerk and S U R V I V E tonality. My major meltdown has come into play with not know what the hell I’m doing or where to start, when it comes to composing. I think this stress comes from my massive fail last semester in my attempt to compose, and now this anxiety is festering with this project. But after emailing Darrin, he suggested playing around with samples from abelton and noiiz and also putting some Kraftwerk to Putri’s visuals. At least this will give me a sense of BPM and also a start.
I also watched a video interview with Kyle Nixon and Michael Stein, which just explored the creation of their score for Stranger Things, and the big thing I took from them was finding themes within the video and keeping that as rules and boundaries. They also spoke about the differences they gave between high energy moments, which uses more atonal pads and percussive hits, and mysterious moments, which used more ambient tones.

MTC - The Turn of The Screw | Collaboration with Me, Myself and I.
Oh boy, speaking of mental health… let’s dive into paranoia.
Below is a test to see where I could take things (see MTC - The Turn of the Screw test)
“A psychotic disturbance characterized by isolation from and suspicion of others and, in more severe forms, delusions of persecution and/or grandeur not amenable to reason and often resistant to all forms of psychiatric treatment.”
John M. Last ; Miquel Porta. (2018). paranoia (2nd ed.). Oxford University Press.
Zoja, Luigi, author, & Hunt, Jonathan. (2017). Paranoia : the madness that makes history. Routledge.
My biggest quest is to find a tonal palette for this piece. I want my piece to feel like a thread. How it catches and you think, “I’ll just pull a little bit” then its unstoppable. How the thread itself is an element, but the garment that it is held together is an element itself. So I’ve started looking at building the musical/tonal foundation with different wind SFX and seeing how another musical gesture (SFX of radio static, clock and pulling gestural noises) can introduce the unravelling and play with how to two intertwine.So far its just sounding little messy. I think I need to play with pauses and a bit more silence.
As I feel like my piece with Krystal is going down the shitter (or at least not going to way I was hoping), I think I might take the opportunity to do music concrete with this piece instead. I think it lends itself to this style more, as it allows you to play with pauses and the unknown… like what sound will happen next… and also allows one to sculpt something more experimental. I also want it to feel like the apprehension engine (RIP that I can’t use the RMIT one)… how it creates this strange uncharacteristic unknown. I want the to audience to feel on edge too, like the are feeling or witnessing a moment of paranoia. My ideas remind me of Thembi Soddell’s work, more specifically her “Love Songs” (2018). There is this pain and horror in the work, and this pure intensity. I’d like to achieve something like this.
I know I need to get my butt into gear with this one, because I’d like to have it somewhat completed before I start procedural worlds, which gives me two weeks.

Where does civic engagement come from? You will probably not be surprised to learn that the answer is “your parents” (who, in most cases, would give similar scores to your own). However, you probably will be surprised to learn that they passed these attitudes on to you genetically, rather than by being a good role model. The American study found that identical twins – who share almost all of their genes – were much more similar in their civic engagement than non-identical twins – who share almost all of their environment and upbringing.

Ancient Israel stood out among its ancient Near Eastern neighbors precisely because its legal traditions assume that the entire community is responsible for the welfare of the poor and vulnerable. In the epilogue to the Code of Hammurabi, the king of Babylon pledges to take care of the widow and the orphan—yet those vulnerable people are not protected by the body of the law code itself. In the Law of Moses, by contrast, the widow and orphan are explicitly protected by legislation (Exod 22:22) and given economic provision in the law code (Lev 19:9-10; Deut 24:17-21). Moses also mentions “the poor” (Exod 22:25; 23:6, 11) and “the aliens” (Exod 23:9; Deut 24:14), classes of people not even considered in any other ancient Near Eastern law code. While ancient Babylonians certainly considered it a nice thing to take care of vulnerable people, they never legislated it. For them, taking care of the vulnerable was a matter of personal responsibility, and the community should be left out of it.

Today, many researchers believe that they are five core personality traits. Evidence of this theory has been growing for many years, beginning with the research of D. W.

Alternative Facts: A Psychiatrists Guide To Twisted Relationships To Truth
The saying alternative facts has lately made this news inside a political context, but psychiatrists much like me happen to be thoroughly knowledgeable about the idea indeed, we hear many forms of alternate reality expressed nearly every day.
Many of us have to parse perceived from actual reality every single day, in nearly every facet of our way of life. So exactly how should we straighten out claims and beliefs that strike many people as odd, unfounded, fantastical or simply plain delusional?
Untruths arent always lies
First, we have to create a distinction frequently emphasized by ethicists and philosophers: that from a lie along with a falsehood. Thus, somebody that deliberately misrepresents what he or she knows to be true is laying typically, to secure some personal advantage. In comparison, somebody that voices a mistaken claim with no intent to trick isn’t laying. That individual should be not aware from the details, or may won’t believe the very best available evidence. Instead of laying, hes stating a falsehood.
Many people who voice falsehoods appear not capable of distinguishing real from unreal, or truth from fiction, yet are sincerely convinced their worldview is completely correct. Which is our entree in to the psychological literature.
In clinical psychiatry, we have seen patients having a broad spectrum of ideas that lots of people would find eccentric, exaggerated or blatantly at odds with reality. The clinicians job is, first, to pay attention empathically and then try to understand these beliefs in the patients perspective, carefully considering the individuals cultural, ethnic and non secular background.
Sometimes, clinicians could be extremely mistaken within their first impressions. A friend of mine once described a seriously irritated patient who had been hospitalized while he was adamant he had been stalked and harassed through the FBI. A couple of days into his hospitalization, FBI agents demonstrated on the system to arrest the individual. Because the old joke goes, simply because youre paranoid doesnt mean they arent once you!

When what you consider is wrong
We are able to consider distortions of reality as falling along a continuum, varying from mild to severe, depending on how rigidly the idea takes place and just how impervious it’s to factual information. Around the milder finish, we’ve what psychiatrists call over-valued ideas. They are very strongly held convictions which are at odds using what many people within the persons culture believe, but which aren’t bizarre, incomprehensive or patently impossible. A amorously held thought that vaccinations cause autism might become qualified as an over-valued idea: it is not scientifically correct, nevertheless its not absolutely past the arena of possibility.
Around the severe end of the continuum are delusions. They are strongly held, completely inflexible beliefs that aren’t altered whatsoever by factual information, and that are clearly false or impossible. Importantly, delusions aren’t described through the persons culture, faith or ethnicity. Someone who inflexibly believes that Vladimir Putin has personally implanted an electrode in the brain to be able to control his ideas would become qualified as delusional. Once the patient expresses this belief, they’re not laying or attempting to trick the listener. It’s a sincerely held belief, but nonetheless a falsehood.
Falsehoods of numerous kinds could be voiced by individuals with assorted neuropsychiatric disorders, but additionally by individuals who’re perfectly normal. Within the plethora of normal falsehood are extremely-known as false memories, which a lot of us experience quite frequently. For instance, you’re very sure you sent that check towards the electric company, however, you won’t ever did.
As social researcher Julia Shaw observes, false recollections have the same properties as any other memories, and therefore are indistinguishable from recollections of occasions that really happened. Then when you insist for your spouse, Obviously I compensated that utility bill! you aren’t laying you’re just fooled from your own brain.
An infinitely more serious kind of false memory involves a process called confabulation: the spontaneous manufacture of false recollections, frequently of the very detailed nature. Some confabulated recollections are mundane others, quite bizarre. For instance, the individual may insist and sincerely believe he had eggs Benedict in the Ritz in the morning, even if this clearly wasnt the situation. Or, the individual may insist she was kidnapped by terrorists and offer a reasonably elaborate account from the (imaginary) ordeal. Confabulation is generally seen poor severe brain damage, for example may consume a stroke or even the rupture of the circulation system within the brain.
Laying like a default
Finally, there’s falsification that lots of people would call pathological laying, and which matches through the extravagant scientific name of pseudologia fantastica (PF). Writing within the Psychological Annals, Drs. Rama Rao Gogeneni and Thomas Newmark list the following features of PF:
Reasonable inclination to lie, frequently like a defensive make an effort to avoid effects. The individual can experience a higher out of this imaginative story-telling.
The lies are very dazzling or fantastical, though they might contain truthful elements. Frequently, the lies may capture considerable public attention.
The lies have a tendency to present the individual inside a positive light, and could be a manifestation of the underlying character trait, for example pathological narcissism. However, the is based on PF usually exceed the greater believable tales of persons with narcissistic traits.
Even though the precise cause or reasons for PF aren’t known, some data suggest abnormalities in the white matter of the brain bundles of nerve fibers encircled by an insulating sheath known as myelin. However, the psychoanalyst Helene Deutsch contended that PF stems from psychological factors, like the have to enhance yourself-esteem, secure the admiration of others in order to portray yourself as whether hero or perhaps a victim.
So what about details anyway?
Obviously, all this presumes something similar to a consensus on which constitutes reality and details which almost everyone has a desire for creating the reality. However this presumption is searching more and more doubtful, in the middle of what’s become referred to as post-truth era. Charles Lewis, the founding father of the middle for Public Integrity, described ours like a period by which up is lower and lower expires and things are under consideration and nothing is real.

Much more worrisome, everyone appears with an appetite for falsehood. As author Adam Kirsch lately contended, more and more, people seem to want to be lied to. The lie, Kirsch argues, is seductive: It enables the liar and the audience to cooperate in altering the character of reality itself, in a manner that can be displayed almost magical.
So when this magical transformation of reality occurs, whether inside a political or scientific context, it might be very difficult to reverse. Because the author Jonathan Quick place it, Falsehood flies, and the Truth comes limping after it.
Psychiatrists aren’t capable of discuss the mental health of politicians they haven’t yet personally evaluated or around the nature of falsehoods sometimes voiced by our political leaders. Indeed, the Goldwater Rule prohibits us from doing this. Nonetheless, psychiatrists are acutely conscious of the all-too-human have to avoid or distort uncomfortable facts. Many may likely nod in complete agreement by having an observation frequently related to the psychoanalyst Carl Jung: People cannot stand too much reality.
