I'm so done with F1 normalizing the replacement of drivers mid-season

I mean c'mon: De Vries everyone sort of swept under the rug because most people agreed he wasn't doing quite as well as could be hoped but largely it was because EVERYONE WANTED THE HONEY BADGER BACK But like now? This is getting ridiculous.

Sargeant? Gone. Magnussen being replaced for one race? No one would shut up about how much better Bearman did than him. Danny Ric getting mid season booted? No one seems concerned about it. This is getting egregious, seriously. A contract is a contract and a drive is a drive.

With really good reason I can see dropping a driver, but at this point people are hardly getting full seasons if the team has any say in it, and vice versa is the sponsors have a say in it. It's gross. Let them finish the season.

At the very least let Danny race at COTA one last time my boi loves the place.

Listen I need to get this out I know it's random as fuck but you don't understand just how infuriating books can be

Major spoilers for Redwall: Outcast not that you should care in my opinion if you do you could still read and enjoy it because I am only discussing the halfway point of the book and the ending

I would suggest for maximum yapping effect to refrain from skimming and to indulge my every enraged screech with your fullest and utmost attention

Now without further ado... The most aggravating book I have ever read in my life.

Redwall is a series I love. I had read a lot of the books and, finally, I was going to read one I had been looking forward to- Outcast. There's a ferret on the cover. That's right. A ferret main character, a race previously considered as "vermin" in the other books. The back alluded to their struggle for fitting into Redwall given the prejudice against their kind and I was so excited to dig my teeth into a cute and whimsical story about my favorite animal

But guess what

In a book in which the cover is a ferret and the back description is about the ferret... Do you want to know... What the book was actually about?

Because it wasn't about the ferret. No. Not until almost to the end of the book and they are a horribly treated side character that gets so astronomically butchered by the story I closed the book in disgust at the end.

The book should have been called Sunflash the Mace because that is actually the main character and he is not an outcast at all. He is more akin to a paladin of sorts. He is a great character and his companion is awesome I have no issues with him it is not his fault for the book being so grossly mishandled

You encounter the story of the ferret halfway through the book. He is the rejected son of an evil tyrant ferret that gets raised in a shitty environment only to eventually be saved and brought to the abbey.

So, what happens?

He is abused and ostracized by his peers for being a ferret and then lashing out for being bullied. Yes he steals things but rather than just saying the ferret is a bad egg why not punish the bullies for once and help the poor ferret learn to be a bit better? The only supportive figure he had was his adoptive mom and you can see him getting worse and worse because of the lack of any sort of help

Then, eventually he runs away to join his dad. His dad, the evil tyrant. He fights for him against Redwall, and this is where things get infuriating.

His mother is almost killed. His adoptive mother. He steps in front of her and sacrificed himself to save her.

At the end of the book two characters discuss this. "I'm sorry, I guess he really wasnt evil from the start..." Another person says.

Then the most evil, sick bit of writing I have ever seen graces the last specks of the page. A phrase that rocked me to my core for all the ferret had been through and what he had done at the very end.

"no, he was. I was wrong."

From the mouth of his own adoptive mother.

Now. You may be wondering- surely, SURELY there's more to this? Maybe in the books ferrets are just evil!

EXCEPT IN ONE OF THE PREVIOUS BOOKS A RAT BECAME A TOY MAKER THAT GIVES BOATS TO KIDS, A PREVIOUSLY COMPLETELY EVIL RACE AND NEED I REMIND YOU THAT THE BOOK WAS SET UP ON THE COVER AND BACK AS IF IT WAS GOING TO BE ABOUT THE FERRET FIGHTING FOR HIS RIGHT TO BE LOVED? I BELIEVE IT WAS MARIEL AND THAT BOOK WAS INCREDIBLE AND THE BEST IN THE FUCKING SERIES

That's all I wanted to say

I wish with all of my fucking heart the book was renamed to Sunflash the Mace I would have been so much less angry. I wish it had focused completely on his ending, rather than randomly having the poor ferret bastardized by his mother in the end

Read Mistmantle instead, guys

I went to a Petsmart today with my grandma to get some stuff for our pets and this person came in with their pet and when they saw how excited I got when I saw they were ferrets, why they came right over!

We talked about them, how old they were, how one was a rescue. I even got to pet them!

And of course i was allowed to take pictures! ^_^

can we talk

Verstappen looked

so happy

at the end of qualifying this weekend

and at the end of the race

that mf was GRINNING like a little boy after two rounds of quali and a sprint/race weekend where he actually had to fight other cars and drivers for the position he had.

He lives for the competition. He loves the fight of F1. The man doesn’t want to dominate any more than we want him to.

If he had a say in it we’d get a Verstappen/Norris championship battle from Bahrain to Abu Dhabi, three points between them, Leclerc with a few wins, Ricciardo somehow scoring a podium in the VCARB, and probably one hell of a race in the rain.

I have a fic draft somewhere and it's just Mirror throwing Jester Hat. She's trying to do the laundry and he's bugging her so she tosses him into the laundry basket a few times.

All this talk bout Burning Spice getting to Y/N/My Cookie is amazing.

But i feel like the hilarious joke option of the ancients just finally deploying Cream Ferret onto him immediately isn’t talked about enough.

Just this fluffy little fairy-ferret-thing going absolutely rabid on some ancient beast.

Bro better hope he got his rabies shot.

POV you are Burning spice upon trying to get to My Cookie/Y/N for the 100th time:

Burning Spice is yapping nonsense.

Whatever, go my Cream Ferret.

Sincerely don't understand the hype around Novv Kim... He does use colours he has no issue with that when it comes to StayC or Twice. Winter falls is maybe my favourite MV he's done for skz. He's so predictable. The MV made the fandom hot, bothered and feral. Was that all he (Hyunjin/Chan) wanted. Stays have some interesting theories that are interesting. Me personally I think they just went with what was certainly gonna get a strong on-going reaction. I know it's not that deep I guess but... I don't why I feel like they could've actually told a story. It's not their responsibility to do that aswell. Just venting. Hey Vilma I'm sorry to just yap in your inbox instead spread positivity. Hope all is well with you.

im tired of novvkim too - most of the times like i have said before that i need him fired for the lack of colors he puts in his stuff etc. but honestly i was really entertained by the whole werewolf/ferret bit like it was so silly to me and me as a consumer - i like to be entertained!!!!

in my eyes there was a clear story that was a continuation for red lights. with red lights ppl just see the sexy side but they quite literally explain that the double meaning for the song is struggling and being tied to your obsessive/toxic ways. in escape they overcome that and escape..! like u can see the exact clip in red lights of the chains being tied to them and in escape u can see the same clip but its in rewind - meaning they are free! and i feel like that what they were trying to tell.. to me the video also tells a story of two gay lovers who escape and run away together. im curious of what kind of storyline would u have liked to see? what do u think would’ve made it better?
