#what are they cooking...

posting about Kimi Antonelli again… Toto signed this literal child to the Mercedes Junior Programme when he was 12 years old (in April of 2019). (x)

his 2024 F2 teammate at Prema, Ollie Bearman, joined the Ferrari Driver Academy when he was 16 years old (in November of 2021). (x)

SOME MORE REFERENCE POINTS:

Alpine signed Oscar Piastri into their academy (then, Renault Sport Academy) when he was 18 (in January of 2020). (x)

McLaren signed Lando Norris as a junior driver when he was 17 (in February of 2017). (x)

Mercedes signed George Russell to their young driver programme when he was 18 (in January of 2017). (x)

Ferrari signed Charles Leclerc into their driver academy when he was 18 (in March of 2016). (x)

Red Bull signed Max Verstappen as a junior driver when he was 16 (in August of 2014). (x)

Red Bull officially made Sebastian Vettel a member of their newly-launched junior team when he was 13 (in 2001), though he was accepted/scouted earlier. (x) (x)

Ron Dennis gave Lewis Hamilton a spot in the McLaren Driver Development Programme when he was 13 (in 1998). (x)

obviously a lot has changed in this sport over the years (especially in relation to junior academies) but still… much to think about.

I had an upsetting dream last night.

[post-grammatic-stress]

If you've ever told a person who's had to be bedbound for a period of time that you wish you could "just stay in bed", DO IT.

Stay in bed. For days. But don't get up if someone needs you to, or you get bored, or you get antsy. Don't do anything other than rest. Just lie in your bed, whether you need to get stuff done around the house or socialize or anything else "productive". You'll have to cancel on people, you'll disappoint them, they won't understand.

And if you're thinking, "well, i CAN'T just be in bed. There's stuff that has to be done - I have plans", maybe ask yourself why you assumed a disabled person doesn't have plans or things to do or desires.

Also increasingly aware that a LOT of people "manage" getting through the 40+ hour work week by sleeping less than is healthy and relying on stimulants like coffee and energy drinks to keep them going.

For people who are unwilling or unable to do this...work really does just dominate your life. Like we really should not have to rely on unhealthy practices just to have a social life or keep on top of housework or whatever.

I know I post about this a lot but I'm so TIRED all the time and it's just so depressing that this is how we're expected to spend the one life we have.

This is Pixel, my Porygon2. She gets really excited when touching carpet - like hilariously so. I always figured it was because real life textures are kinda new and exciting for a digital creature. @realpokemon

Scenes/Things in Supernatural that genuinely don't make sense to me if Dean was straight:

The confession booth scene.

Sam just rolling with the fact that Dean's siren is a guy while still thinking sirens infect people through sex.

Dean being flustered by several men: Gunner Lawless, Aaron, Doctor Sexy, etc.

All the parallels between Destiel and other couples. (A big one being "last night on Earth" bc how do you do that accidentally.)

Having all the gay jokes be on Dean instead of Sam.

Paralleling Sam meeting his childhood celebrity crush with Dean meeting Gunner Lawless.

The boner Dean got when Cas cleaned up.

Dean gulping after Cas does an impression from a Western movie.

Charlie, a lesbian, calling Castiel "dreamy."

The way Mary looks at Dean and Cas when they hug.

Dean wondering why everyone assumes he's gay, while Sam not caring.

The logic that Charlie can't flirt with guys because she's only attracted to women, but then having Dean flirt with the guy for her.

Dean seeming disappointed when learning that Aaron's flirting was fake.

The amount of time Dean and Cas spend staring at each other.

Dean canonically having an orgy with Crowley.

A woman saying that she knows when someone's pining for someone else to Dean, just for us to learn that Dean was never in love with Amara.

The set design and script choices that lead to a cross in the background while Dean said "I do." to Cas after he came back to life.

That time when Dean wanted to say something and Cas was like, "It's okay, I heard your prayer." But Dean still looked like he wanted to say something important.

Amara: [about Dean] "I can see inside your heart. Feel the love you feel. Except, it’s cloaked in shame.”

If you want to have a more expansive list, @destiel-is-real-idgaf added to this one quite nicely.
