After only seeing a few clips of their relationship I genuinely think there's a world where Felipe Massa and Rob Smedley are happily married. Like those two were in LOVE love.

"When you’re in a fight as bitter and as important as this one, against an enemy, so much bigger, so much stronger than you - well. To find out that you have a friend you never knew existed - It’s the best thing in the world."

Pride (2014) dir. Matthew Warchus

if you like motorsports, can you drive and do you enjoy it?

can drive, enjoy driving

can drive, don’t enjoy driving

can’t drive, want to drive

can’t drive, don’t want to drive

Voting ended onMay 31

due to the growing epidemic i’ve noticed of people not liking to drive and/or refusing to learn to drive (if they are circumstantially able) i want to see how that translates in the motorsport fandom. no nuance ie can’t drive because there’s good public transport in my city.

People who are good at stuff are not always good at teaching that stuff to others. Often, in fact, as someone becomes an expert at something, they have trouble viewing the first steps from the metaphorical seventh floor landing.

Try reaching a four-year-old to read “cat” or what 2+2 is and you’ll realize that things that you “just do” are actually a series of difficult steps for a beginner. In much the same way, experts “just do” play an instrument, play a sport, solve an equation, or create art.

Some of the worst teachers I ever had were geniuses, but they had trouble getting into the minds of their students, much like the xkcd comic (“silicate chemistry is second nature to us…”). Teaching is a skill; in fact, it’s a dozen skills stacked on top of each other. Thank your local educator today: the current administration continues to underfund education and the current society underappreciates teaching as a skill (and I haven’t even touched on the classroom management, lesson planning, and social skills required by most educators).

My mama works at an elementary school and one of the main hurdles they have with student teachers is they've been taught how to teach by college professors who have not actually interacted with a child in decades. So these young adults are coming in theoretically knowing how to teach but actually have no idea how to get on the level of an 8 year old and connect with them meaningfully. Yeah, teaching is so many skills and it kind of scares me that some education students are not adequately prepared or given the tools to build those skills.
