Stella Sirius

Italian | 32 | she/her. I voted flour on the vanilla extract Tumblr Poll of 2023. My blog for personal art and/or writing, and all my obsessions - I go by phases. Staples are nature stuff, Jane Austen, The Old Guard, F1(tier list for drivers and teams) and Italians in sports. Free to take a look.

was outside earlier and a bird Came Up, squatted down, fluttered it’s wings at me and opened its mouth like a hatchling begging for food (it was a grown female) so I went and checked the seed cube in the feeder and the thing was completely covered in mold. this is one of the weirdest things that’s ever happened to me. how did she know im the one in charge of the birdseed. How Did She Know To Pantomime Hunger At Me. Hello.

i have spent my afternoon confusedly getting dressed, driving to the store, purchasing a new seed block, driving home, washing the cage, and getting the feeder set back up. i don’t take this much care for my Own nutrition. ive been bullied into a grocery store run by a tufted titmouse. i feel so loved

F1 Academy Graduates: Where Are They Now?

Forgive Me My Salt // Nothing New // If— // The Summer Day // Class of 2013 // I Know the End // The Second Coming // I Dreamed A Dream // The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock

a small rant below :)

i think the topic of whether f1a is successful or not is such a nuanced topic because you can argue that it isn't doing enough to actually help women progress through the single-seater ladder and towards f1 (abbi is the only one in this list that is still racing single seater and shes in gb3)

it realistically only gives them a platform and visibility they didnt have before and that's not inherently a bad thing, the visibility, the exposure, the opportunities and the fact that young girls can actually look at a female driver and see themselves in motorsport are all incredibly important. but visibility only gets you so far.

it also makes you question if the teams genuinely care about their f1a driver cause most of them are dropped as soon as they graduate/leave especially now with maya's situation; did ferrari ever care? did they ever see her a driver they wanted to develop long term or did they just sign her so they dont get a bad rep? and mind you maya finished 2025 in 2nd and she cant get funding, imagine the situation for rest of them

right now f1a isnt functioning as a ladder but just a platform. and it risks becoming the highest level women are expected to reach rather than the place that helps them reach higher levels in single seaters.

a lot of them came into f1a and left unchanged, a lot of them went back to where they were before. and thats not necessarily a bad thing because there is absolutely nothing wrong with going into rallying or endurance racing or any other discipline. f1 isnt the pinnacle of racing and these women can have incredibly successful careers outside of single seaters.

but it becomes a problem a lot them came into f1a with the dream of making it into f1 (or just to move up single seater in general). f1a can be a good thing and still not be enough.

i wish people in fandom spaces wouldn't couch the (alleged) crimes of creators in such vague terms. "Gaiman is controversial right now" NO, Gaiman has been accused of rape by several women. "DC probably won't reprint a lot of 90s green lantern because Gerard Jones is problematic." NO, Gerard Jones was convicted of possession of child pornography. "controversial" and "problematic" do not accurately convey what is going on remotely and if anything play down what these people have done.

Crested Caracara being allopreened by two Black Vultures! This is such an interesting behavior and one that's typically one-way (preening by vultures to caracara). Here you can see the caracara either attempting to reciprocate but getting rebuffed by both vultures, or telling them to stop for now.

I'll never get over how Ayrton's lowest moment with him desperately spinning that "if you no longer go for a gap" line while fully aware he's lying, somehow got preserved and elevated to iconic status

I think this moment really highlights how much more complicated he was than his media image. and how his philosophy and presentation can outweigh literal facts in people's eyes

Male hummingbird comparison time! Broad-tailed vs Rufous

I gotta say I love how the Rufous flew away backwards compared to the Broad-tailed. Just yeets himself back and then forward
