before we collectively move on to thinking about austin, i need a moment for russell radio

because when i listened to george's singapore radio, i immediately noticed that 1) george was a little bit quiet and 2) marcus was being very nice to him. which made sense because 1) george wasn't really under pressure so there wasn't much to talk about, and 2) he was driving really well

but then towards the end of the race (lap 57), george says "remember what we spoke about with aleix" and marcus immediately starts telling him he's doing a good job more ("you're doing a really good job here, george, just say focused" + "this is a really good job" + "i know it's hard, but you're doing a great job out there") and it made me think of qatar 2023 when he said he needed to ask marcus for encouragement to take his mind off how bad he was feeling, and singapore 2024 when he asked for encouragement on the radio when he was feeling unwell and it makes me feel very tender to think about george, aleix and marcus making a little plan for marcus to give george extra praise in case he was struggling

i love when they ask f1 drivers about their personal taste. other types of celebrities will try to seem tasteful and sexy but none of these men know literally anything and furthermore they dont know that they dont know. so they'll be like my favourite movie is frozen 2 and my favourite song is closer by the chainsmokers please write that down in vogue

saw an absolutely hilarious animal crossing theory that i now 100% accept and it’s that in the animal crossing world, humans are going extinct, and so all the animals have locked you in an elaborate zoo enclosure and are trying to give you enrichment. and that’s why they give you infinite pointless tasks, hide money in trees and rocks, invented debt that doesnt matter etc. it’s why they always act so happy to see you even after you raze the entire island, relocate their houses twice, and always act so pleased about your choices no matter what. it’s all to keep their little endangered human healthy and enriched. and thinking of it this way has genuinely improved my experience of the game

oh my god it’s laika day everyone drop what you’re doing… we honour a little dog who was sent up into space 65 years ago today. she was found as a three year old stray mongrel wandering the streets of moscow. her ability to endure hardy conditions got her chosen as the candidate for a journey she was never meant to survive. she passed away seven hours after liftoff. I hope she died dreaming of chasing rabbits up in the stars I love u laika forever and ever

Never forget, she was loved

She was not killed as an act of cruelty, or simply neglected. People cared about her, and the many space dogs who survived proves it

She was loved

great ritual for honoring Laika's memory (from another thread)

Sorry, but sending a living animal on a literal fucking death mission is not a loving act. Humanity DID NOT NEED TO GO TO SPACE! This little experiment did not save human lives. Laika did not need to die and she was NOT loved enough.

Laika didn’t ‘pass away,’ she died a horrible and slow death of overheating while under extreme stress, something the scientists who sent her to die knew was likely to happen.

After the Soviet Union had lied about it for years in their propaganda, in 2002, Russian scientist Dimitri Malashenkov revealed that Laika had survived only about five to seven hours after liftoff before dying of overheating and panic. It was belatedly made known that Laika’s pulse rate tripled during takeoff and only came down somewhat during weightlessness.

This wasn’t a test of how the body responds to overheating in space that would at least yield useful data to prevent future deaths. Laika didn't ensure the survival of future dogs, who had to endure the same stress. This happened because The Soviet scientists had insufficient time to perfect life-support systems, due to political pressure to launch in time for the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution. That is what she died for.

You don’t do that to an animal who you love. This was not a noble sacrifice worthy of celebration, it was an unimaginably stressed out dog cruelly sent to her death because her captors believed that animals are expendable, and that it is perfectly acceptable for them to suffer in order to serve frivolous human interests. A sentiment that many of you apparently still agree with.
