the one thing that’s worth splurging money on is laser hair removal. ladies please. i promise it’s not painful, it’s so much more effective than wax/sugaring and the effect of it is incredible!!! just one year of it and everything will be gone, i promise it’s worth allllll the money!!!
flowers you buy for your friends are better than anything ive ever received from ex to be honest, just got a bit sad :( no one here really buys flowers where im from
me and you both, anonie. i feel you :(
but also to be honest, in my country flowers are very popular. i mean, as someone who lived in europe where giving bouquets and just flowers culture is not that big, in my country it's huge. people give flowers on occassions, without occassions, it's kind of like... you just take flowers with you almost all the time wherever you go for some kind of event. therefore, we have good prices on flowers, we have variety and such pretty bouquets, which also helps a lot.
usually it doesn’t take long for oscar to fall asleep, most of the times he’s in morpheus arms the second his head hits the pillow. but this night is different and even when tiredness succumbs him to sleep, he stays wide awake, alert as he’s never been before. your chest rises and falls steadily; you are probably seeing a very nice dream if smile on your lips is anything to go by. oscar selfishly hopes he is there, in your dream. hopes he is the reason of your smile even in your sleep.
this situation is a bit surreal to him. you know when you waited so long for something to happen, longed for it, ached for it with all your heart - that when it does happen you just kind of stay in complete disbelief? this is what oscar feels watching your sleeping form on his bed. he cautiously reaches out to your hand and his heart stops somewhere in his throat, when your fingers immediately wrap around his. even in your sleep you are choosing to hold on to him. even in your sleep you gravitate towards him, your body inclined to his side more - how can he sleep if you are like that? how is he supposed to close his eyes and miss this view? how can he stop thinking of what it means to both of you?
he spent whole night lost in his thoughts, in assumptions that when sunlight illuminates your room, oscar only blinks in surprise, shocked by how quickly the time passed. you frown a little at the brightness and his first instinct is to stand up and close the blinds but that would require letting go of your hand and he hesitates, looking at your joined fingers. he doesn’t like it, the whole letting go thing. if he could, oscar would have held your hands all the time; until he’d have memorized all the little bumps and tiny scars on your skin, until he’d be able to recoginize your hand from the million others. piastri gently caresses your skin with his thumb and thinks he can write thousands of poems on this feeling, on the tenderness of your skin, on the warmth of your palm, on how your fingers fill the slots between his so perfectly well-
‘oscar?’ you mumble, squinting a little. your voice is hoarse from the sleep and you clear it out, trying again: 'oscar?’
'i’m here,’ he answers quietly. with his free hand he reaches out and smoothes your hair lovingly. 'it’s too early, baby, go back to sleep.’
it seems like you have other plans, cause you turn around and move, making him let go of your hand. he thinks it’s a bit humilating how he instantly misses the feel of it. is it okay to be so..so into you? doesn’t that make him weak? less of a man if he is that whipped? sometimes he starts thinking about it but then you do something - anything at all - like smile at him or kiss him and these thoughts fly out of the window. he’d gladly be considered weak if it means he can have you like that.
'why are you awake?’ you grumble, fighting to get your legs out of the blanket. oscar's heart stammers as you move close, closer - until you are practically cuddled up to his side. 'have you even slept?’
'i-’ he starts and promptly forgets all the words when you lift your leg and put it on top of his like it’s the most natural thing in the world. 'um.’
lack of answer makes you look up and squint at him. you take a good look of his too awake eyes and a growing suspicion starts to form in your head: 'you have slept this night, haven’t you? don’t tell me that you were awake all this time.’ when oscar only looks at you sheepishly, you groan loudly: 'oh my god, osc, why? were you not comfortable? is my mattress too hard? i’m so sorr-’
'no,’ he instantly interrupts, gathering you in his arms. usually he’s hesitant with his affections towards you, but nothing makes him act bold as you thinking that you did something wrong or the need to calm you down. 'no-no, baby, i just had a lot on my mind. don’t be sorry.’
pet name and his cuddles make you smile and you nuzzle your head into his chest, hearing his steady heartbeat underneath. 'a lot on your mind?’ you yawn, stubbornly trying to shake off remnants of your dreams. 'what could possibly have you staying up all night?’
with you in his arms, it’s easier to be honest, easier to shake off the mask and just be himself. he leans in, places small kiss on top of your head and wraps his arms around you tighter. 'i was thinking of you,’ he replies sincerely, having nothing to hide.
he can tell that you’re trying to look up but find it hard to do so because of the angle, so he moves you both until you’re laying side to side, facing each other. sleep is not gone from your eyes and he coos at the way you try to stay present for him. 'is that what i do to you? make you lose your sleep, hm?’
it’s meant to be a joke or at least a teasing, but oscar replies seriously, tucking one hair strand behind your ear: ’you don’t know half of the things you do to me.’
at that your eyes fly open, more awake than they’ve been before. oscar meets your eyes readily, holding eye contact for as long as you need to understand the meaning behind his words. he can tell that you are searching for something and he hopes you find there his desire to wake up like that every day. to have these kind of mornings with you forever. to have the opportunity to hold you like this, to not sleep because he’s too busy staring at you and coming with terms that he can now have this. these nights, these mornings - he can now have them al.
'good things, i hope?’ you ask, cuddling closer until tips of your noses touch.
oscar huffs, smiling. 'the best things, babe.’
you smile, content. 'now can we go back to sleep? let’s wake up at a normal time like normal people do.’ oscar nods, reaching out for the blanket to cover you both, when you stop him: 'no, too hot, leave it.’
'oh,’ oscar drops the blanket and also starts to extract himself from your arms, thinking that hugging would also make you uncomfortable in this temperature, but you stop him here as well, frowning. 'you said it’s too hot-’
'for the blanket, but not for you,’ it’s clear that you are losing patience with him not getting what you want and you wanting to sleep. 'c'mon, hold me close, hug me.’ when he does as instructed you sigh, satisfied. 'that’s it. and never let go.’
oscar tighens his hold on you, swallowing hard. if only you knew that given the chance, he’d never let you go. he kisses your forehead and mutters: 'i won’t. sleep tight, babe. i’ll wake you up for the breakfast.’
you don’t reply, already dead to the world and he only chuckles affectionately. 'i love you,’ he whispers into your hair before finally also closing his eyes and succumbing into the sleep.

No joke you guys NEED to get more comfortable blocking people. No more insulting people in public over different blorbo opinions no more making 2k long posts on how whatever ship you don't like shouldn't exist we've grown past that shit. Consistent posts about shit that make you uncomfortable? Block. Rancid blorbo opinions? Block. Is mildly annoying in your replies? Block. Pisses you off for reasons so petty you could never admit it publicly? Block. YOUR mental health will improve from not being upset 24/7, THEIR mental health will not be at risk of you lashing out because you happened to catch their posts on a bad day, and EVERYONE ELSE will benefit from not seeing the most embarrassing arguments known to man on their dash. "Oooh but they didn't deserve it-" dude you're presumably running a personal blog as a hobby not a public service. Who fucking cares.
the best thing about lando is every facet of his personality is entirely sincere. he IS that sweetheart family boy who loves kids and dogs. he IS a feral horny gremlin who wiggles and bounces around to the beat floating between beautiful people. he IS a calculating competitive freak of a professional racing driver. anyone who tries to simplify him into one thing will always read him wrong, because he contains multitudes
not sure what's wrong but i haven't been reading any new fics lately...mostly just writing my own and re-reading my most beloved stuff and on this topic i want to give a massive shoutout to amazing Middle_Ans!! i'm not sure if this writer is on tumblr, but if they are - someone please tag them here :') the most incredible gewis works i've ever read. every single story is a gem, i'm so in love, if you're a gewis fan then their stories are a must read!!
this is going to sound like such a little sibling ass take but i genuinely believe that being a little bit annoying is actually a greater sign of maturity and self awareness than being universally likeable and on good terms with everyone
if some people find me annoying and can't stand me because of how i think and act then that means i'm a fully realized human being with my own personality and opinions and free will and not just a reflective surface for other people's desires, which is in fact a good thing despite what people who want you to just be a reflection of their own opinions and desires will tell you, and why being considered "cringe" or whatever doesn't bother me at all
also it's really funny when you're confident enough in yourself to know that people not liking you isn't always a sign that you're the problem. like there's something undeniably hilarious about being aware your mere existence has the power to piss someone off and ruin their day and i recommend embracing it.
pato saying that he is not interested in f1 after having his indy win would’ve been cute if i didn’t remember him enabling hate on lando in mexico. but i do remember and i’m very petty, so i’m more than happy that we won’t see him in any f1 related things, that he before tried so hard to be a part of, only to realize that it’s never going to happen and then he instantly changed his whole narrative on it
Ooo can I just say that I agree with your addition to that post about 2025 lando vs 2026 lando? I'm not about to get caught up in the drama, but the way people have changed their tune so drastically from last year is rubbing me the wrong way. Of course, people are free to like or not like any driver they want for whatever reason they choose, but i feel like the thing that has changed the most this year isn't lando, its how people choose to interpret him. I'm willing to bet my house that the same things people are 'praising' lando for this year, would cause an uproar in 25. In fact, my first instinct whenever lando is quoted, is still to go 'oh great, how are people going to willfully misinterpret him this time'. To me, lando is still the same guy i started supporting in 2019. He's self-critical when he feels he should've done a better job, he's team-minded, he's funny and he doesn't take himself too seriously. I do think it was a relief for him to bag the championship, obviously (despite his terrible luck), and that his confidence has grown, which is a lovely thing to witness. But to pretend he's suddenly got a whole new personality? In lando's words: delusional.

OH MY GOD I LOVE YOUUUU!!!! i found myself so annoying with adding to this post :((( but i couldn't NOT do it, you know??
and 1000% agree with everything you wrote, this whole 'lando CHANGED' is rubbing me off in such a wrong way cause it is mostly said by people who were either never his fans or worse - were his haters. and now suddenly they find him 'more whimsical' and 'funnier' like please what are you on about!!
