The São Paulo Grand Prix has just ended, and honestly, where to even start?

For starters, I’m so unbelievably proud of Kimi who has just scored his second podium win and in his rookie season no less. P3 in Montreal and now P2 in São Paulo. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if he really had been possessed by Ayrton Senna’s spirit after visiting his grave. The rookies this year have simply been absolutely dominating on track.

Max on the other hand, started from the pit lane and still managed to clawing his way to P3. Truly a masterclass performance. Very reminiscent of last year when he plowed from P17 to P1 on the very same interlagos circuit. Absolutely legendary. Whether this season ends with his fifth WDC or not his performance is once again proving, why he’s one of the most talented drivers in Formula One history.

Ferrari, meanwhile, in their typical fashion had another classic double DNF. It’s so frustrating yet unfortunately almost predictable; the results are consistently disappointing to see, especially from two very talented drivers, all as a result of a team that is clearly unable to match the car and strategy to their pilots talent.


And at McLaren well, favoritism for Lando strikes again, ruining Oscar’s chances at a WDC. But hey, what else is new?

the leftist rebranding of anti-autism ableism and cultural shift in conservatism

been taking a break from tumblr and have been watching some video essays, people are talking about how there’s a sudden shift in conservatism and i noticed. such as the “old money/quiet luxury” style (if you go to any store everything is beige now, “zara ski” drama etc.) , people removing their tattoos, the calling gnc girls “pick mes” or even just girls who are feminine but don’t wear makeup.

anyway i think i’ve noticed something similar in the autism community. i’m seeing a lot of takes such as autism $peaks is good actually, lsn/late diagnosed people are whiny/quirky white girls on tiktok, autistic people get yelled at for relating to a post with their own story despite that being a literal autism symptom. people are being shamed for not having “masculine” special interests, i’ve seen posts making fun of ppl who can’t do small talk and they were seemingly leftist and autistic themselves!

the same is being done to adhd, despite the fact that it can be extremely disabling depending on the severity. like autism. this all in leftist spaces, people saying adhd people don’t have it bad enough/aren’t really disabled, but (i’m not american so correct me if i’m wrong here) who are the wellness camps getting proposed for?

i’ve seen plenty of “other autistic people have it worse than you”, “aba is good actually” that sounds like the stuff that would come out of autism parents or gossip forums. and sometimes i’ve seen t*rfs spouting this same rhetoric. i wonder if the shift in conservatism is the reason for all this phenomenon. what are your thoughts?

edit: i think there’s a sexist component too. because this all started happening as soon as women started getting diagnosed more 🤔

a few years ago i distinctly remember thinking “man i wish there were like. fem centered equivalents to those games that center male audiences but not quite like shoujo. keep the degeneracy from those types of series but delegate it to the men”

i wanna take that one horse girl racing game and gender bend it. I liked the idea too much for the world building . also like how come the cool animal human races are always only girls like give me men. women who are the protagonists and act as trainers hell yeah

i story boarded a comic for that once but then i forgot that it was supposed to be surface level yandere stuff

i then found myself making a story about discrimination in sports and people ruining others successes out of jealousy and admiration so i decided to not let myself touch my degenerate anime inspired ideas

just saw a "i can't be homophobic cause phobia means fear and i'm not afraid of gay people" comment in the wild. just pure 2004 era dipshittery.
