I Really Need To Rant About This Because It Has Been On My Mind These Past Few Days. I’ve Been A Charlos

I really need to rant about this because it has been on my mind these past few days. I’ve been a charlos fan since the beginning of last year when I first got into f1 (and no, it’s not because of dts but because of a couple of friends who made me watch the race). I loved their dynamic on and off the track even if some people say that it’s a pr friendship. However, the spanish gp made me look at the them, their team, and especially their respective fans, differently.

First of all, I want to talk about the team and their response to the “pr disaster” of a thumbnail on their latest video.

I Really Need To Rant About This Because It Has Been On My Mind These Past Few Days. I’ve Been A Charlos

It’s pretty disappointing to think that they first posted this without including Carlos in it despite it being his home race. There was definitely a lot of backlash that happened in the comment section before their pr team decided to change it last minute. However, it’s really sad that some of Charles’ fans are calling out those people who complained saying that they were, “crybabies.” They also mentioned how Charles wasn’t even there in the thumbnail during the 2022 monaco gp. I honestly think that this discourse makes no sense whatsoever because there is a clear distinction between the two instances. I love both, but let’s face it, one driver is the team favorite while the other is not. The thumbnail just adds even more fuel to the fire tbh which I honestly wish the pr team took into account before posting. imo, the complaints of cs fans are completely justified. Second, I want to talk about the post-race interviews where Charles and Carlos aired their thoughts about the race. I think it's understandable and warranted that Charles would get annoyed with what happened, especially since there was damage on his left front wing because of the move made by Carlos. I also get why Carlos was so disappointed because it was his home race and honestly, who wouldn't want to win during their home race? I just do not get why the fans are taking what they say in the heat of the moment to heart. Obviously, they could've worded it better but they were literally interviewed right after the race so tensions are expectedly high. Agree with one side or not, just don't take it personally. It is what is. Third, I want to talk about the fan discourse on social media. Those “extremist” fans on BOTH sides can honestly be so toxic. And I guess this may be normal for any team sport but there should be a limit to what people can say. I have seen a lot of terrible takes online, such as some cs fans wanting cl to dnf which is bad in itself.

BUT, it’s not even as bad as those fake fans that were sending d e a t h t h r e a t s and wanting the driver to be ✨ unalived ✨ just because of a petty fan war.

Like y’all (and I mean both extreme cs and cl fans) got to stop because these are REAL people, you know? They aren’t just fictional people who come back to life after the story ends smh. I honestly doubt that Charles and Carlos themselves would condone these kinds of behavior.

There were even comments such as the one below which is absolutely disgusting and frankly quite misogynistic. We all know that there are a lot of women in motorsports and there are many issues that they have faced which are frequently brought up. “Fans” like these should not be using these kinds of “jokes” to further their agenda.

I Really Need To Rant About This Because It Has Been On My Mind These Past Few Days. I’ve Been A Charlos

Lastly, I know for a fact that team/driver wars will never end since it’s literally built into the sport. I just hope we post things with more tact next time, constructively criticize the actions of the people involved, and remember that these are real people, with real experiences, and real emotions. I also hope that charlos themselves will be able to work better together in their last year of being teammates. ♡

Hello,,

My name is Fatima Alanqar, I am 30 years old, and my husband Bilal Dader is 33. We are parents to five children: Yazan (12), Fadl (11), Zina (10), Rajaa (7), and our baby girl Basma, who is just a year and a half old.

My lovely family

Hello,, My name is Fatima Alanqar, I am 30 years old, an… Fatima Alanqar needs your support for Support Fatima's Family in Gaza After H

We live in Tal AlHawa, Gaza. In the early days of the war, we were forced to flee our home after it was completely destroyed by occupation forces with fire and missiles. Our car was also burned down to a heap of metal, and all our clothes were burned too. We have been displaced 17 times, each time escaping death by a miracle. We walked long distances on foot with our children who struggled to keep up, driven by fear to escape danger.

After years of effort and construction for our house, then one day and one night everything vanished

Hello,,
Hello,,

My children's mental health has been shattered. They have suffered immensely from fear, displacement, and homelessness, with barely enough food and water to feed a small cat. They have endured carrying water over long distances throughout the day, surrounded by destruction, rockets, and shrapnel. They were deprived of continuing their education, despite being top students.

One of those times when we had to sleep in our previously destroyed house, a missile landed on us and, by God’s grace, it did not explode.

Hello,,

My children have been deprived of the food they love and need for their bodies and minds to grow, enduring constant fear and terror day and night for 10 months without any peace or rest. We also contracted many diseases, including hepatitis and skin infections due to the lack of water and hygiene supplies in overcrowded shelters and sometimes in our destroyed home :( . We were also forced to stay completely still for periods ranging from 3 to 7 days due to the ongoing siege, drinking contaminated water out of fear of the tanks around us.

Our car was not spared from the bombing either

Hello,,

The children's rooms were completely burned...

Hello,,

Hello,,

Some members of my family were martyred, and others were injured. Fear, crying, and sadness fill the place.

We once had all the comforts and basic tools for a decent life, but now we have lost everything. We cook our food over open fires despite the exhaustion and heat, and we barely manage to get flour, water, and firewood. Yet we remain resilient in northern Gaza despite the bombing, hunger, and severe shortages of water, medicine, and necessary supplies.

And now, that's all we have

Hello,,

I was even forced to wean my year-and-a-half-old daughter due to the lack of milk :( .

We are displaced and homeless, continuously moving from one place to another until this dreadful war ends.

My heart breaks for her.... :

Hello,,

We are in desperate need of your help. We invite you to contribute to this fund to save my family and provide us with a safe shelter, food, water, and healthcare for all of us. Please share our story with your friends and family to raise awareness and support. Your words and prayers give us the strength to endure these difficult circumstances.

Your donation, no matter how small, can make a big difference in our lives. We rely on your support and standing by us during this tough time. Together, we can restore hope and safety for Fatima and her family.

The Greatest Part Of This Gif Sequence Is Not The Outfits. It's Not The Dancing. It's Not Geralt Trying

The greatest part of this gif sequence is not the outfits. It's not the dancing. It's not Geralt trying to click his heels together and having an impromptu meeting with the ground.

It's Vesemir walking in at the very end looking like, "Yep, I did this. I raised these jerks. I'm responsible for this. Fuck me."

Can I get uhhhhhhhhhhh a fanfic where current Sherlock gets thrown into the past, sometime around where he met John, and he meets himself and is like….damn…..I really lived like this???? And everyone is shook at how different Sherlock is from the future.

Anger

I had a breakdown again earlier today.

Like something hot and red and ugly and just so much hatred with no target to shoot it on. For some reason I thought is this how Jason Todd had felt? Or maybe is this how Bruce Wayne felt once he grew up and realized how on earth does people like Joe Chill can get away with so little and he in that one night, lost everything he knew?

With so much hatred and anger and just this huge hole in your heart that felt more like it was ripped away from you rather than just being taken? Is this how being angry at the world feels like? Angry at everything that has happened? Is this how craving for vengeance feels like?

I remember being told that revenge has a smell and it is sweet, and almost dizzying like an aphrodisiac.

I remember clutching the front of my shirt and felt how stuck my scream felt in my throat and I can’t just scream it out with my brother across the hallway and my sister downstairs.

I can’t do this, I can’t keep this in, I can’t keep on doing this.

I remember a time we were told that the whole family has anger issues.

Dad is a bomb, ticking and ticking with the time always border lining on 0 every time he tries to pushes us too far to the edge and he seems eager for us to push him back in retaliation.

Mom keeps it in until something bad & ugly & stupid & disrespectful happens from us, and there comes the screams and the glares and the disappointment.

My brother’s anger is physical, he hits you and pulls in some punches just to make you hurt the same way he does.

My sister’s anger is physical as well, but in the way it’s childish because still, she is still a child.

More often than not, her anger pushes dad’s clock to 0 as well and that will sometimes reign in Mom’s disappointment and if it isn’t her pushing it to explode, it will be my brother’s idea of rebellious retaliation.

And I’ll stand there.

Just a soldier, standing still in the minefield as the shots keep flying and the bombs kept giving way.

Silence become my defense as it was never really my weapon.

And growing up with the understanding how much power and destruction a bomb can hold, well I know how dangerous a wrath’s path can be.

So, I reign it in. So, I push every single pure, pure anger that threatens to boil to the surface.

My grief sometimes overcome my anger I think, enough so that I forgot that I can be angry sometimes.

My anger, I think, is physical as well.

My anger, I think, is the opposite of who I fights to become.

My anger, I think, is not a bomb, or a silent glare or a bursting scream.

My anger creeps in, my knuckles throb with every poison that rushes through my vein.

I don’t get angry, I don’t, I won’t, I never.

I don’t get angry because if I do, I don’t know how I’ll face the aftermath of it.

I can feel it, when it pulses, when it tries to fight through the restraints. I can feel it when my veins are filled with adrenaline and the want, the need to just, hurt. I can feel it and I know it’s there ‘because I can feel my eyes harden, I can feel my legs muscle constrict with the will to run towards the anger itself, I can feel my grip tightens around on itself ‘because I want to hit and punch and injure and hurt, hurt, hurt.

And I buries it in.

I learn to let out the insults because it soothes the fire but if you’ve been trapping the flames in an oxygen cavity and keep adding to it without ever giving it a chance to see the light of day, a verbal fight does little to calm it.

I learn that after letting out the insults, to give it time, time to turn it into guilt and grief instead.

Dr K thinks that what I’m doing might as well be the equivalent of driving a brake-less car down the hill only to run into an explosion then crashes down into the ocean with nowhere to escape out of the car.

Like letting in the adrenaline rushes through you only to trap everything in and let it consumes you.

I’ve told her that the analogy was exaggerative, I think.

I’ve crashed at the moment now.

I think it’s ironic that I used the rain and the sound of the crashing waves to calm me down.

I hate being angry.

I hate it because it isn’t me but it proves that it’s a primal instinct of mine when I didn’t bother with my mask.

All of us have masks.

I’ve seen Dad used it around his colleagues or when the topic of Grandpa comes up or when Grandma was talking about her time just around the corner.

I’ve seen Mom used it around her ‘friends’, true or not, and I’ve seen it around us when she’s far too tired and she’s far too aware of her greying hair.

I’ve seen my brother using it the most around us, never being able to settle into his skin even with those who he should trust the most.

I’ve seen it with my sister, the way she brushes off any signs of emotional vulnerability other than irritation ‘because she thought everybody would use it as a weapon against her intelligence.

I’ve seen it in the mirror of the 5-star bathroom at school, the one everybody goes to because it’s the only ones that works. Most of the time, anyways.

I’ve seen it on my friends and I’ve seen it crumbles in the anticipation of days leading up to what was the most important event of our lives as high school students back then.

Someone asked me, if I’ve cried it yet, implying if I’ve succumbed to the world-heavy pressure of the future yet. If I’ve sat down and bawled my eyes out as I realized how short on time we always seemed.

I told them, no.

There are a few strays of tears I’ve let past in the days leading up to it but I know if I sat down properly and let it out – I don’t know how much it’ll take for me to stand up again. Or if I’m ever strong enough for it anyways.

I hate grief.

And I hate my anger even more.

And as my vision blurs with the tears in my eyes that I won’t let out, and my knuckles are white as I grip the box holding in the razors tightly – I wish, I wish I never knew how safe and suffocating a mask can feel.

🚨🚨Emergency: Help my family survive and start a new life!!!!!!🙏🙏💓

Hello, my name is Mohammed Abu Zour, a father of three children, I write to you from the heart of Gaza, amidst the rubble of our home that was completely destroyed in the recent bombing. We were forced to flee to the south, where we now live under unbearable conditions.

🚨🚨Emergency: Help My Family Survive And Start A New Life!!!!!!🙏🙏💓

Life here lacks all essentials. We do not have the basic necessities of life, nor the urgent healthcare services that we desperately need. These dire circumstances are particularly severe for my son, who suffers from hepatitis. His condition worsens day by day, and he urgently needs treatment that is not available here. The only hope for his recovery is to receive treatment outside of Gaza.

🚨🚨Emergency: Help My Family Survive And Start A New Life!!!!!!🙏🙏💓

Additionally, my beloved wife Dina is also suffering. She is currently pregnant and suffering from a serious condition known as preeclampsia. This requires specialized medical care and a cesarean section, but there is no hospital here equipped to provide the necessary care. I fear for her life and the life of our unborn baby due to the severe shortage of medical services, the lack of clean and safe food and water, and the absence of a safe and sanitary place to stay.

🚨🚨Emergency: Help My Family Survive And Start A New Life!!!!!!🙏🙏💓

Moreover, my thirteen-year-old son and I endured another ordeal when we were captured by the military. We were subjected to a month of torture. After our release, I carried physical injuries and bruises, while my son suffers from severe psychological trauma as a result of the captivity.

🚨🚨Emergency: Help My Family Survive And Start A New Life!!!!!!🙏🙏💓

Therefore, I appeal to everyone with compassion and humanity to help me and my family leave Gaza through the Rafah border crossing. We urgently need to relocate to a place where we can access the necessary medical care and the safety that we desperately lack here.

🚨🚨Emergency: Help My Family Survive And Start A New Life!!!!!!🙏🙏💓

I extend my deepest gratitude to everyone who will contribute to helping and supporting my family in this ordeal. Your support is the only hope we cling to in these challenging times. ️

So please, if you decide to help, know that I will be immensely grateful and deeply thankful. Every amount, no matter how small or large, is valuable and greatly appreciated, and I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life💕💕

the men and boys are innocent too.

we cry "the innocent women and children" to appeal to the masses, to try and force their sympathy, but the men and boys are innocent too.

I have seen sons crying out for their mothers, their fathers, their siblings. I have seen them break down at the loss of their families. I have seen them cling to their dead and grieve.

I have seen fathers cradle their dead children, seen them kiss their faces and hold their little hands. I have seen them faint with grief when asked to identify the dead. I have seen them carry their sons and daughters. I have seen them fasting to provide what little they can for their families.

I have seen men and boys digging through the rubble with just their bare hands, I have seen them comforting strangers, playing with children, rocking them, hushing them, even if the face of such imminent danger. I have seen them cry, seen them grieve, seen them break down into each other's arms, seen them be selfless, beyond selfless, becoming something I don't have a word for.

I have seen the men who are doctors refuse to leave their patients, even when they have no medicine or supplies to give them, even when they're threatened with bombings. I have seen fathers who have lost all their children pick orphans up into their arms and proclaim them their child so they are not alone. I have seen men and boys digging pets out of the rubble.

the men are innocent too. the men and boys are being hurt and killed too. the men and boys are grieving too. the men and boys are scared too. the men and boys are fighting to save their people too. the men and boys deserve to be fought for too.

This Year While We All Celebrate Pride Month And Celebrate Ourselves As Well As Those Who Came Before

this year while we all celebrate pride month and celebrate ourselves as well as those who came before us and paved the way for us to do so, we must also think of those in gaza, queer or not, who live every day under a brutal occupation and don’t have that same privilege. happy pride, and may we see a free palestine in this lifetime.
