Before I go to bed tonight I wanna leave all of you with "Grândola, Vila Morena". The song of the Carnation Revolution (25 de Abril) and of the portuguese antifascist movement. I'll also link the wikipedia article below

O Marcel fez muita coisa bem nos últimos anos mas desde a final do campeonato que acho que o voleibol masculino do Benfica precisa de uma mudança de ares

Roberto Merhi's obsession with Sainz being the last Ferrari race winner is so funny to me because that's obviously temporary but you know what isn't? Roberto Merhi having 0 F1 career points. SMOOTH OPERATOOORRRRRR

Stella and Lando both have such an obsession with Max that honestly I think even Mclaren fans should be rooting for Max to win this wdc, it'd make these two Max stans so happy

and people wish this clown would take over at ferrari. spare me lmao

"Obviously, Oscar made some statements while he was in the car," Stella said. "But that's the kind of character that we want to have from our drivers -- they have to make their position very clear. That's what we ask them.
"At the same time, we have to put things in perspective: the perspective of a driver that is in a Formula 1 car with the intensity of it being the first lap. And the perspective that obviously just saw Lando moving on to him, but we know that Lando, in realty, had a contact with Verstappen and oversteered on to Oscar. So we will have good reviews, good conversations."

"In terms of the contact between our two drivers, this contact is, in reality, a consequence of another racing situation that happened between Lando and Verstappen," Stella said. "So definitely, because there was a contact in itself, this will lead to a review and some good conversations. But in the moment, we thought that this contact was more a result of another racing situation, let's say.
"We will see if there's any learning and anything that we need to fine tune in terms of our approach, but I think this will just lead to some good conversations.

"Every time we start our conversations with the drivers, we always remind ourselves, as a premise, this is hard," he said. "Because this is the only matter in which, when you race together as a team, you can't have exactly the same interest for the two drivers, because they want to pursue their aspiration, and this is a foundational principle of the way we are racing at McLaren.
"We want to protect this 'let them race' concept. We know that as soon as you adopt this concept, you face difficulties, and we remind ourselves, but it's within this awareness, self-consciousness, in a way, that then we develop our conversation.

"You need to be thorough, and you need to have integrity in approaching that, and I'm very proud of the way Lando and Oscar have been part of the process so far, because if we have been able to navigate through these, let's say, difficult factors, it's because we have Lando and Oscar involved. They've been just great individuals, great contributors, and that's why it's been successful so far, and definitely we will work hard to make sure this is true for the remainder of the season, and the years ahead, in which we will keep on racing with Lando and Oscar.

What Alex Palou said about Oscar being Seidl's choice not Zak Brown's just makes the whole situation with Daniel and him getting lied to about his contract situation even crazier cause wym Zak Brown did all that over a driver he didn't even want to sign??

Also MotoGP tickets were being sold on the same website so, out of curiosity, I went to check... I found 3 day passes cheaper than MOST TWICE tickets. I'm sorry but that's crazy

jo @pikaclerc.bsky.social · 1d

personally justify paying these prices for. TWICE are incredible, I'm sure people won't leave that concert feeling like they didn't get their money's worth but I just couldn't justify making that purchase for myself, as much as I love them. 3/

jo @pikaclerc.bsky.social · 1d

I saw Ed Sheeran 6 years ago for 80 euros. At the time those were the most expensive concert tickets I had ever gotten and they were GREAT seats. There was only one tier of tickets today lower than 80 euros. Concerts are becoming so expensive and there's only really a couple of artists I could 2/

jo @pikaclerc.bsky.social · 1d

Concert promoters are losing their minds. I was going to buy tickets to see TWICE today and it's not going to be held at the same venue the Eras Tour was but if I were to have bought sort of the equivalent of the tickets I had for Taylor, I would have paid MORE. And I paid a lot for the Eras Tour 1/

My target audience is definitely not on this app but here you go anyway

I was gonna go on a huge rant about these conspiracy theories that Ferrari is trying to screw Charles over by benefitting Lewis and making the car more comfortable for him but honestly I don't have the patience today so here's all I'll say:

A lot of you, and I'm talking to Charles fans, need to get your minds out of 2022. Not everything that goes wrong for Ferrari, or Charles specifically, is a repeat of that season from hell. And it's personally really pissing me off to see people try to claim otherwise as someone who has tried very hard to make it clear for people it was not Charles' fault that he lost that championship at all, it was Ferrari's.

I wish it was the other way around trust me 😭

McLaren’s Papaya Rules have gone rotten

Papaya rules have dominated conversations around McLaren this season, but who have they really benefitted?

Papaya rules are the F1 equivalent of giving tablets to toddlers. You don't wanna do the work of managing your drivers, you're just hoping they do it on their own.

Bem correu muito melhor do que eu pensava que isto ia correr 💀

Agora quem continua a achar que o Mourinho é treinador para o Benfica... Nem sei o que dizer. A gestão das substituições dele quando a equipa estava a morrer e quando ele tem constantemente falado que a equipa está exausta... VERGONHOSO

jo @pikaclerc.bsky.social · 5d

I'm not gonna apologize for anything I posted or said today, I don't feel the need, but I'll apologize to all and any moots that got dragged into messes I was involved in today. I know not everyone likes to be as confrontational as I do, so I know some shit was pretty uncomfortable today. End/

Probably taking a risk posting about this because there might be someone I forgot to block. My god can I even say this without being accused of playing the victim? 🙄 But anyway pretty shitty day on here, I want to thank everyone who knows me and defended me today ❤️. 1/

You know I said today I was gonna change my username to pikabozzi if Charles is ever mean to Bryan again, but I think I'm gonna change my name to "Professional victim, yellow rat's tears" a lot quicker. Thoughts?

where conspiracy theories are forming and harassment of team members just because you think they aren't good at their jobs is becoming normalized. And as much as you can rationalize that it doesn't matter there's no way Ferrari sees it, the comments from Fred to Lewis to Charles very much tell 10/
