You know what's funny? Lando never even properly said that he was a championship contender. The only championship he ever spoke about was the constructors, the F1 media pushed him into this fight.
The way some people act on here you would think he said at some point that he would be champion no questions asked but he hasn't, he was always pessimistic about the gap.
My brand is and always will be that the tax evading millionaires are perfectly capable of taking care of themselves but damn I feel like we are crossing some lines with Lando now. The man can't even open his mouth without fans of almost every driver on the grid starts dogpiling on him. You hear one out of context sentence from an interview and just run with it only to find out that he didn't call Max' win lucky. (But you don't correct your post because why would you, Lando probably deserved the hate for one reason or another right?) You see team orders happen and call him unworthy without considering that every champion on the current grid has benefited from team orders. (But it's OK because Lando is so fucking annoying anyways right?)
Idk if it's because I have been part of many fandoms where things have escalated to the point of no return and that's why I get scared when I see this level of piling on someone but I genuinely feel like we have reached an unreasonable point now.
I’m seeing a lot of people being down on lando. People who say they’re his fans and that they support him.
P6 isn’t bad. Like yeah, it’s not pole but lando has said countless times that’s he’s not comfortable in the car. That’s it’s practically undrivable for him. The fact that he’s been able to do so good in it so far this season is incredible. He’s raising everyone’s expectations and the second he doesn’t perform to your insane standards for him then he’s washed, or not a good driver, or *insert another driver here* is better than him.
I support lando. I think he’s a great driver. If he’s last every single race I’m still going to support him. Yes, I want him to perform well. I want him to be happy with the car, with the team, and he’s just not right now.
This is the 4th race of the season. Upgrades are coming that are supposed to make the drivability better for him. Right now, until those upgrades come and he’s back where he feels (more) comfortable it’s dangerous limitation, and he’s done so good at that so far. He’s the only driver to be on the podium every race.
All these fans counting him out of the season, saying he doesn’t deserve a championship or pointing out others that deserve it more, can leave. If that’s how you treat someone you support I’d hate to see how you treat people you don’t.
Lando is perfectly capable of overtaking tomorrow. I believe in him and if everyone could just have a little bit of faith in him that’d be grand. Give him a little bit of grace rather than thinking that anything less than perfection is a problem.
He’s performing well. He’s not happy with the car or himself, but he’s doing fine. He’s got time to make it up later if something goes wrong.
The season just started so stop crashing out over everything lando does.
Being an adult virgin shouldn’t be thought of negatively, mocked, or inferiorized. Engagement in sexual activity shouldn’t be used as a tool to think of oneself as superior to those who don’t have sex.

Do you think tumblr will ever learn the difference between “I’m defending this person because I agree with them wholeheartedly and I am also like this person” and “I’m defending this person because your behavior is dangerous and you need to stop”
Imma vent about something.
I want to say that I want no one to be harrassed or anything. I don’t want to cause any harm and everyone can think what they want.
Here it goes.
I am so mad that everyone is jumping ship and assuming that Wilbur is the horrible man who abused Shubble.
Does Wilbur share some similarities? Yes. But are they enough to make even a attempt at a conclusion? Fuck no.
We should be focusing on supporting Shubble and helping her get the strength to escape her abuser and finally reveal him, not point fingers at every which way possible.
She told her story to help people get out of similar situations, not to cause anyone to be attacked and harassed.
This is not about Wilbur nor was it ever made to be about him by Shubble. This is about Shubble telling her story and taking power back.
(I won’t even tag Wilbur cause again, this is NOT ABOUT HIM AND WE DON’T KNOW SHIT YET.)
Fucking hell I am so pissed at so many people right now.
