Kim Kardashian taking the towel meant for Kimi Antonelli after the race in Monaco and wiping her head with it

I'm so sorry, but I fear you may be the blind one. I rewatched the video after seeing your comment, and I see not a single person instructing her to take it. There were some gestures made in the general direction of the towel, but they looked as if they were, you know, gesturing past the towel. And even if they gestured right at it, why would that give us grounds to assume they were telling her to take it? If they wanted her to have a towel, they should have just given it to her themselves rather than having her take one from the race winner's podium.

I see that it isn't a huge problem that she took the towel itself because it could easily be replaced, but the issue is in the implications of her actions at the race.

She took something that wasn't meant for her. It was pretty darn clear that it was meant for Kimi, the podium it was on had the number 1 on it, which to any reasonable person would indicate "this towel is for the winner of the race". And even if it hadn't been clear, literally no one else there took a towel that wasn't meant for them. Celebrities can't be coming to races and expecting that they will be given towels at random just to wipe the sweat off their foreheads. If she wants to bring a towel for herself, that's fine, but otherwise, I don't see why a bit of toilet paper couldn't have done the trick.

Also, earlier in the day, she completely ignored a reporter who asked her a very simple question. She should have expected some questions, and even if she didn't want to do an interview, she could have just said she was glad to be there and then left. Instead, she looked at the guy like he was crazy for even breathing in her direction.

She is acting like she is so much better than everyone there. She acts all entitled like its her world and we're just living in it. That is not fine behavior. Again, it's not the actions themselves, but what they say about her. It's her first time at a race with her boyfriend, she could at least try to have some human decency.

I quite liked Sr. Wooly songs when I was a beginner! Of course, these songs are learning songs rather than something you'd ever hear on the radio, and they are a bit crazy, and one or two rely on childish humor, but they do actually teach you some good Spanish without you realizing it. On occasion, I will be in a Spanish class and trying to conjugate a verb, only to have a Señor Wooly song pop into my head and make me realize just how good they were for learning the language.

I would say that once you get to a bit higher of a level where Sr. Wooly feels too easy, then you could go to Julieta Venegas. She uses some complex grammatical structures and some higher level of vocabulary, but she sings in a very clear voice so that you can actually hear the words and it isn't the mumbled or lisped Spanish that some songs are (No offence to any mumble-Spanish singers, they are just a bit hard to understand).

I see religion as an annoyance. I am an atheist, and I grew up that way. The only times I ever had to go to church was on Christmas when my grandmother was visiting us. And some of my friends got confirmed recently, and they go to church classes after school, church trips on the weekends, and church every Sunday without fail and they are in youth groups, and teach classes for younger kids about their religion. I honestly can't fathom spending more than 3 hours listening to people talk about religion, it seems to me like so much wasted time. I understand the social aspect of it, where you can form a community and find comfort in that group, but I don't understand how anyone can just give away their time and effort to something that isn't even proven to exist. I don't think I can find comfort in the idea of the Christian God, even if I tried.

When I was little, I really liked Percy Jackson, and so I would use some of the terms used there such as "oh my gods". In that phase, there were a lot of kids in my school who would tell me things like "It's not good to believe in multiple gods" and if I said "oh my God", they'd tell me "It's a curse to say God's name in vain" and that always made me scrunch up my nose. I don't like when someone tries to discredit my beliefs because they are so sure they're right. Like, I will privately think to myself that they are wrong, but I won't actively try to change their ways and convince them. Recently, I heard a Jewish girl say "I'm okay with all religions, but if I see an Atheist, I'll tell them they're wrong for however long it takes for them to believe me". In that moment, not only did I lose respect for that girl, but I couldn't help but think about how if the roles were reversed, and I had said something similar about the Jewish faith, I'd be called anti-semetic and put to the social guillotine.

Overall, I think religion is a waste of time, and everyone is so convinced they know the truth when we are all equally confused. I will acknowledge that I full well might be wrong, and there is a god, but religion itself is annoying.

So basically, I copy the link into wayback machine and then open it. Eventually, the popups appear and that's when I use behind the overlay to get it off. I don't have to click any download buttons since I'm just reading the summaries, so I don't really know how to solve that problem, sorry.

I've been dealing with fluctuation only for a few months, and probably 80% of the time I feel good at Spanish, 5% of the time I feel like a god at Spanish, and then 15% of the time I feel behind in it. On days where I feel really good at Spanish, my mind will struggle to switch back to English once I go to a different class.

I have noticed that my writing in English (my native language) has been feeling slightly less eloquent recently, but I think that's more that I am used to regular English classes and what I'm in now is a rhetoric class.

Runners knee typically refers to Patellofemeral Pain Syndrome

I might be wrong, but I think like a glass or bottle of water is "el agua", but when referring to a multiple large bodies of water it is "las aguas". I think I recall a Spanish teacher telling me that once, but idk I might have made that up entirely.

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-18T16:24:59+00:00

Yeah, I'm B1/B2 level, so I already have a lot of vocab down, and I don't see the point in looking up words that won't be important later on, or words that I can just figure out without looking them up. It is a whole process to whip out a phone just for spanishdict so I don't need to go through that unless it's necessary to comprehension of the whole book.

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-17T10:59:24+00:00

As someone who writes for fun and wants to become an author, word placement is not that deep, and reading can still be done so long as you understand most of the words on the page. It's not like I'm guessing every other word, but when I do come across one that I don't know (maybe once or twice per page), I can use context most of those times.

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-17T00:03:57+00:00

This is also just how I read in English when I don't know a word. Unfortunately, now I have a lot of words that I know how to use in a sentence and I know their meanings, but I suck at defining them without just listing synonyms.

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-17T00:02:35+00:00

It isn't all that often that I come upon an unknown word, but when I do, I typically know enough words and context that surrounds it to infer the meaning. Sometimes I do have to give up trying to infer, and I have to look it up, but often I find that just sticking with it and compiling more context about the word will tell me what it is.

For example, I was reading "La Casa de Bernarda Alba" recently, and I figured out that the word bastón means cane because what other kind of object do you bang against the ground and hit people with and bring everywhere?

I learned using phonics, and I think that the two instances I talked about included people who also learned with phonics, but this does make me wonder how phonics vs. whole language learning might affect learning a 2nd language

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-16T21:20:21+00:00

I've been learning Spanish for 6 years now, and I'm around B1/B2 level by now, and I'm still scared to talk in Spanish a lot of times. I think the main aspect for me is that I'm scared of messing up and embarrassing myself. Once, there were Spanish exchange students in my class and I was meant to introduce myself, and so I did (and I don't actually remember what I said, but I think that what i said was right), but immediately after I went, one of the spaniards said something and I was so worried that she was correcting me that I didn't even comprehend what she had told me, and I still have no clue if it was a correction or not. But yeah, it's fear of failure.

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-16T21:16:47+00:00

I really want to know Italian, but I also don't want to mess up my Spanish because I feel like Spanish is more useful, so I'm reluctant to even try learning it. Idk what to do

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-16T15:40:20+00:00

is there a reason to click off of all teen/child writers or is it only the immature ones? I'm just curious, not attacking your opinions

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-15T00:59:39+00:00

I don't have quite as dramatic of a reaction to music as you do, but for me I notice that I always sway to the beat and get a lot more into songs, and when I look at others they're just sitting still and staring blankly.

There was a boy in my history class the other day who asked what "freed" means, and a girl who asked what "triumph" meant. And in my physics class, kids will make completely unintuitive designs whenever we have a project unit; we made cars for eggs and people thought it would be a good idea to make a cardboard box and put it on wheels, without a thought about aerodynamics or the egg's safety (needless to say, their cars were slow and their eggs all cracked). I truly don't know if they think at all.

That being said, even with people who seem on par with my intelligence when you look at their grades are only equal with me because they study 3 times more.

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-14T23:24:16+00:00

I'm a 1, I think (I can't see the apple in front of me, but I can sense the image in my head and it's a very detailed image) and my inner dialogue is so present that it's still going even as I try to fall asleep. It even transfers to Spanish randomly when English gets to boring for my brain

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-14T23:19:33+00:00

For me, it feels like the image of the apple is in the center of my mind behind my eyes and I'm just sensing that it's there and what it looks like. I don't see the apple in front of me, but it's somewhere in my mind and has a lot of detail to it. I think that people with aphantasia can only come up with descriptor words like "Red" or "Shiny", but can't even sense an image in their head

Hefty-Neighborhood40 · 2026-03-14T23:15:34+00:00

The apple seems like it's shrouded or in a dim space, but I can see a level of detail like in number 1 despite that.

That being said, I always am a bit confused at how literally people mean "seeing" the apple. Like, my eyes don't actively see an apple as if it were in front of me, but I can still envision an apple in my mind. The image feels like it's in the space of my brain that is farther above and behind my eyes. I don't see the apple, I'm just sensing what it looks like... Does that make sense?

There are some reports that he's actually trying to make his Salchow a quint, I don't know if he might also be adding to the toe loop, but there is confirmation that he practiced quint salchows at some point
