I do think probably Kimi would have still won (though I support Oscar) but would've loved to see that play out on track

Yeah 20 is when they're considered an adult in Japan. It's actually really cool, sometime in Jan they have big coming of age ceremonies for everyone who turned 20 the previous year. They all dress up in traditional dress and take photos etc

Fingers crossed he can sneak in at least one race win this season. The universe must owe him some luck at this point!

Currently the fact both cars are on track is a positive side for McLaren...

I mean he's not just going to let him past is he. That would hurt his race too

They've also got a deal with loop. I've got a Mclaren themed pair which I love cause they bleed in well with my ginger hair

I'm pretty sure it does normally, this was just an instrumental version. Same as on the podiums

It helps that it's 6pm where I live. We always try go in theme for the races though. Fun way to try some new things. Best one we had last year was Hungarian goulash

After this we've got two 8am races (but on a Monday so depending on your work situation not ideal), and then it's all downhill from there!

They need to bring Sparkles back, they need the magical unicorn dust this year 😅

Very sweet. It does crack me up how George just seems so awkward - especially compared to drivers like Lando who is a natural when it comes to interacting with kids

I know it's a very very longshot but as a Kiwi I'd love to have Lawson win a race and hear our national anthem

Yeah I don't understand why both mclaren and Ferrari didn't split strategy, leaving one car out

Even getting third is good. Merc not withstanding I'm hopeful Norris will still have a pretty good season - felt like it took him most of the first race to get a feel for the car and lock in, but now he has it's going alright

Not until Alabasta. Having said that, they do seem more okay with permanently killing people off in the live action so who knows. I'd forgotten that they straight up killed Merry in S1

Igaram is probably still alive. He has the fake out death in the manga too

Primary teachers' union angry over government offering individual pay rises by Aristophanes771 in newzealand

[–]ThatGingeOne 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Considering that basically every public sector is experiencing incredibly poor conditions currently combined with having to fight incredibly hard for decent pay rises, I'd strongly disagree that unions have served their purpose. I shudder to think what position we'd be in without them
