GET A GRIP. Seriously

I find this subreddit difficult to tolerate sometimes. The slightest thing that goes wrong on strategy for Lewis for example is met with a barrage of rage here. People acting like its an actual crime, labelling Ferrari a "disgrace", or a "joke".

The thought process behind pitting Lewis was perfectly rational, unfortunately it didn't pan out. Had the race restarted, Lewis would have gotten P2 on the road, whereas if he didnt stop then he would have probably been overtaken by Russell who had fresher tyres as a result of that extra stop he made due to the slow puncture. As we all saw the Safety car was left out and a system glitch prevented the restart. That is *not* the fault of Ferrari.

Lewis still got a podium and due to Kimi no-scoring, it means Lewis has closed the gap to just over 30 points in the championship and here we have people posting so much utter bullshit about how Ferrari fucked up and apparently cost him the win?! Honestly, it's embarassing to be part of the same fandom with a lot of you, the way you act. If anything you should be praising the team for developing a car that is moving closer and closer to Mercedes and is in a place that is genuinely in with a chance to win at most circuits now, albeit still a little behind Mercs.

Time to get a grip and realise not everything will go your way. Lewis has had more success than anyone else in the history of the sport and here we are bitching and whinging over basically nothing.

Gemini says this Regice is the Jackpot

As AI often makes mistakes (as I often find asking it for help), maybe it is wrong. What do you think - is this worth training?

Anyone else feel frustrated over slow releases?

So, I have a reasonably large collection of 1:18 F1 cars spanning over the years of 1985 to 2025, and it always felt that something was releasing soon to look forward to.

​

Now, it just seems like forever until something comes out.

​

My collection has focused of the WDCs whilst picking up Senna, Schumacher and Hamilton cars. I also have picked up the odd car that I liked, such as Norris' 24 Miami win.

​

Anyway, I am still waiting for the Hamilton 2024 AD special from Minichamps as well as waiting for the Norris 2025 cars to release. Im also hoping for re-releases to fill the holes in my collection, such as the 92 Senna McLaren and the 90s Schumacher Ferraris.

​

I just feel that, the releases have slowed down massively the last few years, outside of Max's Japan 25 special and Lewis' 2025 car which are guaranteed sellers so rushed out, theres been barely anything it feels like. Maybe it's just me, or is it?

Cynthia almost broke me, but we pulled through.

Apologies for the dodgy pic.

All the team were between 65 and 71.

Handled the Elite Four pretty well, but Cynthia was a complete different beast. Got demolished a number of times.

After a few TMs, we just about got over the line thanks to some of my team enduring a OHKO because they loved me.

Onwards now to filling the national dex!!

Anyone free on BDSP to trade my Graveler and Kadabra and return them to me?

Hey y'all

None of my IRL friends have these games. Is there anyone who wouldn't mind helping me out to get these evolved?

I would be very appreciative!

Thanks

Had my first near crash and I feel awful

Hi all,

Ive been driving for over 10 years now and ive just had my first near crash and it would have been my fault. This comes as a shock to me as I am typically over cautious when behind the wheel, always leave a good distance to the car infront snd never speed for example. So when the following happened I feel just utter rubbish for it.

As part of my commute, I have to pull out of a side street on to the far side of a busy main road in which you have limited oppertunities to do so outside of a pedestrian pressing the button on a nearby crossing. At 7am there aren't that many around really to do so. In this particular scenario, the traffic coming from the left had cleared up and the traffic from the right which had been clear was on its way. It was only a handful of vehicles and the front most car was indicating to turn in to my side street. Traffic coming from the right is over two lanes, which is key in this instance, as I check to make sure if I pull out there's no car behind the one turning in that is going straight on. There is, but they are far enough behind for me to get out over to the other side of the road with time to spare. I waited to make sure the car that was indicating was actually slowing down and turning in before making my move.

What I didn't see was another car, the same colour as the one turning in but much smaller, which was in the second lane. Luckily I noticed it was I was pulling out so had plenty of time to break but they were on the horn in sheer fury. I understand why, and it was my fault. From my perspective, the car must have been so perfectly aligned with the car that was turning in from my viewpoint which is why I couldn't see it. Even when the car turning in was slowing down the car was hidden, as I was watching the entire time. The car that beeped probably assumed I just pulled out without looking which is half true, but I was looking the entire time and it just felt like the perfect storm really.

Anyway it was my fault and even though there want a crash I just feel awful about it. Is this normal to feel this way? Did you feel like this after a near crash that would have been your fault?

▲ 2 r/AITAH

I live 10 mins away from my aunt and an hour from my Sister and niece. Both my parents are dead.

Today I got a call from my aunt who gave me a dressing down because I do not see family enough. I probably see them 9-10 times a year due to birthdays etc.

Whilst I agree this might not be "enough" for some, they also dont make the effort with me. I dont see why its all my fault, to be. honest. I'm quite the hermit to be honest as well, I dont go out unless I need to, I like my own space and that's just who I am. I dont feel like I have to see family just for the sake of it, im not against it, but I am not going to be the person to arrange something outside birthdays, Xmas etc.

So, AITAH here? Its pretty much every conversation with my aunt bubbles down to this. My sister, who sees my aunt quite often has never mentioned this to me. I do think though before giving me grief for not making plans my aunt should look in the mirror and realise that no one is making plans with me either.
