Some people* arrange them spine inwards.

*Those greige people with beige personalities.

People do that? For books?

I’ve arranged them like they would be in bookstore or library… Categories, sub categories, alphabetically by authors last name πŸ˜‚.

I’m so in love with my bookcase! 😍

And yes, I’ve arranged them in categories 😁

They would have been further behind if they stopped during VSC me thinks….etc had the edge in race 1. Plain & simple.

I agree! The UN should not have a monopoly (I think it's theme this year is #RightsJusticeAction).

And the .com GiveToGain stuff is beyond duplicity.

I might feel like smashing the scales!

Ferrari exceeded my expectations at start. A bit disappointed we couldn’t make an impression despite much younger tyres.

It will come back… I suspect the lack of overtaking in the 2nd half was also due to the need for tyre preservation,

I still prefer this to cars zooming past each other in DRS zones

Loved the race!

Not missing DRS zones. Couldn’t take my eyes off for the first 30 laps at least!

For future races, Merc shouldn’t bother with tyres for George Russel. I’m convinced he can drive 58 laps on rims alone πŸ˜….

Highlight: Charles & George battles at the start…

Looks like I have a 50:50 split between fiction & non-fiction.

Can’t wait to begin stacking my library.

Hey women,

Don’t know about you, but I’m done waiting for anyone to support, sponsor or god forbid empower me!

I power myself & extend my force towards all of you.

Happy International Women’s Day.

Fuck the cake. Eat them wings & throw the bones on the ground.

Sadly the UN doesn’t have monopoly over the IWD theme.

IWD.org has legitimate money behind it from people who year after year want to sabotage women.

That’s what I’m rejecting because I agree with you.

The UN theme is Balance the Scales which is also meh. I want to fucking #TIPTHESCALES!

Hey that’s my point. I’m rejecting THIS theme.

Like it or not, it exists & has legitimate money behind it from people who year after year want to sabotage women.

Separately, the UN theme is β€œBalance the Scales”.

That’s not good enough for me either. I want to fucking TIP THE SCALES!

The IWD theme is NOT this bollocks. This rip off company tries to make money out of women feel guilty about having a day for ourselves.
If this make you reject IWD, maybe take to look at the UN's website before deciding.
Having said all that, if I see one more pink cupcake...

Apparently the International Women’s Day theme for 2026 is β€œGive to Gain”.

Errrrm say that again please?

β€œGive (a lot) to Gain (little to nothing)”.

They must think we stupid!

Leclerc estimates Mercedes could be as much as a second a lap faster than the rest of the field!

Really hoping he is wrong 😬

How about this?

LinkedIn asking women to Give (free content) to Gain (88.8 cents for ever dollar a man earns).

Ok @greatgenes.bsky.social , @emilymayo.bsky.social , @lisatellstruth.bsky.social @ingridm.bsky.social let’s play a game. For IWD let’s find the lamest tokenistic IWD bollocks we can find and rip it to shreds. Don’t go searching. No extra work. Just if it comes up in your feed. Are you with me?
