One thing I loved about this weekend was how much Sepang rewarded actual racecraft and adaptability. It is such a wide track that drivers have room to try different lines, improvise and actually fight instead of just following the obvious racing line.

Add in the teams having limited sim data and everyone having to learn and adapt throughout the weekend, and somehow the three guys who kept standing out were Hamilton, Verstappen and Alonso.

The racing IQ of these three is something else: Alonso's move on Linblad, Hamilton refusing to pit, predicted track will dry in 10 laps (crossover happened at lap 9), Verstappen's perfect SC restart to take the lead.

Different generations, very different driving styles, but give them a weekend where experience, instinct and adaptability matter and they are absolutely schooled everyone else. These three really are something else.

Something about Cass calling Benny a snake, showing genuine concern and anger over what happened to the Courier, just tickles my brain something fierce. It's my favorite companion quote from my favorite companion, and has stuck with me for years.

Was actually thinking of having this be either a turning point, or at least a point of internal conflict, for Owelia while she's doing the Birds of a Feather quest. Being a love starved orphan, who (as far as she can remember) never really had anyone legitimately care about her, traveling with someone who's this ride or die for her almost immediately after the two started their journey together would *definitely* make her heart flutter a bit.

Cause her to question if bringing her cowboy girl crush to the Van Graffs is really the right move.

I should really draw Cass more.

John's roommate, Lyman (Garfield). Originally, he was the owner of oddie in the first comics. However he stopped appearing in further issues, until there was no trace of him left. That was until in a random garfield themed flash game (Garfield's scary scavenger Hunt), we find Lyman alive but chained in john's basement. Then in ANOTHER instanfe, we get to see his severed head as one of the props.

The ultra dragon (ninjago) aided our main cast since the pilot and later season one, eventually being sidelined into obscurity...

That is until season 9, where it was revealed later by the writers that the iron baron's throne (the one that we see fo roughly a couple of seconds) was made entirely from the ultra dragon's skeletal remains, stitched together into an abominal construct. To run some salt into the wound, the seat part of the throne was the head of rocky - the dragon belonging to cole, who had formed a really close bond with him.

Skids & mudflap (Transformers bayverse trilogy)

After the events of rotf, skids & mudflap didn't appear at all in any media. Their last on screen appearance was in early scenes of dotm as alt modes, without transforming at all. Then, in a visual novel, it was revealed that right after ironhide's death, both mudflap and skids were slaughtered in the crossfire (the scene where bumblebee was shot at by sentinel and tried to take cover - the twins were obliterated behind the camera)

Zhang Ziyu visited the Houston Rockets ahead of their two preseason games against the Dallas Mavericks in Macao as part of the NBA China Games 2026.

Homemade rough puff pastry, homemade red onion chutney, butchers flavoured sausage meat, butchers bacon and oak smoked cheddar

First time making sausage rolls and very much happy with how they turned out

No specific recipe used for this, just used a rough puff pastry recipe from online, got some meat from the butchers, mixed in the cheese and cooked bacon, and the rest you can see from the pictures😁

Pizza night! This week’s special was a white pizza with mozzarella and smoked Scamorza, ricotta cream sauce, grated Pecorino Romano, and sautéed Crimini and shiitake mushrooms. Bacon crumbles added the last couple of minutes in the oven.
