Oscar is now P3 due to post race penalties given to Hamilton and Antonelli

I saw people in the comments going “oh they switched personalities for this one” but I don’t think that’s true at all. I think this is a difference of how okay they are at being bad at something/not being able to figure something out.

Lando is a competitive little shit, and will do anything he can to win any challenge or competition, but this wasn’t a competition. Lando settled quickly with knowing he wouldn’t be able to solve it, so instead he decided to make something artful. Lando usually thrives and goes more quiet and focused when doing artsy things, seemingly very content.

Oscar on the other hand doesn’t mind losing random challenges. He does, however, not like being bad at something. We see him often making something funny and really not trying at all to be artistic during challenges like that, because he knows he’s not good at it, so he doesn’t even try. When it comes to logic and thinking though, he’s more keen to prove himself. Quizzes and trivia is where he seems to care the most. Oscar is presented with the cube and he feels like he should be able to figure it out, but he can’t, so that makes him sassy and irritated. Had it been an art challenge he just wouldn’t have cared and not tried.

The European Central Bank has revealed proposed designs for new Euro bank notes, and is taking feedback.

So currently I answer to my full first name (which I usually introduce myself with) as well as two nicknames/diminutives plus my last name when people mistake it for a first name. There are two or three other nicknames I've also gone by in the past. I'm perfectly fine with this, or neutral at minimum-- I have a common name and have had to be flexible with how I'm distinguished for my whole life. I also don't feel a deep and fundamental connection of my name with my identity, though I think going by another name entirely would confuse me.

A number of friends have been appalled at me being called names I don't say are my name. Which is really weird to me, although I'd go to battle for anyone else who was getting either deadnamed or called something they didn't want. But this perspective seems surprisingly common!
