Glazed and Confused
Pairing: Lando Norris x Potter!Youtuber!reader
Summary: when lando fails to make a simple mug, fans direct him towards your YouTube channel
a/n: I took 1 hr long class on pottery and quit. Don’t like the feel of it, have mostly forgot literally everything about it so…🤷🏻♀️
a/n 2: I really struggled to get lando’s voice down and don’t really think I did. Oops 😬 will work on that for next time (also plz ignore that changing of the handles. I try to keep them accurate but again I’m not on those social media platforms so…)
a/n 3: I tried to make sure that this reader was never gendered or given a race — there’s one photo near the end that depicts 2 white smaller hands but I think that is the only time. Please let me know how I did, if you could

landonorris: kiln unveiling and some upcoming projects!
listen. when I randomly decided that I wanted to learn how to make ceramic dishes, it was mostly because I wanted to make something with my own 2 hands — and when I wasn’t immediately good at it, I decided that I wouldn’t stop until I was.
Its been a long couple of months with a lot of struggles but I can finally say that I’m proud of how far I’ve come. It hasn’t been easy but the journey and the process has been fun and i genuinely can’t wait to see what comes next!

Hey, just wanted to preface this by saying that you’re a cool dude, and obviously I’m not trying to attack you or say you’re wrong or need to agree with me or anything! I just wanted to make this ask to hear your perspective and potentially show you a new perspective on Madoka Magica.
You recently reblogged a post about how Gen Urobuchi wrote a subversion of a genre without showing respect to it, and clown me if I have made the wrong assumption, but was that post about Madoka Magica?
I won’t speak on Rebellion, but Madoka as a show seemed to me like a reinforcement of the themes of the Magical Girl genre. It uses its subversions, not to disrespect magical girls, but celebrate them and their ideals. And that’s only if you consider Madoka a subversion at all, as many people make the argument that it doesn’t actually subvert the genre.
Clearandsweet has a great series on YouTube dedicated to analyzing Madoka through this lens. (The spoiler thesis is that Madoka’s character is a Magical Girl, with all the themes that entails, in a story that’s constantly trying to prevent her, and the show itself, from being one. In the end, she overcomes this the way a Magical Girl would, ultimately celebrating magical girls and their ideals. Everything that goes wrong in this show is not an edgey indictment of magical girls, but rather an exploration of how things can go wrong without them, and therefore a reinforcement of why we need Magical Girls and their themes.)
Sorry if this ask felt out of nowhere or rude! I just wanted to make this ask because the anime-bro discourse about Madoka has seriously lost the plot on what the show is even about. To the point that Madoka ripoffs (that also fail to understand Madoka) plague the genre. I was even someone who felt similarly about Gen Urobuchi and Madoka until I did a rewatch as an adult.
It’s a really well-directed show that was mired with the stupid “deconstruction” discourse of its time, so I definitely recommend watching or rewatching the show with this in mind if you’re ever bored or need something to do. Obviously this interpretation is not objectively correct or anything, but I just wanted to open this up to you because this revelation was something I really enjoyed (and something I felt cheated out of by the stupid anime-bro culture surrounding it), and maybe you’d enjoy it too. And I’d love to hear your perspective on it, too, as I love reading different interpretations of Madoka!
I’m sorry that happened to you or happy it’s 2023 I’m not reading an essay on madoka.
Did read the end tbh I haven’t watched madoka since it aired I don’t remember enough to even give a perspective. Honestly I just hate gen urobuchi bc of fate/ zero.
Anyway it’s almost my birthday and almost midnight here
Only slightly related he said some insane shit about a minor gundam characters death

About Existentialism & Tummy Aches
(I know no one will find this blog this is just in case lol)
Existentialism & Tummy Aches is my story! It revolves around Circuit, a weird man with a TV for a head running a bizarre store with even more bizarre products. Along with him there’s Olivia (Liv) Kelly, his roommate who runs a bakery within the same building. I’d like to make a webcomic one day, but keep in mind that’ll probably never happen (it happened, it’s linked in socials) this is just a dumping ground for my OC art in reality. I do post the occasional comic strip, though! Also, I only started art last year so I’d consider myself a beginner, don’t expect much lol.
Feel free to ask any non-spoilery questions!
——————————————————————————————————
PERSONAL BOUNDARIES:
Keep in mind I’m 16, please.
Don’t be a bigot.
I already know I’m cringe, no one needs to tell me lol
I don’t friend people idk irl, sorry.
And that’s pretty much it
——————————————————————————————————CHARACTER/WEBTOON BOUNDARIES:
(not even necessary since I don’t foresee anyone doing this/wanting to do any of this (especially cause my art (and story) kinda sucks rn lol) but I’ll put it here anyways so we’re absolutely clear)
Personal boundaries still stand here too, obviously. Lol
SHIPPING: Sure, why not. As long as it’s legal and unproblematic idrc lol, just don’t get into fights about it
FANART: Yeah! I’d love to see fanart (as long as it’s with credit) tag me! :D
NSFW FANART: Tbh personally I don’t really have a problem with it as long as you give credit (WITHOUT TAGGING ME, I DONT WANT TO SEE IT MYSELF) and it’s of my adult characters. HOWEVER, I am still a minor myself so I’d probably advise against it, I can’t see how that wouldn’t be weird to an adult without some major creep signals. Maybe wait until I’m an adult, I’d be kinda uncomfortable because of that.
COMMENTS: Comparing them to other characters? Please don’t, unless it’s just an “oh this reminds me of x” or whatever, I do usually like that! But if I get too many “oh this reminds me of (the same character)” over and over again I might ask you don’t compare to that specific character anymore. Romantic and/or light sexual comments to my ADULT CHARACTERS (NOT ME OR ANY OR MY CHILD CHARACTERS) yeah sure I agree with you lol. Just don’t get super graphic, I am still a minor like I said, thank you. Toxicity of any sort? Instant block and your comment will be deleted. Might get a warning depending on what it is.
USING MY ART AS A PROFILE: Yeah, sure, as long as you give credit in your bio!
REPOSTING MY ART: Don’t do anything weird, don’t pass it off as your own (and make it very clear it’s not yours) and give credit (preferably a link). Then go ahead.
HEADCANONS: As long as it’s unproblematic, headcanon away!
FANFICTION: Unproblematic? Why not, go ahead.
