some tiktok music artist is trying to goncharov their way to the billboard hot 100 by getting unsuspecting teens to peddle a fake 80s horror movie called Zepotha and not to be a old guy but … you will never be Goncharov you will never be as authentically weird as tumblr. someone making tiktok music will never capture the whimsy and authenticity of randos on tumblr playing the longest improv comedy session and taking it so far that martin scorsese (scorscese??? scor say see) had to comment on it, to the point where theyre gatekeeping the scorsese wikipedia page to prevent editing, to where the official lynda carter tumblr page was in on the joke. commenting “OMG! youre so alina from Zepotha coded ☝️🤓” on some innocent victim’s video is weak compared to the plethora of beautiful fanart, news articles, and fake cinema stills that were created by random tumblrinas for goofs and gaffs. you will never be the Gonch

Mercedes-Benz C11 1990: #TAM47484
A few weeks ago I saw a YT video about this kit and instantly got rememmbered about the older days. This was back then one of my favorit kits in the Tamiya catalog.
Since I was a child back then I couldn't afford it and my parents refused to buy it. In addition there wasn't an "on road" track nearby to drive it properly. So it remained a dream.
But now it's time to make this dream become reality :-)
Racecar history:
Whenever Group C sportscars are shown nowadays the're well known for their pure insanity and a lot of people well remember cars like the C11, hte 787B from Mazda and the XJR-11 from Jaguar.
The car had its race debut in 1990 at Monza and scorred a pos 1 / 2 with well known drivers like Karl Wendlinger, Jean-Louis Schlesser, Jochen Mass and Maro Baldi. During the 1990 season of the World Sports-Prototype Championship the car managed to win a total of 7 races. However the C11 didn't take part of the famous 24hrs of LeMans. Sauber decied to not defend their victory in 1989 since the 1990 24hrs of LeMans didn't count for the Sports-Prototype Championship.
Most of the other Sports-Prototype drivers, including Martin Brundle in his XJR-11, sayd, that it would have been nearly impossible to follow the car since it was way easier to drive, had more power and more efficient aerodynamics than other group c racecars back then.
In 1991 the successor was the Sauber C-291 but due to some techincal issues in the early season Sauber decided to run the C11 along the successor.
More details can be found in this Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_C11
RC kit history:
In 1990 Tamiya first released the Sauber C11 as kit with item-Nr 58088. 14 Years after its initial release there was a second kit with Item-Nr 58351. While tha chassis itself stayed more or less the same the newer kit included an allready painted and finished body.
The box cover changed in 2009 when they released a second batch / version from the Tamiya specific white box art to a black box art.
In 2022...18 Years after the last release...Tamiya decided to bring it back to customers not with the item-nr 47484 and again with a black art box cover.
While the chassis remained almost the same the newest releases all contain a clear polycarbonate body (1mm) and a sports tuned motor as well as high grip foam sponge tyres.
More details about the dimmensions and a detailled parts list are available here https://www.tamiyausa.com/shop/110-f-1gtindy-cars/rc-1990-mercedes-benz-c11/ and here https://tamiyabase.com/tamiya-models/47484-47484#original
The build:
Tumblr media
I found the kit at a nearby hobby shop in Switzerland for about 150$ https://www.scamora.ch/pi/RC-MODELLE/Auto-Modelle/Elektro-On-Road/Bausatz-Modelle/rc-kit-tamiya-sauber-mercedes-benz-c11-1990-110.html
Compared to other vinatge kits and re-releases this is a rather easy one to find.
The kit is easy to build and it's quite fast since the manual only consits of 20 build steps with additional 6 for the painting and livery.
Tumblr media
Since I first saw a build clip on YT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4oZGuvd84o I got hooked to the few hop up options and decided to add them as well.
Hop-up parts:
Unfortunately the YT clip isn't listing a detailled hop-up parts list. So it was a bit of fiddeling around with "pause" and "zoom" into the clip to get all the parts together. I doubt they do have much of an impact but if you can go with blue alloy tuning parts there's no doubt you should do :-) Here's a list of the used tuning / hop-up parts:
TAM42375 - 1280 Sealed Ball Bearings (2)
TAM54158 - Full alloy diff (F104)
TAM54240 - F104 Clamp Type Wheel Hub
TAM53008 - Kugellager 11x5x4mm (4)
TAM53901 - TRF Damper F013/F103GT/F104
Since there are no official hop-up parts for these vintage kits they need a bit of adjustments and I had to design and print some parts on my 3D printer to made them fit perfectly. But it's no big deal and you might find "fitting" parts in other kits out of the box.
If I find some time I'll publish the printable *.stl files on Thingiverse later on.
And like every other tuned rc car with hop-up parts from Tamiya this one looks great even if you don't see them with the body on.

The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton
Have you ever been on a holiday that was so good you didn’t want to come home? A trip that was so exciting, so filled with fun and new experiences, that you didn’t want it to end? Have you ever visited a place that was so wonderful, that you would be happy to live out the rest of your days there?
In February 2014, we travelled to New York to celebrate my husband’s 30th birthday. We were newly married in June of the previous year, and had recently bought our first home together. New York was bitterly cold, made even more so by the vicious winds that swept through the skyscraper filled streets. There was snow on the ground when we landed at Newark on a cold Friday morning. But we didn’t care one bit. For one week, we lived like New Yorkers (albeit with the perma-smiling faces of two tourists on their first trip to the Big Apple). We took long walks in Central Park. We visited Bloomingdales, Grand Central Station and the Rockefeller Centre. We walked along the High Line and watched a fashion shoot taking place inside one of the nearby buildings. We wandered the winding streets of Greenwich Village and drank hot tea in glasses in a tiny hipster café. We had lunch at a restaurant near Washington Square, surrounded by academics from NYU and Woody Allen types. We got lost looking for the Flatiron Building and ended up in Chelsea. On one particularly chilly afternoon, we took refuge in a church on the Upper East Side and drank hot chocolate, enjoying the stillness, a sanctuary from the bustling streets outside.
I love America. I would visit a different state every year, if the exchange rate didn’t make it so expensive for us Brits. I love its brashness, the boldness and confidence of its people. America to me is like a patchwork quilt of many colours and embroidered images. On every occasion I have visited, no two days are ever the same. No two streets are the same. You can be completely anonymous one moment and told that you are beautiful by a stranger the next. I love American people, American culture, American food, American television. But most of all I love American literature.
I couldn’t visit New York without perusing its many bookshops. I spent at least an hour wandering around Barnes and Noble on Fifth Avenue, until my new husband asked me if we could do something else. I couldn’t leave without making a purchase, so I left with two American classics – The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton, and A Farewell To Arms by Ernest Hemingway.
And then I left them on the plane.
It was possibly the joy of some young academic’s life when they boarded the next Virgin Atlantic flight to New York, only to discover some free reading material for their trip, courtesy of me, underneath their seat. Either that, or the cabin crew threw them away. Regardless, I was devastated to discover on arriving home that I had left my double bill of classic American novels on the plane. The first thing I did was repurchase them both. I saved Hemingway for later that year, and read it during a trip to Paris to celebrate my own milestone birthday. But I got stuck into Edith Wharton right away.
Published in 1920, The Age of Innocence was Edith Wharton’s eighth novel, and is widely regarded as her finest work. The first Pulitzer Prize winning book to be written by a woman, it is billed as a slightly satirical novel, a comedy of manners.
The Age of Innocence is centred around Newland Archer, a young New York lawyer who has recently become engaged to May Welland, a young debutante from a prominent New York family. However, his world is thrown into disarray with the arrival of May’s cousin, Countess Ellen Olenska. The Countess has returned to America after separating from her husband, a Polish count, and her arrival causes a sensation. She shocks polite New York society with her glamorous and revealing outfits, unconventional manners, and rumours of adultery. It may not come as a surprise (especially if you have seen Martin Scorsese’s film version, starring Daniel Day Lewis as Newland Archer) to learn that Newland soon becomes attracted to the captivating Ellen. She returns his feelings, but decency and the fear of society’s judgement soon prove too much for Newland, and he moves forward with his wedding to May.
Time and May’s eventual pregnancy conspire to keep the lovers apart, until 25 years later, May dies from pneumonia. Now a father of three children, Newland travels to France with his son, where he arranges to visit the Countess at her Paris apartment. However, at the last moment, he changes his mind, choosing to send his son alone instead. He ultimately decides that he is content to live with his memories of the past.
It would be easy to dismiss The Age of Innocence as a kind of 19th century chick lit (I hate that term). It is also easy to call it a novel about two lovers and very little else. Instead, it is a novel about the struggle between society’s expectations and individual desires – essentially, between the individual and the group. May Welland is characterised as a product of the system, an ideal example of the social code. She is beautiful, innocent, and not intellectual. She appears perfectly subservient, and is the perfect wife for a man in Newland Archer’s position. And yet she is unafraid to manipulate Newland when it is needed, and there is no doubt that she uses her eventual pregnancy as a ruse to be rid of Ellen Olenska forever.
Edith Wharton wrote about a period of American history that took place around 50 years before she was born. She was writing about a time when moral codes and manners strongly dictated how the individual would act. Any deviation from these codes would lead to disgrace and even removal from polite society. Hence Newland ultimately refuses to sacrifice his desires and opinions in order not to upset the established codes of New York society.
The ending of this book initially irritated me. (That is not the first time it has happened – Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier and One Day by David Nichols both made me want to throw the book at the wall) Why bother with a significant time jump and the creation of circumstances that would allow true love to prevail, only to have your leading man conduct a complete about-turn right at the last moment? I imagine that Edith Wharton did this to demonstrate that in real life, because in real life, love between two old lovers rarely prevails. We rarely end up with someone we have loved and lost. Many of us have at one time or another loved someone we could not be with (or someone who was not ours to love) and when those relationships end, it is often final. Very few of us will eventually find a way to be with “the one who got away”. Newland Archer realises, with a depressing finality, that his memories of Ellen Olenska are ultimately more satisfying than any relationship between them could be, and that a renewal of their relationship in mid-life could never be the same. They may discover that they have nothing in common. They may discover that, 25 years on, they are very different people and no longer suited. Their romance may not last, and their memories will be tainted. So he chooses to leave their love in the past.
“It’s more real to me here than if I went up” he says.
The Age of Innocence is an intriguing insight into the New York of the 19th century – The Gilded Age, or Old New York as it is known. Since reading the novel, I have harboured a mild curiosity about that world, and its modern equivalent. I would be interested to learn whether some of those codes and conventions depicted in the book still exist, amongst a certain small proportion of New York’s high society. Watching the cliques of New York housewives at lunch together on Madison Avenue during our trip, and overhearing their conversations, I am sure that it does. Does that segment of society still marry (at least in part) for advantageous purposes, as opposed to simply marrying for love? Does who you know count more than what you know? Are women still expected to a certain extent to be a beautiful, innocent ingenue, as opposed to a free thinking, carefree woman like Ellen Olenska?
In 2023, we can find much to ponder about Old New York and its parallels to modern society in Edith Wharton’s novel.

Sascha eventually amasses a tiny posse of gremliny little girls, many of them Rogue-adjacent, but before that he has a lot of trouble making friends. She didn’t really have any when she lived in Bludhaven and wouldn’t have had many opportunities to spend time with them even if she did. Things don’t improve quickly once she relocates to Gotham.
It’s hard enough to adjust to a new school, new city, and new living situation with new guardians. Add onto that her previous parents being assassinated by a bird-themed cabal, her new parents being a mob boss and a serial killer, and her own idea of extracurricular activities being at least misdemeanors, and her new classmates tend to keep their distance. Nobody wants to spend recess with the kid that roleplays extortion scenarios with your Barbies.
This is antithetical to Roman’s efforts to let her be a normal, stupid kid, so he tries to find her some more open-minded playmates.
Roman: *on the phone* Dinah, you've have that stray kid now, right?
Dinah: You mean Cynthia. My daughter. Who I adopted.
Roman: Yes, that one. I want to set up a playdate with Sascha. She’s not having the best luck making friends.
Dinah: Are they bullying her?
Roman: No, she’s just got a little... creative during a game of house or fairy princess or whatever the fuck kids play. Might’ve scared them off a little.
Dinah: ...What kind of creative?
Roman: ...Martin Scorsese?
Dinah: What era Scor--? No, ya know what? Fuck it. I’ll pick her up on Friday.
Roman: You will?
Dinah: Cyn needs friends, too. I mean, as long as your cool with the whole thing where she was sheltered from the modern world to be trained as an assassin from birth.
Roman: ...
Dinah: ...Or if that’s a problem--
Roman: No. No, that’s perfect. My kid’s really fucking weird, too.
Dinah: Yeah, I picked up on that.

I hope you don't mind a question but how would you describe Tom Holland? 😏😁
Ooh so you're asking me to display hard how I simp for this man? Well...
I think Tom is probably going to go down as one of the better actors of the GenZ/Late Millennial generation. His talent has already been shown outside of the spiderman universe with things such as The Devil All The Time, Chaos Walking (which... while a bad movie he did well in it. Seriously, himbo tom holland all day long), and Cherry (honestly my favorite performance of his even surpassing NWH). I'm super pumped for Uncharted because I think he's gonna do well as a fan of the series, and he's genuinely 1 major break away from other people finally recognizing his god damn TALENT.
He's also incredibly thoughtful and caring. He's constantly going around to hospitals to cheer up sick kids, donating to charities, and generally being a person that's honestly commendable to look up to. He's a fantastic role model for younger kids who have aspirations, and considering his biggest scandal so far is the Martin Scor criticism (which he was RIGHT on by the way), that's pretty amazing in this day and age of online social media presence.
Honestly he's stupendous of a person, and him just being gorgeous to look at is the icing on the cake.
