THREAD 🧵
On this International Women’s Day, I’d like to take this opportunity to talk to you about something.
I’ve discovered something incredible about Alba (Larsen)
At the age of 15, Alba set up Girls International Racing Lab, a community aimed at helping young girls discover motorsport. Through this community, Alba organises events such as go-karting sessions, meet-ups….
By organising races, meet-ups and mentoring sessions with Alba and other role models, the initiative has already engaged over 400 girls and young women in Denmark alone & Alba’s goal for this year is to reach 15,000 girls around the world.
In 2025, Alba received the FIA Women in Motorsport Award, as they recognised the impact G.I.R.L. was already having and the pathway it was starting to open up for young girls looking at racing for the first time

A point couldn't be missed any further and it has 8k likes. She's not saying straight women can be bottoms she's saying how being the one who receives penetration is seen as degrading because it's perceived as being a woman & womanly thing. This illiterate level is terrible
I'm glad the villain of the new Toy Story is a child's tablet. I hope the film conveys how screens eat up a child's hobbies, interests, literacy, ability to function socially. I hope it provokes millions of parents to think twice before making the iPad a babysitter.
