I think Lewis pushes the team. I think he does a really good job of giving us feedback. He works really hard. His work ethic has not changed at all this year.
He’s here late in the evenings working with us, trying to get the most from the car, and I think that’s just an encouragement to everyone else in the team to see the input he’s putting in. - Mike Elliott

Mike Elliot, Mercedes Technical Director on George Russell: [...] But I think the other aspect for me, as the Technical Director, he's very good to work with from an engineer's point of view, in a sense that he gets it. You know you can have a conversation about what you think the car is doing on an engineering basis and he quickly really tunes into that and is able to give you feedback, that's easy to use and to understand. And I think that's going to be really useful for his going forward.
[...] I think the difference I'd say with George is, [...] you kind of forget he's not an engineer when you explain things to him, from an engineering sense he gets it. Sometimes you discuss things with a driver and you explain it and they nod their head and say "Yeah, I understand it". And then a couple of days later you get a question and you think "Ah no you not quite understood". With George that doesn't really happen, he'll come back to you a couple of days later when you discuss a topic and he's clearly picked it up and understood it and that's impressive.

so killjoys comics right? i’ve had California for about a year. it’s wonderful. amazing images and story telling and everything. i got National Anthem this past year for Christmas. read it yesterday in one go. it’s wonderful. amazing images and story telling and everything.
i’ve seen that majority of people far prefer California, and have to read National Anthem several times to somewhat understand it. idk why, it’s probably autism-related, but i understood it perfectly on my first read. i probably prefer it to California.
i don’t really get how it’s hard to understand? i mean i sort of do with the way it’s layed out and each chapter being sort of different perspectives but also not? but i loved the story and the concept behind it.
i really admired the character backstory and development behind Mike Milligram and the way BL/I wiped them so they had little to no memory of being killjoys.
also trans Kara makes me so unbelievably happy. the fact that they all catch on instantly. they don’t give a shit that she’s trans, they just want her to come back to them. to keep rebelling. that’s what i adore about Gerard’s writing.
i don’t know if it classifies as a ‘coming out scene’ but i found quite a few correlations with that and Viktor’s coming out in season 3 of Netflix’s ‘The Umbrella Academy’.
it made me really interested to see that possibly that scene was based of Gerard’s previous writing in National Anthem. i know Gerard isn’t too involved in the actual producing of the show, but they obviously have some input since they wrote the comics the show, primarily the first season, are based on.
this may be far-fetched but i love the thought that Steve Blackman or anyone else working behind scenes in the show possibly had a look at, or had already read, Gerard’s previous works, and incorporated a part of that into the show.
also, rehashing the Viktor transition thing. as a transgender person myself, i absolutely love and admire the way the transition and coming out was represented in the show. and i know that some people were a little shocked to see how quickly the producers worked it in to the season.
but really?
nothing written by, or based off something written by Gerard Way would ever do a transition scene wrongly.
that is all, thank you.
