'cause rock is cool but the struggle is better
@fairestcat.bsky.social
Same girl. New site. Queer, polyam, bi-polar fangirl with eclectic tastes.

Vidder. Multifannish AF. Kind of obsessed with figure skating. Once got a concussion from a cat.
Pinned
I'm in two vastly different starter packs, so Intro post time!

Hi, I'm Cat. The cat in my icon is named Dreadful. He's an adolescent in that picture, but he's now 18.

I'm a queer, polyam American immigrant to Canada.

I'm currently surviving on a diet of fanvids, figure skating and bibimbap.

my fave part of the event: misha's coach whispering in his ear that he just made the olympic podium and his full 10 seconds of buffering #MilanoCortina2026

ah yes, Stephen Gogolev in 5th and just over a point off the podium, as we all expected at this time last year #figureskating #MilanoCortina2026

Have we considered unplugging the figure skating and plugging it back in????

Ilia really has a shit ton of composure for a 21 year old who just beefed it on international TV, anyway they should leave him alone and let him go scream outside for a while

This is very true about Ilia and it’s amazing how many ultra-wealthy old men are totally incapable of being this honorable

They're so young and holding so much weight on their shoulders.

Kurt Browning, who famously went into two Olympics as the reigning world champion, but never won an Olympic medal: "I feel like Ilia and I will be having a long conversation soon." #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating

Not the way I'd want to be right. 😭

I am so happy for Shun making it all the way back on the podium! But fuck that was a hard event to watch. #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating

Ilia so gracious sincerely congratulating an absolutely stunned Mikhail Shaidarov. #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating
February 13, 2026 at 10:02 PM
Much.
February 13, 2026 at 10:00 PM
I am in shock.
February 13, 2026 at 9:57 PM
I'm heartbroken for Ilia. That was gutting to watch. #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating

I feel bad for Yuma, but OMG Mikhail Shaidarov just bluescreened. #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating
February 13, 2026 at 9:51 PM
It's been a terrible event for everyone's blood pressure!
February 13, 2026 at 9:51 PM
I gasped out loud when Yuma fell! #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating
February 13, 2026 at 9:49 PM
OMG MISHA'S WIDE EYES. That's man is in shock. #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating

Last year I thought it was maybe a possibility, but not after his year so far!

The way the judges propped up Grassl for years by ignoring his underrotations has done him a terrible disservice. Had they scored him correctly he might've worked on that and done well now. #figureskating #MilanoCortina2026

Daniel was so tired today. You could see him just gritting it out on every jump. #MilanoCortino2026 #FigureSkating
