Headed to give a university talk about how I maintain hope in today’s world and how I maintain my spiritual health.
Hope they’re ready to hear about Ilya Rozanov and Shane Hollander!

Well, I hope to never forget that today I learned that in the show the hit happens 25 seconds into the game, so Ilya has to get through 59 mins and 35 seconds of playing time and two intermissions while out of his fucking mind.
Glad to have learned this!

My spouse, with a big grin as the Foo Fighters' 'My Hero' comes on in the car:
"Just waiting for the best line, 'Kudos my hero.' I wonder what Kurt Cobain would have thought of that. I don't know, maybe that's a thing they did, just kudos-ed each other in the band."
Anyway that's why I'm married.

Really nothing funnier than a hockey goalie sitting on the ice, legs splayed after letting in a goal, looking like a kid who ran too fast and let his scoop of ice-cream fall off the cone

It’s not my imagination that… that is visibly and palpably not a “king-sized bed,” right ?

Normally don’t do this, but the Twin Cities are occupied and there are a lot of folks I know who are helping people with very acute needs. I know a lot of good folks out there have offered to help or want to know how they can help, so I may occasionally boost fundraisers for folk or causes I trust.

It’s a real wasted opportunity that there are four tennis grand slams but only three playing surfaces. Time to make it a proper challenge:
French Open - clay;
Wimbledon - grass;
US Open - hardcourt;
Australian Open - hot coals.

Alright you all you know what's wild? If you try to find a flight to Russia on most travel websites, there is no option to search for it. Now, I know there are no flights right now, and I'd be fine with "no flights found." But if you try to search for Moscow or SVO, *it's not an option.* As if SVO >

@akaharriet.bsky.social ahh a thing I have never told you is that for years (okay maybe not quite 2, but still) my friends were losing their minds over MDZS and I couldn’t get into it (I kept TRYING!) and then I read simplest way forward and it cracked me and it open so that we could meet with joy

So I once tried to let my university let me teach a course about how individual genius was a myth and all worthwhile creation was collective and they made me change it to something more neutral and supportive of white men’s fantasies of importance.

Rewatching This Stupid Fucking Show with a friend who needs it for fic purposes and saying things like, "I will SHAVE my HEAD again (shaved it last month for medical purposes) you DON'T understand I am but an ANCHORITE in the face of this WATER BOTTLE" and feeling... real sane.

This also feels like a good time to celebrate (do read the alt text) François Arnaud, the most famous actor who wanted to be affiliated with Heated Rivalry, and who therefore probably played a really significant role in its success
Long live François; may he never have to drink shit smoothies again
