Nucksmemes is might genuinely be the most interesting hockey personality in the business right now. He's so committed to this team. He got a Quinn Hughes tattoo on his ass right before Quinn Hughes got traded and USA won gold. He has a whole room dedicated to Canucks merch which he mainly uses to communicate despair over how much we suck. He has the most intense reactions that are still believable because aside from shouting (happy) and shouting (angry) he'll also go on instagram spirals about being a chud with no future and a losing team and breaking no contact with his ex if Vegas wins the cup because beyond seeing the Canucks win he lives to see Vegas lose. He's on a podcast with people he says he hates and he crashes out on them every episode when he gets spoken over. He's gone through all this and he lives in Ottawa he's never lived in Vancouver he chose all of this for himself. But does he ever complain? Yes, that's most of what he does, interspaced with him affirming that he loves this team and will never change.

i’m so tired of being told that what female fans want in men’s sports is more fashion and champagne and over the top displays of wealth and wag content when really what women want is, like, a sport where the managers and players and marketers and male fans aren’t raging misogynists

[thesituation]

i don’t feel like debating that topic much farther bc truthfully if it comes down to “women will lose to men in every sport bc they don’t have as much testosterone!!!!!” my elite feminist response is honest to god “ok we will lose with honor as equals instead of having our own special Easy Mode Female category so we can win amongst ourselves” like i’m sorry i just can’t be persuaded. i’m a brick wall. i want co-ed sports

[thesituation]

i bring a sort of “women can lose at some sports against men if it means being regarded as equals” vibe to the debate that “testosterone objectively increases performance” people don’t really like

Analyzing the politics of a work that's meant to be apolitical is actually a really interesting exercise because it asks you to critically examine what the creator considers to be "political" in the first place. Which ideas are just How Things Are, and which ones are Political, and how is that influenced by the creator's beliefs?

Usually this just ends up with you looking like a moron btw

Angrily lashing out at the suggestion that it's possible to do basic media analysis was foundational to the ragebait ecosystem of the 2010s, from which we got basically the entire culture of modern far right politics, btw.

I went outside and got an education, that's where I learned that you can obtain knowledge and insight through analytical methods, then noticed that some people who sit on the internet yelling at strangers get really mad about that constantly.

daily affirmations:

I am not a jinx to the team I am rooting for

I am allowed to watch a game because my viewership will not alter the outcome of the game

I am but a drop in the bucket and the world is not affected by me watching a game

The score did not change because you looked at it funny
