the thing about sourds and leno is people think they're smart4idiot, with sourdy as the long-suffering competent one saving leno from himself. but they're actually the most classic idiot4idiot you'll ever find. both of them put all their brain cells towards hockey and forgot to save any for the rest of life. they never drive each other crazy bc they're constantly discovering really basic shit and showing it to each other like whoaaaaa dude look at this! did you know you can put pop tarts in the toaster? and the other one's like WE HAVE A TOASTER?!? NO WAY BRO!!!! it's really beautiful and everyone around them is just amazed they're still alive
Several wildfires are forcing members of a number of First Nations to flee their homes in northern Ontario.
āI had time to run home and pack a bag and get to the beach where the boats were waiting,ā said a member of Namaygoosisagagun First Nation (Collins). āWe literally had minutes to get on the boats and flee before it took our town.
āOnce we left my house finally after packing what I could in a pack sack, the fire was right behind our place. We had to run to the beach and once we got there, it was only moments before the fire had jumped over the (train) track and was coming for us.ā
it has since been confirmed that namaygoosisagagun first nation has completely burnt to the ground. if you would like to help the community navigate an ongoing crisis, i urge you to donate to the anishinabek nation 7th generation, a registered charity seeking to improve the lives of first nations people. donations are going directly to members of namaygoosisagagun first nation.

when a woman points out that sports fans hate women and sports leagues hate women and athletes hate women people will often go "just watch women's sports" and it's a stupid fucking response every single time
women should be respected in every single sports space, none of these structural issues are solved by just ... sending them somewhere else + the way people say this always comes across as demeaning; watching womens sports is worthwhile on its own, it shouldnāt be prescribed as exile for women who notice that the wider sports world hates them
i love womenās soccer!!!! itās so fun to watch!!!! the fans and the players are so welcoming, itās such an amazing environment. i love watching these amazing athletes push themselves and give it their all. i love the rivalries i love winning i love the passion!!!!!
you're laughing. danny briere just blew up the national hockey league right before a long weekend and you're laughing. good. i'm laughing too. this is so fuckign funny
to my caps, baby caps, futurecaps and hopefuls: I hope youāll get to write your own special chapter in the never-ending story of the capitals.
a very special thanks to @sapphicslapshot (see: post on our ogapey doggies!!!) for inspiring me to make my own for my FUTURECAPS propaganda <3
okayyy so the entire thing was originally supposed to be just about the five in that picture from picture day⦠was supposed to be some really cool in-game shots of them to āEightā!
and then I got carried away during the process and then had too many things and people and stories I wanted to include (this isnāt even all of them wow) and now it looks like this
yepp so, this was literally a jumble of thoughts I had somehow, hopefully, coherently put together! i did try to keep it to recent 3rd-rounders AND those currently with the bears
ANYWAYS.
hope you enjoy :D
