generally speaking, the cooler and better your offline political activities are, the more important it becomes that you do not post about it on your personal social media acconts

I maintain that this man's entire existence is elaborate performance art to call attention to the elite impunity problem in this country in the most garish way and it's still not working

i think i saw a movie like this once

[maidslime]

Ok I needed to know the story and

Guy makes a really stupid decision and gets in a car accident -> no real damage from accident but insurance goes up -> starts beating himself up over his stupid decision -> gets depressed -> starts to realize he's single and had crash been worse he'd die alone -> realizes he's never had a relationship or even a crush and starts wondering what he'd want out of a relationship -> starts to realize he doesn't really like girls so he thinks he must be gay -> realizes he likes girls and boys about the same amount, so he must be bi -> later realizes that "same amount" is none at all -> he's ace

I really hate to say this but like; networking with rich people and convincing them you're cool and competent and have great ideas is actually possibly the single most classic way to get out of poverty that doesn't involve sharp rocks and skulls.

[licencetokrill]

Yeah… like the wealthy kids always have those “fun” little internships that lead to Big Jobs because their dad’s friend owns the company, and yadda yadda yadda they’re set up for life. I get the feeling that people think this means CEO of a Fortune 500 parasite, but no, it can literally be “my dad knows a guy who owns an auto body shop”.

Or, “I worked for a manager who took a shine to me and knows another guy who works for a company that actually does the thing I want to do.” As a poor, networking is how you get tip-offs and references. If you’re trying to claw out of poverty through the front door, you have a Sisyphean task.

This is also why building a strong community is important and getting to know your neighbours is important. Oh, so-and-so has dogs need walked? Well so-and-so also works at the hardware store and she just happens to know someone just quit, and she can put in a good word for you.

And so on and so on and so on. Also it can work in the reverse! If you’re in a good spot and you get to know your neighbours, and you know that they’re having a tough time, you can do something about it and connect them to people you know!

This is one of the most powerful images I have ever seen, and I will reblog it every single time because every single time it brings tears to my eyes.

Personally I do think that sometimes non-hockey fans can end up mischaracterizing Shane and Ilya because they don't know enough about hockey/hockey playstyles

The Ilya we see in Heated rivalry would not be throwing the first punch, he's not an enforcer. Ilya is a star center and a Pest. He wouldn't be doing his job correctly if he was punching players every other game, it would end up with not enough ice time to let him be the playmaker he's paid to be.

But being a pest can be playmaking! Find a player to bait, emotionally push them just enough that they try to fight you, and then get the fuck out of there before the ref gives you both penalties. This gets your team the power play. There is probably someone on Ilya's line dedicated to helping him get out of the fights he starts, and finishing them for him!

I also think this is also something that Shane would respect. Ilya is good at it and it's a good strategy for his team. I don't think Shane would see it as some dirty tactic, because Shane probably thinks everyone with a brain can see it for what it is! He probably thinks everyone should be able to see that being an asshole is a tactic for Ilya, that it's something to ignore and not fall for, that it's a strategy and not personal beef.

I think Shane's more disappointed when a Metro falls for it. Shane sees it as Ilya set up a Looney Toons ass obvious trap and one of his teammates ran into it. Why be mad at Bugs Bunny when you can be mad at your defenceman for falling for a fucking Bugs Bunny trap.

Every single person I know who did football in high school, without exception, has a chronic injury. Many regret what it's done to their knees and back, even major organs like the brain.

There is no serious legislative push to ban high school football.

[quasi-normalcy]

Also, like, if you want to talk about social pressure on minors to undertake activities that will result in regrettable, irreversible damage to their bodies:

No one, *ever*, tried to persuade me to transition.

My gym teacher tried to persuade me to try out for the football team almost every single day that I was in junior high.

#i firmly believe that the reason why concussions and brain damage in general#are not taken nearly as seriously as they should be#is because of football#if we take concussions and brain trauma seriously then we have to acknowledge the risks that children are undertaking at even#high school level football#but we can't do that#because the kids need to play football in high school so they can play football in college so they can join the NFL#This time I'm really gonna queue it.

[astrologamage]

I recently watched this video by hydn called “The Great Concussion Denial” and holy fucking shit. Made me sick to my stomach. The tldr is that it’s all the NFL pushing football on kids but that’s really diluting the story
