lose yourself in wild romance (sports)

corvus, he/she mostly hockey, very much an rpf zone nhl: flyers, stars; pwhl: fleet

[majorjuniorhockey]

sports are about childhood ambition and blood and the unending impossible dream of becoming greater than yourself

[majorjuniorhockey]

sports are about gold and contracts and knowing you can never go back and moving forward anyways

I am kissing this photographer and the lighting tech SO hard rn

[saggeses]

I’m gonna be so fr rn, yall gotta stop acting like women’s sports only contributions/offerings are 1) that most of the athletes are queer 2) some sort of “morally pure” version of the sport. you don’t realize that you’re doing it but you’re de-valuing them to a point of queerness + morality meter. which the latter is just insane when there are POS’ amongst women’s sports

[saggeses]

“Don’t watch the NHL, watch the PWHL! They’re actually gay!” why is that the only selling point to you

If you're comfortable accusing anyone of faking disability, you're not a real ally to disabled people

[teaboot]

One time when I was a kid a group of girls and I had to treat another student for hypothermia by ourselves because she had so many invisible health issues that the adults we asked for help didn't believe us. The student in question was actively hallucinating. When I finally ran for help the people I grabbed were slow as shit to respond, casually joking about how "dramatic" the person in question was.

The kid was picked up by an ambulance 30 minutes later.

Now as an adult working in security I get SO MANY folks- upper-middle aged mostly- coming to me to 'rat out' people they think are faking it.

I was once sent into a bathroom because a client demanded that the "fucker won't get out, so go drag them out"- I was NEVER going to do that, so I did a wellness check instead. You know who it was? A person recently released from the hospital after a car accident. They had a hole in their skull and major hearing loss. They couldn't answer the owner because they couldn't HEAR the owner.

Another time about a homeless man who got around town by kicking the ground from his wheelchair. "You know he doesn't actually need that thing, his legs work fine, it's just for pity points"- Oh, so he's not paralyzed, his wheelchair is performative? Funny story Dale, I actually know that guy, he was backed over by a truck and has chronic pain from his shattered pelvis. But sure, let's make him stand up and walk everywhere so nobody feels too bad for him and tries to help him or something.

"She doesn't need that scooter, I've seen her get out of it."

"Look how fat he is, because he just rides around and refuses to get up."

"She doesn't really need that cane- she comes here without it all the time"

Sincerely, truly, from the bottom of my heart- as someone who isn't physically disabled but hears this shit all the time- fuck off

[roanlovesvampires]

Lestat's recollection of Detroit is honestly so fucking funny and definitely inaccurate at some parts

he's like "first, i took a piss in these eco-friendly urinals. yes, this is VERY IMPORTANT!"

"then a nonbinary vampire and her- i mean their- friend ALSO took huge pisses! she- i mean they- pissed hands-free with their incredibly strong pelvic floor muscles. yes, the vampire lestat respects pronouns, write that down."

"i always wash my hands after using the bathroom. even when i'm fucked up on LSD and ecstasy! even if the other people at the urinal didn't wash their hands! yes Daniel, this is VERY important to write down!"

"and then we had elevator sex so hot that the bellboy joined in!"

"i would have EASILY beat the Fang Gang normally, but you see, i did too many drugs and fucked too hard. it was the sex legs, i swear!"

[sugarcarnation]

and the way throughout the entire episode two common themes were daniel asking lestat if he was a stutterer as a child (and lestat ignoring the question) and lestat constantly reaching out to his mother begging her to give him the slightest bit of attention. and then when she finally comes back to him he starts stuttering

I love overpowered nepo fledgling daniel who can take down an entire room of older vampires

happy best friends day does everyone remember when miro bought roopes hifk jersey at his first charity golf thing for like 10k

louis: racing ahead again, mr. molloy. let the tale seduce you.

lestat: [absolutely wrecked out of his gourd] you wanna fuck the tale. i know you wanna fuck the tale dan. you wanna fuck the tale so bad it makes you look stupid. the tale wants to fuck you.

[i-know-the-enddc]

what I fucking love is how tvl was written in the 80s and lestat is constantly sayinf shit like “as the kids say 🤪 that’s so rad!!” or whatever, and to me, reader of the vampire lestat in this modern age, that does NOT register the way anne rice intended it.

like it is supposed to feel jarring and insane. it is supposed to feel like lestat has been violently submerged in modern young people trends and culture and is now repeating all the new words he learned like a beautiful fresh baby. but because the book is from 1985, all I think is oh interesting huh I didn’t know that slang term even originated in the 80s how vintage how retro how lestat wow he’s so embarrassing aw aw so cute.

but amc in all their incredible genius decided that honoring anne rice’s original vision of writing an extremely modern and weird book that fully embodied the era it was written in was more important then bringing back the 80s nostalgia thing that streaming services love and it’s incredible to me. now I get to listen to lestat say shit like “labubu FOMO cosplay reddit discord Gen Z more like gen SNOOZE 🤪🤪🤪 safe space pronouns donald trump labubu tiktok dance 🕺🏻” and suddenly I understand what it felt like to be a young anne rice reader in 1985. God…. I understand.
