Just a person trying to adult. One day, I might actually write down all the fanfic ideas collecting dust in my brain.

"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence

[carbomcoco]

they did the research in the first place because they believed you and wanted to tell people about it. they are not our enemies.

[aphony-cree]

people always go "Instead of spending all that time on a study they could have just listened to us when we said these thing happen"

they did listen, that's how studies work, they asked people about their experiences and put all the data together in a nice package that can be cited

the mexican football team has a 17 yrs old player and one of the funniest outcomes of this is that he cannot appear in any ad for gambling or drinking so he only appears in candy and milk advertisements. his first world cup and he's not even legally allowed to drive. his nickname is "morita" (little berry). he's three apples tall.

[lelouch]

they couldn't put him in the beer campaign so he was represented by a bunch of berries

[galaxycepheus]

[ID. A beer advertisement with a row of cans, each with the face of a player from Mexico's men's football team, except for the aforementioned morita. There is a small pile of berries beside the last of the beer cans, which has been highlighted with a red circle. End ID.]

Dick was only 19 when he told Donna, “I feel as if I’ve known and loved you all my life.” 

That’s some platonic soulmate shit right there lads.

[hood-ex]

Donna was only 19 when she told Dick, “I’m so glad that you’re giving me away, Dick. I wouldn’t dream of anyone else.”

And then she told Dick she loved him right before she walked down the aisle.

[kyoshi-lesbians]

my controversial opinion is I don’t think Zuko was confused by “my first girlfriend turned into the moon”

[kyoshi-lesbians]

he was there during siege of the North. he infiltrated the spirit oasis. he has an uncle who studies spirits and the spirit world. he watched the sky go dark then the moon suddenly reappear like everyone else in the entire world did. and most importantly he watched zhao get eaten by a giant godzilla fish spirit.

[kyoshi-lesbians]

his entire life since he saw that beam of blue-white light in the south pole has been ‘this day has already been so goddamn weird’

[edgar-allan-possum]

The only really new information was that that was Sokka’s girlfriend

[library-graffiti]

Important opinion in the tags that I need to have be part of the post:

[clearascountryair]

Also, Iroh was there? He literally watched Sokka make out with the moon spirit. And you want to tell me that a romantic sap like him would not have immediately told Zuko about this romantic tragedy? Please, Zuko has known about this for ages, he just knows that this is not an acceptable situation in which to say “yeah, I know.”

[terriwriting]

Sokka: “My girlfriend turned into the moon.”

Zuko: “I know.” “Yes.” “She sure did.” “Uh huh.” “Tell me something new.” “Are we still talking about that?” “That’s rough, buddy.”

[alexseanchai]

[image: tags by samwisethebold: #it’s not that he doesn’t get what sokka means #it’s that how on earth do you respond to that]

[uberguber89]

When you put it like that, this is actually a legendary display of tact on Zuko’s part

[beaft]

my mythology pet peeve is when someone describes a scenario in which they keep nearly getting something and then having it snatched away, and everyone's like "one must imagine sisyphus" no!!! one must imagine TANTALUS!!! sisyphus = being made to perform a pointless, aggravating task over and over without ever making any progress. tantalus = being offered a glorious reward only for it to vanish as soon as you reach for it. they are NOT the same

#it is deeply important to me that you understand ilya had a parasocial relationship with scott hunter before making it into the league#in this HC of course we're going with the TV show age for scott not the books#ilya a) has a gaydar that crosses continents and b) is so deeply and confusingly attracted to the kind of people he imagines he should be#on old hockey forums and there are random comments in russian and that is ilya. ilya can rattle off all of scott hunter's stats up to 09#the first time boston plays the admirals after ilya joins he is vibrating out of his SKIN#he practices chirps in his hotel room. if scott hunter scrapped with him it would be his little teenage dream come true#you could wallpaper a house with how hard he'd cum#but in the moment he fumbles it. he forgets one of the words. it's horrifying he wants to die. he is going to commit sepuku with a skate#and scott is just like 'ok rook. nice try'. an interviewer asks about what ilya said in the post game interview and how his english is#and scott doesnt even answer just say that he's a good player and he looks forward to seeing him develop on and off the ice#ilya watches the interview with his teenage hormones going all over the place all that embarrassment and horniness and also feeling so so#fucking tired already of everyone around him speaking english (NOT EVEN WELL) and acting like he is the stupid one#and scott didnt even say anything mean but it is too late. ilya has displaced all of this onto him#and a blood feud is born

Shane Hollander who is anxious that he will be met with hostility and accusations if his team finds out about his relationship with Ilya Rozanov being met with hostility and accusations when his team finds out about his relationship with Ilya Rozanov

[triassictriserratops]

I really need more people to truly grasp that all of Shane's fears in Heated Rivalry and in The Long Game were not just a result of his anxious mind.

Men like Shane and Scott and Troy - their paranoia and their fears are VERY much based in the reality of the culture and language they are exposed to day after day in their locker rooms.

They have had to watch and listen to their colleagues, men who they would in large part consider to be like brothers, spout cruel and vile shit about queer people.

They have likely had to watch other athletes be scratched or iced out of good game minutes, be traded on a whim, and otherwise lose job opportunities even if they were at the top of their games simply because they hinted that they might want to come out of the closet.

When The Long Game comes out and people inevitably get furious with Shane for dragging his feet in wanting to come out publicly even though it's hurting Ilya not to, I need you all to remember that the NHL is at the core of this story. And the NHL is one of the most homophobic sports leagues in the WORLD.

The Game Changer series is not a love letter to hockey. It is a love letter to the queer men who love hockey, but are not loved back by hockey.

[raincitygirl76]

Also, the only reason women’s hockey (at least in North America) is currently inclusive is because of activist players and their supporters putting in the fucking work to make it inclusive. It didn’t happen by magic.

It’s worse in the NHL (and in men’s/boys hockey in general) because there’s a whole hell of a lot more money involved than there is in the PWHL and the Olympic women’s hockey teams. But that doesn’t mean women’s and girls’ hockey has always been inclusive. Even when there was no money involved, plenty of people were dicks about queer women in sports. And will be again, if players and fans don’t stay vigilant.

The NHL is just worse. Because the fan base and many of the players trend socially conservative. And because there’s so much damn money in men’s hockey that a macho image is paramount. Men’s hockey is an entire industry, supporting a lot of people financially, both directly and indirectly.

colin doesn’t want to be spokesperson bc he’s already busy posting full time about welsh independence and he just doesn’t have room in his schedule for gay rights

[spidergvven]

this person gets it

[spidergvven]

whenever journalists asks invasive questions about his sexuality colin just responds in welsh like “did you know that many former british colonies have anti gay laws that were enacted during british colonial rule? the legacy of british colonization is still hurting people….and that’s why im here today to talk about welsh independence..”

[single-use-ship-of-theseus]

[image description: tags that read “#he should hold his gay icon status hostage. journalists can get one (1) gay thing for every 3 to 5 welsh independence opinions #or he could just only answer questions about gay rights in welsh. he actually should do that if he ever winds up coming out. might be fun #ted lasso #colin hughes” End description]

Yall, someone out there, some little boy or little girl, with a drunk abusive father, has a poster of Jamie Tartt on their wall. They're practicing football every day and stay up all night watching compilations of Jamie playing football.

One day that kid is going to save up their money and get a meet and greet with Jamie Tartt and Jamie is going to sign that poster for them. He's going to tell them to be a good lad and promise to meet them on the pitch one day.

Jamie Tartt is going to be Roy Kent to some little boy or girl who needs him to be.

[jamiesfootball]

Actually now considering (thanks to previous post) a fic where Jamie ends up talking to Ted instead of Roy in Amsterdam about what happened the first time he visited Amsterdam

Then Ted responding to it with that sort of. “Oh I know a lot of guys who’d have loved that.” “Sounds like it was a bonding moment.” Just another moment with Ted, like his ‘sometimes tough dads make great athletes’

Jamie clams up, muttering ‘I guess,’ and never once mentions the part where he doesn’t actually remember it

thinking about statues of Grace being built all around Erid years after his passing so he can continue to watch over Eridians as they sleep

[cabinette]

[nadalffc]

messi hat trick on his first wc match after the championship which made him the player with the most wc goals ever (tying w klose) yes he is the goat end of discussion

[witchysoda]

Imagine Grace gets mugged and Court (older brother) tracks down the guy because “no one hurts my family” and the dude is covered in injuries and a broken hand/leg and is like “I already got shaken down by another guy because of this (Grace)” and that’s how Court finds out Grace has a stalker (Driver)

[sparklycartoonfairy]

I’ve seen people do au’s of Bloody Mary where Grace’s twin brother is Colt Seavers from the fall guy which I honestly love but I haven’t seen anyone do what I consider to be the funniest option available which is make Ryland Grace an escaped Ken from Barbieland.

Think about it throughout PHM Ryland never talks about having a family he mentions having a girlfriend once in the book all we really know about her is that they moved in together briefly and that she had a lot of stuff.

Let’s say after Ken and Barbie break up. Ken decides to go out on his own and stumbles upon the real world. There he learns about science and becomes completely invested in that pathway. He either eventually figures out how to become a human or he stays a doll which could explain why he was the only one to survive his hyper sleep (and so he can live with rocky longer)

It could explain why he so heavily believes in non water based life so much because he WAS a non water based life form. Water doesn’t exist in Barbieland it’s all plastic.

Furthermore this could explain why he decided to become a teacher being a doll previously it’s only reasonable to assume he’d enjoy kid’s presence the same way Barbie does.

He also loves the beach and we all know that Ken’s previous job was beach

In the Barbie movie the CEO of Mattel states “we’re not worried about Ken…. Ever.” Meaning that it’s likely they wouldn’t care at all if a Ken left Barbieland and perused an education became a scientist and eventually a school teacher.

All this to say imagine Simon and Grace getting into some kind of fight where Simon is like

“You have no idea what it’s like to live your life forced to be a cog in the system. Knowing that what you want doesn’t matter, nobody caring about who you are not even your name matters”etc. etc.

and the entire time Grace is having PTSD flashbacks of this:

And then responds with:

“You wouldn’t last an hour in the place I grew up”
