Multishipping Mess

Hi! My name is Nicole (or just Nick is fine), my pronouns are she/her/hers. This is my sideblog to repost all my favorite ships. I'll try to correspond my header with my current obsession and tag all the appriopriate ships. I eventually wanna answer headcannon asks, post my own writing and generally shitpost lol

Account Update: I am currently Hockey trash!! I absolutely love the Pittsburgh Penguins (and surprisingly the entire sport overall). But really I am constantly squealing about Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby.

[thornescratch]

Well what IF they kissed at the giant life-sized Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom bobbleheads, huh!?

Puritanism is getting worse around the globe and conservatives and fascists will absolutely be first going harder against porn, then use that against queer people. You HAVE to realise this and oppose anti porn measures and laws, be in solidarity with sex workers, and listen to them when they call this shit out. It's going to be vitally important.

[bundibird]

Reminder that keeping porn legal means that pornstars have legal protections that they will lose if porn is made illegal. Reminder that keeping porn legal means there are legal standards that can be put in place and enforced which results in better safety for all who are involved in porn's creation.

Reminder that porn will never stop being a thing. It just won't. If it's made illegal, then it will continue to be created and distributed - its just that it will now be done under the table, and with no safety regulations or protections for anyone.

Yes, the hard-right's ultimate plan is to use porn as a gateway from which to attack queer people, but even if that wasn't their plan, you should want to protect the legality of porn anyway.

Keeping porn legal means that the chances of sexual assault on those who work in the industry are reduced, and means that victims of assault are able to pursue legal action against their attackers. Keeping porn legal means that human trafficking is decreased, and it gives victims of human trafficking a legally supported escape route that would be lost if porn were made illegal.

Keeping porn legal means that anyone who is involved in making it - regardless of whether theyre making it simply because they want to, or because they're financially desperate -- is granted a measure of protection that they otherwise would not be. People love to raise the "but porn is made by desperate people who sell their body to survive," but a) some people make porn because they like it, and b) someone who is desperate enough to sell their body will do so regardless of whether it's legal or not. But when it's legal, that desperate person has far more protections and is less likely to be taken advantage of than when it's illegal.

Keeping porn legal protects people. Making it illegal will harm people. It's that simple.

"But it's demeaning!"

That's a you problem. No, really - it's your opinion is that sex work is demeaning, but I've had some really demeaning jobs that were legal and "proper". Just because a job involves sex doesn't mean it has less value than being a salesperson, or an accountant.

not to be "comment on fanfic even if they are oooold"

But I just read a pretty good fic published in 2014-2015 (you know, roughly TEN YEARS AGO) and I was like, damn this is so cool, I have to leave a comment, even if you know, they probably wont see it...

The author replied less than an hour later.

[nyxelestia]

Important heads up to younger or newer fans: AO3 sends comments and kudos digests to e-mail addresses. We don't have to check an AO3-specific inbox nor look at specific fics to see comments. I can log out of AO3 tomorrow and ten or twenty years from now I will still get e-mails from AO3 containing comments -- and once I've read it, well, it's not difficult to log back in and reply.

[mysteryteacup]

This is also why leaving mean or negative comments is rude and the rule of fandom (although it's a rule much older than AO3, since most/all old fanfic sites did this - livejournal not being a site meant for fics) is "Don't Like? Don't Read".

An AO3 comment is not a review.

It's fanmail.

It is a letter you are sending directly to the author, which happens to also - if the author approves it - go up under the story. You are sending a letter directly to the author.

The Government's Page on the Constitution is down.

Not concerning at all...

https://www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-white-house/our-government/the-constitution/

Here it is on the Archives, please save it and be sure to cross-reference if the page does go back up, in case changes have been made. Stay Safe, friends.

The fact that “Elon musk does two Nazi salutes” isn’t blowing up my push notifications is the best example I could possibly give of the media’s failure to do fucking anything

[goldencurryfanaccount]

Very bold of PBS to call it like it is on Twitter of all places

[irate-iguana]

For those who don’t know, Elon Musk has recently been directing his assholery towards Wikipedia — calling them ‘Wokepedia’ due to the amount they spend on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and calling for people to stop giving them money “until they restore balance to their editing authority” —, now is a great time to consider donating to Wikipedia!

[headspace-hotel]

Someday, Elon Musk's Wikipedia page will be edited to read "was" instead of "is."

[rafeandonlyrafe]

well 🧍‍♀️ as a reminder this blog is NOT a safe space for trump supporters but it IS a safe place for women, queers, trans ppl, people of color, undocumented people, and any marginalized group.

[multishippingtrashfire]

I have conflicting feelings on the Eller trade:

- At least we’re starting to try trading earlier, despite it giving me anxiety 😂

- Yes, absolutely clear some Cap space where we can

- Eller was a middle-above average of the pack performer and I guess picks are a fair trade for him, but I want to know who is the expected fill for his line.

- We have 10 or more (iirc) picks in the draft, are we gathering picks to pull a higher trade? I could see this working on the Habs or the Preds maybe.

- Why was this done before Grzelych was put on waivers? What are we going to do about Graves?

Not feeling great, but not thinking this is an indicator of full rebuild just yet.

[yabagofmilfs]

i’m not getting too worked up about it because it won’t happen anyway and it’s more than likely meant as a scare tactic for the team. but. like. explain to me why 87 is off the table but not the guy who is the only one who’s been consistently producing fuck all, has a pulse even when we’re losing, and was moved to 87’s line to help him produce. why does sid get deferred to and protected always, regardless of performance, but not geno. the disrespect staggers me every time. geno shouldn’t be protected just because sid would lose touch with the fabric of reality if geno wasn’t on his team. geno’s earned it on his own merit. why is he mr 101 even in his own fucking organization.

[multishippingtrashfire]

Also I am not yet saying G retires at the end of his contract, especially if he continues to play well. I am keeping hope afloat, and no one burst my bubble.

Including fuckass Kyle 🗣️🗣️🗣️

So stop disrespecting Geno!

[multishippingtrashfire]

Lol I made an excel sheet with some of the Penguins stats for the season and it is without a doubt our defense is some dogshit. Like wow.

[multishippingtrashfire]

honestly, if Geno is on the block for trade, that shows me two things:

1. Kyle is stupid

2. The Penguins are going full rebuild and kissing any chance of playoffs, let alone a run, goodbye until after Sid.

Geno was the one quarterbacking the team for that stretch of games where Sid was off, plus he’s kept his drive up in Washington and against the Stars. Whatever someone would send in return of him would still not be enough to pull the team to contenders unless coaching was also changed and more roster (A LOT MORE) pieces moved. Sid alone cannot drag the team to the Playoffs, just like Sid and Geno alone can’t get them there. So why would you get rid of one of the only other producers/scorers? And trade value isn’t a good answer here.

The facts:

- the league has advanced beyond Sully’s system (it makes me think that’s why we SUCK at shootouts)

- Our roster is still overly top heavy in shooting, and we’re still under average for the rest of the league

- Our defense is dead and getting worse (and the anvil is Graves (partial NMC from Dubas btw) and Grzelcyk).

- Our goaltenders are dying out there, because the team in front of them is failing to protect them

Moving Geno will solve maybe the defense piece if you get a top defenseman in return and offload him with someone else but then you also have to realize the trade off is killing the locker room and also killing the fanbase. PPG will absolutely be despondent, especially since trading G is obviously not the answer.

[multishippingtrashfire]

On lowest of keys: FSG should consider offloading Kyle before they do Geno. I mean every player Kyle has brought in has been a non-factor, except Ned for the most part.

[multishippingtrashfire]

honestly, if Geno is on the block for trade, that shows me two things (and I am aware G has NMC):

1. Kyle is stupid

2. The Penguins are going full rebuild and kissing any chance of playoffs, let alone a run, goodbye until after Sid.

It’s definitely time for Sid start barking again.

[multishippingtrashfire]

Mike Sullivan and the entire coaching staff right now:

[multishippingtrashfire]

popping in from my social media hiatus to say: Smith, Graves, and a couple of picks need to be top priorities for a trade over Jake. Also seems risky, because you need someone who will click with Sid.
