I love hockey, women’s hockey especially. Do not get me wrong here. I am seeing a general refusal and or unwillingness to engage with the idea that the problem goes beyond one player. Britta Curl Salemme moving to Detroit does not absolve Minnesota of their reaction to trans fans or their protection of her. She is not the only one in the league that holds views like this. Holding her out as the only one allows every other person who holds those views to go unquestioned. Saying that the “evil is gone” just because she has left. The team does not cut it. There is a general culture that needs to change. It is not just her.

Can I be honest with yall I don't want to hear SHIT against cishets at pride this year

"But it's not FOR them!!!" The biggest military power in the world belongs to a christofascist nation overseen by a felon found guilty of 34 federal crimes and has greenlit a gestapo with more direct funding than the entire military of Canada for the purpose of ethnic cleansing.

At this point if anyone is trying to exclude anyone benignly pro-queer from a pro-queer space I'm just going to assume you're a fed or something idk like something something destabilize the movement from within or whatever

Hey. We all know that using Britta as a figure head for the league’s conservativism right is to point out blatant support for conservatism and bigotry? And that every person no matter what team they are rooting for should be using those moment to support and uplift marginalized communities in the ways they are able to.

I literally don’t care about Britta Curl as a person. Regardless of anything else the way the cultural landscape moved she has become a symbol. (Which is just a thing that happens. Our brains do that.)

So when we are talking about Curl and bigotry in the league we are also talking about resources and actionable steps right? No matter what you think about her or the discourse you are doing things to talk about or combat the most toxic parts of hockey culture and give support to the communities most effect. Right?

Ten years later, this bit still slaps. They made a great pun and realized they could be nice/inclusive with it too.

RIP Marjane Satrapi, author of the amazing graphic novels Persepolis about living during the fundamentalist revolution in Iran in the 70’s and 80’s. She also created the animated movie based on the graphic novels, which is where these gifs come from.

happy pride to the nhl player who was preparing to come out and changed his mind. I hope he's happy and loved.

this is your random reminder to CHECK IF YOU'RE STILL HAVING FUN

are you enjoying scrolling tumblr? watching youtube? reading that book? playing that game? drawing that art? doing that activity? if not,

YOU CAN STOP AND DO SOMETHING ELSE

you don't have to stick to something that you are doing for fun if it isn't fun for you anymore. You can come back! If you've loved it before you are likely to love it again! but you can stop!

Don't get stuck in a loop of doing something that you think should be fun when it isn't! You can put it down for a bit! Maybe that's the very thing that will make it fun again later!
