trinity santos is a study in fandom misogyny because they gave her all the characteristics fandoms usually salivate for in men, being gruff, quippy and misunderstood with a tragic backstory but a heart of gold beneath it all. they put all this into her AND let her be a lesbian. she's everything you could ever want in a character but she's not a man so half the fandom either hates her or constantly mischaracterizes her as petty, callous and aggressive while doing mental gymnastics to baby the male characters around her

Are you America?

Admiral Janeway: you mean you want me to space walk in the middle of a warp bubble? *Pause* I was a salamander once nothing can be as difficult as that

The kids: uh .... What?

Kathryn, ma'am, I love you but maybe don't traumatize the children on day one of meeting them. They already gotta deal with a mind swap.

[seattletorrents]

ok last vent of the day but I do kind of resent the "now seattle fans know how we felt" posts because they imply that a bunch of us weren't pwhl fans before we got teams and that we don't have empathy and it shows a weird need to punish people for things they had no say in. I'm not mad at detroit or san jose or vegas fans and I hope we go a good few years with no expansions both so we can rest and so they don't have to experience this because it sucks real bad.

Anyway it isn't that deep so you can ignore me, and I know that sports fandoms Feel Things Deeply and rivalries and bad blood can be intense, and I avoid reading comments on other social media because I feel like ig and tiktok pwhl fans are insane. It's just like. Can't we all just have fun together? This is a game, it's fun. like right now it doesn't feel fun but the wounds will heal and November will roll around sooner than you expect and we will put on our gear and go to games and scream until we lose our voices and we will have fun again. And in 4 more cities even more people are also going to be able to do this!!!

It will be different but it will be ok

It will be different but it will be ok

It's also extremely unlikely that we'll go through a draft like this again. The league is expanding by 50%. When they do expand again, I expect it to be only 1-2 teams at a time. Each team will lose at most 1 or 2 players.

[dykeslovehockey]

until i see an ian kennedy tweet müller is staying in boston

[dykeslovehockey]

hey so literally 30 seconds after posting this pwhl report posts. fuck me i guess

[rebel-transbian]

It hasn't been officially confirmed. That suggests that it isn't a done deal. Muller may be reconsidering, perhaps weighing an option from another expansion team or even a new offer to stay in Boston. We also heard that Hilary Knight was heading to Detroit but now she's backed off and might be going to Vegas.

[queer-as-city-folk]

I hate American Labor because what do you mean the child bombing plane factory is union while the grocery store I go to every week would probably close down if the workers there tried to unionize

[isuggestrevolution]

i have a suggestion

[queer-as-city-folk]

I doubt that making the union bosses girls will fix anything

[kickair8p]

But unionizing is generally a good idea.

Don't think there's a labor union for you? The IWW is a union for all workers:

www.iww.org/about/

They've also got info on how to deal with variations on “If you try to unionize we'll close the store/site/business and you'll all be out of a job!” threats.

"came back wrong" but it's food that you heated up in the microwave

[abalidoth]

OK SO

For anyone who hasn't heard my Microwave Rant:

Microwaves are designed to be used at a broad range of power levels. If you're getting bad results reheating your food, and you're doing everything on full blast, try a lower power setting! 50% power for twice the time, just give it a shot. It gives the heat time to spread evenly, and prevents overcooking of parts that are exposed to more radiation.

People complain about reheated pizza a lot -- that's bc overheating the crust makes it tough and chewy. I usually do pizza on 30% power for THREE times as long because it's especially vulnerable -- and my crust always comes out nice and tender.

I think there's a good metaphor for Came Back Wrong here too: if you actually take the time to do your necromantic ritual and/or unholy experiment right, and don't rush it at 100% power, you're likely to get better results.

[mouseonamoose]

Since reading this post and following its advice, my microwaved good comes out so much better.

[archenarrow]

Since reading this post a d following its advice, my necromantic rituals have come out so much better.

If the PWHL ever gets mascots I think the Torrent's should be an otter

I see your otter and I raise you a mink

Nah it should just be Buoy with a bow in her hair. We can say it's Buoy's sister.

Arcadia Bay:Where are they now?

I came up with where are they now scenarios for the other Arcadia Bay characters since D9 refuses to give them any material.

Warren:Became a Chemistry professor in college or maybe he took Ms Grant's place, while on the side he became a Markiplier/Cr1TiKaL esque streamer/vlogger for fun. I also think he'd find a girl or boy and move on from Max(but perhaps they start something if Max doesn't get back with Chloe)

Kate:Writes a children's book and has a podcast advocating against bullying and being a voice for mental health. Oh and Kate took her sisters and got out of that dogmatic religious household the first chance she got.

Victoria:She leads the Chase Space. She wrote a book about surviving Jeffershit. and goes on TED talks and school seminars about why bullying is never okay

Taylor:I could see Taylor pursuing in becoming a nurse after everything with her mom

Courtney:Owns her own fashion line

Dana:Plans a Blackwell reunion, but went pro as a cheerleader for the Seattle Seahawks

Juliet:Made it as a reporter

Daniel and Brooke:Daniel makes it as an artist and Brooke an engineer, they actually it it off at that Miyazaki exhibit and eventually got married

Stella:I think she'd be in business or a true crime podcastor

Evan:Successful photographer and his photographs featured in a gallery

Luke:Conspiracy podcast bro

Hayden:Is in the Weed business, grows his own strains of buds

Nathan:In a mental health facility getting the help he needs and getting regular visits from Kristine, Victoria and Hayden

Ms Grant:Became the new Principal of Blackwell and actually turned Blackwell around into the school Max dreamed it to be

Wells:Was ousted for bribery and caught drunk as a skunk

Samuel:Still continues as the janitor and helping students on their paths

Joyce:Because of the timeline shenanigans, she continues living and happier that she and Chloe have a stronger relationship

David:idk if they mention how they deal with David in Reunion, but I still think he should be in exile in Away, cause fuck him

Sean Prescott:Gets busted for corruption and tax evasion

Jefferson:Either Executed or the general population of prison gets him

[rebel-transbian]

I have a controversial take on Kate: I think she might become a pastor of some liberal Christian denomination, writing and illustrating children's books on the side. I don't think she'd break with religion entirely.

[dgcatanisiri]

Isn’t it interesting that, despite TALKING about wanting to encourage new and younger viewers to watch Star Trek, the two shows that actually ARE centered on settings and characters that are closest in age and tone for younger audiences than “traditional” Trek fare, have only been given two seasons?

I mean, there’s also the fact that Star Trek survived as it has because it was run in syndication when TV proper was based on catching things at the right time or in reruns, together as families, and the ratings systems have in no way been changed to account for the different ways we actually watch things now, BUT…

Paramount, if you want these things, why don’t you give them a chance to actually ACCOMPLISH those goals?

[rebel-transbian]

Honestly, Paramount should put Prodigy on YouTube (with ads, of course) so it could be accessible to people who don't have Paramount+. Probably some of TOS, TNG, DS9, and VOY. That way people can get into the shows and then want a Paramount+ subscription to get the rest.

[prismatic-bell]

Oh I need nuance.

The age where I had a drink-drink, like a glass of wine (in fact it was indeed a glass of wine, it was terrible wine, when my sister still drank she loved super-dry wines and I hate them), was 17, at my sister's wedding.

But when I was five or six my mom was hosting a barbecue and I was being pestery about wanting a Grown Up Drink like everyone else (they got fun bottles, I had a stupid plastic cup), so she told me I could have a beer if I took a drink of hers and liked it.

(I assume she knew exactly how this would go.)

I did not have a full beer, but I did cry.

I still hate beer, by the way.

[rebel-transbian]

I had some wine at a Seder when I was about 14. Didn't like it. To be fair, it was Manischewitz.

I started actually drinking when I was 23. My best friend convinced me to try some mixed drinks. Many years later, he told me he did so under orders from my mom (our families are very close). I still drink extremely sparingly.

hey sceptres. what if (and stay with me on this) we spend time in the offensive zone and perhaps even shoot pucks on net

[doubleca5t]

Umamusume is an extremely funny series to introduce to someone because not only is the core premise absurd (gijinkas of famous Japanese racehorses who run races that mirror the careers of the horses they're based on while also being idols), but it feels like every other writing and worldbuilding decision is somehow even more absurd than the last

[doubleca5t]

The series takes place at what is ostensibly a high school but the umas have careers that occur years if not decades apart. The umas do not age, no one appears to ever leave Tracen Academy if they don't want to and there is no satisfying explanation for how this works

Despite, again, all of then ostensibly being in high school, some umas act like grown adults who pay taxes and others act like they're no more than 8 years old

Canonically, no one gambles on the uma races.

The creators had to patch some of the story dialogue because they accidentally created a timeline where the modern day Republic of Ireland has a monarchy

Super Creek wants you to do age regression with her because she likes playing mommy

Admire Vega had a twin sister who was aborted in the womb and said dead fetus is now a literal ghost that actively haunts her

Matikanefukukitaru also has a dead sister and she isn't being haunted but she does have religious psychosis

The creators get permission from the owners of all the horses before putting them in the game. The owner of Daiwa Scarlet allegedly approved her inclusion in the game on the one condition that she be given bigger boobs than her main rival, Vodka

Vodka drinks tea from a flask

Agnes Digital writes erotic friend fiction of the other umas

Streets have dedicated uma lanes

The Statue of Liberty is an umamusume

Long phone

Marvelous Sunday has her own personal pocket dimension

Neo Universe is an alien

Biko Pegasus is a huge fan of an in-universe tokusatsu show called Carrot Man. This wouldn't be that crazy, except Cygames produced an entire 20 minute episode of said show complete with guest appearance by Biko Pegasus' seiyu acting as her

[rebel-transbian]

I have to say, if I were the creators I would have stuck with my guns and said that in this universe Ireland is indeed an independent monarchy under the House of O'Neill.

[tanknaka]

hey
