ilya in the other books is going, “I see that you’re gay. I see that you like this person. I see that you are miserable. You should do something about that.” and he stands there and waits for someone else to say that they notice him too and nobody ever does.

Longtime readers may be aware of how much I relish an excuse to bully a company, so I'm sharing the wealth;

Clothing company Patagonia is currently sueing drag queen Pattie Gonia for "irreparable” harm to their brand.

To be clear; Pattie named herself after the region in South America.

So Pattie is asking people to politely ask Patagonia to drop the lawsuit.

I'm extending the invitation to all of you, because sueing a drag queen for 'infringement' in the current political cultural landscape is vile. Especially a drag queen who has raised millions of dollars for non-profits, uses her platform to raise awareness for climate activism, and fully aligns with Patagonia's apparent climate-conscious mission statement.

They're claiming they're sueing for $1. They're actually asking her to stop using her name, and pay over $1 million in legal fees. They're straight up harassing her.

In contrast, drag queen Jan Sport has a Jansport bag line. It's that easy to just... work with a queen.

Anyway. Be respectful(ish), but feel free to be annoying on Patagnoia's socials, asking them to 'DROP THE LAWSUIT'

I think they have a twitter and tiktok too!

Let's all hold hands and agree that in season 2 both Shane and Ilya are trying their best and we will not pit two bad bitches against each other. 🤝

I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.

He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense

[status-quo-hater]

Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.

My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.

Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.

He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM

Obsessed with Ilya struggling to straddle Shane for a second bc Shane's first instinct after being pushed onto a bed is to spread his legs

Of course the hockey world is scrambling after the Centaurs announce that they just signed Shane Hollander and in an interview Scott Hunter says something like "I am so happy for Hollander and Rozanov and maybe this will start some conversations about what goes on in our locker rooms and on the ice and what kind of organisation we want to be" and then he adds "but also as a player, I am really not looking forward to going up against both of them so, thanks, montreal"

and then something like this

becomes the sports equivalent of "thanks obama"

writing is just sitting in front of a computer and making up problems for imaginary people while ignoring your own. fun and casual hobby.

no matter how bad things get, the world is still a beautiful place because it has archive of our own in it

What if we win?

What if the children go to schools unafraid of tear gas and bullets?

What if the birds come back, and the bees are healed, and every species moves from endangered, to threatened, to thriving?

What if the rainforest ADVANCES?

What if every parking lot had solar panels? What if every structure had solar panels? What if we built climbing gyms and terraced gardens in the skeletons of old coal power plants?

What if you baked your neighbor bread, and they shared their home-grown blackberries?

What if every person who needed a home, had one? What if every person who needed healing was healed?

What if every body was treasured for what it was, not what it should be?

What if every trans child's parents attended their graduation, their wedding, their new-name-day?

What if every warehouse became a closed-circle repair station? Goods flowing out, and back, and out again? What if landfills started to SHRINK?

What if the water and air were clean? What if there was enough public transit that the cars dwindled, leaving the streets safe for kids on bikes, evening deer, midnight cats and foxes?

What if we win?

How would you win?

insane to me how, to some people, this is not a common sense

[ntrider]

is there any trait less attractive than a lack of curiosity

[mybloodstream-caffeine]

I find it fucking hilarious to think that Ilya was all geared up to gently coax the nervous ingenue Golden Boy into bed, probably even willing to settle for some heavy petting since he came on so strong in the showers and he didn't want Hollander to bolt like a scared rabbit,,, only to be confronted full force by Shane Hollander Super Slut who needed Ilya's cock in his mouth roughly 3.5 seconds after kissing him. And this is AFTER Shane did his coy little "This is such a bad idea~😫" routine, mind you!!! Me thinks the lady does indeed protest too much!!! Harlot!!!!

headcanon where yuna and david get into a car accident. it’s not catastrophic - yes the car is totaled, but they both walked away and went to the hospital to get checked out just in case. thank god for the hollander family love of boring and safe cars.

shane is a bit shaken up of course - but once he sees his parents afterwards and hears yuna talking about lawyers, he knows they’re fine.

ilya, however, is not fine. he pretends he is and attempts to lighten the atmosphere. but later that night, at home, shane finds ilya crying in their closet. what would ilya do without yuna and david? he’s already lost one set of parents. shane pulls him into his arms and rubs his back until ilya is sleepy in his arms.

even though it’s the longest thing in the world, life feels too short sometimes, ilya thinks.

my friend's discord server has a "proof of touch grass" channel where they post pics of them doing regular activities outdoors/in public. i think many online spaces could benefit from such a thing

[weaselle]

when i was super depressed - like struggling to eat anything barely able to get out of bed to pee depressed - my good friend asked me every day to send her a picture of me holding a leaf and a picture of a meal i was eating and it helped me significantly

(also, she was never judgey - if my meal was a single potato chip she would simply say good job eating a potato chip today <3 )

which is to say, i agree proof of touch grass is a good idea for online spaces

[yadelah]

This kinda required my brain a bit
