I saw a post about Shane and Ilya being sad that they can't thank each other in their acceptance speeches like other can with their spouses and it got me thinking:
Ilya wins his first awards and hes got nobody he really wants to thank after his team and coach cause he he hates his family but he knows his speech is too short so on impulse he goes "And I want to thank Shane Hollander for being slightly worse than me this season". Everyone knows it was going to one of those two, so everyone thinks hes an asshole to say that but whats new so it works for him. But from then on it then becomes a bit for both of them to thank each other in their speeches in a snide way as a reason they won.
Shane winning the Art Ross Trophy (Awarded to the player who leads the league in total points at the end of the regular season). and going "special thanks to Rozanov for missing at least 5 shots this season, he was a huge help"
Ilya winning the Conn Smythe Trophy (Awarded to the most valuable player for his team in the playoffs.) "Just want to give a quick shout out to Hollander for getting knocked out in the second round this season. Must hate to see me up here."
They find a way to mention the other in their speeches every time all the time.
alright I've got to do some quick math to explain attitudes towards AI to my boss.
we're looking to create an AI policy, and when we were talking about this, my boss (older millennial) was genuinely shocked to hear that younger people do not (seem) to view AI positively (a la the recent commencement speakers being booed)
please rb for larger sample size!
Question 1/3
What is your age, and do you feel AI is a net positive or net negative in our lives today?
thetonyawards: Sunday is almost here! Check out our impressive line-up of stage and screen stars slated to appear during the 79th Annual Tony Awards.
Rachel Zegler, who will return to Broadway next Spring, will deliver a special tribute to A Chorus Line, which recently celebrated its 50th anniversary.
Tony Award winner Leslie Odom, Jr. will honor those we’ve lost this year with a moving performance of “Without You” from Rent, in honor of the show’s 30th anniversary.
For the FULL list of appearances and performances, visit https://www.tonyawards.com/
So I'm maybe just a liiiiiiittle obsessive, and I wanted to work out the timeline of the show, and figured I'd share it with you all. I can't quite figure out how to format this for tumblr, so I'm going to just c&p images of the tables and then dump all of it in unformatted text I guess under a read more? Please let me know if you can think of a better way for me to do this (without retyping it all!) and please let me know if you see any errors to be corrected.
ETA: I'm sorry, I added some info to ep 6 after rewatching and somehow deleted the table for ep 5? But it's back now!
Bonus: season calendar pics that are not accurate (since the
Boston/Montreal games don't line up)

What did our critic think of AN EVENING WITH DARREN CRISS at Emerson Colonial Theatre?
Review: AN EVENING WITH DARREN CRISS at Emerson Colonial Theatre
Just days after departing his Tony-winning role in “Maybe Happy Ending” on Broadway, Darren Criss was onstage at Boston’s Emerson Colonial Theatre for the first in a series of concerts that will take him from southern California to New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, and Tennessee between now and the end of September.
Opening with “It’s Not Unusual,” Criss put his own vocals, and a few of his own gyrations, into what has been Tom Jones’s signature song since it was first released 61 years ago. After reminding his Boston audience, “I was on Broadway just seconds ago,” Criss shifted gears, taking to the piano to perform the plaintive “Somewhere Only We Know” by Keane, which he sang in season two of “Glee,” and which in Boston floated to the highest rafters thanks to the Colonial’s exquisite acoustics.
Also for the many “Gleeks” – fans of the Fox-TV series – in the house, Criss, who played Blaine Anderson, lead singer of the Dalton Academy Warblers on the series, offered up a pitch-perfect rendition of Young Giants’ “Cough Syrup,” a season-three number Blaine sang to his emotionally vulnerable friend Kurt (Chris Colfer).
The blending of classic and contemporary pop with tunes from both the American and Broadway songbooks proved to be the order of the day for the popular performer, and his tight backing band – Devon Yesberger on keyboards, Chris Morrissey on bass, Tomek Miernowski on guitar, and pianist Thomas Pandolfi – was with him on every twist and turn.
And since the Emerson Colonial is a legendary Broadway tryout house, it was only appropriate that Criss’s 100-minute set featured respectful asides about the theatre’s rich history as well as showtunes from a warm-toned “Almost Like Being in Love,” from Lerner and Loewe’s “Brigadoon, to a wonderfully well delivered “Where or When” from the 1937 Rodgers and Hart musical “Babes in Arms,” which became a standard for Frank Sinatra, who recorded it three times, in 1945, 1958, and 1966.
Criss also made a lot of Olivia Newton-John fans happy with his spot-on cover of “Hopelessly Devoted to You,” written by John Farrar for the 1978 film version of “Grease,” which Newton-John made a pop hit that same year and which was included in the show’s 2007 Broadway revival. Newton-John’s homeland was again in the air when Criss matched his richly expressive voice to what he called both a “naughty song” and “an ode to modern love,” Pink’s “Walk of Shame” from her 2012 album “The Truth About Love,” released exclusively Down Under.
The Tony- and Emmy-winning actor and singer – famed not only for “Glee” but also for FX’s “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story” and “Hollywood,” as well as Broadway shows including the 2011 revival of “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,” 2014’s “Hedwig and the Angry Inch,” and the 2022 revival of “American Buffalo” – didn’t forget his most recent Broadway triumph either.
Indeed, Criss served up two songs from the still-running 2025 Tony winner for Best New Musical, “Maybe Happy Ending,” the South Korean show about two humanlike helper-bots with music by Will Aronson and lyrics by Hue Park which he co-produced and starred in on Broadway. After a lovely take on “How to Be Not Alone,” sung in the musical by Helen J. Shen, Criss delivered a moving “Where You Belong,” which he performed in the show.
The San Francisco native’s good humor was sprinkled throughout “An Evening with Darren Criss,” with his expletives-undeleted patter delighting his attentive audience. He also elicited laughter and stirred up good memories when he reprised his role as Harry Potter in the parody “A Very Potter Musical,” for which he co-wrote the music and lyrics with his University of Michigan classmate A.J. Holmes. Produced by Starkid Productions, a company founded by Criss and his college classmates, the musical was first performed at UM in 2009. Its YouTube release marked a career breakthrough for the college alum.
Criss – who has brought his “A Very Darren Crissmas” tour to Boston’s Wilbur Theatre and the Emerson Colonial in the past few years – closed out his latest visit with a memorable performance of Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dreams,” the first song he ever did on “Glee” and, based on the loud applause it received, an audience favorite.
Art for the amazing @zenaidamacrouras1's Hollanov AU fic Untouchable Face. Thank you for being such a good friend and supporter, Z.
He stands at the water’s edge and scans the beach, which has a few people lying on the chairs provided by the hotel, a family under an umbrella with some kids digging in the sand, and, unmistakably, Ilya Rozanov wearing a black swimsuit and a gold Rolex, walking toward him.
So, Shane successfully negotiated Ilya out of any props for this photoshoot, and he stands by that, but now wardrobe has taken things to the other extreme: Ilya is currently sauntering from the makeup tent to a section of beach framed by aesthetic rocks on one side and a wall of light reflector umbrellas on the other, and he’s wearing only a watch.
Okay, he also has on very small, black, silky briefs.

Photoshop elements (where photoshop is used as the verb), overlays, overlines, textures... I had a lot of fun with these!

A redraw of a redraw of a redraw, with an edit and an overhaul, plus an added "C" for the other two captains and not just Ilya. Please don't look too closely at their feet, I really messed up the skates in this version (then tried to steal those parts from the original, and then messed them up even more so went back to the less messy mess). There was almost a plan to "paint" the inside of each locker in the colour of the applicable pride flag, but it would have been way too busy.

I messed up a few things with this one, mostly because it was going to have a big title text over the top of it. Shane and Scott's hands on Ilya's back look horrible (again, they weren't actually meant to be visible), and while I'm tempted to go in and change it, I'm not going to because hey, guess what? People make mistakes too. The little rainbow bit was a colour swatch from another part of the image, and I messed up the layers when I was overlaying it. If you know how hard it is to differentiate between 700+ colour layers, you'll understand my plight right now.
(Also, the first time I did this, I spelled both "Rozanov" and "Hollander" wrong and had to argue with my own brain even after I fixed it because I'd stared at it for so long they'd ceased to be words)
