He’s leaky and old, like pick a struggle (part 1)

Okay but imagine being the team of Eridian scientists tasked with keeping Erid's Only Human alive for as long as possible while the whole planet's environment is literally trying to kill him. And then Rocky shows up and is like:

“Grace says he would like half of dome to be water.”

“Oh, is necessary for humans to have large amounts of water question?”

Small Eridian equivalent of a sigh. “No. Not needed for life. In fact Grace will die if he falls in water and does not get out.”

“Tell him we give him water in containers that won't kill him. Lots lots lots of water on Erid for Grace to drink.”

“No. Grace say he want water on ground. Also want it with excess sodium chloride compound so it will be unhealthy for drink.”

“WHY QUESTION???”

[cheeseanonioncrisps]

To celebrate Erid getting their sun back on track, Grace asks for some alcohol. There's a small amount left from the Hail Mary and Rocky offers to take it to the science Eridians to see if they can synthesise more.

“Grace want this liquid for celebration.”

“Of course.” They scan it. “You have wrong liquid. This contain compounds which are poisonous for humans.”

“Yes yes yes. Grace say humans like feeling of being slightly poisoned.”

“WHY QUESTION?????”

[cheeseanonioncrisps]

Grace is like one of those extremely finicky tropical fish who instantly die if not kept in extremely specific conditions.

Only here the fish can talk and keeps asking you to make it vodka.

seeing 1500 comments on the insta post announcing Britta Curl to Detroit and it's so much "oh I guess I won't be going to games" "oh I guess I'm cancelling my season ticket deposit" oh okay and then donating that money to a nonprofit/mutual aid fund that supports trans people, right? and advocating for the league to create a gender inclusion policy, right?

the way pwhl fans have made Britta Curl the scapegoat for the league will never not piss me off, not because I agree with her beliefs, but because by scapegoating one player and directing all your attention to loudly hating her you don't actually do anything real.

Also, aside from the fact that Britta Curl is not the only player with her beliefs in the league, I actually don't think yelling at the league to fire her is productive! I actually don't think a business should be allowed to discriminate against employees based on their political beliefs! I think that's a dangerous precedent to set, personally!

Like you don't have to spend your money in support of a franchise with players who are loud about politics you don't agree with. But saying they don't deserve to pay their bills and feed themselves is not exactly the most progressive take either.

I am once again coming #onhere to remind people that if you don't love trans people more than you hate transphobes your outrage is performative at best and I'm tired of seeing it constantly in pwhl fan spaces

[newyorksirens]

Adding some tags that I think are important, from @midwesticebird @minahxrker @monopeptide and @sadpearonmars :

I just want to also add a masterlist of resources for things you, pwhl blogger, can concretely do to combat transphobia in the PWHL!

Firstly, use this template/guide to email the league and the pwhpa to demand they develop, release, and implement the gender inclusion policy they still owe us.

Additionally, if you have the financial means, pledge to donate in Curl's name. I personally did $5 per point and $1 per PIM this past season, but you can choose whatever donation makes sense for you! Also, here are some places you can donate that advocate for LGBTQ people in hockey/detroit/both:

You Can Play

The Ruth Ellis Center (see @whitecherrylavender's reblog for more details)

The Detroit Chapter of Stonewall Sports (see @royaletigertowelpapertowelpp's reblog for more)

From u/pythagoreanpentagram on reddit: Stand With Trans and Transgender Michigan

You can also follow along with a Detroit fan-led effort to fundraise for trans nonprofits at puckcurl.com

If anyone else has suggestions for things PWHL fans can do, please comemnt/reblog with them and I'll add to this!

[midwesticebird]

Also, since it's the closet to me, CPH has pride merch now. Be gay and support a league committed to the idea that hockey is for everyone.

she should be legally allowed to kill I think.

[literary-sparks]

“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

[phantomrose96]

You know I gotta learn shitpost brevity. Most of my successful posts are like 3 paragraph essays, minimum. Fucking dissertations. Terrible note-to-word ratio. Inefficient. In this economy? In this economy? Unsustainable. Everyone else posting "blowing my balls up at the bomb factory" and getting 50,000 notes. Amazing ROI. They're the future and I'm on dial-up. The market's gonna out-compete me.

i'm celebrating Indigenous hockey players making history for #NIHM2026 i feel so lucky to follow a sport that is finally recognizing the incredible impact and legacy of these athletes initatives and orgs: https://www.hockeyindigenous.com https://smudgetheblades.com https://www.aboriginalsportcircle.ca/ https://www.theiropportunity.com/indigenoushockeyequipmentdrive

The midjourney stuff just reminds of when we were trying to find a new platform to host the ao3 donation form, and companies kept trying to tell me about all their "ai" features that would track donor engagement, and figure out the optimal pattern to email individual donors asking for follow up donations, and all the ways they suggest we manipulate people into staying on our websites. It was a great way to filter out who either wasn't listening to us when we described our ethics and donor base, or just didn't believe us.

Now granted ao3 is a unique case based on a) the amount of page views we get in any given time period and b) the fact that most donors absolutely do Not want to be identified as such anywhere, (the default "list of recent donors" module got nuked Immediately) but it surprised me some that the concept of "donors who value their privacy and would be furious at even the whiff of AI" is unique. Some of us really are just existing in different worlds.

The last part was kind of insane, honestly. When we started changing platforms for the donor database, I kept telling them that yes I was aware we already had an account for the volunteer database, and no that could not be connected to the donor database. And they said yes fine sure and then connected them anyway. And I called them back and said, excuse me, I'm confused, I can see both databases. And they said, well, yeah, but it's only you, someone has to be able to see both databases to give other users access. The other users can't see both. And I said, no, we have been asking for a completely separate database. I should not be able to see both. And they said, you are one organization, one organization can't have two databases. And I said, last year someone used our volunteer email list to commit approximately one thousand felonies. Please feel free to imagine how much worse it could have been had they had a way to use volunteers' email addresses to get their legal names. We do not want this to be something anyone can do no matter how much we trust them. Let me describe those felonies to you in more detail. And they emailed me two hours later and said, you can have two separate databases.

This post feels like watching an iceberg go by in clear water. The amount of stuff going on beneath the surface of AO3 just astonishes.

The most basic, intractable fact about mental illnesses is that you simply cannot willpower your way out of them. The only exceptions to this rule are the ones I have, which continue to disable me due to lack of determination and other grave personal flaws

feels uniquely devious to deduct that a real life person is the same person as the Tumblr that's been in your notifications. the benefit to being in an extremely small community i suppose
