I am whatever the opposite of a speed runner is. I am a game meanderer. I have to look at literally everything. I am overly cautious in every way. I forget to pause and wander away from the game. I take a minimum 7 hours to get through any given level. If you give me a timer I will cry.

TIKTOKER: I swear to God, no one tickles my testicles more than the people of my own fucking country. Okay, so like WHAT HAPPENED was this year, this summer, I was in Korea. And I linked up with a homie that I haven't met in a long time, just catching up. "Oh my God, how are you? You GRADUATED? That's insane, where do you work!?" Whatever. Okay.

So there was a conversation about like, food and preferences. So I just asked him! I just asked him: (in Korean, pronoucing "asparagus" as a Korean loan word) "Hey, when you eat steak, do you put asparagus?"

(in English) And this BITCH. He looks at me DEAD STRAIGHT IN THE FUCKING EYES. Has the AUDACITY to just.... degrade, I guess! Ask me: (in Korean) "HAH! Hey, aren't you from America? Why are you calling it (emphasizing the Korean pronunciation of asparagus) ASPARAGUS?"

(in English, in an exaggerated stereotypical American accent) OH, I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY! Am I supposed to say ASS-PARA-GUSS? ASS-PARA-GUSS? DO I GO (says his question again in Korean, but breaks up the flow of the speech by pronouncing all the loan words with American pronunciation).

IT FUCKS THE FLOW!!! WHY ARE YOU BITCHING!? I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY! YOU MONOLINGUAL FUCK!!!!

the fun thing about having a mental health crashout in your thirties is that sure yeah you're crashing out, but at the same time there's a part of you standing across the room smoking ben affleck style, going yeah yeah you're crashing out. you crashed out before you will crash out again can we wrap this up yet. and the most annoying part about it is that they're right, and that that does Not stop you from crashing out even a little. love and light on planet earth.

okay this post. the 'liking sports is just a competency kink' one. i was gonna say things in the tags and then i realized i was going to drift quite far away from the original post so. rambling here.

it's about watching a real life chosen one narrative but you don't know if the prophecy will be fulfilled. it's about watching a ragtag group of misfits come together in real time to become something greater than the sum of their parts. it's about seeing sisyphus roll a boulder up a hill over and over and over again and knowing that no matter how hopeless it seems, there genuinely is a chance that they will succeed this time. it's about watching the absolutely most cartoon-ish rube goldberg displays of physics beat the most OP hero in the world. it's about knowing that because of luck and skill and people having off days and just sheer determination, david WILL beat goliath some of the time. it's about seeing the hero who has gone through the long dark night of the soul come back stronger and better for it because they've learned an emotional lesson.

don't get me wrong, i ABSOLUTELY agree that a core appeal is just 'person doing thing very very well' that's SO real and so important! but the other core is that then all of us watching it collectively construct meaning out of it in real time.

nothing has stuck in my head more from the winter olympics ceremony than the bbc commentary team absolutely butchering the pronunciation of draisaitl. seriously how do you get it THAT wrong

[sapphicslapshot]

you are a goalie and you get to play in one of the biggest hockey games in the world. you expect to block a couple of pucks, a standard hockey game. you expect for your lovely team to move the puck away from your side of the ice. you are then put into the torment nexus for 60 minutes and have to block almost 40 shots. on international television. you are saskia maurer.
