incredibly minor but still dumb side effect of late stage capitalism: ever notice how so many concert venues and stadiums just have the lamest names imaginable. Like ooooh Lady Gaga is playing at the..... Mortgage Stadium? Oh boy the finals are at the.... Chase Bank arena. Can't wait to catch a game at the Garunteed Rate field.

if I have to see one more tweet comparing a real life hockey player with their own personality and life story to a heated rivalry character…. 💣

[starrynet]

the thing I’m talking about. it’s not about a player of color for once, so at least there’s that

[hello-andi]

me: our boys are working so hard, games so grueling, they deserve three days off before the next one \(^_^)/

consistently reminded of the time i went to a museum and watched a grown man argue w one of those ais about what a fountain was called and both googled it and looked at the plaque to answer this and went back and he was still arguing w it. 10 mins of his life, wasted to talk to a fake idiot on his phone.

i love wsh as a player and i'm a wsh defender and i know the comparisons are coming from a place of love and whimsy but from the bottom of my heart... kk harvey is a true generational talent and i think comparing her to wsh (although i do believe he will eventually develop into an elite player) is a bit insulting. i know she is blonde and also has a codependent bestie teammate but please. she is not will smith hockey's twin. if anything he's like a little cousin who follows her around and tries to copy everything she does. kk harvey is one of the best defensemen in the world and has never even played a season of professional hockey. like please let that sink in, we don't even know what she's fully capable of yet and she's already considered one of the best players in the history of the sport. she was named tournament mvp at the OLYMPICS. THE OLYMPICS!!! will smith hockey should hope to one day reach the level of international recognition that kk harvey has already achieved before her professional career has even begun. anyway peace and love on planet earth i apologize for taking everyone's jokes too seriously i just want kk to get her flowers <333

[violetcalliope]

her skill quite frankly does NOT matter. she is her own hockey player and does not need to be constantly compared to and called the woman version of any male hockey player. tieed of seeing the idea that you need to earn respect when this base level should be granted to everyone on this planet.

This is literally what people are talking about when they say AI will be used to mainstream widely held bigotry. LLMs are trained on frequency and probability -> straight relationships are more well represented in the dataset -> straight pronouns and terms become the "correct" normal.

This is a form of backdoor bigotry from both normative facts (there are more straight than gay relationships) and well represented bigoted beliefs (men are superior to women).

Combine this with the mass of people inclined to believe (and being encouraged to believe) that if AI says and does something it must be correct

[shrockeyy]

idk. personally I just think it's wild that a woman most famous for being the first woman to play in an NHL game has chosen to support the career of a proud advocate against trans women in women's sports. like, the whole "biological advantage" nonsense argument is entirely dependent on the idea that cisgender men are inherently better at sports than cisgender women. is that not the very idea you set out to disprove, manon? didn't you successfully disprove it over and over, playing in boys leagues and being just as good, if not better than them? what the fuck are we doing here if not showing that your assigned sex at birth doesn't determine your ability to play hockey? what the fuck ever. this sucks.

do me and you a favor and go try that thing youve been too scared to try

I was at a 12-hour orgy yesterday and halfway through someone decided they wanted to put a hockey game up on the projector. you're the only reason I know anything about hockey. I don't even know who was playing but they were blue and red and there was a guy named Gotstobehere. half the group immediately stopped orgy-ing in favor of hockey. this took up about? Three hours of time? tits were flashed when a team scored a goal. People stopped fucking when fights broke out cause it was more interesting.

I'm not sure why I'm telling you. I feel like SOMEONE in the hockey community needs to know about the game that derailed an orgy.

there are people living all kinds of lives out there

Happy Stanley Cup Finals game 2 to the orgy post and what I believe is Shayne Gostisbehere

"We need more weird queers!" You can't handle actual queerness. The only queerness you can handle is heteronormative queerness of top and bottom same sex couples, strict binary trans people and Non-binary folks as a third gender. Don't even get me started how you can't handle anything above monogender, monosexual or monogamous. You can't handle arospec and acespec and any mixture of the two, especially aroallos. You can't handle intersex people just existing to be honest. Anything that challenges your shallow worldview of how things work is 'made up' or 'trying to win the oppression Olympics'.

You can't handle real queer people in the real queer world. If you said any of your shitty takes in real queer spaces nobody would trust you.

To you, being queer is just cishet+

[violetcalliope]

dawgs cant even handle binary trans folk in my experience
