every day we get closer to Hudson finding and watching KinnPorsche and then he'll be unstoppable

INTRUSIVE! Not intrinsic. God.

Ever since HR I've had these intrinsic thoughts about what if I went back to hockey. Not fannish, no. Just casually, you know. Just to see what's up. That is because I'm an idiot.

[update] Scheduled: #AO3 will be down for about 15 hours starting at 08:00 UTC on January 21 while we make some improvements to searching bookmarks and series.

"Shane and Ilya at the cottage, a place in the story that has become symbolic for the shelter the obsession provides." Alexander Chee is one of my favorite writers on social media, precisely for things like this. This essay is a banger and everybody should read it

Here I am, a factory worker enjoying his lunch in the North End of Boston on January 15, 1919. I’ve survived the influenza pandemic, I’m feeling good about life, and I’ve never been more confident I will not be swallowed up by a flood of liquid sugarcane extract

Everybody thinks 'https://' stands for 'hypertext transfer protocol secure' but it actually stands for 'head to this place, sucka' followed by a colon and two laser sounds

I once watched a streamer listen to the Wii shop music on loop for 20 hours. That's a 2:08 min runtime and I watched the majority of the stream. You're giving me a whole album and you think it's a challenge? The answer is any album in my possession and most albums not in my possession. No problem.

I just spilled most of a bottle of cough syrup all over my feet, these socks will never cough again in their lives!

I will never not repost this (Sound on for maximum effect)

One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

Stayed up past my bed time but one book in the Game Changers series down, 5 more to go. At this speed, maybe I'll be done in time for the next book to come out. 😂 Every time Ilya showed up I did a "That's my booooyyyyyy!"

I wrote about Heated Rivalry and the Sens signing James Reimer! medium.com/@millvsSPQR/...

The Common Loon (AKA Stupid Canadian wolf bird) is a large bird, almost 1 m in length and weighing as much as 5.5 kg. It is well known for its haunting call and its extraordinary ability to swim underwater.

Really really feeling this, from the newsletter over at GoFugYourself about #heatedrivarly

There can't be new episodes of The Pitt because I haven't finished processing my Heated Rivalry feelings yet and I can only deal with one set of feelings at a time. I'm sorry but this needs to be rescheduled.

God that was a great year for Fandom.

Starting the new year with some covid, hbu

one challenging thing for me in talking and reading about Heated Rivalry is that there are so so many truths that have to sit alongside each other, and talking about one of those truths inevitably makes it seems like you (well, I!) don't care about others

yuna (saying goodbye after learning ilya’s fucking her son and wanting to make him feel at home): and ilya, i just want to say, i’ve talked a lot of shit about you over the years, and … you should know i’m not sorry. about any of it shane: MOM, GOD ilya (through tears): thank you. that means a lot

An essay by Laura Sackton inspired by Heated Rivalry, reflecting on the complexities of “coming out” as a political/discursive act in a heterosexist world… vs inter-community signaling, recognition, language, intimacy, etc for showing each other who’s family poetryschool.beehiiv.com/p/volume-5-n...

Got a friend into #HeatedRivalry, she just started the first episode and she's asking how the draft system works. Girl, why would you care about the hockey? But I will gladly explain to you the faily system of North American sports where the worst teams get rewarded. You brought this onto yourself.

I have been to the Cottage and somehow I'm expected to be a functioning member of society now? No???? #HeatedRivalry

My Marked For Later is filling up with so many #HeatedRivalry fics and I only need to finish 5.5 books until I can read them. I don't see any flaws with this plan!

I'm being so normal. You have no idea how normal I am being.

It’s Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Day…. It is Chri hi hi hi hi stmas Day!

Geeeeettttt…. DRESSED, you merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay! For it is Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Day!

*ahem*

in retrospect I should have taken today off from work so I could just lie down and cackle about this forever

#MusicAdvent Day 24 could only be X-Ray Spex. At some point you've heard the famous song so much that you develop favourites among their other songs, just because you've not been over-exposed to them so much. But in the end the famous one is famous for the sensible reason of being very, very good.

Gran Turismo 7 is starting with a super emotional intro video about the history of cars and car racing I can't figure out how to skip it. I'm happy for you car nerds, but I'm gonna play this like it's Mario Kart!

an utterly perfection summation of what it feels like to watch #HeatedRivalry

Uh, for the people who need this, which is all my mutuals, pretty much, GQ has removed the paywall for this article and its extremely unhinged photoshoot. Happy holidays! www.gq.com/story/heated...

#MusicAdvent Day 23 is for one of the greatest who has ever done it, so obviously I'm gonna go with a live version. Whitney Houston - I Wanna Dance With Somebody

#MusicAdvent Day 22, I was close to doing a language is fake thing and posting Anna von Hausswolff for V, but I couldn't decide on a track. 😅 So here's Leon Vynehall feat. TYSON with Scab. One smooth operator! And with that I'm up to date again.

#MusicAdvent Day 21, U is for Underworld! So many good tracks to choose from, but in the end it has got to be Born Slippy, really. Absolute legends. And all the visual trigger warnings for that video lol.

#MusicAdvent Day 20, haven't really posted any DnB yet, I think. So for T it's Tantrum Desire - Reach VIP. That's me, posting ten year old DnB tracks on the timeline as if there weren't any new DnB tracks to post. But I like this one!
