*watching hockey* Me: The penalty box is like the cuck chair but for sports My husband: Why are you like this

Me going on a 1st date with a man 🤝 Hockey teams doing empty net “This *never* works, but…maybe this time it will?”

None of these words are in the Bible 😭

At my school site today, I *kept* calling this girl "Emily" whose name was not "Emily" 🤦‍♀️ Entering my Miranda Priestly era, I fear 👹👠

Unsettling to realize that my sudden interest in sports means: If my dad were alive, I might not be a disappointment to him 😬 That’s like half my jokes, right there

IMO probably the least believable thing in Heated Rivalry was New York winning the Stanley Cup 💅

Joining the InfoWars on the side of...the info??

If the cops had just complied, maybe they wouldn't have been attacked (by the bees) 🤷 #JusticeForBeeLady

Adding “you look like you take fashion advice from the Wall Street Journal” to the shade repertoire 💅

If the NHL really wants to be LGBTQ-friendly, on Pride Nights there should be no penalty for: -Holding -Hooking -Too many men

Had the most boring dream of Episcopal inside baseball last night 😭 That’s what I get for reading “Constitution and Canons, together with the Rules of Order, for the Government of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, Otherwise Known as The Episcopal Church” before bed ⚓️

The anti-circumcision group in the Pride parade every year:

The rich will have paid their fair share when what they have left over after taxes is the median income 🙂

Repping anti-ableist, anti-classist, anti-racist, anti-nationalist, queer-celebrating Christianity at No Kings Riverside today 💖

Me, watching hockey and an ad for baseball comes on: “Lol nope. I like one (1) sport, and that is only b/c hockey is hot and I am gay” Me, on IG when the algorithm serves up shirtless baseball players dancing and lip synching (the Banana Ball League): “Ok I’m listening”

HR for my school district is trying to argue that substitute teachers are exempt employees B/c they don’t want to give us meal breaks or pay for mandatory training 😒

“[Trans people]…have been here the whole damn time. I believe in my heart that we’ve been here since Cain and Abel, you know? To me, Cain was one of the gurls, and that bitch Abel did something to bother her—like borrowed her shoes without asking—and Miss Thing killed her.” -Miss Major

Omg I just found my great, great, great, great, great grandfather 😁 He fought against the US in the War of 1812 🇨🇦 🫡

*watching Seattle vs. Vancouver hockey game* Me: Penalty time against the Seattle player is almost over. Looks like it’s time to Release the kraken 😎 My husband: 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Me, getting ready to loose a string of nonsense syllables if somebody challenges me to name my favorite hockey player:

Intellectually I *know* that our society is structured to protect the government and corporations at the expense of the ppl

So the school district where I work lost my paycheck and is dragging its feet about issuing a new one And today I learned that my district’s once-a-month pay schedule and the timing of payday (11-14 days after the end of the pay period) are probably *both* violations of California Labor Code 🫠

Was the dialect coach for Heated Rivalry so busy with Connor Storrie that they didn’t have time to help the actors playing characters from Brooklyn (Kip) and Detroit (Rose) not sound really, *really* Canadian 🥲

My middle-class parents both worked full-time My grandmother worked full-time, and my grandfather worked a full-time office job on top of farming 🤷

It’s interesting / it really sucks to study homophobia throughout the centuries and be reminded that it’s mostly motivated by transphobia 😪 Like, a lot of opposition to gay sex/relationships is and has always been: “But this is men doing what women are supposed to do 🤨”

My guardian gay demon ready to watch me make more ✨ choices ✨

Both this question and the comments were designed in a laboratory to annoy me specifically 😠

I wish I didn’t know about this 🥲

Our kids are playing Mario Tennis Fever rn TENNIS on VALENTINE’S DAY?! TENNIS, where love means nothing?!!😭

I just learned I might qualify for Canadian citizenship b/c an ancestor was born in Canada 🙌🏻🇨🇦 Def going to pursue it, in case things go south here, I can go north ❤️🤍❤️

12-year-old me: “Figure skating is so gay” (pejorative) 40-year-old me: “Figure skating is so gay” (complimentary)

I think I forgot everything I had learned about football when I was pretending to be straight 😵‍💫

Mariah Carey singing at the Olympics opening ceremony 🤦🏼‍♀️ If only there were a globally famous Italian singer

My first Olympics crush is Korey Dropkin from the U.S. mixed doubles curling team 😍

I don’t believe in an eternal hell (progressive theology taught me this) but I believe humans can make little hells for each other and ourselves (going to watch improv taught me this)

I bet he thinks the Cerberus is a myth 🙄

Because of the Heated Rivalry soundtrack, I’m listening to Feist again for the 1st time in 10-15 years I never figured out if the “sea lion woman” in the song is top-half sea lion or bottom-half sea lion 🤔

“Heated Rivalry” does such important representation Of gay, sure But I mean of people who know we’re hot enough that we can get away with being *really* annoying

Am I (X40) The Asshole for telling my husband (M41) I think of our marriage as an “age-gap romance”?

I was “teaching” my husband about hockey b/c he’s the only person who knows less about sports than I do lol And I knew the names for some of the positions from Heated Rivalry, but I didn’t know what the defensive positions were called, so I gave them the dumbest name I could think of: “defensemen.”

This was my “Heated Rivalry”

Omg I bent down at work this morning and ripped a big hole in the crotch of my pants 🙈 Thank God I had first period prep I stapled my pants together and then went to Target and bought slacks

I’m reading one of the other books in the Heated Rivalry series, and it’s an MM age-gap romance And the “daddy” character is exactly my age I didn’t fucking need this rn 🥲

In addition to being the Feast of the Epiphany and Insurrectionaversary It’s also the birthday of: -One of my closest friends -Hot gay country musician Orville Peck -A woman who almost ran me over with her car while on Ambien

I think it would be ghoulish to say this kind of thing, even if the article itself did not pretty straightforwardly undermine its own premise (and his) If your project is to minimize others’ suffering, don’t miss 🤷🏼‍♀️ Also, maybe just pick a different project

Went to the replies to say that this (and every) attempt to define who/what is (and isn’t) human using functionality criteria is deeply ableist And, happily, others were already saying as much ♿️💙

So I’m subbing for math today (I love math 💖), and they’re studying for a final And the aide just explained something wrong (very wrong), so I’m gonna have to correct her in front of everyone 🙃

The Episcopal Church needs to wrestle more honestly with this w/r/t to “purple churches” (mix of Republican & Democrat). ⚓️ Queer people are told to put up with casual (& not so casual) homophobia/transphobia from our fellow parishioners b/c “they’ll come around.” But probably they won’t 🤷🏼‍♀️
