This is an almost shockingly wise essay. I'm glad I've finally read it.

Here to crack some nuts

Note to self: go to the dispensary tomorrow. Fa la la la la

Belated: Anthony Cirelli goal!

RADDYCULOUS: That assist is #GoBolts defenseman Darren Raddysh’s third point of the night. He now has 100 for his NHL career, all with Tampa Bay. Raddysh (21-79—100) is the ninth D-man in TBL history to reach the century mark.

Can confirm: Pulled 60 Minutes “Inside CECOT” segment on the El Salvador mega prison housing hundreds of Venezuelan deportees sent by the U.S. is on Global TV’s free app

The door didn’t stay closed for long.

It's December 21st-- remember to make your breakfast, folks! 🍳 #Dimension20

I see people hoping HBO or a US company takes over Heated Rivalry next season so it has a bigger budget & is Emmy-eligible, so I’d like to emphasize Jacob Tierney’s answer re: what would have happened if it had been made by a US company, based on what was said to him when he was pitching it.

I go back and forth on what I think this platform is more than a little. But no one has tried to defend Sean Avery so I know I’m in the right place based on that alone.

Oh my god. McDonagh pulled the Kucherov move on his goal

Booktok fucking BURIED him. They made sure everyone was aware he is a piece of shit and doesn't deserve attention for "writing" a hockey romance. They hit the comments and told all their friends. That book went nowhere in that space and most people don't know it exists.

The benefit of being a long time hockey fan who loves reading romance books is getting to tell everyone what utter trash Sean Avery is and has always been.

Ryan McDonagh, scoring dynamo!!

It's your birthday, Duane.

Caught myself in the screens of two self check out cameras doing the “Slavic stare” as my natural expression. Not the TikTok trend. The good ol’ haunted Eastern European look. so I can’t really hide my heritage lol

I set a goal of reading 50 books this year. I’ve hit 59, will definitely get to 60 or 61 before 2025 is done. Considering everything that’s happened personally this year I’m pretty happy with that. Would love to surpass that in 2026.

Do you ever watch movies even as recently as the early 2000s and earlier and think about how so many movie stars on the past would not have been cast if they were trying to make the same films today? I think about that a lot.

Hello, I have started making a playlist of songs that make me think about my Dnd character.

FLAT FUCK IS COMING TO TOWN!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS GATOR LOVERS!!

Current mood after watching the new episode of #HeatedRivalry

Do I stay up to watch the new episode of Heated Rivalry when it drops at midnight or do I go to bed early to get up and watch it before I start work in the morning?

Corey Perry, retire bitch.

Lightning, it’s Christmas. Please score some more goals.

It’s only December and I’m sick of seeing the same commercials on the Lightning tv streaming channel.

Oh, so the design department at Fanatics designed the Lightning stadium series. Makes sense. Ever since they took over so much sports merchandise a lot has been boring. The team gear stuff is just so blah and lackluster.

Need to cook. Don’t want to cook. This is the time of year for making over the top meals on exactly two days. The rest of the time you subsist on charcuterie and cheeses.

Ryan McDonagh has been activated off injured reserve by #GoBolts and added to the #TBLightning active roster ahead of tonight's game against Los Angeles.

The article that initially came out was fake but Hudson Williams has now in real life said that Oscar Piastri “has some bottom eyes. He’s got some bottom little yearning eyes”. What a time to be an F1 and Heated Rivalry fan hahahahaha

There have been a few moments this holiday season where I’ve been overcome with emotion after realizing how much I am loved by my friends here. My brain’s default is thinking I am the worst. A constant let down and disappointment. Having concrete proof that some people do NOT think that is… whew.

annual holiday reminder, female cardinals are brown so any time you see two red cardinals snuggling on a branch, they are boyfriends

Coming soon -- Dimension 20: Gladlands! ☀️😃 Join Brennan Lee Mulligan and the Dusty Do-gooders (Ally Beardsley, Kimia Behpoornia, Vic Michaelis, Oscar Montoya, Zac Oyama, Jacob Wysocki) for a feel-good apocalypse adventure! Dimension 20: Gladlands premieres Jan. 7th, 2026!

Many people know about his other accomplishments, but it is important to point out another of the enduring ones. How Rob Reiner transformed early ed in California edsource.org?page_id=747162

Save a Zamboni, ride a hockey player 🌚

Things that will never make sense to me: cutting jobs, then complaining consumers aren't spending. If you fire everyone, who do you think is going to be able to afford anything? You're burning down the house you're standing in and crying because it's too hot

When Josh Groban hits that one big note at the end of O Holy Night the hair on my neck stands up every single time. Atheist and all 🤣

Mick Foley has always been one of The Dudes

Did they not get enough with hurting Hagel in the playoffs earlier this year? I really cannot stand those cats.

A Florida panthers play gets away with purposefully forearming an opponent in the head. I’d be shocked but I expected it. The league has enabled it for YEARS.

My reaction to seeing Jake Guentzel dropping the gloves and throwing punches

Goal tender interference review? Idk. Throw a dart at the board.

Oooooh fantastic patience for Moser on that goal

First NHL goal for Max Crozier gets the Bolts on the board. Congrats, kid!

I dream of a day Brad Marchand won’t be on a team in the same division as the Lightning

We say goodbye to actor, filmmaker and activist Rob Reiner. A dedicated storyteller with sincerity that imbued his prolific work and the causes he believed in, Reiner’s heartfelt portrayal of the human condition reminds us of the power of film and its abilities to stay with us.

Nice shutout Bobrovsky’s having.

Tonight marks #GoBolts forward Nick Paul’s 500th career NHL game. Paul has scored 100-106—206 in 499 career games. The former 4th-round pick in 2013 ranks among his draft class leaders for G (23rd), P (31st), A (32nd) and GP (34th).

The Lightning play the Panthers again tonight. Preparing myself for insane levels of violence as is customary.
