I’m sure y’all have heard by now, but as @wademinter.com would say : MY Carolina Hurricanes are headed to the Stanley Cup Final ♥️🖤♥️🖤 (ok fine, your’s too)

@chelles116.bsky.social this one’s just for you 😆

What the dysentery situation?

Every consumer good will be affected. Truckers aren’t stopping at your local gas station. I-95 in VA yesterday

Me: a local tournament, just for fun, cool. No stress. Tournament organizers: how about the worst schedule possible at the one “local” rink the farthest from your house?

Life update. He has skates on. But he’s completed his goal of being taller than me even without the skates. I am unsettled.

Let’s go Panthers!!!! #KeepPounding

Remains insane to me that in Iraq — in an active war — when encountering a potential hostile vehicle, we're told to wave/yell, use lights, fire warning shots at tires-engine-windshield last resort. But in Minnesota you just shoot into the driver window of a mom with your partner in the field of fire

Logging off the internet because while I appreciate and feel the outrage, I need to stop seeing the video.

Hellebuyck better be On One for the Olympics because Otter is not the goalie people think he is. His positioning sucks

Laughs in 3rd/4th+ generation American. All of the above and more ♥️♥️

Adulted way too much today: dentist, finish Christmas shopping, pickup lunch, oil change, let dogs out, take kid to open his own bank account, got form notarized and mailed at post office, Yawn. 🥱

In this case, just ask yourself what would Fifty do, and do that 😜

Give it a few more year and most of the IcePack players will have been coached by the Canes Alumni

I do appreciate that the alumni game is online and I don’t have to risk going outside for the approximately 47 snowflakes that have fallen and caused 2 days of school closures

Whalers and Yorktown Admirals just announced NCDC teams for next season…. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if Jr Canes do the same. #juniorhockey

Ok… enough already… where is the snow? Not a single snowflake and I’d be leaving now to pick the kid up from school

Is this like the Mark Messier leadership award? Given to a player Mark Messier likes?

I don’t ask for help, but my son needs a very expensive and urgent surgery. Duncan was seen for surgery to remove some Mast Cell Tumors. One of the spots was on his paw. He did not heal properly and now needs a skin graft on his paw. Anything helps! 💜 www.gofundme.com/f/help-dunca...

Is “my mom doesn’t want to take me” a valid reason for a kid to miss practice? Asking for a friend (my kid) 🥱

Why does it feel like it should be Friday? The month between Thanksgiving and Christmas is pretty useless.

Youth hockey problems: a friend from another area keeps posting about their kid’s tournament win where they went undefeated and all you can do is roll your eyes and scroll past because they entered their AA team in the A division and won games by 10+ goals🙃

Dear youth hockey parent screaming at your (volunteer) team manager in the rink lobby…. If you’ve truly been at this for 9 years you should know not to book the non-refundable flights. ☕️

If you have a 22% success record in arresting criminals (some of those are only expired registration ‘crimes’), you should be the one charged with the crime.

Let’s assume half of these children rely on free school meals to have anything to eat. That’s 10,000+ kids going hungry.

resources re: ICE presence in North Carolina, distribute widely if you feel like it. all love to my community, no love to the people who said "but what is fascism really? historically, blah blah, name-calling gets us nowhere" when we were all saying "these people are fascists" linktr.ee/apply_heat

ICE is neither wanted or needed here. Our neighbors do not deserve to be afraid to leave their homes. Take a look at all of the businesses closed or operating at a reduced capacity, these are members of our community that make it what it is.

I am sure there are legitimately some bad people that need to be arrested. Having entire communities on high alert for days/weeks/months because there are literal fucking gestapo style raids happening is not any where close to a solution. Fix your damn justice system first.

Knew this was Black Bear before even getting past the first sentence.

Was just reading a thread on Facebook about traffic being light this morning and outside construction work being delayed until probably next week. Fortunately the comments are all in support and if any officials asks they have the flu. 😷

Who keeps breaking the internet? I bet it’s cloudflare again.

If you have to try to find excuses like this to justify his actions, maybe take a long hard look in the mirror before heading to therapy.

Made it back home from Charlotte, in case anyone stayed up 😉 even driving in ‘snow’ both ways

It is snowing in Charlotte. Seems appropriate, I guess.

Impatiently waiting for it to be 3pm to leave for Charlotte. Because I am insane and we’re driving there and back for the Charlotte Hornets vs Lakers game

He just got done at practice but we can probably make it by the 3rd period…

Parking pass available for tonight’s Canes game $25

What a terrific Rickroll the www.hotgirlsforcuomo.com site is! Click on it! Click it!

Today actually feels…. Hopeful. Lighter. Maybe it’s the sun coming up earlier. Maybe it’s good people that want good for others winning.

Two wins I'd like to see happen in NYC tonight: the canes and Mamdani

My final thought of the family group chat this morning, over here solving problems: “If one of your employees requires government assistance, you should be taxed at 50% higher rate than everyone else”

A 100% tariff, huh?

A friendly reminder to stop numbering RBA’s lines and that what you think is the third line will probably end up playing the most minutes.

Does she know how simple life could be if you simply acted like a normal human? It’s very easy to not draw attention to yourself as a middle aged white woman in an airport. You do not need special attention to take a seat.

At some point, we have to stop trying to make NC12 happen.

Someone here has to be a lawyer… Settle a debate for me: is this enough for probable cause to search their vehicle

The state fair is over, so he doesn’t have that as an excuse.

Jump in, we’re heading straight to hell
