Oh I’m sitting in 6B and drinking heavily to “help me” deal with the overwhelming attraction to both of them which will inevitably lead to me behaving like an absolute psycho and being forcibly removed from the flight.

Let this be my prophesy: Connor Storrie in the Jacquemus show for Paris Fashion Week. The men’s rtw is already so Connor coded and the androgynous, flowy, structures would be so incredible on his body. Let me have this.

[reacting to tweets] 😂 Connor: do I just not know how to read or do none of these make grammatical sense? Hudson: they’re not getting any degrees in English by any means.

I think one of my favorite things about heated rivalry (YES IM STILL HEREEEE) are all the times Ilya says something under his breath. It could take an entire page of dialogue and narration to explain what he’s feeling but it’s done with one word that isn’t even said out loud. These live in my heart:

This is irresponsible because what if we all died? Like I almost died just now opening my feed and seeing THIS MAN. There should be a warning.

If you’re sick and confused about literally everything right now and nothing whatsoever makes any shred of sense just know that you’re paying attention and nothing DOES make sense. You’re not “missing” anything. The people functioning normally are the ones missing (a very big) something.

Baby that’s just the bisexual gaze. Either get off François and let him live in peace or admit that you don’t know any bisexuals. That’s just how we look at most people 😂

Thank goodness that no part of me wants to look like hudcon because they keep talking about not eating carbs and that would have genuinely ruined my life. I’m more than happy just admiring how they look while I continue to enjoy my pasta and bread 😂

Look @framblebee.bsky.social my timeline did something 😂

My friend was watching Industry last night so I watched one episode with him. No idea what episode. Little idea what the show is about (and no interest to learn more). But wow what a deeply unlikable and miserable set of people. What a murky mirror of our own society. Absolutely not for me.

You know what I’m so tired of is broadcasters who feel the need to clarify “this is NOT A SHOW I WOULD NORMALLY WATCH” like okay buddy we get it nobody thinks you’re gay jfc

“Oh hey I finally started watching that show you keep talking about, heated rivalry?” Me, looking up from my 308th rewatch and trying to remember how to be normal: oh cool I hope you enjoy!

I will rip it from inside your mouth with my bare hands actually

Horsemen of my personal apocalypse

Every bisexual in the vicinity:

*crawling on my hands and knees*

What is happening to me, hudconically speaking, cannot be sustained. All I see is heated rivalry. Most of what I think about is hudcon. They’re everywhere and I’m in near-constant hysterics. Something has to change and unfortunately it likely won’t be me.

JUST SO WE’RE ALL CLEAR: posting/reposting content is not political action. In this age of truly astronomical levels of media saturation, “raising awareness” is not a task that needs extra help. It’s all the other stuff. The quiet, uncomfortable, sometimes boring stuff that needs your help.

*slams table* *points angrily at mark johnson* DO YOUR JOB!!!

Yikes

I have no words. The US is an incomprehensible nightmare.

You know what it is? It is the simple comfort and joy of seeing queer love as safe and happy where nobody gets punished by the narrative for being queer. Tension? The people in love don’t know how to express it. Instead of asking “why do people like it?” Maybe start asking why you don’t get that.

I think it was better when we didn’t have just the ONE THING in charge of all our activities. I think in exchange for the convenience of “a phone that does everything” we lost quite a bit. I’m on a mission to get it back and if you’re friends with me you WILL hear about it 😂

It is hilarious to see so many people experience their first obsession because of heated rivalry. Folks are making earnest videos saying shit like “I need a psychologist to explain what is happening to me.” It’s a reminder that, unlike me, a lot of people are actually normal about stuff 😂

At dinner with friends last night someone referred to me as a “bereaved bisexual” and then everyone else nodded knowingly and honestly I’ve never felt more seen or understood 😂 Welcome to my palace of bisexual sorrow and a lifetime of feeling like a liar who doesn’t even exist. It’s lovely here.

I need a new video of Sam Reid talking with his gorgeous voice or I’m setting myself on fire I am so serious

Before you pick up your phone to call or text Shane Hollander, ask yourself if you’ve even considered Ilya’s feelings you selfish fuck.

I wonder who posted this? Is this actually confirmed? Why is episode 5 missing from the list? Is there even an episode 8? Where am I? Who am I? What’s the meaning of life and the universe?

I resolve to continue drawing even though I’m horrifically bad at it because it makes me happy. I will continue to cook pasta for my friends and then force them to watch or listen to whatever I’m obsessed with at the moment. I will make one more thing with my hands using clay.

Arrived in the UK a couple of days ago and immediately this app demanded I verify my age if I want full access (certain content and all DMs). And now my VPN won’t even let me log in. I was just here 3 months ago and none of this was happening. This feels like a sudden onset of intense censorship.

Thirty days ago I told myself I could try walking five miles every day and today I completed my 30th day. And the only reason I was consistent is because I decided every day whether I wanted to or not. It didn’t matter what happened yesterday or what might happen tomorrow.

Tough guy Ilya Rozanov the moment he’s given permission to be honest about how he feels: 😴😊🥰good morning, I like you ☺️😊🥹😌🥰

The way I feel about this is physically unsustainable. I cannot go on like this. HEATED RIVALRY I AM BEGGING YOU TO SET ME FREE

I don’t know WHAT is happening. Is Connor WEARING WINGS?

Me because Delainey posted a blurry story with no caption that I can barely even see clearly:

Grandpa I’m tired of reheating this rivalry please let me rest (me rewatching heated rivalry every moment I am at home and only able to think about anything else when I’m outside).

It is exhausting beyond words to see people compare IWTV with HR. In what world are there any parallels between these two shows? The genre, themes, characters, setting, motivations, even the time period are all vastly different. These shows exist in AND FOR different worlds and audiences.

Four years ago, in a bathroom in Las Vegas, Shane mentioned to Ilya that his dad loves The New Yorker. Ilya never forgot this tiny detail. This fandom is a prison and it will not set me free. #heatedrivalry

Rewatching every episode and consuming every single interview and edit IS NOT ENOUGH I NEED - actually I need to stop and rediscover some of my other interests and begin the slow path to leveling out my brain chemistry which right now is dangerously close to a dramatic unraveling. #heatedrivalry

“I have my own well. You can see it. In case you get thirsty” - Shane Hollander, being normal

I watched my firstborn husbands on the tv and it was so stupid and funny and just what I needed today that I almost cried when Jacob talked about Sam accidentally biting him for real in the early days when they were just figuring it all out 😭 I MISS THEM I LOVE THEM GIVE THEM BACK

“Does it fucking kill you, too?” “Not anymore.” We knew the love confession was coming and still when it happened I fell apart because once again it was just pure and gentle vulnerability and the only tension is that this is new. There is no punishment for falling in gay love. #heatedrivalry

And to the music director(s) of heated rivalry, I dedicate all of my finest gold and diamonds. May your pillow always be cold. May you never sit through traffic. May your coffee always be perfect. Thank you for your service 🫡

There is nothing anyone can say to convince me that this show isn’t a fucking gift to every queer person who ever lived.

Thank you, Canada, for giving the world this show and briefly pulling us out of the pits of hell. Thank you Rachel Reid for writing it. Thank you Jacob Tierney for bringing it to life. Thank you Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams for making them real. #heatedrivalry

I don’t know about you but what I need right now is to be sedated. #heatedrivalry

Okay here we go into the end 😭 #heatedrivalry (Episode 6 spoilers ahead)

Wish I could apologize for the person I will be during tonight’s finale but that would be a lie. I love you, big beautiful gay hockey show; thank you for being here for me. #heatedrivalry

GIRL I HOPE UR READY BECAUSE BY THIS TIME TOMORROW WE WILL HAVE SEEN EPISODE SIX 😭 #heatedrivalry

Ilya: I’m coming to the cottage the rest of us:
