Rambling of a knitting sci-fi geek.

ilya promising children cash if they win knowing he's gonna let them win and then asking shane for money because he doesn't have his wallet. he wasn't even an annoying husband yet but he was letting shane know his potential

OMG, I'm watching a video about this, and it's even weirder. That wasn't even a friend, it was a rando who saw her tiktok talking about the concept and randomly emails her this AI-generated book. That's even weirder.

And then when she says she doesn't like it, and several NYT BESTSELLING AUTHORS who all happen to be women all explain to him why he's in the wrong, he talks down to them and doubles and triples and quadruples down. But then the moment the woman's husband gets involved, he immediately apologizes to "him and his wife." Just breathtaking levels of misogyny.

He was talking about releasing the shit he generated with the idea he STOLE FROM HER for free if she continued not responding to him, and then acted like she was being insane when she clarified that she didn't respond on purpose 😭😭😭 What goes through these people's heads!!!!!!!!!

Something profoundly wrong with this dude and yet he's incapable of noticing.

Do you think after they send the taumeoba samples to Venus and the apocalypse is averted, there are people back on Earth who are like "See, this is why we should pay teachers more"

The United Educators of San Francisco do a press release at some point that's like "Former UESF union member Dr. Ryland Grace has officially saved the planet, proving once again that teachers are undervalued"

getting so hard I’m gonna faint at the thought of some player chirping Ilya post coming out but it’s specifically targeted at Ilya’s mother (irina foundation being common knowledge) and for once, Ilya doesn’t have a comeback- he’s in a slump, he’s depressed, he’s feeling raw, and he freezes- just long enough for Shane to glide up, drop his gloves and punch the guy in the face so hard he knocks him out cold <3 that’s Shane’s man you’re talkin to <3

ilya struggling with emergency contacts. he can't put his father. who barely remembers he has a son in the show. barely remember he has a son at all some nights. can't put his brother. god fucking forbid something happens and Alexi picks up the phone. he probably wouldn't really. wants sometimes to put his mother down so bad it hurts. an ache in his stomach that feels like a sucker punch. leaves it blank most times. when he can get away with it. puts Svetlana when he can't. lies and says she's a cousin and never tells her because she'd laugh so hard she'd probably choke. and he'd laugh too and then spend the night trying to remember what was funny anyhow. pretends he doesn't care when he watches shane fill out forms deftly. mom. dad. like it wasn't anything at all. ilya who marries shane. one day. after all that aching and waiting and preemptive and permanent grief he felt so often he forgot it was there. who gets those stupid annual papers and writes (like it isn't anything at all) Yuna. David. and has to pretend it doesn't close a gaping wound he'd been bleeding from for so long it almost scares him. to press on and find no. I belong. I have a family. a family.

the threads girlies are planning to donate to charity on the 10th to celebrate the hollanov wedding anniversary and i think we should get in on this too…….

apparently jacob is a fan of the rainbow railroad, which helps get queer people in crisis to safety. others are saying parkinson’s canada in honor of rachel. idk if this post gets traction maybe we can vote on if we want to all donate to our favorite LGBTQ charity or if we want to vote on something for all of us to donate to.

Scrolled past this agakn and just can't get over how much I love it. We need to make things beautiful again and this is such a wonderful example. The beadwork on the wires of a utitarian object, contrasted with the grey concrete.

Thinking about Centaurs movie night, maybe they're on a roadie and everybody piles into the Hollanov suite (they get the biggest room, always has a nice TV and space for everybody who wants to come) and they put on some movie, maybe a Disney princess film or a Princess Bride type movie with a romance. After the ending Ilya cracks the joke "Shane 🥺 why don't you romance me like this? Always 'you are asshole' and 'am better at hockey', where is the wooing??" And the Centaurs fall over themselves laughing and chirping until Shane gets that little-shit smirk and comes over to take Ilyas hand, brings it to his mouth for a classic hand kiss with smouldering eyes and suddenly Ilya is bright fucking red and has absolutely nothing to say back to that 🤣

Über die Krankschreibung ab dem ersten Tag zusammen mit der abgeschafften telefonischen Krankschreibung werden sich die Hausärzte bestimmt freuen. Nicht.

ilya loves shane’s baby pictures yes but shane is insane about baby ilya he makes ilya’s contact picture a baby picture, he frames the few pictures of ilya and irina that ilya had, he immediately tears up at the thought of baby ilya, when he finds out most of his pictures are back in russia he begs svetlana to figure out a way to get them, theres one home video of ilya playing hockey that irina recorded and he spends so much time and money preserving it, he literally bursts into tears when he finally sees a picture of how young ilya looked when his mom died - shane is not normal about baby ilya!!!!
