love island should introduce a "scheming eunuch" islander who is like a smart and completely asexual islander exempt from being kicked off or being made to participate in any challenges and they're just there to provide advice and be a sort of sounding board for the other islanders when they need a disinterested party to talk things through with. but the scheming eunuch has secret goals unbeknownst to anyone e.g. a cash prize for talking a certain couple into breaking up etc.

just read a letterboxd review for brokeback mountain that was so bad i had to redownload tumblr app to post about it 🚬🚶 genuinely first line was “this wasn’t relatable to me at all” as a prelude to insisting it was inauthentically queer. girl how are queer people still thinking like this YOUR EXPERIENCES ARE NOT UNIVERSAL AND YOU ARE ANNOYINGGGGGG
u are literally spitting on heath ledger’s grave like
UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
i can’t do this i rly can’t.
I personally do not think that alexei is blackmailing ilya or that he has enough power over ilya to threaten him in any meaningful way. ilya is paying for everything because he knows his family’s entire financial situation is riding on him and he does have the money and also his family is expert at guilt-tripping him/pointing to all the sacrifices they made for him/just generally making him feel his obligations to them keenly. that said I DO think alexei knows or at least strongly suspects that ilya sleeps with men and this enrages him not because of the homosexuality but because this fucking asshole does whatever the fuck he wants and it doesn’t change the fact that ilya was their mother’s favorite when she was alive and is their father’s favorite still. ilya comes home as infrequently as possible and avoids their dad’s calls and has sex with men and he’s the one who has all the money, all the fame, all the family love and pride (whatever love there is to have in that family, anyway). like that’s a real cain and abel setup right there.
i think it's funny when a character is almost exclusively referred to by their last name by other people and this carries over into their internal monologue when someone writes from their pov. not even on a first name basis with herself

favourite scene in hackers 1995 is the sexy dream sequence where they show a woman lounging in bed wearing a red latex bodysuit and feeling herself up but turns out it's jonny lee miller the whole time and then angelina jolie wakes up in a cold sweat
I do think the ability to emoji-react is a net win for human communication. not only does it give you an outlet for 'I see and acknowledge this but don't have a verbal response' but it also adds a pleasing alethiometer element to things
my coworker announces that he's off to the dentist. someone reacts with a tooth emoji. is this a statement of dentist solidarity? a wish for my coworker to return with more (or fewer?) teeth than he set out with? simple word association? who can say

The Tiger by Nael, Age 6
One of my less popular takes is outside of the occasional homophobic penetration anxiety fueled chirps---and those are only coming from the most fervent, least self-aware homophobes---I think the hockey world by and large de-eroticizes Shane and Ilya's relationship. Fandom often imagines the opposite, because fandom pretty much only knows how to eroticize relationships, and projects that dynamic onto the fictional public. But gay relationships are more often de-eroticized.
I think with Shane and Ilya's marriage it's this dual consciousness thing where everyone knows they're married, obviously, it was a huge deal. But it's like a quantum marriage, unless you're looking directly at it it's just not perceived. Rookies and trades are completely taken aback the first time they see Shane and Ilya snuggle together at the bar after a game, or kiss, or head off to their shared room. It's like oh right. Right. They're married. Obviously they would---right. Sure. We all saw the kiss. I guess. I kinda tried to forget about that.
In general I think no one upon no one wants to imagine two of hockey's greats being sincerely attracted to another man. That's like---fucking embarrassing. These are the guys you idolized most in the entire world, and now...? The cognitive dissonance is too much, so most just ignore it. Shane and Ilya are constantly having to remind people that they are in fact each other's husbands. They're going to All-Stars and some assistant keeps calling Shane up to ask if he wants event tickets for his partner or family and finally he's like "my husband already has an event ticket he's playing in the goddamn game."
Now I do think the Cens team, org, and home media are pretty good about it, they know Ilya and Shane personally and they've had a long time to wrap their heads around the idea that they're together. So they talk about it normally and causally. I think the Cens home announcers in particular love to drop marriage tea they manage to get from Shane and Ilya in the hallways and such. Stuff like "You know Ryan, I asked Shane this last week....he told me he can't carpool with Rozanov anymore because their music tastes are too different [cue for cheesy announcer laughter]"
But when the Cens games are national broadcast? Oh it's a shit show. The national announcers are ALWAYS weird as fuck about it, being evasive or awkward every time Ilya and Shane interact at all. Cens fans get super annoyed every single time and take to Twitter and Reddit en masse to complain. It basically becomes a meme among NHL fans that if a Cens game is picked for national broadcast the Cens fandom is gonna be rabid for the night. Ron Lemon becomes infamous for sparring with Cens fans on the topic, until he becomes practically banned from Ottawa (if he's seen around the city people legitimately get pissed off)
