overprotective brother
#when is international big brother day? today actually i’m deciding. we’re posting this and the sveches 🫡#just know i ALSO saw the other angle of the mic grab and op you are a real one. we needed that but the thoughts i have about that one are#[reeeeedacted soooo redacted redacted redacted redacted and ***** ** ******] and this post is being Wholesome for the moment!!! op ily tho#overprotective brother is a role arber has been playing his entire life it is SO visible in the body language like florian. baby girl.#arm crossed over his body smalling himself even though he’s taller than arber the shy little smile oh i am obsessed. also arber PLEASE#will you slit your eyebrow for me. will you get any kind of piercing i am not picky but i want metal detectors to go off when you walk thru#i just love the pre-emptive statement and threat like if anybody WAS thinking about it now they’re gonna be scared off because the second#they do they know arber’s coming for them & also i desperately need all of my paper dolls in the same house have florian & slaf interacted??#is arber still slaf’s guard dog now that florian’s here? is this another jack dropping ty for luke showing up (except slaf has gühle)#is arber even really supposed to be in this press conference or is he just being florian’s emotional support as he goes through his media#because we are all well aware of how montreal’s media is it eats its players alive!! and arber’s already stepping in to protect him there#have been rotating this in my head so hard while i did other things vital to my life that i was literally IN THE SHWOER when i went ‘hunh#wait i wonder if slaf will fight to protect florian too’ and just spiraled like. that’s his baby brother now right of course he’d protect#florian with his life because a) he loves arber and b) i’ve had his baby face for about two hours and i’d kill a man for him like??? easy#florian xhekaj#arber xhekaj#montreal canadiens#arber SOOOO pleased with himself i will simply never recover from florian’s little ☺️ that’s my brother guys ohhh i gotta have some unhinged#brothers quotes for them. abt to go scroll the brothers tag to see if any of them are not tragic for once!! also can we speak abt the charm#nemcklance

Vancouver Canucks mixed media animation process vid by rapruesign!! I love this guy's work, he usually does basketball (mostly NBA but he's done a couple women's college basketball animations too) and it's sick as hell, this is his first hockey animation. Reel without animating process here if you want to see it, but since this is my blog, I'm posting the process video bc I love watching how artists create 🫡

Dysprosium, Mary Soon Lee
dysprosium, AN 66, is a silvery-white rare earth metal. its name is derived from the greek dysprositos, meaning “hard to get at”, owing to the difficulty in separating and isolating this rare earth element. dysprosium is used to measure neutron flux, to fuel reactors, and to activate phosphors. terfenol-d is a magnetorestrictive alloy, meaning that it changes shape when a magnetic field is applied, and is used to manufacture underwater acoustic systems.
jason “robo” robertson, dallas stars #21 for @simmyfrobby’s nhl periodic table poems <3
#i had a couple different ideas for poems that were taken by the time i could go deranged for a couple hours to make this but as I looked#i was like WAIT NONE OF YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE JASON ROBERTSON YOU HAVEN’T SEEN MY TEXAS CAM and had to do it. also was STRUCK with the#sudden immaculate vision of the Dallas D as part of terfenol-D and could not get it out & robo is the most dance! person i know on the team#liv in the replies#dallas stars#jason robertson#nhl periodic table poems#guys i am plagued with visions and no execution skills!! every day i come here and learn one new skill on GIMP the way god intended!!!#today it was emboss. also cannot claim any credit for the pulse to the magnetic beat photo which is so cool that was one where i had a#couple and was like maybe i can do like crayon shockwaves like the art process video kasper showed? and then found that picture and was#like thank you lord stanley for knowing my limitations. thank you for your understanding in this moment it was a trial enough to make#expand contract dance and one would THINK i would have fucking learned from the claude animorphs tragedy!! i did not. but i did use the#shear tool and 3D rotate so at least if we’re animorphing it’s SLIGHTLY better. anyway me frantically doing this like WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT#WAIT FOR ME YOU GUYS ARE SO FAST i keep seeing all of these and just spinning around in circles until i get dizzy & fall down I’m so happy#the drive folder for this is just called joy!!!!! because joy this is such a cool idea but now because it brings me so much joy#i just saw the Travis dermott one and burst into tears super normal AND someone did exactly what i wanted with hydrogen which was the water#the ice!!!!! it’s so perfect!!! and cody ofc did silver lord stanley. like does it ever make you cry how beautiful & creative everyone is?#anyway if you see me post and delete this and then update it or change it no you didn’t it’s fine. but i wanted to be included#if i could make the dysprosium letters not have a white background i would I simply could not fuck with it at 1AM. we are hitting send#it may not look like it but i queue#pretend i spoke at length about the reasons why i picked all the pictures & the element just know that it’s there inside my brain u can ask#GUYS I TAKE IT ALL BACK I SAW NEONFRETRA’S ISOTOPES AND I COULD MAKE THE EDITS EVEN THOUGH THEY’RE THERE!!

Interviewer: I know you and Mo are pretty good friends, but I don’t know if you know that Thursday’s giveaway is a Mo Seider… it’s call ‘Grow Mo’s Flow.’ So basically it’s like a chia pet that grows Mo’s hair. I want you to give me your thoughts on Mo’s actual hair.” Lucas Raymond: “I saw that, and I think it’s pretty funny. I got one at home, actually. I think Mo has great hair. I’ve seen it in many, many shapes and forms. You know, early mornings and stuff like that, but he has great hair. He has a lot of hair, most importantly… so it’s good. Good set of full [hair].” Interviewer: “Okay, not to be weird, but do you have a favorite stage of Mo’s hair. Like, in the morning Mo’s hair is a mess. *laughs*” Lucas Raymond: “Yeah, probably the morning… could get a little wild, but he has a good set of hair.” Interviewer: “Yeah, he does have a great set of hair. Have you seen his headshot, though? He let it get a little crazy for that one.” Lucas Raymond: “I have seen that, and that’s one of my favorite pictures of his hair, actually.” Interviewer: “I’m glad you like it. Okay, does he have the best hair on the team, though? Because let’s be honest, you have some teammates that have some pretty good hair. Lucas Raymond: “Yeah, yeah, for sure. I think he’s up there. I don’t think he’s the best. I think the best is Ben Chiarot. I think has an unbelievable set of hair. And also Alex Debrincat. Great hair.
Interviewer: “All right. I’m not sure Mo’s going to like that one, but that’s good.” Lucas Raymond: “Fabs also has great hair. He has a lot of hair, but he has great hair.” Interviewer: “That’s the Italian — you get a lot of hair.” Lucas Raymond: “Yup, yup. Looks great.”
-The Red & White Authority podcast (March 21, 2024)
#AND THE INTERVIEWER WAS INSANE FOR THIS ONE BUT I’M KISSING THEM ON THE MOUTH THIS IS THE JOURNALISM THE PEOPLE NEED ->#Okay not to be weird but do you have a favorite stage of Mo’s hair. Like in the morning Mo’s hair is a mess.#BESTIE YOU’RE A FREAK LIKE THE REST OF US i wish that they compelled me so bad because they’re so. like they’re unhinged for this they know#lucas confirming that his favorite hair is mo’s freshly woken up bedhead? like ok go off girl. i feel so normal about that normal and fine#rookies of the year#lucas raymond#moritz seider my beloved#detroit ride or die#also i am WHEEZING laughing that lucas goes ‘yeah benny has the best hair’ is that an apology? does benny have the best hair really?#like lovingly we all know you said kitty because you love him and no other reason that man does not have close to the best flow on the team#& i say that w/a full heart of a NOT hater. like i’m sorry i do love that man. i just think lucas might have said it to make him feel nice#fabs hairy italian rights ✊😔 me too buddy. but that one is for real fabs is absolutely gorgeous &i’ll defend that one with my life he is soo#lucas like ‘can’t let it get to mo’s head i gotta roast him a little bit tell him he DOESN’T have the best hair on the team’#(the rest of the team unanimously thinks that he does) (also can i just say they did NOT ask joe about the best hair on the team…#& i want to know if it’s because he went off on like. a minute long answer about mo in my head he did don’t tell me otherwise please & ty)#HI EVERYONE IN HONOR OF THE SWEET BABY RAY RAY SIGNING AND ALSO THE FACT THAT I COULD NOT LOOK AT HIM AND MO PLAYING IN MANNHEIM TOGETHER#PLEASE HAVE THIS UNHINGED POST I SAVED IN MY DRAFTS ABOUT THEM BEING FREAKS ABOUT EACH OTHER!!!! god i wish they compelled me so bad#the raw material with which to build narratives is simply. yeah i took you to meet my dad (old team germany captain moritz müller)#and we lived together and then lived in the same complex and threw footballs from our balcony and on the roofs and also were attached at#the hip and also have given unhinged quotes about each other. lucas i am NOT over you saying you have a favorite mo hairstyle first of all#and while i know it’s probably supposed to be a chirp about how crazy mo’s curls can get you really took this question and answered it like#yeah i really like his morning after hair after we fucked. yeah when he first wakes up and he’s still in bed. yeah (sentimental BITCH) god.#anyway maybe if i have the mental fortitude i will find the pictures of mo and lucas skating together in ädler mannheim jersey simply for#posterity but unfortunately i do not think i have the willpower nor the capacity to even look. like you guys i skimmed them with my eyeball#and felt deranged if i am forced to look at them?? to think about them for longer than 0.00001 seconds? no absolutely not.

thinking about how when you punch a mirror so that it cracks and fractures into multiple shards reflecting your own visage back at you, you're really just ironically surrounding yourself with more of the self you loathe in your quest to attain self-destruction. the grotesque reproductive quality of gouging pieces from yourself in order to lessen the burden of existence, and in the process only proliferating more individual aspects of You, shedding them as you go. much to consider.
#um. so we’re gonna call back to something because all of you live inside my brain and know exactly what i’m referencing at all times but#this is the fix-it fic where connor pulls his grace out of his body and goes to anaheim and sews himself back together but worse. where#chicago doesn’t let go of him and even as he gets more and more broken he doesn’t fail because it was never a gift all along it was always#him. how you can be so deep inside something and you think you’re clawing your way out but really you’re just making the hole deeper.#sorry connor they were never going to let you go. anyway also in the vein of the shedding pieces of you connor having to reckon with all#the pieces he pulled out having them on a shelf somewhere? shipping them in a fed-ex box off to mason for safe-keeping? this is also#potentially more a rebuild sequel of connor having to choose whether or not he wants those blessings back does he like who he became#without them? does he want everything? accepting every piece of himself and the memories associated and yes i am obsessed with him pulling#the bone out of his elbow but now i want to know about how he gets them back in. is it wolverine retractable claws is it that he has to#eat them up and let them digest does it metastasize like does. OH. DO THE BLESSINGS FIGHT BACK OF COURSE THEY DON’T WANT TO BE REMOVED#how with every single one pulled out there’s still more leftover sorry to the tragic plot but hydra head you pull part out and now more is#blessed somehow he’s doing better. and not like out of pity like oh for how poor/hurt/lost you are you’re doing so well it’s just Better i-#connor grappling with what does it mean to be the next next next one. how do you removed yourself from something you’re so entrenched in#that’s calcified in your bones and then something about how every ten years your bones are replaced/remodeled. remade by pressure & connor#from so young being shaped into something or NOT. refusing. god also there’s so many narratives i want to throw this at & see how it sticks#oh found the sorting tag i think. however this ALSO made me find a flipped version of the cracked vessel-ness of it all that fits so much#better (connor pulling the Human pieces out of him so that he’s all god) which ohhh connor surrounded by the bits of his humanity w/this ->#HELLO PREVS UR UNHINGED FOR THAT ONE this sounds like the epitaph to a 50k behemoth fic ->#connor bedard#and am i personally struggling with the fallibility of the body right now? we don’t need to talk about that. all i’m saying is when they#tell u the odds are maybe it simply never heals at all what do you do with that? connor having to decide if ripping himself apart is worth#the odds of never being able to put himself back together in the same way & what becomes acceptable. the aches & pains as always of playing#and you can’t cut the weakness out. in vestigial old gods how there’s always a cost to being a vessel (the enforcer doesn’t feel no pain)#(it’s just that they’re driven to push through it) (the curse of foresight breaking you of knowing the exact way in which you will die MY G#D CAREY IN THAT MTL PLAYOFF GAME NO) and connor beautiful vessel trying to circumvent the curse/blessing. also somehow here w/the flipped#aspect is the illusion of choice in vestigial old gods (pride to a fault) that you won’t be like everyone else. OH WAIT HOLD ON EVERY SINGL#ONE OF THEM AS THE SHARDS!! EVERY TIME ONE OF THE CRACKS THE PIECES THAT SLIP OUT GO TO SOMEONE ELSE IT’S ALL THE SAME GOD &THEY DON’T KNOW#rip to ovi but your stick-fail season coincides perfectly with the bedsy rookie year narrative OR the sid & the ancient pens narrative.#probably that one because i think there’s a different pantheon from the stevie/sergei arc but ovi making a deal seems plausible. like how#auston gets a demon in the one fic even though he’s not a good canadian boy sometimes if you’re enough they’ll take you.

#i’m gonna need everyone to strap the fuck in for a second because i don’t know what prev was actually talking about but this is where my#closet caps fandom comes into play because i saw the phrase ‘capital gains tax’ blacked out and like every normal human being i immediately#went ‘oh so how when you join the caps you get a wife and two kids. dad tax. you know?’ and ignoring the fact that this is going to happen#in real life because the caps will get brandon to put a ring on kaylee (i think? is her name? they’ve been together forever) and they’ll be#popping out babies EYE was immediately like hahahaha THE WISHBABY AU of course you know. common lore the caps have a wishbaby curse (?) (is#it really a curse) but just. well-known caps magic like cup magic. you come to the caps we don’t know what it is but you’re super likely to#get a wishbaby and my GOD if brandon going to the caps is not For Me and specifically for the heartbreak of those wishbaby twins (i say#referencing a tag that i wrote ???? ago and i have no idea if anyone else remembers. pretend you do it was a really good plot and ANYWAY#it fits so much better for the plot if i get to infuse caps lore instead of random colorado avalanche knowing about brandon’s baby &helping#because it means i can put TJ OSHIE in this fic and the entire botherington capitals team into this fic because their asses WOULD show up#to help brandon take care of a baby. not that i don’t think beautiful gabe landeskog would be able to but a) he really Was Not There and b)#the avs simply do not have the Dad Energy the caps do and that i feel personally suits brandon duhaime. this is For Me. but also OP WHAT#does spare parts bud eh??? mean?????? hello??????? help?????? desolate???? like i am assuming it has to do with his blank little face#standing off to the side wondering what is going on but like bud. oh bud. you cannot break my heart like that okay? i cannot DO that#i’m trying to give this man a baby. you would be correct if you also stated that i was giving him horrific pining and longing & light angst#to go with said baby (believes connor doesn’t love him / broke up / never got together with him and now connor has someone else he thinks)#but that is a WHOLE different can of worms than a man thinking he doesn’t belong somewhere on a hockey team. one noted for saying#they don’t want you? we do. like that’s a whole other level of heartbreak and there’s no way they don’t break him in and get him circled up#and immediately saddled with a best friend and family unit like they’ll take care of him i know they well. also on a related dreaming note#caps PLEASE sign madison bowey. as long as i’m manifesting just do it for me okay please. please my intricate narratives baby beans is back#brandon duhaime#washington capitals#anyway going into the actual details of the wishbaby i think a baby showing up in the middle of the caps locker room is not unprecedented#especially if a guy gets traded there so everyone’s gentle with him and used to it and prepped the equipment staff have everything on hand#and of course the caps have a joint daycare system also literally all their kids go to school together so for MY logistics. do we think#brandon flies his mom out to help take care of the baby or does he hide it and not let anyone know for forever. can’t decide how normalized#i want wishbabies to be like definitely i want them to be unusual and strange and it’s not like everyone knows oh you love someone (or#something so much you can wish for it even if you don’t know you’re wishing and sometimes the universe reaches a tiny little finger a nail#no bigger than a grain of sugar back out to touch yours a beautiful little baby) but like i cannot stress how much i want this to be a#massive pivotal change in brandon’s life and literally just another day in the office. oh lovesick coworker? yeah we know. he’ll figure it

*And people are wrong about urban myths. Logic and reason say that these are fictional creations, retold again and again by people who are hungry for evidence of weird coincidence, natural justice and so on. They aren’t. They keep on happening all the time, everywhere, as the stories bounce back and forth across the universe ... Urban myths are alive.

I don’t blog about sports, but early this morning my favourite athlete Johnny ‘Hockey’ Gaudreau was knocked off his bicycle and killed along with his younger brother the night before their sister’s wedding. He had just turned 31 years old, married his next door neighbour and had a toddler daughter and a 6 month old son (who were planned to be flower girl and ring bearer at the wedding).
Tumblr media
I adored Johnny because he was a such a small streak of lightning in a game full of huge dudes who were regularly a whole foot taller than him. His skills were just fucking phenomenal and he was so exciting to watch. I screamed with joy and cheered him on so loudly I lost my voice on many occasions. He represented his country for International Competitions and is the highest US point scorer.
I could get technical and talk about my favourite goals of his, his stickhandling, dangles, on ice spatial awareness etc but it is all on film for anyone to see, just too much to choose from. Nobody moved like Johnny Hockey.
As a person he was a sweet, kind guy who was universally liked in the sport and beyond. I do not follow celebrities on social media, but on hockey forums there are endless stories of his voracious love of mac and cheese (so much so Kraft put him in a TV ad) and skittles candies that he had a hockey stick covered in them and auctioned for charity.
In interviews he always talked hockey and his family. Whenever asked about new contracts and paycheques he would just shrug and say ‘yeah I bought my dad a boat so we can go fishing’ or ‘I just got a cool new wheelchair lift installed in my holiday home so my cousin can come and spend time with me’, or change the subject and talk about his dog, his wife and kids or The Birds. He was a real gem of a gentleman, modest and always ready to give credit to his team and dad (legendary NJ coach Guy Gaudreau) who motivated Johnny to skate as a toddler by placing skittles candies on the ice for him to fetch.
I’m am so sad for him, his family. This is just a blurb of feels about someone I counted down the days for until I could see them make magic on ice. I wish I could write a good tribute, dammit. Thank you Johnny Hockey.

Eric Nystrom’s well-performed striptease
#NO hockey ONLY soap operas and burlesque#eric nystrom#nashville predators#OH MY GOD HERE IT IS I SPENT THIRTY MINUTES OF MY LIFE LOOKING FOR THIS (also making flashcards but that's besides the point) I KNEW#THIS EXISTED I KNEW I HAD IT I THOUGHT IT WAS A VIDEO THAT'S WHY I COULDN'T FIND IT AT FIRSTTTTTTTT#anyway. everything about this to me. beautiful perfect exactly what i want#also if i'm not mistaken this is eric nystrom of another famous gifset of the 'we're just trying really hard' third line fame#which is a project for tomorrow me to find if i posted it or if that is ALSO buried in my drafts somewhere (i am betting on drafts)#(conditionally again if i don’t get called in work. juraj puppy posts r coming i swear i just need like. 4-5 straight solid processing hrs)#and i love him so much. this is SUCH a performance and i think everyone should commit to the bit this hard#granted do he and marty simply have different styles? is marty gonna be a parisian cabaret singer while eric is a magic-mike style stripper#with a glitter thong? (do i mean sparkly or that he pulls glitter out of it? probably both) but i will respect the craft of both of them. W#WAIT OH MY GOD I KNOW I SAID PARISIAN CABARET SINGER BECAUSE I WAS THINKING OF SOA DE MUSE BUT I FORGOT MARTY SPEAKS FRENCH I'M SORRY#HE IS FRENCH CANADIAN HE COULD REALLY DO A CABARET PERFORMANCE IN FRENCH KEDOWLENFLBJFLWF i also do fully think if nystrom#had a glitter thong (jock) he would wear it. the big arms. the sweeping motions#incorporating the ice full use of the stage and props (goalie net) into his routine. the open and close of the garter belt (?) is SO.#dramatically flinging the arm guards GIRL the spinning removal of the chest protector this is EVERYTHING TO MEEEEEEEEE#the shimmy taking his pants down. the way the net looks like when the performers are wandering the crowd and hop on to sit at#the table of the richest customers in the club with the two coaches (?) standing behind him gossiping to each other.#PLEASE. did he rip his entire shirt? is that a zipper or did he just rip it??? i know he ripped it i just don't want to believe it#but he is so serious this is a P E R F O R M A N C E this is high art and if you disagree hit the road i cannot explain how obsessed i am#it's been in my drafts for so long with nothing because it's perfection on its own i can't add anything on.#if i could present w/no comment just to let all of u have the undiluted emotions i would unfortunately: cursed to yap. gab. shriek unholily#&THE GLOVES WE CAN'T FORGET HIM YEETING THE GLOVES INTO HIS CROWD TO RILE THEM UP LIKE THE VERY FIRST SILK GLOVE BEING PEELED OFF!!!#wait why tf did i tag this as nashville predators he is definitely not in a nashville jersey here. so it must be true about the gifs#calgary flames
