Couple + Sibling/relative third wheel is honestly an S-tier trio dynamic and I wish we saw more of this in media.

"You are my soulmate. We are forged together by battle and tears and love. Also my brother's coming along."

"Yo."

Brittiläinen rock-musiikin legenda Ozzy Osbourne on kuollut, kertovat brittiläiset mediat. Hän oli kuollessaan 76-vuotias. The Sky Newsin mukaan Osbournen perhe kertoi tämän kuolemasta lausunnossa. ”Suuremmalla surulla kuin mitä sanat voivat ilmaista joudumme nyt kertomaan, että meidän rakas Ozzy Osbournemme kuoli tänä aamuna. Hän oli perheen seurassa ja rakkauden ympäröimä”, lausunnossa kerrotaan. Osbourne kertoi vuonna 2021 kärsivänsä Parkinsonin taudista. Osbourne syntyi Britannian Birminghamissa vuonna 1948. Hän nousi kuuluisuuteen 1970-luvulla metalliyhtye Black Sabbathin laulajana. Vuonna 1968 Birminghamissa perustettu yhtye oli metallimusiikin pioneeri, jonka albumit olivat arvostelu- ja myyntimenestyksiä.

Osbourne pääsi uransa aikana sekä Britannian UK Music Hall of Fameen että Yhdysvaltain US Rock and Roll Hall of Fameen - molempiin sekä sooloartistina että Black Sabbathin jäsenenä. Osbourne tunnettiin uransa aikana lempinimillä Pimeyden prinssi tai Pimeyden ruhtinas. Hänen vauhdikas elämäntapansa ja esiintymistyylinsä teki hänestä kohutun hahmon. Esimerkiksi vuonna 1982 Osbourne puraisi keikan aikana lavalle heitetyltä lepakolta pään irti. Myöhemmin Osbourne kertoi luulleensa lepakkoa leluksi.

Black Sabbath esiintyi viimeisen kerran vain muutama viikko sitten, kun yhtyeen alkuperäisjäsenet esiintyivät vielä kerran yhdessä - ensimmäistä kertaa 20 vuoteen. Birminghamissa järjestetyssä konsertissa esiintyi myös Osbournen suosikkiyhtyeitä, kuten Metallica ja Guns'n'Roses. Paikalle saapui kymmeniätuhansia faneja. – Ette voi uskoa miltä tämä tuntuu - kiitos sydämeni pohjasta, Osbourne kertoi faneille konserttilavalta.

With everything that's been going on lately, here's a short non-comprehensive accumulation of things that could be called progress regarding relations between men's hockey and being queer:

The 🇦🇺 AIHL's Melbourne Mustangs, advocating for trans rights in sports since 2017, and the same team in 2023, donning pride jerseys designed by former goalie (and twin sister of Ty) Tia Wishart who is part of the LGBTQ community.

Jase Polglase of the AIHL's Central Coast Rhinos who puts pride tape on his stick every single game.

Robert Dowd and Marc-Olivier Vallerand having a dance after a win with the Sheffield Steelers.

Starting off with individual efforts, the 🇬🇧 EIHL has since extended their pride event to the duration of a full weekend following a conjoint initiative by the teams' fanbases in 2019.

Zach Sullivan, one of the few out queer athletes in the sport, felt supported enough by his team to come out as bisexual ahead of the Manchester Storm's pride game in 2020.

Danish goalie Jon Lee-Olsen came out as gay a year prior and was reportedly supported by his teammates.

The 🇸🇪 SHL lead the way, awarding the cause a full week since 2019 with elaborate campaigns and getting refs as well as coaches involved. It's a colorful sight.

While Pride Games are at present not an official part of the schedule, several 🇩🇪 DEL teams are joining in. Augsburg and Köln do their part, Berlin has one of the dedicated queer fanclubs and visibly stands against homophobia since at least 2016.

As of 2022 the entire league, as well as a growing number of clubs in the tiers below, cooperate with Hockey is Diversity e.V.. So does the Para Ice Hockey National Team, including Jörg Wedde, who also keeps pride tape on his equipment.

🇫🇮 Liiga's TPS added these stunning jerseys to the mix.

While all the aforementioned teams already wear the jerseys for at least one full game, IF Kiruna of the Swedish 3rd league stepped it up several notches. In 2014 they've decided to wear rainbow jerseys for a full season in support of the LGBTQ community. Since then they've made the rainbow a permanent fixture in their logo and club identity.

___

Plenty of clubs out there hosting events where queer people are given a platform and shown support in a multitude of ways that aren't merely empty words.

And even if it's not part of general discussions within a league, you've got voices who are willing to speak up.

It's the internet's millennial mom back here again with an extremely unpopular opinion that I need you all to internalize:

There are no food rules, ESPECIALLY when you're just feeding yourself.

The internet (and specifically TikTok, Pinterest, etc) has become obsessed with beautifully plated meals that follow certain conventions. It's all bullshit.

Crack your pasta in half before you put in the pot. Put BBQ sauce on your salad. Do whatever the hell you need to do to get nutrients into your body. The only rule is you need to eat.

Slow down. In everything you do, slow down. Society has made such a mess in this world by hurrying all the time. Push back by slowing down.

"you don't owe anyone anything" You are a tar pit. Speak for yourself. I personally owe the cafe employees my dishes put away and my friends a listening ear and small scared insects a cup and a gentle trip outside. Hyperindividualism is a rancid infection borne of capitalism and willfully misinterpreted therapyspeak and I will defy it by continuing to be kind regardless of whether or not it benefits me personally
