On the whole I like it here, and I like not supporting M*sk in any way, but I really, REALLY miss Hockey Twitter. It's the playoffs, goalies are dropping like flies, Ovi keeps scoring, Flower is retiring, Tom Wilson is Tom Wilsoning, the PWHL is expanding. Hockey Twitter is probably lit right now 🏒🔥

Last time I engaged w/ the guy next to me on an international flight (talked about movies, shared recs on what to watch), he drank too much then when the flight attendant wouldn't bring him a drink turned to me & said "what a bitch" & then I had to sit next to him another 4 hours so nah. Earbud me.

Has anyone ever said "My rights are a distraction?" It's always someone else's rights, right?

lol remember when Swiss Hockey blackballed Théo Rochette because he said no to traveling to Jr. Worlds & double-quarantining at the peak of the pandemic? Dude had a 4-point night including a natural hat-trick in the playoff finals (I know they finally rescinded the ban but the arrogance still burns)

Come by the Open Mic today to see if I can keep it together and pronounce "musculoaponeurotic" properly in public! Also, if you've ever wanted to hear somebody use musculoaponeurotic in a poem, I'm your girl! #NOPF #TumorMoon🌖

All events originally scheduled at St. Roch Tavern have been smoothly moved to Siberia, just a 6-minute walk from the New Orleans Healing Center. Vibes are equally great!! 😌

I could have gone on and on about What Good Is Heaven by @rayehendrix.bsky.social but I had a word limit, so I focused on how they complicate mercy, kindness, and violence raintaxi.com/what-good-is... Get your own copy to discover everything else this amazing book is doing
