[PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING THIS]
veryyyyyyyyyyyy quick post
> i am making progress on my dumb project :saluting_face: 🥲🥲🥲 i'm just so god damn slow and it feels like there are still a million action items to get through but the work is being done... and i've learned new things along the way! this is literally going to be so jank but it's fine
> you ever think of how some guys can get away with being total freaks just because they have sanitized public images like... this post brought to you by the fact that nathan mackinnon is honestly not even that crazy because i feel like chickpea pasta is such a relatively mundane and non-serious thing to hem and haw over but it's the One sticking point people have when they make fun of his restrictive athletic tendencies and yet robo was out there on local television like For A News Channel going I have never drank a drop of alcohol in my life. I don't believe in juice. like what the fuck was that all about? there is something severely wrong with him. tbf natemac Intensity goes beyond his eating habits but there's no way a man's primary hobby is playing fifa if he isn't at least keeping some modicum of thinly-veiled toxicity in check you know
eta: lol
> the robo thesis is really just ~harmonious contradiction~ and everything is exactly as it seems to the point that nothing is what it says it is
re:title i seriously have to stop caring about qhughes it's actually like a moral failing at this point but every time people are like Wait he's actually thoughtful and well-spoken and cares about being regarded as a leadership presence? das wat i've been sayinnnnn
honestly all media is stupid because there is so often zero balance between straight-up devaluation and then extolling bare-minimum advocacy which is like. ok anyway. but even the thing with >I'm not a defensive liability just strikes me as not even him being combative with media or even necessarily defensive but more like a straight-forward circular "here is me showing my capacity for self-reflection" kind of thing. i don't know how 2 explain... i feel like he offers so much honesty but to no real productive end which is really fascinating, because he goes off-script but rarely in a way that feels like he's "giving in" to any explicit media prompting or losing his temper over it. i said this a month ago but idk
although it's all kind of meaningless to me at the end of the day i did appreciate >quinn explicitly using the word celebrate >expressly linking the act itself to hife ideology in positioning it as a conditional >recalling that they wore the jersey during the bubble when there weren't even any fans as a kind of approximation for This is a concept that exists independently of the team-fan relationship, e.g. implicit allyship to teammates and staff and people in the org around them >bear being like Well. i don't understand it at all and cannot relate!
the media making a big deal of the announcement delay was unnecessarily vancouverly but it could have been worse. as always it is what it is
eta2... many thoughts 2 be had but they aren't necessarily productive. i do think pride still matters as an event in its own right when it extends beyond the fanfare and focal point of player action and is more so a collective organizational effort at local initiatives, charity work, festivities, etc. and i do think the canucks did what they could there. the sharks were similarly positioned imo but their faux pas was giving reimer way too big of a platform whereas they should have gone the sabres route of just letting okposo give a generally measured statement and then not offer lyubushkin the space to expound on his decision. but that's really just how i personally feel about it i guess lol
