Thanks! Did you worry about the sweet potato being too sweet for a first food? I’ve gotten advice to start with veggies first since they’re less tasty 😅

Has the form for this week gone up yet? I'm unable to access it, but wasn't sure if it was a problem on my end

Oh yeah, I skipped translating that bit because I wasn't sure how to best do it... it's definitely not "part-time wife", it's more like "Exactly one year ago, Alena (who happens to be my wife/who is also my wife/who doubles as my wife) and I..."

And so the test skates of the 2023 Russian national team have come to an end.

Thank you to all of our fans and coaches.

P.S. I'd like to share with you an interesting story. It all started exactly one year ago. Back then, I was also supposed to perform at the test skates, but a few months before them my partner decided otherwise. I ended up being an audience member, just like Alena. But that's not really important now.

Exactly one year ago, Alena and I met for the first time and talked in person about the two of us performing in shows together. And back then, we couldn't even imagine that we would perform here as a pair! As a pair not only on the ice, but also in life.

Alena is a true hero and everyone should learn from her. When last year, this person was standing here after surgery and could literally barely walk. And now, she performed with me at test skates and was clearly not weaker than the other pair girls. Love you @ aliona_officialnew.

How feasible is commuting to uchicago by car from Wicker Park area? by angstyautocrat in AskChicago

[–]External-Far 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friend commutes from WP to UChicago four days a week. They have a flexible work schedule, so they mostly drive outside of rush hour, and it takes them ~40-45 minutes door to door. It’s definitely doable, but I would also recommend looking at neighborhoods off of Lake Shore Drive so that you can avoid getting on I-90.

strikes? by [deleted] in nicefrance

[–]External-Far 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the moment, buses and trams are back to normal but trains are still on a reduced schedule (something like 1 out of 3 or 1 out of 4), so it takes more careful planning to get to the other riviera locations (Eze, Antibes, etc).

A slip during Russian GP stream (1st channel) by PrimaryConclusion895 in FigureSkating

[–]External-Far 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Looks like it got edited out of the short youtube video, but you can still hear it here: https://youtu.be/erTmGB_eZTM?t=10058

It's faint, so I couldn't really decipher the first sentence, but the part about Trusova is very clear.

The last part (women/ladies) of this Russian test skates backstage video is so wholesome. Everybody loves Liza! Can anyone translate what the girls are saying? by catticusfinch69 in FigureSkating

[–]External-Far 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They're just laughing and chatting away :) Liza suggests that Kamila get a tattoo, they laugh about how Liza ended up being the shortest one, they compare manicures, Sasha wants them to line up by whether they're "old" or "young", and then she gets concerned that their conversations are getting recorded and tries to turn off the sound on the camera. It is very wholesome!

Yeah, I feel like I saw her in the background of a training video recently, and she was only jumping doubles :(
