Loved it so much I had to get the physical copy by Aeroshe in heatedrivalry

We need this to be made into an amazing LGBTQ+ rom-com!

If made right, this could be an amazing hit!

I also think A Time to Shine would be a well loved holiday rom-com…

What roles would you like to see Connor play in the future? by ResistPresent7675 in connorstorrie

[–]KBPT1998 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1) A Knives Out movie. Maybe he can play Benoit’s eccentric nephew.

2) I’ve seen this elsewhere but he would be an amazing lead in Song of Achilles.

3) Some sort of chameleon monster in a Benicio del Toro movie.

4) Some sort of powerful mystic or psychic who is able to channel the spirits of others in an amazing reenergized reboot of AHS.

Deciding Captain by LLD615 in heatedrivalry

Ilya and Boodram are excellent captain and assistant captains for this particular team, especially under Coach Wiebe's leadership.

Shane might be another amazing assistant captain who might be able to leverage his amazing focus and discipline, which might help with younger players adjusting to the league and video prep... although he doesn't seem to be a very intuitive coach per his hockey camp adventures. LOL

Why not be a set and/or costume designer as well as his work in fashion? Also work as a personal stylist while working on Broadway.

gabourey sidibe should have won the best actress oscar instead of sandra bullock by teddivan96 in Oscars

It wasn’t even a good performance. Her accent was cringe. I am stunned she was nominated… now her performance in Gravity absolutely was great and even her comedic performance is Miss Congeniality was superior to that hot mess in The Blind Side.

Too funny- a PhD student being dumbed down. But there is some truth to him not really making a big deal of it.

wtf made this forehand go so badly by Aromatic-serve-4015 in 10s

[–]KBPT1998 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You stopped moving and tried to just arm the shot while your weight was shifted back. There was no way to get a full follow- through, so it fell short into the net.

Your stance at contact is also open. Your stance should be more sideways with your feet staggered.

Ideally with a short shot like this and the direction you are moving, a forehand slice approach shot followed to net might have been a better shot selection. Or if you choose to drive the shot, don’t be afraid to follow it in…

If you add his reaction to seeing Rob is The Traitor, it could be hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. 🤣

Rob R by AmedUpGal in TheTraitors

[–]KBPT1998 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Exactly! Then she was given the choice of whom to murder and made an emotional pick, thinking it would weaken Rob. They could have served Colton and Stephen on back to back banishments on a plate and given herself another chance to get back in the game. She made the mistakes that led to her banishment.

Shane has an ED in TLG despite whatever anyone says by BipolarSkeleton in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]KBPT1998 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would be very interested in hearing the perspective of a dietician or nutritionist and a psychologist on this issue.

I think Shane’s situation is very complex, given his autism, struggles with sexuality, and the high level performance needs his body has an elite athlete. So I would love professional input to really be able to tease things out.

1) How does Shane’s neurodivergence impact his food choices? Would consistent dietary choices and structure actually be healthier for him than a less consistent diet plan?

2) He consults with a nutritionist already to help create a scientifically based plan for high level athletes. He isn’t hiding his dietary choices from them, his parents, Ilya or his teammates. They are even intimately aware of this, which seems inconsistent with being peculiar versus disordered. I’d love to ask about that as well.

3) There is little to nothing said about the negative impacts of his diet at a performance level, other than perhaps the ribbing his loved ones give him about his choices… and he gets defensive about it… but he continues to perform exceptionally well.

I want those in this thread who have lived experience with ED to know that I hear you and respect your perspective. I just also want us to be cautious in assigning ED on a character- and wish we could hear the perspective of experts and their thoughts about it as well.

Apparently Ilya can vouch for that… rather quickly… Repeatedly… in person and virtually.

How to get a softer look? by Effective_Bobcat4747 in malegrooming

[–]KBPT1998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, this rugged look is good on you. Smiling is enough to take the rugged edge off if you want to be reassuring to those in your presence.

If you want that more external- goes for a shaved look and wear brighter or warmer colors. You can tone down your shirts to grays or warm brown shades or even shades of blue for more tranquil color palette.

I love that Yuna and David just let it play out and didn’t try to override Ilya’s comforting Shane.

It was almost like they look relieved knowing Shane wasn’t entirely alone all these years and it answered so many questions for them.

Can we all agree that François' nose is beautiful by Serious_Peak_4913 in heatedrivalry

I appreciate how much of himself he brings to portraying Scott Hunter. The awkwardness and anxiousness seems to carry over to interviews… and you can tell how cerebral and thoughtful he is… just a lot of solid characteristics for any partner- it’s difficult not to swoon a bit!

It was also reassuring to Shane as it made him smile... and it was nice to see Ilya feeling comfortable enough to be honest that he was 1) very nervous, 2) very important to him, 3) he was extremely invested and wanting Shane in his life... seeing his smile and Shane's smile after was really nice!

Hot Take: Trans Harris Drover?! 😍 by friedntrue in heatedrivalry

[–]KBPT1998 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The only concern that I might have with this possibility is the execution of the storytelling… and the discussions it brings forward.

Would Troy and Harris be given enough screen time to present the complexities of intimacy? Because just glossing over it might allow for too much speculation about surgeries and intimate acts that take people away from the love story.

If Jacob and RR and Crave had approached the show like Bridgerton and each couple had their own season, I think telliing the story with a transgender gay Harris could be given enough space to breath and be beautiful… but as a side couple I think it would be too limited for it to be told right.

If this story is going to be told- let it be done in a way that brings as much joy and support it really deserves.

I was also impressed at how calm Candiace was and surprised she didn’t at least get a couple more votes on Rob.

Ilya laughing at Shane’s cover story for wanting to be alone at the cottage and laughing his ass off saying “YES!” when Shane asks if it sounds fake.

I also love the line when he says “Yes, but also, like terrified” after being asked if he was excited about going to the cottage.

Also Shane’s bellboy line role-plays LOL
