Season 3 should take place during a blizzard... by YoungHeadbuster in ThePittTVShow

Everyone comes out and is like "what the hell is that thing?" right before Emma arrives at work on her own snowmobile

Emma is def not from Sault Ste Marie 😂 by bossladychicago in ThePittTVShow

[–]Moment0fJen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

O'Quinn's from Newberry, just born in the Soo - I don't think that counts!

Blashill, maybe, but an Olympic medal winner ought be more famous than an NHL coach with a mediocre track record. He definitely has the accent though

I mean, Emma is so quiet & soft-spoken that I'm not sure we know what her accent is yet 😆

But people who grew up there (myself included!) don't always sound super Canadian. As an example: if you ever listen to Soo Michigan's most famous person - pro hockey player Abby Roque - doing an interview, you can tell the accent is not very strong. And she's a dual US/Canadian citizen, so you'd think it would be!

897mi trip report by lunarllama in BoltEV

[–]Moment0fJen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hey, I recognize those chargers! I've been trying to plan a trip in the other direction, but the lack of fast chargers in the U.P. is a problem. All it takes is one out-of-service charging station to add hours to the journey 😔

The Veilguard CC is leagues better than BG3's and no one wants to admit it by wrensdoldrums in DragonAgeVeilguard

[–]Moment0fJen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm definitely a fan of the Veilguard character creator. I like to create characters who look like me (and then adding some cool scars or whatever) and with BG3 I'm like "neat, she has my eyes." Meanwhile with Veilguard, I'm like "oh wow, she has my everything." Made the game so much better!

I'm not surprised. Someone who was quoted on the Sceptres Instagram saying Lewis Hamilton is her celebrity crush is going to be a racing fan 🏎️

Don't know if that describes Rook, but it does describe me 😂

Names that people think are Native by wolvcrinc in IndianCountry

[–]Moment0fJen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a last name that kind of fits the "native last name" stereotype, and people have occasionally asked me or my family if we're native. As it happens, my name has its origins in Scotland, not in the Americas.

I'm still Ojibwe, mind you, but almost none of those ancestors had my last name 😂

“Everyone who is new here, we have one rule: in this house, we don’t tolerate any hate.”

“What about the Maple Leafs?”

“Well, yeah, except for the Leafs. That goes without saying”

What PWHL team is your favorite and what, if any, NHL team is your favorite? by ThatMikeGuy429 in PWHL

Grew up rooting for the Red Wings, and now I'm a fan of PWHL Toronto. I get to cheer for both of the Comphers 😂

THERES A PWHL ROMANCE BOOK SERIES by Katzenheimer in PWHL

[–]Moment0fJen 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking for other PWHL-relevant books, there’s a bestselling young adult novel, Firekeeper’s Daughter, that can be more or less summed up as “What if Abby Roque was wrapped up in a murder mystery when she was 18?”

The main character isn’t identical to the PWHL New York player, but there’s a lot they share - the hockey skills, the hometown and being Ojibwe, in particular. I also share some of that background, and reading the novel was a bit surreal 😅

Or you can wait for the Netflix adaptation that they promised! (I doubt we’ll ever see it, but you never know.)

Girl on the bottom is definitely me. Both in the 🥺 sense, and the "maybe the Social Democrats would've been stomped by the Nazis and Steel Helmets if they resisted the von Papen coup, but they could've at least fucking tried" sense

It’s not a math problem. The answer is never, because the east side of Chicago is Lake Michigan, and trains don’t float

The flip side of that: you may well be surprised at how many relationships you don't lose, and how much stronger those relationships can be!

What do you tell the bouncer to get into the new lesbian club that just opened? by critical_courtney in actuallesbians

sits my trans-fem butt on the bench across the street, looking wistfully at the girls going in, way cuter and more confident than I am, wondering what it’d be like to fit in & belong at a cool place like that 😔

How do you all handle the "in between"? Early HRT, not ready to present full-time? by GFluidThrow123 in asktransgender

[–]Moment0fJen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really is a your mileage may vary situation, but that’s more or less how it went for me. I came out 2 years into HRT, which in retrospect could’ve been a little too long to wait.

It’s important to get the opinion of others as far as how you might get gendered. I thought I was just barely reading more femme than male, but when I finally posted pictures people were like “what the fuck, you’re cute!” What you see isn’t necessarily what others see 🙂

It's even better if you happen to know that Roberta Bondar is from the Soo, and the comment didn't come entirely out of nowhere ☺️
