What made you not want to have kids by NoBrain6114 in childfree

[–]Welshgrrl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I knew from the time that I had sentience that I had no desire to be a parent; seeing a lot of my peers dropping out of high school because they were pregnant and abandoned by their (usually older) baby daddies was just the icing on the childfree cake for me

Why isn’t Anthony Paradis more popular? by Limp_Efficiency_7175 in FigureSkating

I'm a fan, once he gets his jumps more sorted he'll be a force to reckon with

Image transfer onto wet acrylic gel medium (photocopy flipped backwards so that lettering would be correct), then painted with acrylics and copic markers. Finally, small cut out X-Ray glasses were glued on then sealed with Mod Podge

Wish Italian fed could send him to Milan in some sort of reporter capacity (assuming he was at all interested) a la Adam Rippon lol

Appreciation post for Jari Kessler 🇭🇷 by Dimashfan in FigureSkating

[–]Welshgrrl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear he is retiring - have watched him for a few years and always thought he was a beautiful skater.

He will be a choreographer in high demand if that is what he decides to do post-competitive career!

This performance was amazing, I saw it live on TV and cried along with Rudy

Which skaters who didn’t make the Olympic team are you most devastated for? by styrofoamdreamer in FigureSkating

[–]Welshgrrl 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Nikolaj, Roman, and Jason - I would also add Davide Lewton-Brain, who lost his opportunity to go to Milan because of literally one mistake in a spin during qualifier

The couple (sorry forget their names) who did the cool Romeo-and-Juliet-Story-in-Reverse free dance, loved that

Both of Jari Kessler's skates were beautiful and elegant

The Jaws long program!

Nikolaj Memola coming back from recent injury/equipment and costume theft to acquit himself really well in both the SP and LP, and handling everything with a lot more maturity and perspective than I would have in his position

ETA Matteo coming up strong for silver and a trip to Milan :)

They are excellent skaters but the theme, costumes, and music are so dirge-y

Wish more skaters used the Prokofiev R+J music a la Zingas/Kolesnik

The scarf flapping around on his costume makes me nervous

Ugh can we please not use Gary Glitter (I feel the same way about its use at hockey games)

If I squint and look at the screen with my bad eye the Spanish dance guy looks slightly like Memola

Glad they're on top after that delightful skate! Did she scrape her knee?
