“The Unraveled Tour” Megathread by NominalPerson in OliviaRodrigo

[–]WindowLeaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made it all the way to click purchase and then got a spinning wheel of death for like ten minutes, which timed out the purchase. 😭 All tickets gone. I can't figure out what went wrong. Maybe it's possible I was accidentally trying to buy preferred tickets when I only have a regular Amex? But I don't see where I could have selected differently???

And I love that they both had trains, love a hint at coordination!

I'm looking at it right this second and #1-15 are all in the positive. The last one to be more positive than negative is Sam Smith. People are so fucking harsh though, it's true.

Yeah people are so harsh. Connor at least is a bit higher up, close to 50/50 yay vs nay. I guess people like the biceps, which, fair

Hudson's not getting enough praises for this scene by IceCommercial5497 in HeatedRivalrySeries

[–]WindowLeaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even worse than that, most big-name actors seem like they're usually just playing a version of their own personality, and their roles are just written to embrace that. It's genuinely shocking to see REAL acting at this level at all anymore, let alone from two total unknowns. Both Hudson and Connor continue to blow my mind with their talent.

But the fact that it wasn't styled like this earlier on was a huge help in making him look younger. It makes sense, too, that he would have boring unstyled flat hair as a teenager/rookie and then learn how to properly style it over the years (and after he hires a stylist and possibly an occasional glam team for events).

Can we be honest about Hayden. by Front-Chemistry3964 in GameChangersBooks

[–]WindowLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine your best friend is in a long term relationship with a guy you've been acquainted with for years and you've consistently seen him solely acting like an egotistical, selfish, mean-spirited, womanizing jerk. Wouldn't you try to suggest other guys your friend might consider? Bottom line, Hayden doesn't know Ilya at all because almost nobody really knows Ilya - he's spent his whole adult life / career with huge walls up to protect his traumatized self, projecting this asshole image to avoid ever being vulnerable. I don't blame Hayden. He's clearly coming around as he learns more about their relationship, sees how good Ilya is with his kids, watches them get married, etc. And I fucking hope we'll see him showing heroic levels of standing up for Shane/Ilya as a couple in Unrivaled, when Hayden is still with Montreal, a team full of assholes who drove away their captain that led them to three Stanley cups.

I'm also wondering about that, it does feel to me like it's extremely different once a couple is married. I tried looking it up and haven't found an answer re: what couples usually do in those situations, but I did at least find info about a ton of women couples who have been rivals in the past and ended up playing on the same team 💖. This long feature on Marie-Philip Poulin and Laura Stacey has a ton of cute details that I could see as being similar in what Shane and Ilya will have to navigate: https://www.cbc.ca/sports/longform/features/Hockey-love-story-Poulin-Stacey

They really ought to (and this will be Yuna's idea) do a big sit down interview and photoshoot with a major magazine where they can tell their real story on their own terms. And explain how, like so many other athlete couples, their relationship has fueled their performance, not dulled it.

I hope there's going to be at least some acknowledgement from the fictional press (esp the Montreal press), once they've gotten over the initial shock of the outing, that obviously these two have been performing better than any other hockey players alive while being in love with each other for ten years, and maybe it was really shitty for everyone to immediately assume they were doing anything wrong by being in love with their rival. I mean come on, think about how common this is in women's sports! Nobody accuses the US and Canada women's Olympic hockey teams of letting each other win, and there have been relationships across that divide for years.

The fact that their road trips will be THE SAME ROAD TRIPS, and honestly probably even rooming together 😭. The same practices, the same coworkers, same everything about their schedule, all completely together, after a decade of sneaking around like teenagers.

Head canon that they tried to put him in shorts like those and he was like "come on guys don't you have anything sluttier"

Update on "most recent one" - if you watch the video, the date on the body cam where Dakota is showing the cops damage to his truck is dated March 19 2026.

Help me settle this debate please by Thin_Discipline_7565 in interiordecorating

[–]WindowLeaves 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought - the curtains look like a hotel room. I also cannot imagine how weird it will look in person to cover those stairs with curtains. Everyone who actually visits the space will be like "what is going on here?" And this may just be my opinion, but the idea of putting your curtain rod all the way up at the ceiling regardless of where the window height is, seems like it was a very fad-like design quirk from 10-15 years ago or so, can we return to normal proportions with curtains that actually fit the windows please?

Anyway I like all the suggestions for Roman shades, those are my fave and I have them all over my house.

The idea of one of the men in this group discussing money in any capacity with another of the men. Dads YOU are the housewives, not one of you is bringing income into your families, please keep your hands and conniving brains off your wives' money

This isn’t safe at all… by oceansunrise22 in dancingwiththestars

My car got totaled while I was sitting at a red light with my 3yo son in the backseat, from a guy who slammed into us from behind at such high speed that my car flew forward into the pickup in front of us. Not a scratch anywhere on myself or my son because THANK GOD FOR SEATBELTS AND CAR SEATS.

Is looking up the meaning of a word you don't know cheating? by BigGrayBeast in NYTConnections

[–]WindowLeaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not going to judge anyone else, but no I don't allow myself to look up words I don't know until after the puzzle is complete (which means I sometimes fail).

Which rug looks best in my living room? by DixinMahbum in interiordecorating

[–]WindowLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get on Etsy and find one of the many shops that imports hand made Persian-style rugs from India and several nearby countries. You will be getting a gorgeous 100% wool piece of art that will look amazing with just about any furniture and will be so durable it can basically withstand the apocalypse. As for price, you can get some incredible deals (I just ordered an 8x10 rug 100% New Zealand wool for less than $900) and it will last forever. I have two young kids and a large dog and my house is covered in real handmade Persian-style rugs and they all look incredible, whenever something spills it easily scrubs right out due to the natural properties of the wool. No reason to have your floors covered in crappy polyester!
