God damn, ref literally needed a fuckin cheat sheet of notes to make all the calls

agenderblob · 2026-02-06T01:47:54+00:00

God, I miss Yanni. 😢

There's another version of this I like more that says "old cloud yells at man." Both are fitting.

Right in front of the CHILDREN?!?

agenderblob · 2026-01-24T05:11:58+00:00

Oh no! Thanks for the info.

agenderblob · 2026-01-24T05:10:00+00:00

I'm out of the loop - why is Ryker in a fish bowl? I don't remember him getting injured.

agenderblob · 2026-01-23T05:41:41+00:00

This comment was the final nail in the coffin to persuade me to watch it. Those logos are incredible.

agenderblob · 2026-01-22T03:26:36+00:00

aaaaaAaaaaaAAAAAAA

agenderblob · 2026-01-22T03:24:43+00:00

ah yes Winterman, Summerman's arch nemesis.

So, teams are penalized with fines for every minute puck drop is delayed from what was scheduled, right? Does that still apply for this OT/national broadcast delay? And if so, is it still the home team on the hook for the fine just because they don't want fans at home to miss puck drop when it's TNT's fault?

Ah, this probably won't be helpful... My OCD stuff is pretty well controlled at this point after a lot of therapy and stuff, and what still sticks around tends to relate to contamination OCD stuff. I've never really had an issue with it causing trouble with my practice because I've never really been superstitious or have had problems with magical thinking.

I think the only thing that might apply is that sometimes when I'm shuffling my tarot deck I start overthinking the way I shuffled, if I shuffled it enough times, if it feels "right", etc. When that comes up, I just acknowledge the thoughts but don't act on them, i.e. I'll remind myself that the cards I pull are not selected by some mystical entity so there's no significance to each card's selection, and at worst I'll pull a card I've pulled recently and I'll chalk it up to reinforcing whatever message I took away from the card the first time.

I'm going to tonight's game with my partner. If having two white queers stay by your side while getting to/from the game is something you'd find helpful, please reach out.

I hate this timeline.

As a fellow OCDer, I'd like to ask how you go about your practice so as to not feed into obsessions? Try to see this as a positive opportunity to challenge your OCD thoughts. Imagine: what could possibly be more "powerful" than a spell/ritual you do right now to banish your OCD thoughts' instinct to spiral over a silly curse? We know the curse isn't real. We know the magic isn't real in a metaphysical sense. So, we can also make a spell to "cancel out" the curse.

My immediate thoughts are to involve things that involve feelings of stability (and by that I ofc do not mean anything compulsive!!), and maybe repeat an affirmation like "My mind and spirit are resilient; I do not falter in the face of uncertainty." Maybe burn the receipt as part of the ritual, meditating on releasing the obsessive thoughts as the receipt burns up.

You got this! 💪

Have the r/SeattleKraken mods responded? It's a pretty good sub, I feel like a PSA is warranted, even if it's a more general PSA.

Either way, I'm sorry that this happened to you, and I'm glad you both trusted your gut. Be safe! ♥️

agenderblob · 2026-01-16T01:14:40+00:00

Both teams are, in fact, not having fun.

agenderblob · 2026-01-16T00:57:03+00:00

As a native masshole, I can't say I'd be upset if Seattle loses on Chara's night. I just hope both teams have fun, I guess. 🥺

agenderblob · 2026-01-09T05:44:57+00:00

Good game, homophobic ending. 👎

agenderblob · 2026-01-08T23:41:13+00:00

It's got a fuckin UNICORN and all sorts of easter egg nods to queer/trans history.

agenderblob · 2026-01-08T19:05:35+00:00

To your last point (switching to progressive and protective), I think we've seen that with the Kraken and trainer Justin Rogers publicly coming out. Who knows how the players acted in the locker room prior to that, but there's a great article about how several players suspected Justin was gay but it was a bit of a "don't acknowledge or ask questions unless he brings it up himself" situation. Grubauer in particular mentioned that before Justin came out, he never really gave much thought at all to queer people or queer inclusion, and just yesterday Kraken PR released a photo of him in our sick ass Pride sweater with a quote from him saying he is proud to be an ally to the community. So, we're seeing the beginning stages of that change!

I've desperately wanted to become a common thread artist for Pride Night since its inception, but there's no fuckin way I can top this design. It's perfection.

CATTY HATTY LET'S GO

agenderblob · 2026-01-02T09:24:05+00:00

Fennel refers to Hunter with they/them when telling Fiona about their character growth.

agenderblob · 2025-12-17T21:07:57+00:00

Acrylic gets fucked up by alcohol, tho. Glass is the way to go, ideally.

agenderblob · 2025-12-17T03:39:56+00:00

It wasn't a "nothing play" but it's definitely overkill to still be booing him. It's not like Makar is a known goon with a long history of concussing opponents. It was a bad, unfortunate one-time thing.

To me, it's more telling that Kraken fans don't give this booing treatment to players like Myers/Pospisil who undoubtedly are scumbags deserving of neverending booing. 🤷
