alright its time for another one page rpg, so here is Gay Hockey Dragon Sex Coffee Shop Romantic Sportsball Cozy Dark Fantasy which I feel covers all my bases pretty neatly
a one page rpg as indicated above. it's an absolute wall of text, and I feel terrible and extremely guilty but I honestly don't think there's any way to translate it into this box.

my minor nitpick of the day is that there is a difference between a private jet and a chartered jet. a private jet is owned, you have to send it to vancouver to pick someone up. a chartered jet is rented, and was probably already in vancouver

It's that time again, folks! My auction is here: fth2026offerings.dreamwidth.org/75832.html It's basically the same as last year, which means I'm promising 10-20k, but just like last year, the more generous your offer, the more likely I'll cough up twice that in a fit of gratitude. Just sayin'

Someone on tumblr asked for LWJ with a ridiculous amount of bunnies in his sleeves. I think that’s the only way the bunnie could have gotten there 😂 #mdzs #wangxian

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."
Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

“We are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the ‘hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. 

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Fic title: save a horse, ride a centaur
By: defractum

Summary:

"Hi hockey gods. I mean. Dear hockey gods? This is Shane Hollander, I’m with my boyfriend, Ilya Rozanov–" Shane catches Ilya giving him an incredulous look and ploughs on determinedly, "–who I wished could be a centaur."

OR: Shane gets his Cup wish. He just didn’t think the hockey gods would think he meant a real centaur.

Hey look it's my book cover! Is it not BEAUTIFUL? @isthiseva.bsky.social did a simply incredible job capturing the characters and the vibe. Pre-orders are open now! books2read.com/citizenofeas... has all your store links.
Book cover for The Citizen of Eastport, by V B Ruth. Front cover features portraits of three characters, one facing front and the other two in profile on either side, with a menacing metallic figure behind and overhead.Image of the back cover, featuring a spilled rocks glass and a dead body in a pool of light. Blurb reads:

Vi used to be a fighter. In the underground rings she was a champion, but on the streets of Eastport, where gangs and trade powers fight for dominance, the most she could ever be is a pawn. Instead she keeps her head down, takes care of her people, and tries to avoid trouble.

Trouble comes for her anyway, when a wealthy citizen decides he wants something she has. As his net draws tighter around her, hope rests in the unlikeliest places: the provocative thief she can't keep her hands off of, and the childhood sweetheart she once betrayed.

My hot take re: Ilya's Russian background coming up a lot more than Shane's Wasian background is that you have to understand how allergic Asians are to talking about important things with words. Shane gets a great grade in repression, a thing that is both normal to want and possible to achieve.

Of the thousand moments of Ep 6 that live rent free in my mind, I keep coming back to the cinematographic choice to not show us Shane's face when he says 'Boyfriend?' It's not a fully coherent thought but there's something there about how it forces the viewer to engage, to imagine, to extrapolate
