Still not off that high of seeing Knight and Edwards pulling Team USA back from the abyss. 🥳😵💫

I’m still trying to shed all that tension from watching that mixed doubles curling final. Pretty sure my co-workers were amused by my non-verbal reactions to the shots that final end. 😅

Tuned into the halftime show. Holy hell that was amazing.
All of the performance design & tech classes this week need to be doing a deep dive on that. Just the way you can create narrative & meaning alongside & in collab with the music & dance

BREAKING. Enormous news in the hockey romance world...
I am thrilled to announce that CHECK, PLEASE!: YEAR FIVE, a brand new volume of Check, Please! will be serialized in 2026. #omgcp 🏒🥧💕

Time for some Falcon hockey. Playing against some Buckeyes from Columbus.
This song was utterly perfect for that scene. Goosebumps.
And I love that ‘Heated Rivalry’ brought us back to one of my favorite albums of the ‘00s (“Apologies to the Queen Mary” by Wolf Parade).

Strap blades to the players’ feet, shrink the field & goals, and put it on ice. Then we’ll talk.

The Minnesota Frost and Ottawa Charge players shake hands after the PWHL Takeover Tour game at Allstate Arena in Chicago.
Alas, the Frost fall in OT to the Charge. Gwyneth Philip’s stopped 41 of 43(!) shots to stymie Minnesota.
Great time, already looking forward to the next Tour game in March!

Some damn good seats!

His partner, driving the car, makes her presence known by making a ‘V’ sign with her right hand. Her nails look fantastic, a gloss black void only broken by a thin vertical strip of metallic glitter.
On our way to the PWHL Takeover Tour game in Chicago!
Say it with me: Nobody knows what goalie interference is in the NHL, least of all the refs and the league war room.
It was a night that seemed utterly surreal.
I’ve been a fan of the Frost and individual players (Hilary Knight, Aerin Frankel). I’m digging the Torrent this season, too.
The caveat is always, “until Chicago gets a team.” 😁
YES PLEASE
Because they wanted to announce the next expansion – and the new playable class – at the Game Awards right now.
You will be visited by three spirits
A Negroni, sublime in its beauty & simplicity. It rests upon a stone bar, in front of a tablet that is transmitting hockey to any bar patron who stops to watch.
Any taste of vermouth would be really sublime!
(Says the person with a Negroni in front of him.)
This is why I support freedom of expression.
Appropriately, it is the chaos of a system that supports free speech that gives rise to the grand process of democratic self-governance and the ideally upward arc of human progress and flourishing.
Yesterday a Stoppard play, today a tweet.
Final day to back the Kickstarter for Mystic Curling Club!
Do you want dice-curling action on your table? With cool witches and cute familiars casting spells to make your shots better? I think the answer is yes!

Oh hai, PAX.
The first stop in Philadelphia, after unpacking and getting my bearings: Reading Terminal Market. Naturally.
Luckily, I hopped on a few stops earlier, so I’m one of the lucky sardines. So the journey to PAX U begins.
That may have been the loudest & most frustrated reaction I’ve seen anyone have to a full L train.
