I think she's referring to the many outright misogynistic things NL has said about her in the past, combined w/ he was addressing her in this email like he saw her as an insolent schoolchild; while anyone can be the target of that sort of infantilization, it disproportionately targets women

Panda was a much needed palate cleanser after that

I hope the Olympics puts Niina's Cell Block Tango on YouTube, because the three victims slayed the deaths almost as hard as she slayed the program

Ami Nakai continues to be an absolute ray of sunshine, and her gala music is much better than that unsalted-chicken-breast-energy cover of What a Wonderful World she used in the free (thank goodness) #milanocortina2026 #figureskating
