something I do find interesting, upon some ACOTAR re-reading is how very othered both Elain & Azriel feel in their own lives. He doesn’t identify with the Illyrian heritage & she doesn’t with her new fae life/self. Obviously that could be connected w/ Lucien’s estrangement but🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m truly not fully seated in either camp but I do think it’s rather interesting that “the female mate offering food” is a big thing in ACOTAR and Elain canonically bakes which draws Azriel in. Idk it just feels like something very simple that threads them together

I specifically wanted to check leaks so I could know who to cheer for and I feel absolutely no closer to knowing but I hate a ship war and am less excited about this book than I was before

VALIDATION AND VINDICATION for all the haters in my comments. Bless you sir for having the ATs backs

“Some weirdo” and it’s a staff member who is at every practice and game and lift 🤦🏻‍♀️ who helps with rehab and recovery and shows up before and leaves after the players

seeing someone else post in the same vein as me but they’re a dude and thus not getting hate…I just love the internet

YES. YES. YES!!!!! You’re literally the best 🫶🏻 none of them understand anything and don’t deserve to even watch these games

keeping it out of the post from hell but @ashleykdavis ily, you get it, thank you

Well. This has been a super fun exposure into the misogyny of internet idiots. My several bowl rings and conference championships will keep me warm while you cling to teams you were never part of 😘

This game of college football that misogynists love doesn’t happen without the medical team. Athletic training has become dominated by women who are smart, hard-working, knowledgeable, and earned their position. If you don’t like that & want them gone…find another sport to watch

The athletic trainer at the head, holding c-spine, is very likely calling her out to initiate protocol. She takes the spot at his opposite shoulder as you would to lift onto the board. This. Is. An. Emergent. Situation. That athlete should learn to manage his emotions and backoff

To all the fuck ass men who have never touched a college football field…1. I worked division CFB for almost a decade, 2. You don’t send the full AT staff for every injury, 3. No one outside of medical should be near a possible c-spine. That player is a hazard

Anyone defending with “she put hands on him first”, “that’s his teammate”, “it’s a scary situation” can fuck right off. That woman is a health care professional trying to enact an emergency protocol for player safety. That athlete should’ve been OFF THE FIELD and out of the way

There’s something very “Delicate”-coded about Patient Zero. Like the darker side of that invisibility. The consequence of being ignored and pretending it’s a good thing. Idk. Something about it just felt like the dark reflection

Initial song impressions/thoughts: 1. Patient Zero: GET. HIS. ASS. YES HEALED GIRL LET IT OUT 2. Cleveland!: omg she’s so in love and this is so CUTE!And boppy! 3. Pink Clouding: “he crossed my heart I hoped to die” is a BAR. Beat to die for 4. Babylon: oh sweet nostalgia feels

This. Isn’t. Acceptable. You’re in Arizona in the middle of summer and you don’t have a cold plunge??? Submersion is best practice until EMS arrives. An ice pack??? Squirting water??? On a collapsed athlete??????

super fun that my property management company won’t let me put up an inclusive Pride sign for Boise Pride but let the other tenant keep religious paraphernalia up all December long… love that selective freedom of speech #Boise

Rushing the field after beating a MAC team you were 20+ point favorites over is embarrassing. Especially when that last play shouldn’t have happened. I hope my buckeyes curbstomp these losers in November
