Well at least Mittlestadt is a Center and has good vibes

#THIS IS ALL HAPPENING SO FAST #avs lb #hockey #colorado avalanche #though I'll be honest I'd rather they traded Bo than Sammy #sorry Bo love you but you take too many penalties #have fun with EJ <3 #he's starting a home for abandoned Avs in Buffalo

#the real question is can i go to church on less than 5 hours of sleep and still function lol #i unlocked my instagram bc church wouldn't stop tagging me to direct people to me for stuff but that meant i had to delete a bunch of pho #tos AND rewrite a bunch of captions for photos i didn't WANT to delete bc i was too mean to random sharks prospects #which is fine if it is u know the anonymity of tumblr but not public instagram where my church won't stop FULL NAMING AND TAGGING ME #''anonymity of tumblr'' i doxx myself on here like 80 times a day in front of more people than i went to college with #anyway my point is i was going through deleting all evidence of politics pens fandom and legal documents and i was like damn #my attitude towards my team SUCKS. i gotta be way less of a hater!!! #what did my prospects ever do wrong besides everything NOTHING. the system is BROKEN. i am sorry i will be so much nicer guys :( #also if u really want to be humbled. scrolling back to 2012 on your instagram and re-experiencing senior year of college. BAD #i've deleted i think everything that would reasonably get our nonprofit status pulled but what a horrific journey it was #two full hockey intermission periods of deleting shit plus another hour at home doing several more passes and then rewriting captions #so that some poor 21 year old prospect randomly searching their name doesn't see me full ass call their teammate cringe #their teammate IS cringe. but i love him. but the nuances are lost on instagram people don't understand these things they take everything #at face value #don't know why i just assigned shakir mukhamadullin they/them pronouns #i think i need to go lie in bed with a blanket over my head until i suffocate #this ALWAYS happens i get too hype about mackenzie blackwood and start listening to selena gomez and then it's like almost 3am and i'm just #fresno oilers.txt #oh and. a friend sent me screenshots of the girl she's been flirting with on a dating app and they are SOOOOO cute #i hope they make a good run of it i really do bc it was SO cute. living vicariously through episcopalian lesbians as one does #but then i was trying to figure out how to edit my dating app profile to dissuade chasers but still honeytrap guys who are tall enough #or athletic enough to pick the tangerines at the top of the tangerine tree. bc i couldn't reach this week #but there were still like god maybe 150 tangerines on the tree. i was like this could be feeding people but i'm TOO SHORT #and my life will be like this. FOREVER #icb the future of this garden is so psychologically burdensome that i'm having to build it into a dating app profile lol #well now that i'd treated this entire tag set as twitter for and hour and a half #time to go try to lie in bed and stare at the ceiling and then wake up in [checks notes] four hours

i will never get tired of seeing frosty evade w a sick dangle and hearing the crowd go ‘oooh’

#it happens quite regularly !! #sometimes i think he gets too fancy w it and i just want him to shoot #but he’s so skilled it’s so sick to watch #and when he makes a skilled play that ends in a goal ?? oh baby forget about it #he’s so good at hockey #flyers lb #morgan frost

kraken fursonas

this is NOT a list of what animals i think they would be!!

matty b - wolf. he has at least two sonas because furries got him real young, but his public sona is a pretty classic grey wolf - a pack animal, a little traditional, but well-loved and hard to deny. it's a little manufactured but it's not inauthentic.

ryan donato - coyote. essentially a dog with all the lovable qualities, but undeniably feral.

jordan eberle - lion. ebs did not put a lot of thought into his sona before he picked the king of the jungle and felt like hot shit until everyone made fun of what a cliche choice it was.

geekie - possum. it's kind of an ironic choice because he's such a hipster, but decided that a possum would be down to earth and kind of misunderstood.

yanni - weasel. on one hand he's always involved, gets himself into whatever he wants, has fun when it ends in a little scrap. on the other he likes that they're cute and that people who have weasels as pets are always obsessed with them.

canner - cattle dog. i had to think pretty hard about this one - originally wasn't going to go with a dog but ultimately had to admit that there is no other animal canner would choose. and he'd go with something smart and hard-working, but not something glamorous like a border collie.

daniel sprong - otter. i had decided this before i fell down a rabbit hole into what he was like before this year, and i love when i'm right. someone as sillygoofy and sincere as he is absolutely put the thought into it to come up with a sona off the beaten path. he likes those pictures of otters holding hands.

tanev - hyena. this just feels very natural to me, i almost can't explain it. they're energetic, yappy, ready to get down in the dirt and fight but having a blast the whole time.

tolvy - rat. there are multiple kinds of rat sonas and tolvy's is smart and persistent, adaptable, a little underrated. really loving under the right conditions. in most art his sona is wearing a tasteful sweatervest.

wenny - deer. it has to be something elegant, common but with a mythical quality. gentle but willing to fight. stubborn. i think there were a lot of good options for wenny and really thought for a while that he might be a bird - could still be convinced - but deer felt sturdier.

borgy - raccoon. goofy little trash boy!! cute af, fun, voted "least likely to keep is new years resolution" when he said he wanted to eat his vegetables. thieving babygirl and he knows it.

vince dunn - spider monkey. also has multiple fursonas because he's an eboy, but that's his main sona. it came to me in a vision that it was going to be a monkey and spider monkeys are the cutest, which is vital. it's a little freaky and a little sexual, which is also vital.

larsson - jaguar. listen, much like with canner, this was HARD. with the nickname big cat i had to really consider whether HE would consider himself a one or if it was something being thrust upon him. i had to study his feelings about the nickname but ultimately it became clear that his sona is definitely a big cat, just not one you'd immediately suspect.

#how the fuck do you make bullet lists on tumblr what happened to the text editor #i spent too long researching this (scrolling thru my furry twitter) #furry twitter is not where i'm tryna be right now #i may make a separate post of blorbo fursonas but it'd take longer to make and i'm not sure how invested i am #if this posts twice no it didn't #hockey things #home team

your play by play literally has me in tears. this is hockey radio to ME

voice reveal but its me just SCREAMING in outrage with random moments of going ‘god i want my cum to get stuck in that ugly ass rustache’ and chanting geno's name with lust

#i wont be allowed to ever hockey radio because i roll my Rs too much and go ‘THATS FUCKING BULLSHIT’ at anything i disagree with #and im so annoying watching hockey because i PACE my entire trailer and then you hear LOUD clanking on my keyboard when something happens #i know i can be so obnoxious in my spamming and it can be annoying so this is so sweet to hear thank you !!!!!! <3333 #🏒

[eyes-above--the-waves]

Having a mid-season trade is such a baffling concept to me. Like, you have all these guys who have been vibing and playing together for months (or years, depending on how long they've been there) and then it's just...BOOM! Uproot your life, your friends, your country, and start over with a bunch of dudes you were previously trying to beat. And it happens immediately?!? They don't even get a few weeks to adjust. How do you even mentally make that shift?

Off-season trades make sense to me, but February trades do not.

#trying not to be too devastated over the trade because things happen but SO sad for Sandy especially #do the players even get any say in this? do they get a heads up its in the works? it cant just be sprung on them without warning can it? #that just seems cruel #toronto maple leafs #hockey #nhl

If Mears and Errey are the dads of the pens lb crew, what does that make Getzoff and Borque? Our fun uncles?

#anne watches hockey #the urge to make this a poll was strong but I don’t have multiple options #pens lb #I love the radio crew #they always have me when i can’t sit down and watch #they’re better at describing the actual play as it’s happening — which makes sense they’re on the radio #which is helpful since the adhd doesn’t always like looking at things #bob and mearsy #are great too I love them lots #but #getzy and borquey #have got me
