Does anyone in the women's basketball community have a link to that press conference when Geno talked about how athletes can teach and impact their coaches?

One of my favorite things about season three was the extraordinary gentleness Alex was met with when was pulled out of SCORPIA. Mrs. Jones wasn't angry, she was distraught at the pain he was in. Smithers and Crowley were protective and reassuring, Jack and Tom and Kyra were patient and so so accepting and loving. After four episodes of watching Alex spiral into darkness, you see him pulled forcibly back into a life he was walking away from, and you can see he was CLEARLY expecting anger and retribution. But instead, he was met with understanding and grief on his behalf, and he was so confused because SCORPIA are very very good at what they do, and they got in his head. This show really did such a fantastic job of reinforcing that, while Alex did make some bad decisions, he was manipulated and lied to and beaten and those things were not his fault.

My spoiler free thoughts the last minute of Alex Rider TV
1. No f-ing way they're ending it like this. I remember what happened in the book, they can't possibly end it this way. Oh, okay. Whew. I like that. That's good.
2. Alex didn't give a definite answer... 🤞
I hope one day, in one way or another we'll set our eyes west again. It was a fun few years that did the books justice.

I became more conservative getting involved with local politics. Lots of talk, less action, fewer results. If there is a cause you care about, personally get involved.

Ray of Sunshine - romione
Ron and Hermione are slightly older now. Ron wears glasses when he needs to read the handwritten Auror reports; he hates them - the glasses not the reports. He still enjoys his occasional strategy sessions with Harry and his team of Aurors. But the glasses are a pain. He would not have gotten them at all if not for his wife who had dragged him out after months of him adjusting the distance between the morning newspaper and his eyes, squinting hard to find the right spot that made the blurry letters clear.
Hermione has 'aged' beautifully, she is still radiantly beautiful in his eyes, her maddening curls are ever so crazy despite the occasional hint of grey here and there. She doesn't need glasses; Ron reckons that her eyes have adjusted themselves magically knowing well that her reading habit wasn't going to decrease anytime soon. "Your tea is getting cold," she informs him, even without looking up from the pile of parchments in front of her. He chuckles and sets the report aside and picks up the cup, which is now steaming, thanks to the swift flick of her wand. The morning sun streams in through the window, lighting up a patch of their dining table.
"I'm thinking of taking a small trip," he suggested, watching her over the glasses. As expected, she looks up, curious and amused. "Have you asked your better half yet?" she inquires, putting aside the parchment she was reading, resting her chin on her palm, a smile glinting in her eyes which now have very faint lines at the corners. "What should I expect?" she adds, "Will he grumble madly or come along?"
He laughs aloud and watches as she joins in, shaking her head in mock exasperation. "Harry will be okay. We might have to bribe Ginny though," he chuckles.
"Are you sure?" she asks, "Or perhaps, he knows about this already?"
He shakes his head and pulls her hands in his, smiling at the girl he was still just as madly in love with as he was back when they were young and still at Hogwarts. There are a hundred thoughts coursing through his brain now. He still finds it absolutely barmy that he was blessed enough to belong to her, to have a safe life, have two beautiful children of their own and have a house that they had turned into a home. "Let's do that," she answers, looking into his eyes and Ron knows Hermione can read him as easily as she reads her books. "I'll get my schedule adjusted. We can be back before the kids arrive home for the Easter break." They sit still for a few blissful moments before the Floo chimes and Hermione gets up to check. "By the way, Harry knows, and he has already grumbled about it," he adds when she is almost at the kitchen door. She stops, looks at him, rolls her eyes and shakes her head before walking away. "Go and take care of your better half before we leave," she advises, and Ron lets out a laugh. "Yes, I will," he agrees aloud. Harry-Cockblock-Potter had never grown out of his bad-timing habit after all.

obsessed, quite frankly, with how katniss resents love, resents how deeply she loves. she was completely traumatized by her mom’s emotional withdrawal after the death of her father, and made the decision pretty much thereafter to never love someone else that way. and the fact that she goes through the trilogy absolutely refusing to call what she feels for peeta love, even when it absolutely, 1000% is, because she refuses to acknowledge that vulnerability within herself… oh it’s so good. it’s so good. the fact that recognizing love within herself is equivalent to shoving a knife in her eye is so good. i love this character

LITERATURE SERIES: J.K Rowling (Harry Potter)
“Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people you’d expect to be involved in anything strange or mysterious, because they just didn’t hold with such nonsense."

I feel like I need to come to the defense of Hermione as a wife and mother. I often see posts praising Ron as a father (completely agree with those takes) but I see very little for Hermione. As someone who has worked with kids and families for close to 10 years, I can tell you there is not a more important job in the world than raising your family and being involved. I think it would take some adjustment, bumps along the way and learning as she grew into the role everyday but I see her being a dedicated mother. To me she just seems like the type who would go to Parent Teacher Organization meetings (not positive this is a thing in the UK lol), help with homework each night, read to her baby in the womb, research whatever the kids are into so they could talk about dinosaurs, or space, or animals, overall just helping them learn and grow and introduce them to a love of learning and exploration.

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.
