In response to Slate's article on the possibility having non-heteromative team in figure skating (particularly, ice dance and pairs), Oniceperspective shared a glimpse of Gabriella Papadakis (FRA) and Madison Hubbell (USA) working on their same-sex program. You can see how they switch the leading figure between them.
Yuri on Ice was such a life changing anime, especially to have experienced in real time waiting for those episodes to drop every week. It was an open acknowledgment and love letter to queerness, to valuing and creating art, to loving yourself and loving those around you and it’s no surprise that it had such a large impact on those who watched it. Not to mention how stunning it was to be presented with an open letter to queer love during a time where same sex marriage and gender equality was still a very hot and controversial topic. It’s, in its own way, nestled itself into history.
It may not be in the way we all expected or hoped, but see you next level.
Damian, carrying a lead pipe: Breaking legs. Todd told me it’s traditional.
Dick: JASON!!!???
Jason: I told the brat it was traditional for wishing good luck in a play, not something you do. Don’t blame me for him not getting something that simple.
Damian: Don’t be a fool Todd, I clearly understood what you meant. However, the lead went to that fool Chris and I will not be a mere understudy.
