that scene where they know something is on the bottom of the lake and someone will have to swim for it and gansey starts having an internal spiral bc it would be "improper for him to take his shirt off in front of ladies" or something like that and is then interrupted by blue going it's swamp time motherfuckers and diving straight in. top tier couple dynamic
sometimes i hate being a woman because i just realized i’ve been living vicariously through so many nhl players this entire time because i will literally never make it to that level of professional hockey even though it’s always been my dream. like no matter how hard i work at it or how bad i want it, i will never be good enough because of my gender. it hurts so much to think about the fact that even 100 years from now there will probably still not be room for women in the nhl. little girls will continue to grow up with unachievable dreams because there is nothing in place for them to achieve them. the PWHL only had their inaugural draft this past season. we are over 100 years behind. currently the most you will probably make in the PWHL is $80,000 a year and the average nhl player gets paid $3.5 million per year. that means the HIGHEST PAID women in the PWHL will be paid 43.75 times less than the AVERAGE nhl player. currently, the highest paid nhl player receives $12.6 million per year. 157.5 times less. i’m not even angry about this. it’s just heartbreaking to sit down and think about it sometimes.

You’re a good kid play the game to break your heart
You gotta get back to where you started
Pay attention now, or it’ll slip by
It your heart don’t let it die

Playing with a new painting style and looking through old snippets of story, I found one where John sees Caro’s lockscreen, and is surprised one of the pictures it cycles is of them when they were teens, and how in so many ways it’s like looking at a stranger, he wouldn’t have seen pictures of himself from back then before or at least not in a long time, and I think he’d be surprised they would hold onto that. More surprised they still have his bleach art tee, even if it’s full of holes now.
