#sorry i'm a dick sometimes

I did think (wrongly, apparently!) you meant playoffs, which is across the board terrible officiating. You're right that I couldn't say who gets away with more in the regular season, but I do know that when it comes to injuries resulting from dirty hits, they don't get suspended enough in post-season for any team. I agree Matthews isn't an angel, but how many times does an opponent injure him and nothing comes from it? Nylander too, and like, look at how beat up Draisaitl and Ekblad get every single season. None of them play clean, but they all suffer from the lack of integrity in officiating as much as they benefit. You yourself said that in your post, so we agree there too, I just think it's oversimplifying a serious issue to chalk it all up to bias for specific stars on specific teams. I think the issue is wider than that, but maybe that wasn't your intention and I misunderstood.

nah and you're good. playoffs officiating is dogshit and like. i do NOT envy them at all. i wouldn't want to officiate a regular season game let alone a first round playoffs game.

i think it may be an oversimplification, but there are legitimate trends of nhl stars not receiving penalties that they should. i think the issue with auston is that he doesn't necessarily intend to injure? and he's been very open about that, he doesn't engage with fights he tells his locker room he doesn't like fighting etc, but he's absolutely a target for other teams. but he absolutely participates in undisciplined behavior (hooking slashing holding are his worst i've noticed) like they're going out of style

willy too. people know he's a threat so they go after him, and he i have noticed doesn't necessarily go for undisciplined penalties as much but he does hook and trip quite often and it doesn't get called as much as it should. probably about a third (if i had the time to go back and watch games i would but unfortunately a man has a busy schedule here for the next week, depending on what next week looks like i'll get back to you) of willy's penalties don't get called in the regular season

which, like i said in the last anon, it can absolutely be chalked up to the four officials just flat out not being able to pay attention to ten people all at once. and only refs can call penalties yadda yadda yadda, linespeople literally aren't allowed to blow the whistle for undisciplined penalties and they're only allowed to snitch after the whistle has been blown, but like. god damn there's no way they're not seeing that shit and just ignoring it.

and yeah you're right. it was especially egregious during the playoffs when aus took that suspected midbody (?) injury and it went uncalled. and i mean, aus doesn't get injured nearly as much as our d does, and i feel like that almost doesn't get called as much as it should to the same if not to a worse degree. how many times did mccabe bleed all over himself and the worst the opposition got was a two minute minor? how many times was calle out for 5+ games after getting charged and the opposition didn't get a call? how many times was Iily hit in the head and dragged off the ice and no one said anything?

i think if we're going to argue that there isn't a leafs bias there are other places to look. i think that you have a valid argument somewhere if you want to try and make one, but it isn't wrt the stars. it's wrt the d core

and like there is a much more obvious intent to injure (maybe not even injure? maybe subdue? but i'm gonna go with injure i personally think they're full of goons like you can't have evander kane and corey perry on your team without admitting that there is intent to injure there) with the oilers stars. they're a MUCH more physical team than the leafs are. the more recent stars the leafs have picked up (domi) and the ones they're developing (knies) are reffed fairly in my opinion, so it kind of evens out. but with the oilers, their physicality from what i've seen doesn't (necessarily). if i watched more than like 15 regular season oilers games a year i'd be able to give better specific commentary but unfortunately i am a bad oilers spectator

a lot of people seem to use Entry #61 as 'proof' for the crux of the "Brian didn't care about Tim, he was Taking Advantage of Tim's conditions and Forcing him to work as part of totheark" thing, but honestly when you think about it there's no possible way Brian could have possibly orchestrated that series of events, like you almost have to interpret that as a baffling group of coincidences

“Slut your wrists! Kill yourself! then you post a selfie saying “Don’t want to smile feel weird about it” as a desperate attempt to get compliments. You’re in your mid twenties doing all this😭 Grow up you’re not a teenager anymore. 30 is closer than ever and you’re breaking down because someone asked if you cry a lot? Someone mentions your jowls and you freak out. You tell them to kill themselves. People your age are Mothers. You might not have any but act your age. Geez.

my dick must taste fantastic for how far you're throating it

r ppl seriously complaining about sabrina carpenter covering good luck babe?? accusing her of 'adopting the queer aesthetic as her own' as if she hasn't been an extremely active ally since forever and nothing but respectful when she advocates + supports the community???

The worst thing about fandom is when you're experiencing a media and you're like "I can't wait to read all the fucked up daddy kink people will write about this" and you open up ao3 only to find fandom has decided they're father and son

There's definitely some stuff to say about Nightwing: Knight Terrors in regards to how it treats the Batgirls as an afterthought and it feels like there's some sort of missing Batgirls tie-in to Knight Terrors...

But I will say this, I think Cloonrad writes a pretty damn good Dick Grayson.

Look, maybe it's because we've been stuck with Tom Taylor's writing for God knows how long, but it felt very refreshing.

Dick was cocky again, he had more of a personality here than he has had in his entire run.

Plus Scarecrow even tries to make a Nightwing butt joke and Dick is very clearly uncomfortable with it and tells him to shut the fuck up, lol.

Like damn, with a writer on Nightwing currently who has tried to defend that unfunny joke before, it's just nice to see it shot down.

So yeah, am I upset about the Batgirls getting a bit shafted here? Sure, but I do think that this is probably the best Nightwing content we're getting for a while.

just saw a post where you mentionned not liking vaginal sex because it hurts and is uncomfortable and wow i's so rare to find people attracted to men who have a vagina but don't enjoy what society sees as "the right way" to enjoy sex with that organ ! Im in the same situation ! Ive only ever met one other AFAB person who didn't like it, it was a cis bisexual woman. I'm always so weirded out when people assume vaginal intercourse is the way im probably having sex bc it's sooo unpleasant to me. Anyway sorry for this random ask, it's a little lonely out there im glad to know there are other people with vaginas who don't like using it for penetrative sex

I also have a bisexual woman as a friend (tho she is genderfluid-ish) who enjoys/prefers anal, actually it was her I asked for some advice when I was still figuring out how to actually enjoy sex.

People tend to assume this about me too (that because I was born with a vagina I must use it for sex) and then get really confused when I say I don't do that. They also sometimes call me a cocksucker and get even more confused when I say I don't really do that either. It becomes extremely telling that they hear that I was assigned female at birth and have mixed feelings on bottom surgery and thus I have to be using my evil pussy and womanly woman lips when it's like. Nah I just prefer hands and anal actually.

sometimes it's fun to hear abt how certain scams came down (at least when they have a happy ending and the people hurt get refunds or some other compensation) but man. there's always people who are gonna say "this was so obviously a scam and anyone who fell for it is just stupid" and i find that. upsetting ig? especially when the red flags are things you have to actively look for/be relatively well versed in certain topics to notice

like i watched a video breaking down the day before and how its scam went down and everyone in the comments is talking abt how stupid gamers are and only very little people are like "hey. most people don't read game news or follow every trailer and update about games, they just see one cool trailer and want to buy the game" and even then! people respond to it saying "well that's stupid, you shouldn't do that" like bro i don't think it's fair to expect people to research every product they're gonna buy 😭 online stores yes (as in, don't give your money to dubious sites who will steal your information or just take the money and run), but this was hosted on steam. read reviews maybe, but we're talking about pre-release wishlisting or first day purchases. obviously with the gift of hindsight this is very easy to mock, especially if you ARE the type of person who's involved in gaming news and thus knows what red flags to look for, but the vast majority of people aren't and it just feels unfair

ig that's the core of it?? it's unfair. like if someone gets away with a scam you shouldn't blame the people scammed, you should blame the scammer, who usually knows how to manipulate their words and promises all in order to get people to pay them, and hopefully get away with it through loopholes. by calling people stupid for getting manipulated, you only serve the manipulator and show other potential manipulators they can get away with it too if they just target the right people 🤷‍♂️ (which is shitty to do anyway, but if looking at it from a more selfish angle helps hammer it in - one day you could end up one of those right people. you are not immune to getting scammed)

seeing people get anonymous accusatory asks from presumably their own mutuals/followers is so scary...... i can't imagine any of my friends that are all haiiiiii ^_^ with me suddenly turning around and going uhhh why would you reblog this post with a little detail in it that could be taken strangely clearly just because you didn't realize there was something up with it? 🤨📸 irredeemable scumbag. like hi? hey
