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.

Waterrock Knob Trail Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina 1.11 miles 429 ft. Elevation Gain

Well I had one more big hike planned for my trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway that was 10 miles, but my body was super tired, and since the mountain was 20 minutes off the parkwayI decided to give my body a break and just do this last little hike, Waterrock Knob. It was an easy trail, paved most of the way. A pretty nice hike and view foe the final hike of the parkway. I am going to miss these views. <3

She blinks, waiting for an actual answer, her sweet smile returning once she gets one. She's in, or at least in enough that they're having a drink together. That's usually all it takes for Cass to find someone to spend a night with, but she'll see how easy it is to charm this particular person. "I'm drinking an AMF. It's basically a blue long island iced tea." She sets her empty glass down on the bar and takes a step closer, her fingers brushing casually against their arm. "But what are you drinking? Let me take care of it."

people really need to get a grip. The pale blue eye is a book set in 1830s, why are you surprised that there’s misogyny in the film?

I loooooove drag that really commits to the concept of being strange and unbelievable. I know next to nothing about drag but like. juno birch trixie mattel. when the point of the act is the extreme, the exaggeration. I love when drag looks like drag. on purpose. huge hair that looks like a wig. huge features and crazy colors and outfits that are fantastical and impractical. drag that just looks like a beautiful woman is impressive but feels boring to me. idk.

My Favorite Books I Read in 2023 (In No Particular Order)

Check out these books that I loved reading during 2023

In previous years, I’ve limited my favorite books read in a year posts to ten. This year, I decided not to limit myself because I read so many books I absolutely adored in 2023 and I just couldn’t pare them down to ten. As always, not all of these books were published in 2023, but I read all 61 of them between 1st January and 31st December 2023. These were a mixture of fiction and non-fiction,…

OPEN STARTER

"Caralho!", resmungou indo em direção a proa do iate, na expectativa de ficar sozinha.

Dani não acreditava que deu o azar de encontrar o homem sobre o qual publicou uma matéria na semana anterior. A manchete, destacada na capa do jornal Papiro Daily, dizia sem pudor: 'Homem misterioso revelado: entenda quem está por trás da falsificação das três obras do Le Musée d'Éternité', com a assinatura logo abaixo: 'por Doh Dani'. Ela não se arrependia, muito pelo contrário, estava orgulhosa de um trabalho tão minucioso em tão pouco tempo — além de sempre ter um sabor delicioso derrubar homens brancos, ricos e corruptos. Mas esse não era o ponto. A questão que a irritava era o fato de que, mesmo rastejando, aqueles parasitas filhos da puta ainda tinham seu valor. O sabor era amargo, no fim das contas.

O encontro, é claro, não foi dos melhores, ameaças e palavrões foram ditos, isso sem contar as ofensas misóginas ditas pelo filho da puta que não tirava o sorriso do rosto, como se estivesse feliz em vê-la.

"Mas que caralho!", chutou o chão de leve, procurando o maço de cigarros na bolsa preta.

Sequer olhava para frente quando não só encontrou o que queria, como fechou os olhos e contou até dez, tentando se livrar da irritação de uma nova dor de cabeça: estava sem cigarros.

"Puta que me pariu, viu!", praguejou e abriu os olhos, observando as luzes da cidade.

Decidida a extravasar, jogou a bolsa no chão de madeira e se aproximou do corrimão da proa. Ao segurar com firmeza no metal, começou a desabafar com a água, em coreano:

"Por que eu preciso passar por essas coisas? Já não é suficiente tudo o que vêm acontecendo?", perguntou retoricamente e respondeu a si mesma em seguida: "É, exatamente, não é justo!", bufou irritada e subiu em um dos corrimãos, inclinando o corpo para frente e se debruçando como uma criança inconsequente e dramática. "Shibal! Esse filho da puta! Se eu não tivesse no meio de uma festa e ele não fosse a porra de humano, seria uma estaca bem enfiada no peito! Só uma!"

Foi então que ouviu um barulho atrás de si e, ainda segurando firme na barra de ferro, ergueu o corpo olhando para trás, vendo muse. "Oi, tudo... bem?, foi a única coisa que disse, pensando no quão estranho deveria ser para a pessoa vê-la pendurada no corrimão de um iate parado, xingando em coreano, quase dando uma de Rose Dawson em Titanic.

Harkening Hill Loop Trail Peaks of Otter, Blue Ridge Parkway, Virginia 3.79 Miles 1,021 ft. Elevation Gain

The last mountain that makes up the Peaks of Otter on the Blue Ridge Parkway is Harkening Hill. It's definitely not as grand as the other two mountains, but this hike was really neat! It has some balancing rocks featured along the trail, and it goes through some meadows, and by a creek which was really nice. The view was obviously not as good as Sharp Top, but the hike itself was really good.
