Yankees, baseball, gymnastics, figure skating, Broadway, theater. Forest Hills. Views are my own.
It would be nice if they were only allowed to do this after a special segment apologizing for having him host five years ago, when he was already a well-established menace to the overall wellbeing of the nation

Just absolutely cackled catching up on the pairs free skate. Desrochers/Thrasher come on screen, and I say to myself "this mfer looks like Regé-Jean Page." Seconds later, Mark (paraphrased, obviously): "They're skating to Bridgerton because this mfer looks like Regé-Jean Page." 🤣 #GPCHN #GPFigure ⛸️
As for the other plotline at CoC, it's so gross I don't even have words. But when Mark Hanretty, the nicest man in figure skating, feels compelled to make a notes app Instagram post, you know you've fucked it up. These "fans" should be ashamed. #GPCHN #GPFigure ⛸️ www.instagram.com/p/Dfd6u8sjOI...

Okay look. I'm not trying to dump on either of them or on USFS/their social team. And yes, this was a very strong field, but LK was over 100 points behind the winner and JS was 20 points behind the skater in 10th. US men not named Ilia (and Jason? 🤞🏼🤷🏻♀️) are just not competitive right now. ⛸️
U.S. Figure Skating@usfigureskating.bsky.social · yesterdayJacob Sanchez and Lucius Kazanecki finished 11th and 12th, respectively, in a highly competitive field at Cup of China on Sunday, the third of six Grand Prix Series events of the season.
Rant: The last four years of women's figure skating was beautiful. There was so much warmth and support both from the fans and between the athletes themselves. I think the Cup of China has made it abundantly clear that that atmosphere was only possible because of the exclusion of Russian athletes.
Q: I’m told that Vivek Ramaswamy left you a congratulatory phone call. Have the two of you spoken? Governor-elect Amy Acton: We can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale, so no, I have no intention of speaking to him. Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.
So excited for skating this weekend for precisely this reason, especially dance. It's a shame I can watch so little of it live but them's the breaks. #GPCHN #GPFigure ⛸️
Chels@heartsdesire456.bsky.social · 4d agoMark Hanretty is without a doubt the best commentator in the game. He is educational, encouraging, and earnest. Also he makes happy noises when he's enjoying what's going on. Also he's cried over how beautiful a skate was while commentating before so he REALLY, truly loves this sport <3
😴😴😴 Yeah that's not happening. See you for pairs at 6 since I'm up then anyway 🤷🏻♀️ #GPCHN #GPFigure ⛸️

Something about this email / alert just made me cackle so loudly that I'm half expecting a nearby colleague to message asking what was so funny. Today's been a good day 🤣🥰💙

A wonderful distraction for the evening and hit just as hard the second time. Such a talented cast.
Any elimination tonight and from here to the finale is going to hurt. That dance sealed it for me. Connor has really improved so much. #DWTS
Daniella is an UNBELIEVABLE choreographer, my god. And Ezra is so damn good. That samba was stunning. #DWTS
I saw In the Heights at NYCC this afternoon and I'm seeing it again Tuesday night (already had plans to go with one friend when another reached out to suggest it, so... why not?). It was great to be mostly offline today & I am so glad I will not be able to look at my phone on Tues for several hours.
Woke up at 4:30 this morning not nearly as tired as I should've been and very confused. Managed to go back to sleep until 7ish and then was even more confused by how bright it was but thankfully I have a clock that didn't change on its own to remind me what's happening 🤦🏻♀️
