Thank you so much to @nellminow.bsky.social for the edits and for inviting me to be part of Women Writers Week!

And here are just a few of the many, many screenshots I took of Shane's fleece from its approximately four minutes of screen time www.rogerebert.com/features/an-...

An Anatomy of a Fleece: Why "Heated Rivalry" Fans Have Latched Onto its Very Canadian Jacket A look at a very important piece of winter wear.

For my debut at @ebertvoices.bsky.social, I went long on #HeatedRivalry and its incredibly viral fleece jacket (it's a Good Fleece!) www.rogerebert.com/features/an-...

Yeah. I only have the one day of data so far, but it’s been interesting to see how much more people are voting because of the Google Form. For the most part, Day 1’s tally aligned on both, but the only other one who won on Bluesky but lost with added with GF was PJO’s cable sweater

An Anatomy of a Fleece: Why β€˜Heated Rivalry’ Fans Have Latched Onto its Very Canadian Jacket A look at a very important piece of winter wear.

β€œWhen official Olympic outfits … can put you back hundreds of dollars, Shane’s fleece is approachable. In the reality of HEATED RIVALRY, it might possibly even be affordable,” writes @michejaw.bsky.social about the show’s β€œvery Canadian” fleece jacket.

Reupping this because you have 1 more day to vote! forms.gle/aAQuri82r668...

A quirky thing about Bluesky polls is that even though the polls themselves don't ever really close, I get automatic updates after 24 hours. So here's a glimpse (and only a fraction of the total votes so far)
