AO3 author note "hopefully this is something. if not I'll just die or whatever."

find me something more dramatic than AO3 author notes... I'll wait.

An open letter to my immune system: bro, wtf. just chill. mybodyistryingtokillme.com

Because we all have those days when we need it, here is a nice sapphic hurt/comfort one-shot where Priya had a bad day at work, and her wife Jenny comforts her.

My beta called it a "hot sexy hug", so enjoy if you need a hug today. 🩷🩷

I want to like bridgerton but also I can't tell any of the boys/men apart 🤣

For years, the rink felt like home — and also a place of hiding.

Hockey player Jesse Kortuem just shared a deeply personal coming-out story.

What helped him finally open up?
Watching Heated Rivalry.

This is what representation looks like. 🏒❤️

man the heated rivalry fandom got weird fast. to clarify, our server is a queer-forward, queer-centered fandom space, where everyone is welcomed regardless of how they identify, but marginalized voices are lifted and listened to.

It shouldn't even have to be said.

anyone in the #heartsky community (or who has connected with me re: HR on here) and is interested in a discord about the hockey show hit me up in DMs...

🤷 there isn't that much sex, it's just sex that people aren't used to seeing on TV. There's no frontal nudity at all. The show is made and shot really well, it's not all about sex, it's just a slow emotional burn with fast physical intimacy, romance, angst, yearning, etc. its good overall.

I have way too many WIPs that I lose steam on and then will jump into and then let sit for a bit on repeat 😂

Excellent recap and discussion of season 1 for #heatedrivalry

beta readers really are the true heros - responding to a chapter from a story they forgot they agreed to beta with me over a year ago 😂

I added you in 💜

OK #heatedrivalry #loonsky - I made a starter pack - let me know if you want to be added in to connect with other heated rivalry fans. 🏒

Get ready when you do!

yes - stupid Canadian wolf bird 🤣

we need at least 6 people to start a starter pack and then we can just snowball it from there

Behind-the-scenes photo from The Wheel of Time showing actor Marcus Rutherford kneeling in a desert landscape beside Ka Lupinka, the wolfdog who played Hopper. Rutherford wears a brown shirt and textured vest as part of his costume and looks down with a gentle smile while resting a hand near the wolfdog. Ka Lupinka stands calmly in the foreground with eyes partly closed, gray-and-cream fur catching the sunlight. Sandy hills and a clear blue sky stretch across the background

Wolfbrother 🐺 💚 ⚒️

when we were doing it with heartstopper we made a list first... 🤔🤔

#loonsky #heatedrivalry

let me know if you want to be in an HR starter pack so people can find each other!

Do we have a Heated Rivalry community tag yet? What would it be - LoonSky? Can I remake the #heartsky magic with a new group?

(don't worry heartsky, you are still my OG)

still on my bullshit writing cracky silly heated rivalry fic....
in case you were wondering how Vince is doing.

Hello UK Bluesky friends! We are SO EXCITED that your Heated Rivalry day fast approaches - January 10 on Sky and NOW!

This thread (with help from @lalegault.bsky.social and @karenho.bsky.social and @gethporno.bsky.social ) will be your primer for this very Canadian series. So here goes!

HA! no chance. the fics on this fandom are wild. like fics getting 10s of thousands of kudos in a few days. I don't know how anyone keeps up or reads anything in this fandom! 😂

a silly little Heated rivalry fic based off the idea that Ilya searches for RPF that is him and Hollander.

it's just silly and a bit cracky, with some fun work skins.

Who wants to fancast a Rocky Horror Muppet Show with @raanne.bsky.social and I? I don’t see a polling feature, which I’m sad about.

Also Happy New Year #heartsky and all.

MEEEEE (yes I know I'm already a part of this conversation)

"You know what the data would have said about Heated Rivalry? "Limited appeal. Niche subject matter. No star power. High risk." The algorithm would have been wrong. The algorithm is always wrong about the things that really matter. It might be great at predicting patterns but humans are complex and break patterns of behavior all the time." Anna LaMadrid Heated Rivalry is the Prototype. PUTMEONSELFTAPE.SUBSTACK.COM

Heated Rivalry as algorithmic resistance this club has everything.

That moment when Ilya comforts Shane as he panics with his parents, and we see Yuna just set down her fork and get this look in her eyes watching them - I cant tell you how amazing it would be as a parent to see someone treat my kid with such tenderness. #heatedrivalry

Hi there. Isn't it interesting how the most popular TV shows and movies this year (Sinners, Kpop Demon Hunters, and Heated Rivalry) were all hyper specific stories, proving that "universal appeal" (i.e. appealing to white straight folks) is not actually that appealing?
