I love to grill the chicken, chop it up and make a chicken salad with celery, apricots, slivered almonds, curry powder and a bit of mayo.

If anyone in Vancouver wants one ticket to James Acaster tonight, let me know. I am hoping to make it down later this week but won’t be there tonight.

Just had a horrible yet awesome thought: the Kazakhstan gold medalist in men’s figure skating should skate his exhibition routine to Another One Bites the Dust.

Vancouver friends: we’ve got a Dyson tower fan of unknown age that’s going to a thrift store unless anyone wants it. Works fine, but has an annoying squeak that drives us batty. If you don’t have the same auditory issues we’ve got, could be great for summer.

Must claim within 30 minutes.

Femke Kok is just the best speed skater name.

The whole internet loves Jutta Leerdam, a lovely Dutch speedskater that goes fast! *5 seconds later* We regret to inform you that Jutta Leerdam is engaged to Jake Paul

Fun fact: the Heated Rivalry Drag Brunch was held in the same venue where my wedding reception took place, which I didn't realize until we got there, and I was like, wait, what?

It's true. We are the old fogies at the drag brunch, and I am the oldest of the old fogies.

Just starting with a viewing of ep6 and then the drag show

An Olympic accreditation sits on a table next to the menu for Heated Rivalry drag brunch

Did I dig out my Sochi 2014 accreditation to wear to Heated Rivarly drag brunch? Yes. Yes, I did.

Canada is really missing the Own the Podium funding, huh...

If I'm late to the Heated Rivalry Valentine's Day Drag Brunch, it's all the fault of the officials at the Olympic short track speed skating men's 1500m event taking for fucking ever to review the results.

Well, fuck. This has been a short track speed skating post.

imagine being an Olympic skater with curly blond hair named Ilia in 2026
