so fstwt has swung back to "if you like Japanese skaters you're a weeb"
but Japanese skaters legitimately have the best skating skills and the best ice coverage and knees because of how figure skating is taught and trained in Japan.
My brain is not capable of understanding the concept of a greatest of all time skater who is not Yuzuru Hanyu thank you
Omg, screw US Fed forever. Theyβre really stealing the queenβs crown because theyβre upset their golden boy flopped his event. Maybe Iβm done with this sport afterall. Kaori you deserve so much better than this.

I hate usfs paying for scores so much πππππ
But nah I think I'll go catch up with the three years of yuzu shows I missed instead
Seeing skating clips on my feed made me truly miss it though
Yesterday I had the thought that maybe I should watch fs again starting next season but lol
I hate JSF and Japanese judge about as much as I hate americans.
usfs truly destroys all possibility of enjoying american skaters even when they're good. completely.
I got out of this fuckass sport so it can't hurt me anymore but I was mistaken. Might as well have been stabbed in the gut repeatedly. Oh, Kaori πππ
we have not "apprehended" the president of venezuela. we have invaded a foreign country and kidnapped its leader. what the fuck are we doing here, i am going to lose my mind

Biggest point of making AI the new default way to search information is to kill peopleβs proficiency with researching things for themselves. Google nerfed their search in purpose and no one reads anymore, attention economy likes easier to manipulate ppl going βchat [gpt] is this real?β
just as kids born after the internet know no life without it, tech is converging to overtake sensemaking. kids growing up now will never know life without eg AI propaganda; the inability+difficulty of knowing what's real forces tribalism. new generations will not be tired of a world they don't know
Still a big favourite of mine!

This program is so, so good. If you have even the slightest passing interest in figure skating please do yourself a favor and watch this one.

Somehow, he still managed to elevate the short program, even though I thought his short programs before that point were the already pinnacle of skating. Yet he made it even better. Like how? How is he real?
I still remember my exact reaction when I watched this on a shitty livestream at some ungodly hour, which was, I didn't think figure skating could be like this. I cried.
To this day, this is still the most insane and perfect short program ever skated by any figure skater

Fingers: [play a complicated passage pretty easily]
Brain: hey how are we doing that
Me: no brain, I beg of you, donβtβ
Brain: too late, weβre overthinking things now
Fingers: yeah so we canβt play this passage anymore
Lol at the idea that people with ADHD are ruining things for anyone but themselves. Bitch, we don't have the attention span for that!
happy merry Yuzuru day!
