sometimes they’re really asked the stupidest questions, or at least this seems like a stupid one with his reply

(The question isn’t included in the video)

Auston: [laughs] I think he’s great [everyone laughs] I think he’s awesome. I mean, he’s a great, a great person to begin with. Great friend to me. But obviously his play and, uh, what he does on the ice is exceptional and, you know, so is all the Swedish guys we that have in our team so we’re lucky to have them/him

I'm resisting the urge to feel partial towards the australian team but.

Nothing in the world belongs to me But my love, mine, all mine

goofy hermit doodles!! because uhh why not!!

what listening to “Fearless Hero” from Puss in Boots: The Last Wish on repeat does to a kirby fan

mk: who is your favorite fearless hero?

Just gave this plucky little fellow a ride to the safety of a bush. A curious guy, he climbed all on my hand and arm before settling on my fingers like this.

I don't know what it is about this lil 'stache on him, but it makes me absolutely feral

now idk what the movie’s like or the tone of it. but idk how you could possibly read ‘you are not a beautiful or unique snowflake’ in the context of the rest of fight club and possibly come away with the conclusion that a ‘special snowflake’ is an embarrassing and pointless thing to be unless you’d actually bought into the narrator’s pov. which would be an absolutely insane thing to do & in fact the writing makes it very easy to go ‘i am trapped in this man’s head while he is actively losing it and maybe what he’s saying is a reflection of him actively losing it’

yknow it is crazy to think about how much i have been able to improve my quality of life by selling art as a supplementary form of income. like obviously it's a second job and it's taxing but it's also so rewarding to know how much people enjoy my work and how much good it is doing me to like, feel like i can buy snacks at the store. to be able to get takeout every once in a while. like obviously those are extremely minor changes or things most people take for granted but to me it's huge. having berries in the house when they're out of season and more expensive. buying things for CONVENIENCE??! it feels so crazy to me to have such a sense of luxury which i know says more about the bleak feeling of poverty that's followed me around my entire adult life than anything else but i feel so much gratitude that i am afforded these small luxuries at least in part because of people that like my art. not to mention how nice is is to make things consistently again when, prior to 2020, i hadn't made art regularly in almost a decade. anyway. it's cool!

no ok like. like i have to break this down i am actually losing my mind. whenever i visited my grandparents on my dads side as a kid theyd put on field of dreams like, constantly. it would just be running in the background, sometimes multiple times per day. the background radiation of that movie is just kinda in my dna and it awoke something in me today.

field of dreams is about faith. it's a guy who had a strained relationship with his late father because they were both BIG baseball buffs, but the main character's personal hero was shoeless joe jackson, a chicago white sox player who was mostly known for his participation in the black sox scandal despite being an incredibly gifted batter. mc and his father disagreed heavily about jackson, with his father calling him a criminal but the main character idolizing him as a hero.

a little while after his father passes away, main character gets these voices telling him if you build it, he will come. he decides to mow down a huge chunk of his cornfield and build a baseball field in its place, which basically everyone in his life considers a really fucking terrible move since that means he's massively dropped the sale value of his property and also is gonna lose all the money he shouldve gotten from corn. but he did this all on faith - building it, so he will come.

the field gets inhabited by numerous ghostly players from the past, all of them legends, and among them is shoeless joe jackson. there's almost this expectation that he is who was supposed to come - the main characters personal hero. but by the end of the film, he learns that one of the players on the field is actually his late father. he will come. the one defining relationship in his life that the main character was never able to reconcile.

in the final scene, he asks his father if he wants to play a game of catch. and as they pass the ball back and forth, we pull back and see that a line of cars has started to form. people are coming to see the game between father and son. people are gathering around to watch them play.

its a movie about faith. tear down your whole life and build a baseball field. build it, and he will come. build it, and they will come. in the emptiness of some random cornfield, there is magic, and there is a way to reach back into the past.

and people will watch you do it. people will gather around from all over the world to see this small, intimate window between two people they don't actually know.

its a movie about faith. i will defend the faith, going down swinging. and fob had to have such faith in us for this to work, didnt they? they planted a single, cryptic ad in a newspaper in chicago. no media hype, no socials, nothing. just one ad, in one newspaper, in chicago.

but thats the thing. it worked. we spread it like wildfire regardless. we all latched onto it. they did this small thing on the faith that we would know what to do with it and it fucking worked.

because crowds are won and lost and won again. but our hearts beat for the diehards.

of course jb would be picked to play someone named Tiger Brockman, who is fucking someone else's wife. that's spot on.
