Hi y’all!

Just checking in. Life’s been a bit of a struggle lately. A lot of my people have left NYC or NJ and the last one just left this week. I’ll still be able to see her but much more infrequently.

So if anyone has any recs (comments or dms appreciated) on how to make friends as an adult please tell me 🙏🏻 my strategy up to this point has been joining programs where I’m given a found family and they just learn to love me 😅 and we stay close over the phone but I want friends who I can actually talk to in person or go to a theater show with. Queer friends especially. Idk what it is about me but I come off really straight and attract Christians like crazy. Which I have no problem with but I would like to broaden out.

Wishing the hockey community right now was my in real life family. I miss you all like crazy. I’m really close to my goal of a laptop so hopefully soon I’ll be back full time

So ready (not) for the Jake news I forgot others players could be traded too. Chad the dad leaving is not what I was ready for

Saw the video of Jake this morning and my heart just tore into little pieces. Thank you Jake for the milkshakes—you have incredible taste. You will always be a penguin in my eyes

I heard about the Jake thing awhile ago but refused to accept it. I remember a few years ago posting how I felt for certain Jake would be the future captain of the Pittsburg Penguins and my heart broke realizing my dream has been taken

I just saw the score and holy hell

Hi all!

Just jumping on to say sorry I’ve been out but I have a reason:

My laptop died. I am suffering 🥺 and here comes the dreaded waiting period as I save for a new one (and I’m the type who refuses to go bare minimum and will save for one that’s advanced enough to handle online gaming). I’m left with my phone only at the moment as I have no tablet either. I’m trying to not use credit cards.

Meanwhile though I am working a lot on my physical health. At the gym the only games that are on at 7 Pm are NJ devils games or Rangers games so in a way I’ve been watching hockey just not the teams I love. I miss you all a lot and miss the boys even more. I’m looking to see this time with no laptop as a plus though as I’ve been consistent with the gym now at 4 days a week.

Go Pens!

Something interesting that people don’t talk about much as you get older is watching people you knew in high school evolve in a completely different direction. I went to a school with a lot of ultra religious people and I’ve watched as countless of them have walked away from their churches and shared their religious trauma and become staunch advocates for LGBTQ+ rights, creating art/writing that makes them feel free, and sharing their exploration of a new world. Then I’ve watched some super liberal, anarchist people live the corporate nightmare they vowed never to partake in and become greedy. I’ve met people who were pro LGBTQ+ rights find God and become terfs/homophobes. The activist friend of yours who becomes the pta mom, stay at home wife who fundraises for schools but hasn’t marched in a long time or cared to read the news. The jock who had it all and cared for nothing but winning become all about helping teenagers thrive.

#life #high school #growth #change #friends #religious trauma #for my lgbtq people you may be surprised to find those religious freaks your best friend now #lgbtqia

I’ve seen a lot of empty net fails but that one was one of the hardest to see. Literally while the goalie is still on the ice trying to get away and we lose possession 🥺

Seeing Jars try to run back and slide for it was heartbreaking
