We're being spoiled. First #HeatedRivalry, now #10Dance.
I mean, they aren't comparable, really. Heated Rivalry is a romance that is set in the world of ice hockey. 10 Dance is a movie about dance, with romance.

"pent up demand for rail options" also explains much of the success of Heated Rivalry
seriously though, there is very clearly pent up demand for rail options and every reason to build out as much new rail as possible.

I wrote about the narrative importance of the sex scenes in Heated Rivalry, how this reflects the magic of romance novel storytelling, and how the plot is fuelled by a genuinely bleak view of homophobia in hockey culture.

I think this video got it right about why girlboss movies are so boring: they are actually male power fantasies, just with women playing the male parts, because Hollywood doesn't actually know What Women Want™.

Back in the day, I bought the first Whyborne & Griffin novel, didn't vibe with it, set it aside, and didn't come back to it.
Well, past anehan's loss is current anehan's gain. It's excellent reading while on sick leave. 🤩

Everyone and their cousin is dangling this show in front of my face. Fuck licensing restrictions, seriously. 😭
There's a lot of talk about the steaminess of #HeatedRivalry, but there are more reasons to watch. Jacob Tierney's direction and the microexpression work of the actors is sublime — especially as mainstream American-produced streaming prioritizes "passive viewing."

I don't even follow the channel, but I'm unreasonably invested in the dishwasher saga. Truly epic.
Folks, I have a new video today where I'm very excited to announce a new dishwasher powder on the market.
Why am I so excited? Because it's vindicated every single one of my detergent opinions.
