My grandfather's dying and I might be getting laid off so I've decided to be delusional and focus entirely on the Mets' season starting on Thursday. I'm doing pretty okay with that, having managed to work up one of my hyper fits at work today while babbling about Johan Santana (now playing the role of my Jesus). Basically: reality? What reality?

And oh yeah, the Rangers clinched first place in the Eastern Conference.

ANY PLAYER WHO DOES THIS IS AUTOMATICALLY FILED UNDER "NOT A HOMOPHOBIC JACKASS" IN MY BOOK. POINTS TO YOU, BOYS.

How do I cope with depression? By watching a frantic, messy, violent sport, of course. I need something to get me through the two weeks until the MLS season starts and the 38 days until the MLB season starts.

I can't stop watching this goal:

It's totally hilarious to get into a sport using fandom, since I'm learning about players through slash and picspams of who's hot. And the Staal family is already my kryptonite, because there is nothing I love more than siblings who play the same sport. (See: Kljestans, Valentins, Holdens, Rapinoes.)

Also, the world clearly needs a Generation Kill hockey AU in which Brad is always chirping guys with his wit and the other guys are too flustered to even realize they're being insulted half the time except for Ray, who just laughs and chirps back, leaving Brad first amazed and then attracted and soon they're fucking in the hallways in arenas. Right?

i have been opening fics for x-men: first class in tabs and then not reading them at all so i'm not sure that i actually care about getting into the fandom.

some links:

+the person of interest intersection by primetime
fic for the middleman, wendy/lacey that is fantastic

+i would make a post about how awesome frank turner is but i think that the ruckus has covered it far better. but i really do recommend listening to glory hallelujah, which i will probably play at high volume for most of the five days i have my house to myself

+an adorable boy did the doctor's speech from the pandorica opens and it's, well, adorable

+pretend you're a baseball fan and read patrick flood's post about the pittsburgh pirates. it's done entirely pirate-speak. pirate-speak.

now i'm going to try to forget about the usmnt losing to panama (wtf?) and instead dwell on the fact that my blind pick for the stanley cup finals is one win away from being champions.

i am reading after diana by christopher andersen because i am in the mood to expand my knowledge about the royal family on a superficial level. so far it’s delivering on the scandal and callousness, even though i’m skeptical about the accuracy of 90% of the stuff. but there’s a line from page 14 that is, uh, kind of odd:
