“To those who watch juniors and leave comments like, ‘she should lose a couple kilos,’ are you even freaking sane?”
“It’s honestly depressing how many skaters have to turn their personal social media into sales platforms for fast fashion, passing itself off as sportswear or environmentally (un)friendly stuff like bottled water, just to earn a bit of money because their federations can’t or don’t help to fund them.”
“Alina looks kinda like Meghan Markle in those recent ice age photos!”
“Evgenia and Anna S. seem to be good friends, I wonder how their relationship at Sambo is right now?”
“LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Trusova’s SP! People say she’s robotic and not lyrical, but Alexandra does what she wants, as she should. The costume, the music, the choreography, the elements: PERFECTION. Waiting for her to skate it cleanly! <3”
“When will the FS federations learn the lesson and stop hyping pre-teens/juniors/novices so much and naming them the next olympic champion, when they haven’t even finished growing and developing physically. Yes, I’m looking at you, Rusfed, and don’t get me started on the USFSA. I have no clue how they’re gonna fix the Alysa Liu problem, that was some big PR campaign gone to waste.”
“Petition to make Mishin share the fancam he did of Sasha’s FS at the Russian Cup Stage IV pls, ngl that was so funny, he was like a proud grandpa recording Sasha’s jumps!”
“You thought the Evgenia/Rika thing was double standards… Javier traveled during the pandemic to Russia, a hot spot, somehow bypassed the border restrictions, skated in a show with an audience the next day, and took a lot of photos with other people without a mask, lol. But, he’s Jabi, he can do no wrong.”
“I can’t believe how selfish some people are being, whining about competitions being cancelled when almost the entire northern hemisphere is a huge COVID-19 hotspot. Like, read a book or learn to knit or go on YouTube, nobody has to put their life at risk, just because you’re bored and want to watch skating.”
