Halloween is my second favourite holiday of the year. Tomorrow is my favourite, All Saints Day, otherwise known as The International Day of the Goaltender, or Goalie Day for short.
Huge shoutout to the man who bridges both big mask occasions.

The 80s was a shining, glorious wave of success and unity after the batshit chaotic insanity of the 70s. Relatively speaking, the US was a war zone compared to the 80s or today. Read a book.
Ryan Reynolds says ’80s nostalgia “paves over all the trauma” of the “tumultuous” decade:
“The 80s was a brutal, brutal time for people. It was a fucking mess and people forget that. It was a tremendous strife. Socio political tensions everywhere. We were still pretty fresh off which was only 15-20 years before. It’s a tumultuous period, but you look back at it now and you’re like, ‘Oh, yeah. ‘Top Gun.’ Cocaine!’ Like, ‘No!’ It was really scary.”
In Apple TV’s “Mayday,” Reynolds stars as a U.S. Navy pilot who builds an unlikely friendship with an eccentric ex-KGB agent (Kenneth Branagh) obsessed with ’80s American culture.

Sir, I present to you the world’s least erotic erotic fantasy! It is precisely not the kind of novel you read with one hand.

Damnit, there’s a word on the tip of my tongue for the thing we used to use to bring ideas to life, but I can’t think of it.

The verb for this is “waffling” as in, “He knows you don’t actually mean that. He’s just waffling you.”

I’m slow sometimes, thanks. In my defense, the article’s premise, this list, and the article’s conclusion, are all somehow unrelated.

The pictured quotation is so absurd, I wondered for a minute if the article was parody

Lee blocked me after I called him out for using AI to argue. He understood nothing of the subject (see below), then tried to save face by Grocking arguments. Why on earth would anyone waste their time doing this, and then get offended when accused of wasting everyone’s time?

Can anyone explain why a 24” paddle is recommended for goalies 4’6” to 5’10”? I understand intermediate sticks are lighter with smaller blades, but isn’t 24” the same length shoulder to ice?

Is there a good reason why manufacturers don’t make non-elastic toe-ties or straps with their pads? The Warrior system is simple and elegant. If the already adjustable strap was made a bit longer and without elastic, I feel like it would be perfect. Am I missing something?

When you say the goalies aren’t to blame, maybe instead say the goalies aren’t solely to blame, because they are, indeed, to blame:

Well, my youngest dipped his toes into goaltending this season and I regret to inform you we’ve been sucked into the whirlpool. Won MVP of his house league team too, and no amount of parental caution can compete with that kind of external validation.

This bit from the @JhanHky newsletter caught my attention. If goaltending is your sole focus, hobby, passion, and recreation from a young age, you’re doing yourself a grave disservice.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney was caught making this hand gesture recently. The RCMP advises that this sign is closely associated with a known cabal, operating in Canada for well over 100 years. Members continue to use this sign in secret to this day.

How long did it take to vote in the Ontario provincial election? From opening my car door to go into the polling station to closing the door again after voting took less than 4.5 minutes.

Are we doomed as a culture? Probably. Why? There are hundreds of outraged comments on this and a few other similar FB posts, all of which link to interviews where he says the US was robbed, the game should be replayed, etc.
Not a single commenter checked to see if it was real.
