Enough depressurized blobfish. I'm here to spread living blobfish propaganda.

Look at them. Gorgeous. Wonderful. Living comfortably at depths to over 1,200 meters in the ocean. Be nice to them.

Hey Tumblr, please I need this man found immediately he's a pervert who's been sending offensive photos to my 14 year old niece and now he's blocked all means reachable to him and still on the loose on the streets, imagine it was your child.

+1 (971) 408-1793 Let's call his ass and make sure we get him.

Let's work together to find this pervert please 🙏

outside of the obvious reasons why the hollanov relationship reveal must be crazy to shane’s parents, it’s gotta be wild to them that their shy, awkward kid is dating the league slut. their kid, who cannot even say the word “sex” without blushing, has been fucking a man whose sexual reputation is a topic of conversation. for a decade. they are in fact on a sexcation together. if you want to see them, you need to text them that you’re on your way there, because even if they know you’re coming in advance, they cannot keep their hands off of each other long enough to properly keep track of time. david hollander sees things start to heat up between them and knows instantly that they have probably fucked against every window in that extremely glass house.

idk i’m obsessed with how shane bringing ilya home is not just him coming out as gay, it’s him coming out as an experienced sex freak.

The comments on this post are 🧑‍🍳👌

Heated Rivalry ll S01EP01 Updated version of these two gifsets: 1, 2

See, Ilya lasts for 2 seconds too! Justice for Shane!

What I’m getting from this is how Ilya’s guiding Shane’s head, not forcing it up and down. Rubbing his hair more than anything. So Shane only needs to focus on the whole suction-teeth-gag-reflex thing.

Then he physically removes Shane from the “danger zone” before he comes. So there’s not even a little bit of trauma of getting come on his face or in his mouth.

EVERYONE’S FIRST TIME SHOULD BE LIKE THIS.

Ok but this genuinely warms my heart as a gay man myself seeing three straight guys so invested in watching HR that they’re having full on crashouts during the finale of season 1. Like, I can literally feel the solidarity radiating from my screen when they looked mortified that the main characters were outed in this scene before they were ready to say anything.

Jacob Tierney, we need to have a little talk about how you gave Scott and Kip sunlight and GAVE SHANE AND ILYA MOONLIGHT.

The Moonlight Sonata? My Moon My Man?? Just as shining and beautiful but not in the public eye, quieter and softer and more hidden, and also visible BECAUSE OF THE SUN. I'm freaking out about this ever since my friend pointed it out and you all need to be freaking out about it with me.

I listened to the whole empty netters podcast about heated rivalry and it was… delightful. I loved how engaged they were with the show and how just not homophobic they were. Some of my favorite moments below.

1. One of the guys had no idea it was a gay show until the shower scene. He was like… huh are they…? Oh!

2. One of them was so taken by the idea of lifting a sex partner up and asking if they could fuck them. He even asked if the other guys thought that would work on women. (Yeah it would)

3. A full conversation about how fucking cool it would be to have the option to be verse in the bedroom (“dude you just get in there and it’s different every time”)

4. They analyzed every sex scene like it was hockey, with play by plays

5. One of them was genuinely hoping for an Ilya/shane/Svetlana threesome and remained a big fan of her throughout the series.

6. After the hotel scene in Florida in Episode 5 one of them said “I think we deserved to see that fuck” and another said, “dude that was a special and emotional fuck, that was just for them. The fact that you think we deserved to see it means you didn’t understand them.”

7. They were genuinely upset when David saw Shane and Ilya kissing. “I thought this wasn’t that kind of show!” They were all yelling for like five minutes. “David this isnt you! No!”

8. How taken they were by Ilya. One of them saying “I think I am in love with Ilya Rosanov” (real)

Anyways this was fun. Consider me a fan of them now and I’m looking forward to their Olympic coverage.

Doing my second re-listen. The play-by-plays kill me, but the RESPECT? The EMOTIONS? 🧑‍🍳 👌

My fave is Sean the quiet Irishman. His takes on the cinematography and subtext are A+. I’m low-key crushing.
