“Self-care is often a very unbeautiful thing.
It is making a spreadsheet of your debt and enforcing a morning routine and cooking yourself healthy meals and no longer just running from your problems and calling the distraction a solution.
It is often doing the ugliest thing that you have to do, like sweat through another workout or tell a toxic friend you don’t want to see them anymore or get a second job so you can have a savings account or figure out a way to accept yourself so that you’re not constantly exhausted from trying to be everything, all the time and then needing to take deliberate, mandated breaks from living to do basic things like drop some oil into a bath and read Marie Claire and turn your phone off for the day.
A world in which self-care has to be such a trendy topic is a world that is sick. Self-care should not be something we resort to because we are so absolutely exhausted that we need some reprieve from our own relentless internal pressure.
True self-care is not salt baths and chocolate cake, it is making the choice to build a life you don’t need to regularly escape from.
And that often takes doing the thing you least want to do.
It often means looking your failures and disappointments square in the eye and re-strategizing. It is not satiating your immediate desires. It is letting go. It is choosing new. It is disappointing some people. It is making sacrifices for others. It is living a way that other people won’t, so maybe you can live in a way that other people can’t.
It is letting yourself be normal. Regular. Unexceptional. It is sometimes having a dirty kitchen and deciding your ultimate goal in life isn’t going to be having abs and keeping up with your fake friends. It is deciding how much of your anxiety comes from not actualizing your latent potential, and how much comes from the way you were being trained to think before you even knew what was happening.
If you find yourself having to regularly indulge in consumer self-care, it’s because you are disconnected from actual self-care, which has very little to do with “treating yourself” and a whole lot do with parenting yourself and making choices for your long-term wellness.
It is no longer using your hectic and unreasonable life as justification for self-sabotage in the form of liquor and procrastination. It is learning how to stop trying to “fix yourself” and start trying to take care of yourself… and maybe finding that taking care lovingly attends to a lot of the problems you were trying to fix in the first place.
It means being the hero of your life, not the victim. It means rewiring what you have until your everyday life isn’t something you need therapy to recover from. It is no longer choosing a life that looks good over a life that feels good. It is giving the hell up on some goals so you can care about others. It is being honest even if that means you aren’t universally liked. It is meeting your own needs so you aren’t anxious and dependent on other people.
It is becoming the person you know you want and are meant to be. Someone who knows that salt baths and chocolate cake are ways to enjoy life – not escape from it.”

“Sid, we have a lot of memories. And my best one: when I come to Pittsburgh first time. We have dinner, me, you, Mario, and Gonch, and we first time met each other. And now, after 15 years, I want say to you congratulations on 1000th NHL games. You not Sid the Kid anymore. You old man. But it's still great leadership, great teammate. I love play with you, not against you. And I want say, you more professional hockey player I ever see. I hope one day you come to Moscow and we spend good time, me and you. And again, you amazing player. I want say, more goals for you, more points, more games, and, of course... more cups. Best wishes for your family, for you. Good luck. Your friend, Geno. And pass me puck!”

There’s a surprising lack of cabin fic in Hockey RPF, and that needs to be fixed. If Instagram etc. are to be trusted, about half the league spends their off-season fishing on a lake or stomping through the wilderness, and those stories need to be told. So, without further ado, it’s time to go Into the Woods for a cabin fic fest!
Details are on AO3 here!
Hi, I'm confused about the hockey player that do bad things, what happened? Who are we talking about?
genuinely no idea what this is in reference to but the answer is all of them
