Everyone accidentally following me for the first time on here
If anyone has any Leafs/hockey/personal/whatever questions that I can answer, I'm all ears for the next couple of hours
May save some of the ones that can be expanded on further for some blog posts, since I've been lagging on that lately. But will reply to the shorter ones

Literal dark ages stuff
Under-the-weather TikTokers are slicing raw potatoes and placing them in their — and their children’s — socks before bed. The theory is that the potato draws out toxins.
However, experts warn against relying on folk remedies over medical care.

No, putting a potato in your sock will not cure a cold

Hurricanes have looked like the 97 Red Wings since they showed the Leafs assistant coaches high-fiving themselves over the set play on the Nylander goal

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

not enough chatter about how frequently members fly and how attacking airport capacity directly affects them in a way that cutting SNAP does not

Ended up next to Joe Bowen on the Go train back from the rink (to the rink for him, I guess). He definitely didn’t remember me (been a while since we’ve overlapped work wise) but he seemed to appreciate the compliment on his Notre Dame jacket so I’m still happy I said hello on my way off

Not surprised the hit didn't get anything (feels a little predatory, but by the rules, it's shoulder). Curious how Zadorov doesn't end up with an instigator on the fight, though. He's throwing punches before he even sees who he's going with. Good on McMann to hold his own, though

Was looking through old archives (we will not speak of the reasons why) last night, and re-discovered my favourite downtown photo I’ve taken over the years. Can’t for the life of me explain how the settings landed just right

Willingly flirting with a CTE diagnosis as tribute?
You can tell who feels safe in this country when you look at the demographic of the folks that go out of their way to put themselves in harm's way for shits and giggles.

I love that the Boston cop slide never got fixed and now people just willingly go down it in tribute. It's basically a national landmark at this point](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:g2p3bnbzcvcbohfpvjxfazqv/bafkreifgmt4a5hqni5tsgwtjulenppppkrtdcd3zcudnj3vu7kjgxu76ni@jpeg)

That's the plan, though I just did a gold deck with four new jokers and it didn't count it so now I'm also considering throwing my phone into a fucking lake

Most underappreciated Leaf maybe ever. Proof that the cap era has broken everyone's brains. People (not Sound, just in general) just noticing how insanely consistent he's been now because he took a sweetheart deal, but it's been there this whole time
Over the hill, washed up John Tavares has 18 points in 14 games and trails only Nylander in even strength points.
That’s in the league, not the team.

Seeing a lot of “Leafs looked way better tonight”. They took 19 shots and pounced on a couple breakdowns. Utah goaltending wasn’t helpful. Better two points than zero but that was hardly a beat down. 🤷♂️

Biggest saving graces for the Leafs this year
a) Everyone being distracted by the Jays
b) Most of the games being on streaming or side channels, partially due to a)
