Received some unexpected news today: My cancer is in complete remission as of today! Thank you to everyone that has supported me through this time, but I’m not done yet. I most likely have two more rounds of chemo to go. Time for things to get back to normal!

Unpaid internships often prevent middle-class, underprivileged and poor writers specifically from getting opportunities. Many people who already don’t have the money aren’t going to work for free. W/the lack of opportunities in journalism, I don’t blame them for going elsewhere.

IMHO Marisa is one of the forces holding back women’s hockey and hockey in general. No one but the old guard is good enough. Rarely open to new people, new ideas, new fans or anything short of absolute ideological perfection. In a nutshell, not inclusive. The irony.
