Screencap redraw (without the background) because I just loved how beautiful my son looked here. Added dimples and blushies. Dimples make everything better.
Anyways yeah, I’ve been seeing JJ getting a lot of hate on tumblr and not nearly enough love, so here are some cute headcanons for the rest of my peeps who love him as much as I do:
JJ is a big believer in “fake it til you make it.” He used to have lots of self-esteem issues when he was younger. But now that he’s so famous, now that he’s a role model to so many young Canadians, he knows he can’t afford not to love himself. He needs to set a good example.
Coming from an extremely lgbt+ supportive family (and country), and being a part of the lgbt+ community himself, he always feels anxious and out-of-place whenever he visits Russia for competitions, so he covers it up by being especially obnoxious and over the top.
Back on his home turf, he’s a lot more relaxed (but still a bit obnoxious) and more like your stereotypical Canadian. He says sorry when he bumps into you, he’ll hold the door for you even if you’re still five feet away, he’ll help little old ladies cross the street, and he’ll drink iced capps no matter how fucking cold it is outside.
He learned to skate almost as soon as he could walk, and he’s always loved it. His parents got him into hockey as a child, and he played on a team for several years. Until one day he discovered figure skating. And he never looked back. He’s still pretty decent at hockey, and he plays with his friends sometimes, but figure skating is where his true passion lies.
He hates being outside of Canada in February and will try to avoid it at all costs. If he absolutely has to, he will fly back on the weekends or whenever he has a chance, just so that he can take part in Roll up the Rim.
He probably has his family/friends send him Tims instant coffee or hot chocolate mix and will binge on timbits and nutella-filled shortbread cookies as soon as he touches down on home soil.
He loves wearing big, comfy, knit sweaters that hang past his thighs because it makes him feel smol and cute.
He has three big doggos: a husky, a german shepherd, and an afghan hound. They attack him with kisses and snuggles as soon as he walks in the door, especially when he’s been away for more than a few days. They follow him everywhere and fall asleep on him, and whenever he tries to leave the house to run errands or something, they whine so pitifully at him that he ends up taking them with him.
He still lives at home, and isn’t planning on moving out any time soon because he’s completely crazy about his parents and he adores his younger siblings with all his heart and he loves coming home to a warm, cozy house full of laughter and the people he loves most in the world.
mY TABLET FROZE ON THIS PIC FOR A FEW SECONDS AND I SCREAMED
Anti!
“Make no mistake. I am 100% committed to being there for you guys. Thank you guys so much for being there for me.”
Creepshot bae took Fml
This is the most Canadian thing I've ever seen
Fully Functional and Driveable Truck Made of Ice
A Canadian ice sculpture company called Iceculture took on an incredible challenge recently. The result is pretty much unbelievable.
Canadian Tire, a battery company, wanted to showcase just how well their batteries hold up in the cold. The best way to do that? Build an 11,000+ pound, fully functional and driveable ice truck. Every part of the truck that is not absolutely necessary for driving is made of ice.

One of my friends had their account send out a mass of “BAIDU” links to everyone. I accidentally clicked it, but I have a mac, just installed updates, and I had adblocker, so I think I avoided any of the malware. I googled it, and it’s a mass hack happening across skype, so please be careful.
DO NOT CLICK ANY LINKS FROM YOUR FRIENDS THAT ARE FOR THE SITE BAIDU
I’ve had two different Skype friends send me the link. Please be vigilant!
Very serious mass hacking!!
LGBT community: I’m voting for Hillary tomorrow, if Trump wins, we’ll all die.
African Americans and the BLM movement: I’m voting for Hillary tomorrow, if Trump wins, we’ll all die.
Muslims: I’m voting for Hillary tomorrow, if Trump wins, we’ll all die.
Hispanics: I’m voting for Hillary tomorrow, if Trump wins, we’ll all get deported/die.
Women: I’m voting for Hillary tomorrow, if Trump wins, we lose our voice in this country, and our choices over our own bodies.
Folks watching this shitshow from other countries: You should vote for Hillary, if Trump wins, you’ll all die, and he WILL wage war on us all, so we will too.
ACTUAL REPUBLICAN LEADERS AND POLITICIANS: I voted for Hillary, if Trump wins, America will die.
Confederate Flag waving hick holding a gun, wearing a “Make America Great Again!” trucker cap and brandishing an “All Lives Matter” sign: Okay, but…the emails???
The oldest trees often bear the sweetest fruit.
These are my doggos
