@Li33aaa Speak for your own damn miserable marriage.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@Aceeiito I just smoked a bunch. Not sure.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@HawkEmDownChris True. That person was me.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@LttleGel @MegynKellyShow @megynkelly That's all people expect!

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@MegynKellyShow @megynkelly Pro skater here. Thanks, Megyn, for speaking on the awesome ice rink community! Hockey & figure skating teach life skills like commitment, working thru adversity, & sportsmanship. We're one big family our entire lives. ❤️ ⛸️

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@hell_line0 Pro skater here. She's been a skater her entire life. She's trained through periods and horrible cramps, and competed with them, too. Some athletes get depo so they don't have to deal with it at the games. Zero excuses for her poor performance.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@annamlulis Just so fucking cool. Incredibly proud of my ice rink community today.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@CoCa827C @dailyglimps24 I'm speaking as a former pro coach at MedStar in NOVA, and as a lifelong conservative and public servant: his presence there and behavior were inappropriate and unbecoming of a public servant. His 2 lives should be kept separate just like the rest of us at MedStar.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@dailyglimps24 Absolutely not.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@bsul13 @Edward41118Lisa @fasc1nate Lol yeah...which is exactly what Kurt was upset about!

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@Edward41118Lisa @fasc1nate You should read "Heavier Than Heaven," the biography of Kurt. He had a rough upbringing and existence. It's a beautiful book and it will open your heart and mind.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@ceemee1212 @yaruuda Yeah that has ice dance written all over it.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@yaruuda Former pairs skater here. I've NEVER understood dating other skaters, let alone my partner--that's way too much time together! Hockey players, on the other hand...

@Aldorayne1990 @Hanike_B @KramarenkoMari3 True story especially in figure skating.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@Ame07071988 @USFigureSkating This is a post about synchronized skating, not the ice dance event.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@USFigureSkating Make SYNCHRO an Olympic sport!

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

Dear USFS: these Olympics are proof the team event needs to go and synchronized skating put in! So disappointing to see it's still not.

[U.S. Figure Skating @USFigureSkating]

Let's hear it for our U.S. medalists in Latvia! 👏🇺🇸

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@VValterAudisio @ScottHamilton84 I wasn't surprised. It's NBC.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@heyitkb @ScottHamilton84 I'd like to know as well. A good argument is being made in that the skaters each fell in the same spot on the ice.

[Ms.Independent @IndependenceBOR]

@ScottHamilton84 Please talk to your colleagues about this team event...and the press strategy. Team event needs to be replaced by synchro, and press shouldn't be allowed until after the competition.
