‘Heated Rivalry’ actor Harrison Browne on his life as a trans athlete | CNN May 20

‘Heated Rivalry’ actor Harrison Browne on his life as a trans athlete | CNN May 20

Excerpt; When Harrison Browne was on the ice, there was only speed, instinct and the familiar rhythm of skates cutting across frozen ground.

Long before he became the first openly transgender professional hockey player and before he wrote a book, created a short film or had a supporting role in the Canadian TV series “Heated Rivalry,” Browne was simply “Brownie” in the locker room. It was a nickname that, for a time, gave him cover.

I find Harrison so inspirational and wish him nothing but the best. 🤍

HR Alphabet: A is for...

Hey team! Let's make the alphabet, Heated Rivalry style!

Submit your favorite quote, word, or thing that starts with that day's letter and/or vote for your favorite! Please limit your answers to Book 1 (Game Changer), Book 2 (Heated Rivalry), and the TV series. After the read along I might do this again and allow quotes from all of the books, with spoiler tags of course!

Because I am Shane Hollander in a different font, we do have some rules!

  • 1 quote per comment (to more easily tell which wins).
  • If a quote is commented more than once, the comment with the highest number of upvotes will be the one counted, so if "Stupid Canadian wolf bird" gets posted seven times and one comment has 24 upvotes, one 5, and the rest 1, it would get 24 upvotes for the game.
  • Upvote the comment you want to win, you can upvote as many times as you like!

Today's letter is A!

Writing Heated Rivalry (w/ Rachel Reid) [Why won’t you date me? May 15, 2026]

Author Rachel Reid (Heated Rivalry) joins Nicole to chat about the wild, viral success of her steamy queer romance novels and the hit HBO adaptation. She shares how she met her husband while performing a smelly, hockey-themed burlesque act, and the dynamic that keeps their 20-year one sided open marriage working for them. She discusses the creative process behind writing explicit romance between men, and exactly why she absolutely does not want to hear your glowing reviews of her work. Plus, Rachel opens up about navigating her recent Parkinson's diagnosis.

Automod malfunctioning

iOS and desktop dev apps malfunctioning and letting through posts that shouldn’t be essentially over ruling automod. They also seem to be triggering about fifteen times a minute. We can’t figure out what is causing it, read the rules seems to be the issue but can’t figure out what in it is causing it. Biggest issue is it letting through posts it shouldn’t for users who do not meet our karma requirement.

Picture of action history here.

Edit; spoke to the app developer and got help

Thank you
