A'ja Wilson is at this point padding her stats as the greatest woman to ever pick up a basketball. Congratulations to the forever MVP on another title.

I'm a reasonable man, I'm willing to forgive and forget what conservatives are doing to our country. Once they find a conscience and blow their fucking brains out we'll call it even

More Samoa Joes, Kyle O'Reillys and PACs. Less fake action movie bullshit and "comedy" that was barely cute 3 months ago when they started doing it

While walking downtown Birmingham yesterday on a sightseeing tour, I got to pass by the Boutwell auditorium and had to do everything in my power to not take over the tour with stories of Gulas and Gilbert

I'm glad I'm at an age and maturity level where I allowed myself to ask for help instead of trying to be "tough" at the expense of my comfort and long-term health

It's just me with my cane looking cute and rocking a 94 J cup fit

Shout out to the accessibility crew for helping all weekend. When I hurt myself friday afternoon, I thought my weekend was over and cried in public more than I had in a very long time. Their help, and this nifty cane really gave me the experience I was hoping for, just when I thought it was over

Got to Alabama Thursday, only to find that our hotel had been sold and we no longer had a place to stay. Found another room and had to put it on a credit card so we could at least have something. Got to the festival yesterday, and I pulled a calf muscle immediately. This vacation is TESTING me

Every few years, someone passes, and I realize I massively underestimated how much impact they had or how beloved they were. I didn't realize Jane Goodall had shooters like that

Shortlist for my all time favorite matches. It's everything I love about pro wrestling, and specifically the way that era of pro wrestling felt to me

Jamie @jamiesessions.bsky.social · 9d

Joe in 05 is the best anyone has ever been at anything. Happy 20 years to what you could argue is his 5th best match that year. (Vs Necro, vs Styles, the 3 way with Styles and Daniels, the 4 way with Punk, Gibson, and Daniels) I say that not to tear down this match, but to show how deep his year was

Trevor Dame @trevordame.bsky.social · 9d

@MayorMGF Reminded me it's the 20 year anniversary for Joe vs. Kobashi. To this day still once of the craziest atmospheres I've ever seen. The rare dream match that lived up to the weeks of hype I listened to while waiting for the DVD.

Day 17 in a row, but after today, I will be en route to Alabama for Furnace Fest. 17 days is nothing compared to the 25 years I've been waiting to see Texas is the Reason.

working to dismantle important cancer research and throwing money at AI in its place is a fucking joke. when you watch stephanie get inducted into the WWE hall of fame, when you watch wrestlemania, when you buy tickets, etc you are supporting people who are publicly actively supporting a fascist.

For your viewing pleasure here is Triple H, Linda, and Stephanie all at the White House with Trump today.

Do kids get introduced to songs/bands from movie soundtracks anymore? Thinking about all the amazing music I discovered via the Singles, Crow, Angus, and Reality bites soundtracks. Juno seemed like it did this for a slightly younger demographic but does it still happen at all?

Matisyahu live at Stubbs is one of those moments where everything comes together perfectly to form something greater than the sum of its parts. A truly transcendent listening experience the first time

The democrats had a combined 12 years (8 Obama and 4 Biden) to break up Sinclair. People were hip to this stuff in the 2004 election.

Oftentimes, nerds get so fixated on an adaptation of something missing small parts. Missing that it's an overall great version of the story being told in a new medium. This take brought to you by my softened stances on the Ghost World and Scott Pilgrim movies
