A series of images I found on my computer labeled "Wrestling solutions."

A roof shaped ring, utilizing an incline. Probably deadly.

A full sized ring inside of a double sized ring. Why not? What do you have to lose?

A ring with vertical ring ropes, attached to an unsecured light fixture. An OSHA violation for sure.

A ring with 9 turnbuckles, instead of the customary 3. This one is fine, no one would have a problem with this one except a whiner.

i would also like to point out that this greatest living lyricist conversation is almost entirely leaving out rap so uh

that's a problem when kendrick lamar exists

Babs the Postseason Ghostseason Shark @hockeybabbler.bsky.social · 1d

just before our love got lost you said
"i am as constant as a northern star"
and i said "constantly in the darkness?
where's that at?
if you want me i'll be in the bar."

I also need to know: I am fairly middle-of-the-road on Taylor Swift but someone I know called her the Greatest Living Lyricist. She is not.

Who is yours? Either the greatest or your favorite?

so, yeah. i get that it can feel a little...iffy to be talking about sports when [gestures generally at everything].

but by that token so can talking about games or comics or art or film or books or anything that gives you joy and hope and warms your soul in this long, harsh winter of the soul.

it's a high we're all chasing. it's a way of keeping hope alive even in the bleakest of times. and, well, if this ain't the bleakest of times it sure as shit makes the bleakbuster list.

we're high on hopium. if an underdog can win, then maybe we can. maybe the world's worst ills can be overcome.

october is peak sports time

and you may be asking yourself, "the world is on fire, how can you care about a game?"

because for all the anguish we sports fans moan about, gods, nothing hits like the joy you get when your hopes pay off.

and as a sports fan, all you have is hope.
