You ever have something stupid in your head and you can't get it out without doing a bad photoshop?

What would you have fed the Triceratopses? Would they be for riding, or do they give milk? I'm not up on the paleontology.

That is a pain I know too well. I've got a novella and a couple half novels on my hard drive that just aren't THERE yet. One day we'll overcome that.

Literally on my desk as we talk, my friend.

WT holds up a Power Ranger Morpher with the Triceratops coin slotted in.

That happens. Do you enjoy what do you instead? Not just work, the other stuff, too.

No, see, that's the danger of this. like, my comic was never published by a major, but I did get published and it was stocked in a comic shop. I made it!

Don't nitpick that it isn't EVERYTHING, be proud of what you accomplished. You're a journalist like you dreamed!

That's also true. I'm glad that, even if it's not where they money comes from, you get to live a BUNCH of your dreams.

Ghoul Ol' WT @keyguardactive.bsky.social · 44m

Well, sure, we all get a job or two. But you made it! You gave your first dream a shot and hated it, which, mad respect for not just muscling through. And then you chased the second one and got it! Must be pretty cool to know teenage you would be proud of adult you.

And you still got your dogs, so you're doing alright in the "hanging out with animals" department.

For real though, right after they arrested me, I might lie about knowing the Supreme Chancellor of Anonymous or whatever just because I don't actually know anything useful they could torture out of me, and my sense of "time and place" isn't well developed.

I got that one, too. But I think the arguing was just an early sign of the autism. "Here is why I did what I did, so you see, logically, there's no reason to punish me, because I lacked intent to misbehave."

I had a brief Space Kid faze, but that was one of the things that never really sparked joy for me. Do you ever wonder what might have been?

I feel like Journalist is less fun than it looks in media.

When did you decide against the path of animals? Just something that didn't seem possible?

Well, if we're counting "not technically a job" I wanted to be a Ghostbuster first. I briefly considered becoming one of those Urban Ghost Hunters and I was pricing EMF equipment, but I just... don't actually believe in ghosts.

I wanted to be a teacher. Even went to a little bit of college for it! But to get the degree, even for 1st grade, they wanted me to learn calculus. So I gave up and got a job. Series of jobs, really, until I eventually landed at the call center. Where I now teach training courses. So, close enough.

Friends, let me ask: What did you want to be when you grew up? Did it happen? When did you change your mind?

Having friends when they were in short supply.
Made my old webcomic.
Laughed a great deal.
Shared my cat, daily, with 20k people.

Lots of great things happened to me because of Social Media.

Has anything great happened in your life because of social media?

Ghoul Ol' WT @keyguardactive.bsky.social · 12h

This is it. The most OG Wrestlesky coded post ever made. 🤼‍♂️

Alice Crowell, Bay Bay! @formertwink.bsky.social · 13h

Most wrestling feuds, honestly, would be solved fairly quickly if everybody just kissed about it. 🤼‍♂️

Well, obviously, but I just mean a North American Based Promotion is presenting all these guys. We could have gotten some World of Sport stuff in the past, but over here? Not until now.

Hates Enzo Amore, checks out.

Oh, no, Kyle is great, too. AEW and ROH have just SO MANY great pure style wrestlers.

...Is this the best era or American pro wrestling?

We were posting the same thought at the same time, because that match would RULE.

If someone wanted to make a case that PAC is the best pure wrestler on the AEW roster, I'd have a hard time arguing. I think he and TAIGASTYLE could have a match that would bring about world peace. 🤼
