Love this guy

Jon Moxley now you must solve the riddle of Toru Yano.

Dawg, Burmese food is fucking phenomenal.

They make bank hold music that sounds like “Fake Empire” now?

Gotta keep the torch lit.

listening to an audiobook of the novel Mark Frost wrote as the lead-in to The Return and it’s just kinda nice to hear Coop recount the whole-ass tale of the series.

It is truly astonishing how much more hostile the airport experience gets between trips that require me to fly.

Listening to fantasy/doom metal on the airplane (some band called Castle Rat) and think that’s a trail I should track further down.

All of Ernie Bushmiller’s animals rule but I think his pig is particularly charming.

Lot of interesting reverb at the Raleigh airport this morning.

“We asked Claude if the story we published had been generated via AI” is an exceptionally funny bit, props to Granta.

"Long Live Conrad!" 31 remembrances of the legendary @first-avenue.com stage manager Conrad Sverkerson from Jeff Tweedy, @themountaingoats.bsky.social, Alan Sparhawk, @beachhouseband.bsky.social, Mason Jennings, Fancy Ray, and two dozen colleagues and loved ones. racketmn.com/long-live-co...

🚨ANNOUNCING🚨 The Patron Saints of Sick Sons of Bitches, a new podcast from @colettearrand.bsky.social and @ascaredwhale.bsky.social. . Each episode, Colette & Orchid will build a Greatest Wrestler Ever case for a randomly drawn wrestler. First episode coming soon!

this is fucking sick are you kidding me

There are few things about wrestling that bring me more joy than bullshitting about it with friends, so doing a podcast with @ascaredwhale.bsky.social, who I e known and loved and respected for years, is gonna be a hell of a time.

I hate this country so fuckin much man

It was bound to happen eventually, the marketshare for paid newsletter subscriptions is a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of what existed for old models, but newsletter bundles feel like such an inelegant way of finding our way back to the blog.

In anticipation of our upcoming shows in Brazil & Argentina, made this lil playlist of some faves from 🇧🇷 & 🇦🇷 for Radio L'Envie! www.mixcloud.com/RadioLenvie/

I wanted to write about one match and wound up writing about three. All of them whip. Watch every Sasaki/Takayama match, imo.

I know it’s because the show and everything that spun out from it has sucked since season two but it’s still kinda wild that all I see about Baby Yoda is some combination of hatred and stickers applied to minivans in 2019.

GET IN

Really setting myself up for pain in saying that the WarGames match were covering this month is my favorite. Big run of Important to Colette matches, though. Expect essays to be Heightened accordingly.

THEY’RE FIGHTING! @josephweirdness.bsky.social and @colettearrand.bsky.social do not agree on the I Quit match between Jon Moxley and Jimmy Jacobs but have to figure out its place in wrestling history regardless. 🤼 www.bigeggwrestling.com/joseph-and-c...

OMG the art on this one! April 12, 1976 at the El Paso Coliseum, El Paso, Texas

Today, a youth pastor overheard me talking to Emmett about Hard Boiled and interjected himself to ask if I’ve ever heard of a movie called Face/Off. liking movies is very hard sometimes.

The thing I’m doing where I review every match that ever happened on WCW Monday Nitro is very fun and can be unlocked for a mere $20/yr. There are 158 match reviews and a lot of strange theories about wrestling and culture. A feast.

The WCW MONDAY NITRO MASTERLIST is back with a new top five match and some baseless speculation on the Internet search histories of American millennials. www.bigeggwrestling.com/if-you-grew-...

“We are once again trying to enumerate the number of hoes Charlie Brown had” is the tweet equivalent of a coffee shop cover of “Bitches Ain’t Shit”

Watching Gene and BIG ROG explain how much of a revolution letterboxing & the criterion collection laserdiscs were. They’re using clips from a VHS print of blade runner and the criterion laserdisc. Really good criticism, using the strength of the medium they’re on to demonstrate their point.

Stoked to be at the point in my sobriety (nine years as of three days ago? wild!) that I can deglaze a pan with some wine and not lose a weekend, because deglazing a pan with wine is one of the great culinary tricks.

dawg you’ve got to expand the brackets if you’re gonna make the finals and outcome this obvious.

I remember feeling like I’d pulled off the heist of the fucking century the day I was prescribed hormones. It was a July day in Georgia and the closest clinic to me was in Atlanta, my Honda Civic had a busted AC and the traffic was absolutely brutal.

Went to the David Byrne show and wept for two hours.
