A parent told me of a conversation their child had with another worker. The advice was to keep politics away from their professional social media. I’m aware as a wrestling fan there’s a certain risk about putting your ass out there and potentially alienating part of your audience…

How ICE agents view a parking lot, more or less:

AEW gets the most attention in my feed, but remember to appreciate the indie talent that shows out. Lara, @zekemercer.bsky.social, the CREEPS ( @andeyripley.bsky.social and @irvingwestphd.bsky.social ). All good people.

ICE shot and killed an American citizen today

At this point in life I’m extremely cautious about posting my thoughts in the heat of the moment. But needless to say I’m fucking angry right now.

WWE benefits from Saudi corruption. But this also gives me a chance to mention Boyle’s Thirty Acres. A wooden stadium seating 90,000 for one fight! It stood for six years.

Got new sensors for my insulin pump. These continuous glucose monitors transmit directly to my pump and they’re smaller than a quarter in circumference. My old CGM was on the fritz for a month. It feels good to have my blood sugar regularly in range again.

My daughter: “Do I have daddy issues? No, I have a dad that has issues.”

Never met @thehypemanalex.bsky.social personally but he graciously provided tickets when AEW came to wilkes-barre. Wishing him the best.

Musing on Venezuela. It might be a useful exercise to think about what if it happened here. I mean really think through it. Trump is deeply unpopular and many would celebrate no doubt. But what comes next. A lot would depend on what the invading power imposes. What would that be? JD Vance following

Fuck it. I’m going to throw Vichy Venezuela into the world and see if it sticks.

Jesus Christ I’m tired

Introduce you with what almost killed you. My pancreas just up and quit on me!

Gonna laugh so hard when the treasury gets converted to gift cards.

A very happy birthday to @vedascott.bsky.social!

A deep cut here. @joesposto.bsky.social has been talking up the idea of AEW at the Kingston Armory. Nearly a hundred years ago the Armory hosted a Jim Londos championship match!

Now accepting 2026 bookings LFGGGG 🥳🥳🥳 passport ready, possibly willing to travel but won't like it

I’ve been digging into Donkey Kong Bananza. It really is a game that will eat up weeks of your life.

Made it to Sokols (somehow)! Gonna hang out with @thelvac.bsky.social tonight 🙂

I don’t have Vegas money. I barely have Atlantic City money. But if YOU have Vegas money and you’re a promoter, you should book Creeps on Wrestlemania weekend. It’s like booking a Seth Rollins who isn’t hurt and doesn’t own a cybertruck.

If Dave Seville will yell at a chipmunk about his vocals and leave it on the release, how do you think he treats his wife behind closed doors?

Watched a Muppet Christmas Carol. Half the movie when I saw Michael Caine I saw an older Jeremy Allen White. Anyone else see the resemblance?

Merry Christmas everyone! And bad news to Rex Banner, I got a new hat!

🎅🏻👀 #CalvinandHobbes #Christmas

Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place. Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

@kimspirit.bsky.social happy birthday! Hope you get everything you’ve ever dreamed of

Jake Paul is fighting not to get knocked out. Pathetic.

Eight rounds. The ladies boxed twelve.

I do have a boxing interest and I have a Netflix subscription. Tuning into the Joshua/Paul event and my goodness that ring is huge.

Street Fighter 2 Tekken 3 WWF Wrestlemania: the Arcade Game Mortal Kombat

Funny how I managed to watch that many Phillies games in a blackout area 🤷‍♂️

The Big Gal (@ericawrestles.bsky.social) checking in at number 71! Also love for the Runway (@tylerklein.bsky.social @calvincouture.bsky.social) and equally fashionable @larafrazier.bsky.social

This is way overshadowed, but Anthony Geary passed yesterday. Best known for General Hospital but us Weird Al fans know him from UHF.

CREEPS at numbers 97 and 98! Great to see @zekemercer.bsky.social, Paris Sahara on the list as well.

I’ve met a few of these folks!

Shoutout to @haughtjr.bsky.social coming in on this list. He’s the bizarro world version of Bulldog Brower. That’s high praise. Also s/o to Bluesky-less Nahir Robles. She has a nice butt but you all should keep an eye on her because she’s a good, intelligent person who kicks ass.

Keeping an eye on @swoprowrestling.bsky.social’s cage

Easiest way to find a good indie wrestling promotion is to see who is booking these wrestlers. #indiewrestling #wrestlesky

Always good to hear some Tori Amos ❤️ #xpncountdown

Common People is what I like from a cover song. Something that took a BIG swing. #xpncountdown

Sea of Love by Cat Power was our wedding song. #xpncountdown Don’t have high hopes for Ballad of a Thin Man but you all should listen to her version.

Pedantic point. If the Star Spangled Banner is covered without lyrics, is the original artist really Francis Scott Key? #xpncountdown

Me right now (well, mostly when Dave Matthews was on) #xpncountdown

“Did any instrumentals make the list?” Spoiler alert: the entire top 50 are all orchestras covering Beethoven’s 9th. #xpncountdown

Ok, I love Travis’ cover of Baby One More Time. Glad I’m not the only one. #xpncountdown

I love Nina Simone. She has about twelve songs in his discography that aren’t covers. Among the rest, I’m not sure Here Comes the Sun is even in her top 25. #xpncountdown

First birthday since my Facebook account got deactivated. Curious to see how well it’s actually remembered by my family 😄

Good news for the Philly wrestling crowd. The family and I got tickets for @powerprolucha.bsky.social next month! Looking forward to seeing you all there.

XPN needs a countdown for originals you never hear that are actually bangers. Dionne Warwick’s I Say a Little Prayer, Otis Redding’s Hard To Handle, etc. #xpncountdown

More Cat Power ❤️ #xpncountdown
