Been on a Johnny Hammond kick lately. His mid-70s stuff is a great entry point for new listeners. By that point, he had fully embraced other genres in his wheelhouse and was firing on all cylinders with some real Funk-infused Jazz Fusion.

Garfield, you shouldn't have...

Love the "Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down" section from this 1989 issue of The Wrestler magazine. Bonus: front cover & ad for sone sweet PWI merch.

Agent Dale Cooper; Twin Peaks: The Return, Part 17

A great reminder that everyone should see 2024's Love Lies Bleeding.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing. These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

i watched the new pixar movie and felt like Ai aesthetic bc they rip of pixar so much. i will never forgive Ai for harming real art like this. It should be a crime what they did to dropping 8% yellow on top of your colors. it used to be a cool trick.

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. Silksong happened. Completely unrelated, here’s a drawing of an angry little bug.

Did Dick Vitale just say what I think he said? Tickle the WHAT? Man, the way my head just did a double take at this entire clip.

"What's the deal with the Royal Rumble? There's nothing *Royal* about it! At least if it was in Riyadh, the Royal Family would actually be there to make it Royal!"

Can't believe Charlie Kirk is never going to get to see AEW Dynamite tonight on TBS 8pm ET/5pm PT

It's so funny to me that this photo & tweet are the only real evidence that Cheeseburger USA (Yoh, Sho & Cheeseburger) were ever an actual team in Ring Of Honor. Back when Yoh & Sho were in America on excursion and billed as the Tempura Boyz.

Hiromu snuck into NOAH and stole away some Championship gold!

Paul Fall has finally come back around!

This is not a drill. Judge Wapner's Animal Court (formerly lost media) now has an official YouTube channel and has been consistently uploading full episodes.

Some of you need to stop acting like Nick & Tony Khan cash your check. I think AEW has been really good this year. WWE has mostly bored me. Last year was the exact opposite. Several years ago, NJPW was the peak of my wrestling fandom. All these promotions go through waves.

Grew up with KITH as a foundational piece of my sense of humor. My heart genuinely sank when I saw this.

Perfect weather to get outside. Go do your evening walk and enjoy this beautiful preview of Fall. Then take your favorite guy, gal, or pal to Mickey Rooney's Weene World.

I love that there's a universe where Big The Cat is the real hero of Sonic Adventure 2. But we just don't know it and only catch glimpses of him as cameos, when he's really the main character doing all the work and *everyone else* is really in *his* background.

A short history of Minnesota Fats as told by the opening FMV from the SEGA Saturn game, "Minnesota Fats: Pool Legend". Each fact and quote about Fats is crazier than the last. I love this. I also love this random JRPG music they used. What's your favorite #FatsFact?

Ya'll want some of this early 2000s LeBron candy?

The DOS Game Jam starts in less than a day! We're two participants away from 100! Will you be the one to make number go up?

Big s/o to @iamaobaker.bsky.social & @pardonmyfresh.bsky.social for this sick corduroy "Nah, Yeah" hat in the Mets colorway! 🟦🟧 Go cop yours before they are GONE! www.pardonmyfresh.com

Yes.

I kinda lost my momentum on this one. Anyway, here’s Nightmare King Grimm.

I still can't believe Abe Vigoda was number one. Dude doesn't even have a YouTube account.

There are plenty of interviews with MVP about wrestling. This one is solely about Steely Dan. SHARE & SUBSCRIBE

Love this!

Just learned that in 2022, AAA had a partnership with Marvel that included a tournament where the winner won an Iron Man arc reactor belt, and one of the wrestlers wore this sick Thanos gear.

I didn't have a PS1 until '99, so this PC version of Final Fantasy VII is the one I played. Still had four discs. But came in this very distinctly shaped box.
