Hook has generally kept a straight face on camera at all times, even when he was partnering with Danhausen. Took five seconds of Eddie to stop that streak. #AEW

I'm taking a wait and see approach on Kimmel's return. Disney's language implies they don't expect him to say anything particularly harsh, and even if he does, the show doesn't air live.

Apparently all the talk about The Rapture happening tomorrow is about some Christian myth and not a new special edition release of Blondie's "Autoamerican," and that's sad.

Like of course the tease is blatantly for OC, but what if it's El Clon, and Kyle was just like, "I saw that video and thought we should call him up and ask him to conglom with us?"

The Charlie Kirk funeral looked to me like a Nazi hate rally. Prove me wrong.

Wake up babe, new Ecclesiastes 3 just dropped.

Arrested for sitting while Black.

Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat? Bryan "American Dragon" Danielson? Puff? Toothless? Spyro? Or is this actually a stealth Dragonette concert that Miller's announcing?

Catching up on #ROH, and Lee Johnson has managed to be a part of tag teams with the two worst names ever: Swirl and LEEJ.

Say what you will about Trump, but not many people can make crowds walk out of a funeral.

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

Low-key favorite bit from #AEWAllOut: Harley trying to eat a thumbtack, Roddy stopping her, and then Harley going right back to it.

If you are a business bigger than "one person selling stuff out of their garage" and you're using Shopify and their shop app as your only payment method, you actively hate your customers. No company makes things harder on end-users and causes as many lost sales.

I'm assuming that at Kirk's memorial, instead of "Amazing Grace," the crowd will sing their preferred hymn, "Jews Will Not Replace Us."

Cleaning out old papers, and found a paper I wrote freshman year of college (Fall of 1990) for Randy Blazak's Sociology 101 class. I got a 99. Suspect I probably don't need to hang on to this any longer.

Bobby Bare, who wrote "Drop Kick me, Jesus (Through the Goalposts of Life)" remains alive.

Things I loved about Stat's win last night: - Pinning Toni, not one of the other two. - Winning cleanly. - Not joining the Death Riders. - Not turning on Harley after. Things I didn't: - The match was too short. #AEWAllOut

Hangman Page just really wanted to talk about his garden at the media scrum 😂

Cool who paid for the trip?

During the match, Bandido told Brody King, "YOU GIVE ME THE LADDER". Brody says "Okay..." and then Brodido says "this is going to be fucking awesome." And then he did a moonsault while holding a ladder. This happened DURING THE MATCH. #AEWALLOUT

AEW: We have arson, attempted murder, dinosaurs, black and white hollywood actresses, carpenters, blacksmiths, spiders, hardware stores, The Hallways of The Shining, hot dogs, holograms, Mad Kings, glittery masks, cowboys, icons, and a puppet master cat woman. AEW IS FOR THE SICKOS

So since Stat didn't turn heel or join the Death Riders (thank god), Marina would be a hell of a first feud title defense. #AEWAllOut

Was worried about Riho after her recent matches, but she's bringing it today (and Mercedes, of course, continues to bring it -- that meteora off the announce desk was fantastic). #AEWAllIn

Jesus fuck. Tweets blocking the screen on a fucking PPV? Fuck that on so many levels. #AEWAllOut.

Commercials during a PPV pre-show should be criminal. Cutting away just as the staple gun gets brought out doubly so. #AEWAllOut

Daddy Magic's going to be the first person at this show to bleed, isn't he? #AEWAllOut

Happy Batman Day (secular)!

Good piece by @jasonzinoman.bsky.social on the cravenness of much of the current comedy scene.

Reminder that Disney also owns Marvel Comics, not just the MCU, so yeah, if you're still grabbing weekly floppies from them, you're supporting their fascism. Simone, Wilson, Segura, all have actual novels you can buy if you want them to get royalties (as well as non-Marvel graphic novels).

I hate telling this story, but when tear gas is in the news... telling always feels importantm Tear gas is an abortifacient. When I was tear gassed, we were trying for a baby. The following day, I bled in a way I never have before. Like no period of my life before or since. Horror movie stuff.

There were 58 Dems in the house who at least showed some backbone, unlike their Senate colleagues. Good for @aoc.bsky.social. Disappointed in my own congresswoman, @whipkclark.bsky.social, for voting yea in support of scum.

I love every second of this.

Jesus fuck. I hope there's no restriction on the pharmacist prafacing this with "I have to read you this utter bullshit" and ending with "so, just a reminder that everything I read out loud was a lie."

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

What the everloving fuck, @warren.senate.gov and @edmarkey.bsky.social? You're now on record saying Kirk was "respectful" and talking about a commitment to civil discussion in his name while the Republicans are literally using it to justify stat censorship?

If you gave me 500 guesses about who'd remake this, I still would not have gotten this correct.

My favorite crime author and my favorite novel of the 20th century. The Reese's Peanut Butter Cup of literary trivia.

Pretty sure Bret Hart's got some thoughts on the "the biggest deception in WWE history."

Just saw a Hershey's ad with folks making s'mores in the oven, and just, no. You need to impale a marshmallow on a stick of dubious origin, then hold it over an open campfire until it's flaming, then stick that beautifully blackened marshmallow and some chocolate between two graham crackers.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

It seems that ABC execs do a great job of making sure their phone numbers aren't easily found online. But you know what number ABC publicizes? Their news tips line: (818) 460-7477 Seems like "major network colludes with fascists and yanks Jimmy Kimmel offline" is a newsworthy tip.

Pal shared this on FB and —

If a Democratic governor talks about punching people in the mouth, he is obviously filled with insatiable bloodlust. If a Republican president talks about punching people in the mouth, you’re the violent one for thinking he was being serious.

This was after Colbert was canceled. Which was two months ago.

Same network, even. But hey, at least Bill doesn't have to worry about a repeat for himself, given all the public mourning he's done for Charlie.

The Kimmel cancellation reminded me of the final paragraphs of the essay I wrote about Trump, TV and humor back in 2017:

The Free Speech President has now pulled two of the three major late night hosts off the air through threats and intimidation because of their jokes. Obviously I’m behind Jimmy Kimmel 100% in the face of this fascist garbage. Speech against this admin isn’t just being chilled, they’re freezing it.

"For instance: I made sure women had choices and options. They could-uh- be a blonde mean girl. Or they could be-uh-Harley Quinn. That is a record-breaking, gate-shattering double the amount of the previous creative team. Who did nothing wrong, to be clear. Absolutely-uh-nothing."
