Decided to do a review since I watched #tnaboundforglory instead of working on the weekly ranking video. Got the base for my thumbnail ready where I give two explanations for how it's the true number two pro wrestling company in the US

Yay! Now fingers crossed the live post sourcing for TV can come from here too

The serious answer is more than 2 women's matches on the main card. The silly answer is letting Bryan and Nigel call the show together and bicker the entire time.

Pulled it up on maps and was stunned how large the state of Indiana is, let's just say other things are closer that we didn't expect

Honestly a pretty formative Pitchfork staff memory for me was when D'Angelo returned and started playing shows. I probably watched him cover "Space Oddity" 50 times when it happened. Black Messiah is a masterpiece. His cover of "Sometimes It Snows in April" still makes me cry. We didn't deserve him.

I'm perfectly willing to have nuanced, reasonable discussion. But it's a two way street and I have no problem brushing aside trash

Changing my belief system to "this is the hill I'll kill you on"

GrapTops @graptops.bsky.social · 19h

No, someone asking what time the PPV is to see if they need to call off work does not deserve a dignified response

Quote posts disabled? Go fuck yourself and I'm not alt texting that. But this for games as well and movies over 2 hours, don't feel beholden to finish.

I've been called rude for saying "no thank you", so all I see is another reply limiting coward. Mute and move on. Come one, come all, these places are equal parts knowledge sharing and public shitpost

The current AEW marketing team has got to go. You should be scheduling Media all the damn time, not waiting until they're on a certain market that week of the show to do Media for local TV or Radio. YOU CAN DO VIDEO CALLS WEEKS BEFORE THE MARKET GETS THE SHOWS. Then you can do in person the week of.

I really don’t care about ticket sales or ratings. This right here is why AEW will always be superior to wwe and whoever else. TK is the man

tony khan visited kota ibushi in the hospital and gave him a handwritten letter! kota posted it on instagram. mr. kota ibushi and the rest of this letter is so sweet. 😭

A letter from Tony Khan to Kota that says “you + your hard work.
I wish you all the best in your recovery.
Everyone in AEW respects you so much.
Thank you, God bless you, Mr. Kota Ibushi!
Best,
Tony Khan”

If I never hear anyone spinning a fucking wheel to make a shitting deal it'll be too goddamn soon

GrapTops @graptops.bsky.social · 1d

Look I get it's bad form to miss already, but as I edit it feels pointless with 3 hours of TV coming up. It's going to be combined with the PPV preview that the script kept creeping to be. Is it professional? No, but I never claimed to be

It's not jist that Dustin apparently has dogshit political views. He is openly bragging about people being terrorized in the streets. That's more than political difference. It's absolute fucking malice.

You would think that since I control the deadlines they would be more manageable. Nope, down to the last minute just like *many* years ago (I had a number but it bums me out a little)

Don't get me wrong...I always pretty much knew Dustin had awful politics, and preferred to keep what I knew about them limited. But, there it is. - Would be VERY interested to know which parts he thinks are "great". 🤼

Media saying "Biden is bad at politics because we didn't cover all the good stuff he did" is really not how this should work. But it sure does explain how we got here.

Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan.bsky.social · 1d

The hostage release is a reminder of how bad the Dems are at politics. Not only did Biden refuse to force this deal on Netanyahu & thereby help Harris win, but most people aren’t even aware that Biden got way more Israeli hostages (over 100) released with his 2023 ceasefire than Trump did with his.
