One of the most interesting parallels in American life right now is WWE bending over backwards for the Saudis and Trump administration and watching their fans get gradually more uneasy with it, while AEW just grinds away and slowly grows as their talent wears Abolish ICE shirts on cable TV.
Top 3 topics on /r/SquaredCircle right now:

"WWE’s late-stage capitalist hellscape is just a sign of the times"

"Early-arriving WWE Night of Champions production employees stuck at Qatar airport"

"AEW wrestlers met some adorable kittens from the The Humane Society ahead of Collision in Kent, WA"

I am over MIB on RuPaul Drag's Race. I am fast forwarding through her manufacturer drama. All stars should be about queens with actual talent, not mean girls who bully their way to the top.

Today is Mother’s Day.

For some of you, it is a celebration of you or someone you love. If that’s you, I will raise a glass and celebrate how special today is for you.

Canadians.

Tomorrow is election day. We need a large turnout to show some people that we are a real country.

Do it for Casey and Finnegan

"Hey, I wonder what happened to all those ex-hackers who were employed by the US government."

"Oh, DOGE fired them."

"They fired the best hackers of their respective generations? I bet that never comes back to bite them in the ass."

Good job everyone.

Vote like our country depends on it.

Cause it does.

Show the Mango Mussolini that we do love our country.

there is simply no amount of child death that will move RFK to change his mind because he is a predatory narcissist who cares less about health than the gratification of his own ego
Astonishing RFK Jr interview with NBC. At 23.30 he claims pharmaceuticals are the 3rd leading cause of death in the US [wtf]. He discloses the name & medical history of the 2nd child to die of measles, implies she wasn't healthy & argues about her cause of death. @gorskon.bsky.social
Key takeaways from RFK Jr.'s interview on measles vaccine, food dyes, weight loss drugs and more
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke with CBS News in an exclusive interview. Here are some highlights.

This has been the hardest lesson I have ever learned. And when God gives me a chance to relearn it, I am reminded of how hard it is. Unlearning the culture you grew up in is really hard.

Given what day it is, maybe don't play that prank on your kids.

Parents should be the one person kids can trust implicitly. They should be the shelter in a child's storm. Pranking can backfire and leave a child hurt. Which damages the relationship between parents and children.

Why 'pranks' can harm children
Recent social media trends that involve parents "pranking" their kids for comedic effect may miss an important factor – young children may not be able to find it funny.

Trump threats open 'floodgate'...

So Canadian medical professionals are choosing not to head to the US and American medical professionals are looking to move north. Giving up huge salaries to be able to practice medicine without interference.

Nicely done, MAGA.
