The curse of being a dumb American who likes to tweet about Japanese professional wrestling, but rarely proofreads tweets before hitting post.

Currently watching The Queen of Villains on Netflix after learning of its existence like yesterday from a random Meltzer tweet. I don't know anything about 1980's women's Japanese professional wrestling or Dump Matsumoto, so this is already super compelling so far.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Amnesty International, interviewing migrant detainees, identifies use of the confinement box. There can be no denying it is a torture prison

The future is building a humanoid robot at great cost to replace hiring a guy to hand out water bottles, then hiring a guy to remote control the robot handing out water bottles.

No Backlog Blitz this afternoon. I'm working on getting the world's least funded, ill-prepared, and most amateurly produced best games of all time video games podcast and hobbyist-grade public access television YouTube channel launched hopefully by January 2026.

Claudio Castagnoli on notice in the most intimidating professional wrestler rankings. TJPW's Miu Watanabe just single-handedly performed a giant swing on two of her opponents at the same time.

Since they just released a trailer for a remake of the original 1980's anime classic Fist of The North Star, I'm unfortunately here to remind you about the 1995 live action remake with Malcom McDowell and Chris Penn. It's as much of a fever dream as you think it is.

I'm really happy that Deonna Purrazzo won the inaugural ROH Women’s Pure Championship, in large part due to the absolute vile bullshit and abuse she has to deal with from weird wrestling trolls online.
