My friend Travis McNeill, who is wisely no longer on social media, put together his annual @aewontv.bsky.social Blood & Guts ”Head Games“ charts for this years matches, based on the WCW Magazine chart for the 1992 War Games:

I know AEW tv is on a roll because it's got me hyped for Blood & Guts even though there hasnt been a great wargames style match anywhere in almost 20 years (in my opinion).

the only problem with young people today is that they never had to mentally negotiate the difference btwn a video game's box/booklet art and the sprites they would play as on the screen. i understood what Plato was talking about before i ever even heard of him thanks to DRAGON WARRIOR

Microsoft is a crater of filth ruled by cruel imbeciles who don’t understand basic facts about the industries they hungrily exploit.

Its executives are *deeply* stupid people who mistake their predatory ruthlessness for savvy. If they all melted in hot slag tomorrow, the world wouldn’t be worse.

God, a thousand times this.

That's the thing with dopamine being tied to task initiation - there's a set of gears that won't - CAN'T - engage in my brain, but none of my problems are with analysis.

I can be fully aware of all the necessary steps, and stressing about starting, and just... not.
10/10 take. No notes.

"There is something dreary about these crime-scene Halloweens; they feel like the burnt-out suburban hipster’s attempt to make one last stand for their own quirked-up edginess."
"There is a stage in life after we have become aware of these realities but before we often have the internal substance to treat them with the gravity they deserve. It is called adolescence." Murder-kitsch is ghoulish and immature: www.thebulwark.com/p/against-th...
Against the Crime-Scene Halloween
Bring on the spooky and screamy, creepy and kitschy decor. Just don’t treat lurid murder imagery as frivolous fun.

as we near the 48 hour period that marks my HRT and sobriety anniversaries, it's time for the post I do every year:

if you have ever—for more than six minutes, total—considered that transition and/or sobriety might improve your quality of life, you should try it. your only regret will be waiting.
