not disagreeing with you - I find performative “wrestle drama” absolutely, mind numbingly pointless. my preference is to participate in (and ocassionally watch) unscripted combat sport.

however… I have trained competitive martial arts for decades (muay thai, bjj, others) and most of these “wrestling” participants are pretty skilled athletes. it takes training to turn combinations of techniques designed to injure into something reasonably harmless. there is a pretty fine line separating sparring from a fight.

I know you know this, but its still useful to remember that these players are actors as well as athletes and that can obviously be pretty inviting for a lot of viewers.

gotta love the not so subtle use of red shipping containers in many of these thumbnails. perfect!

to be fair, perhaps we are not in the worst of all multiverses. I would say my heart goes out to him, but… you know.

still hopeful that, if trumps idiocy does not directly blow us all to hell, an economic downturn may give us another COVID style environmental breather. silver linings and all that.

elbows up, my friend. elbows up!

old info? have things flipped?

we seem to like it dirty.

[…]our refineries were designed to process oil coming from Mexico and Venezuela. “And a lot of that tends to be relatively heavy and relatively high in sulfur,”

based on proven reserves it looks like venezuela is gonna get canada’d harder than usual.

good observation. wonder how texas and louisiana “drill baby drillers” are doin’ right now…
