Prosecutor by day, professor by night, writer by, uh, let’s go with twilight, reader and gamer when I probably should be sleeping. Highly upset at being currently stuck in this, the clearly worst timeline. Imagine Daria, but getting angrier every day.

The “states’ rights, screw the federal government, don’t tread on me, etc” party, ladies and gentlemen.

Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)

Since this pathetic waste of life thinks he’s #Tolkien, let me put this in a way he understands: “Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”

To "revel in the death of those who truly deserve it...is normal, good, and aligned with our natural and national order," Anduril co-founder Palmer Luckey wrote on X.

Some wrestling fans may understand this, but some will not. Even so…as they draw closer to a definitive “cause of death” for #RIPPAC I’m not sure I really want to know. He was such a kind soul who loved wrestling, and he family both my blood and choice. That world comes with an amount of sacrifices.

So I sincerely hope that when the results of the full toxicology are released, the lazy parts of the media and media he politicians are using to spin every event every day as proof undeniable that they are right and their opponents are won’t - even they had nothing to do with the argument itself.

If his prescribed medications had an unforeseen complication between them, say that and don’t let vapid online “influencers” control the narrative trying to portray PAC, a professional in every sense of the word and a kind, loving; and good man, as “just another wrestling death because it’s bad.”

To keep their bodies strong enough for both looking imposing and being strong, flexible, agile, athletic and conditioned for the grueling demands of their sport on their body. Many have to utilize - doctor controlled packs of steroids to promote healing and strength after injury. Many also struggle

with mental health issues and take anti-depressants and anti-anxiety meds to combat these. Any number of other afflictions can limit them - high blood pressure, repeated major surgeries and each time being told not to wrestle anymore only to go back to the thing they love and feel most at home doing

I’ve been crying and smiling for over an hour now. Modern pro wrestling is this funny, crazy family of amazing athletes and storytellers and fans - and a huge part of that is because of amazing people like PAC. We love you and we miss you. #ForeverOurBastard #AEWDynamite #TributeToPAC

And then yesterday punched us hard in the gut. Part of me still can’t accept it, can’t believe it’s real, that he’s gone, and so soon after Andy. So young. And I just hope that everyone there knows that, as people and not celebrities, you are all cherished and appreciated. And we grieve with you.9/x

So remember to tell your loved ones what they mean to you. And from my son and I, and I’m sure so many others, we love you guys and girls. We are here for you. We will miss him so much, and he will live on in your hearts and in ours. Gravity may have forgotten Ben, but we never will. #RIPPAC

We parted ways much as we had before, with him telling us he’d better see us again down the road. Whenever we would watch Dynamite or a PPV, my son would mention that we needed to make a road trip to the next one close to us, and to catch up with PAC and others who made us feel welcome. 7/x

Two days ago, we had that same conversation again - even beating ourselves up over not making the trip to All Out in Chicago, where we’d road tripped many times from Ohio to attend. We watched PAC wrestle Andrade and went to bed happy for everyone there having another great show. 8/x

He talked to us for at least 30-45 minutes - about wrestling, about life, about doing something you love for a living. At the end, we thanked him and wished him all the best, and he said we’d better see him again at another show. The following year, as it turned out, we did - and he remembered. 5/x

He smiled and greeted us like we were old friends. He’d had a few injuries and we asked how he was recovering and he was glad to be cleared and back to wrestling again. I told him that he’d been one of my favorite people to watch work since AEW started, and he seemed honestly thankful. 6/x

It was at one of those events a few years ago that we got the honor of meeting PAC. And while we both had long admired him for his incredible talent and athletic ability, I am so grateful that we got to meet him outside of that because he was genuinely one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. 3/x

I don’t ask wrestlers for pictures or autographs, because when I get to meet them I always hope to be able to show them at least for a few minutes that we genuinely appreciate them - as people, as athletes and storytellers who share a love of wrestling with us. And god that was how PAC was. 4/x

In addition to all the fantastic wrestling, we always tried to attend some other part of the weekends - side parties, interviews, stand-up shows, etc. We have had the good fortune to meet and even get to know some of the passionate men and women who love pro wrestling and help make it great. 2/x

After the amazing night that was #ALLINLONDON I take a night off and now am watching the #WWERaw replay. Within ten minutes they censor not only a man bleeding, but also the blood on the ground, I guess to avoid scaring young, impressionable parking lots watching at home.

This is followed by Jacob Fatu, one of the brighter spots on the roster despite his current role as #BloodlineRedux indentured servant, interrupting and disrespecting the #WomensICTitle match and shoving the podium with the title to the ground. Like…fuck, man. So much talent in this company, but…ugh

Ken Burns had the Civil War. The History Channel had WWII (and ironically a bunch of alien conspiracy shit that turned out to be pretty accurate). Certain eras of American history are perfectly captured by some documentaries. This one? Mystery Science Theater 3000 presents: 21st Century American’t

Me and my new coworkers discussing why I left my old office: “Dude, it’s pretty deep red down there - doesn’t seem like that’d be you.” “Oh, it wasn’t. I’m definitely further left than anyone else was down there.” “How much further left?” “…viva la revolución”

I miss #MainEvent Jey Uso. I’m sad that after all the amazing work he did and the mountain he climbed in #WWE, he’s now just switched roles with Solo Sikoa (and that’s not a knock on Solo who is great in his own right), or worse just pretending none of it ever happened. That sucks.

Honestly just the first half of that sentence is completely fucking wild. Just for a second, imagine the reaction - the sheer outrage - if any Democrat in the last 40 years had done anything like that. Ever. Instance career ender.

AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter. And I think today was an important turning point

I’ve loved pro wrestling for almost 40 years now. So this comes from a place of love. Last week’s #AEWDynamite with Chaos in Canada between United Empire and Deathriders sold me #AEWDynasty on Sunday. Dynasty has me excited for Dynamite in a couple days. That is excellent build and booking.

Then just give those two men - with decades of history and emotion between them - free rein to make it a classic setup and match. But no - it had to become “meta.” And I am now supposed to think heel Pat McAfee gives a damn about getting fans lower ticket prices. I do not. Why did this happen?

I may very well watch. I’ve been privileged to have met some of the men and women on the cards and I genuinely want to see them on the biggest stage doing what they love and are made to do. But that’s the only draw really and that’s not going to sell the average viewer.

#Wrestlemania - which was practically the Super Bowl in my family for all these years - I’m so…sad that I’m not more excited. CM Punk’s promo last week helped a bit, but mostly I’m just so disappointed in what they’ve done with Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton. All you had to do was announce the match.

Turns out after hearing about the opioid crisis for decades, the most abused drug in America is Republican copium. Yikes. That’s tough to quit. You gotta admit you have a problem first. And second you gotta admit that the orange chucklefuck you voted three times for IS THAT PROBLEM.

The one and only change I would nitpick about on the go-home #AEWDynamite before #AEWDynasty was I would have reversed the last two segments. I know it’s the cliche of having the world title match promo close it, but there was zero chance MJF and Omega promo battle follows #UnitedEmpire #DeathRiders
