Which is a bummer. I just refuse to go back over to X to see those folks because my mental health just isn't worth destroying to see their posts. I'd rather be on places I can moderate better.

They apparently don't seem to know how moderation tools on this website work, which is very concerning for their reading comprehension levels.

It's a shame that a lot of the old members of Card Twitter haven't left X and moved over here in some capacity. Used to talk to stalegum and the like a lot over there before I left, so I wonder if we'll ever see them come over here.

Been watching old Stalegum videos on YouTube lately.

I'll allow it. Once you get to a certain point with in-game interviews, you lose your mind.

Oh boy. That sounds like an easy skip, then. If you can't even riff on it enough to make it watchable, that is an oofta.

It genuinely wouldn't surprise me if they were death threats.

I've heard so many people say it's bad, but I also like bad movies, so idk if it's a good watch for people that like bad movies or if it's not even good for that.

I've seen a lot of stuff like that over here with some of the newer folks. Very odd stuff.

It does, actually. Makes you wonder what is going through the person's head trying to make that.

I have no bloody clue. It reads like a word salad to end all word salads.

I'm almost guaranteeing that a few of them have TKO shares or are getting paid under the table. I don't know for sure, but I can almost guarantee that they're doing it.

You know, now I can see why people on here aren't as big into the hashtags compared to other platforms because none of the hashtags even make a lick of sense.

Exactly. AEW got themselves into bother in the early days trying to sign everyone they could to "fix" them, only to realize that way too many of those people were just looking to springboard to WWE.

Tony smartening up with that has been a big reason for AEW's more recent uptick. Keep it that way.

Makes my hill to die on of "The PSP is the best handheld ever made" look tame and that makes me at least somewhat relieved.

Fair point. I just wish these folks would spend a little more time understanding AEW and why it works so well. It's not a perfect thing, certainly, but a lot of people clearly find joy in it, so I don't get why the media keeps misunderstanding it.

Him as a manager of that sort of stable would actually get me to care about him more. I don't think AEW needs him for that, but if WWE wanted to bring him back, that'd be a better use than having him in ring.

And if they're resentful over that...... I don't even know how to begin to explain how dumb that is.

Indeed. He's usually an auto skip for me on TV anyway, so I don't see why we need to invest all this money and time into him when there really isn't a payoff. It's like wrestling media doesn't GET why AEW works for people, almost intentionally so.

10.08.2025 19:13 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

It honestly feels like parts of wrestling media WANT a WWE monopoly again with how much they just don't understand AEW's whole thing and why it works for people.

I wanna know if any of them are getting paid under the table for this stuff or if they're doing this for free (for some reason).

I don't get why we're investing this much effort into Kross anyway. I've never really understood the hype around him and I don't think he fits AEW's current mold of only bringing people in that WANT to be there and actually add value to the company.

It still blows my mind that people defend UEFA when they make bad decisions. I saw tons of people going to bat for them over the Palace saga and I'll never understand how you can be immature enough to go to bat for a corrupt organization like UEFA. Makes you wonder if there's financial interest too.

If he played a Control deck in Magic, he could be Adam Nopeland.

I can confirm as an American that yes, there are a lot of areas that feel like stepping into a time machine, and not in a good way.

10.08.2025 09:09 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

If he was saddened by the state of the world, he'd be Adam Mopeland.

It's like these people have been brainwashed by the "change my mind" culture we have on platforms like X and YouTube and think that every other platform needs to follow that mindset.

I do not post online to get yelled at by dickheads. I post to show things I'm happy about.

This is another thing the people writing hit pieces on Bluesky don't understand:

We don't want to debate people. We want conversation about things we like.

It blows my mind that a guy centered his hit piece on this site around "humans need to argue".

No, we don't! What ass did you pull that from?

I'm pretty sure I've had more people total at my store on a slow day than this dude managed to get for a wrestling show.

When you manage to do lower numbers than a used bookstore in Matthews, it might be time to disappear from society, never to be seen again.

You know, I was trying to figure out a way to include Abadon for Race Day and I think I just found my way of doing it. This is awesome.

I was reminded of that when I went to watch Charlotte FC against Columbus Crew in Charlotte and a stonewall penalty wasn't given, only to see a clearly offside goal get awarded later.

They still won that match, but good lord that was terrible reffing.

Seriously, these people do not look like people. They look like what AI THINKS people look like.
