Reading Ancient Evenings because of my own ancient Egypt literary project, and I really was underprepared for "protagonist's spirit is forced to fellate his great-grandpa who shares his name (through multi-chapter flashbacks) in a literalization of Jungian archetypes"

Truly think that a good 20% of my issues stem specifically from the fact that, when Mom had DHS remove me from her custody (I was 7), she had me watch The NeverEnding Story (for the first time!) with her. In ten minutes I went from watching a horse drown to locking myself in the bathroom.

listen, feel however you want to feel about Paradise Lost, but I do find it darkly funny how Adam turns into alpha-build Andrew Tate for a few hundred lines there after the Fall

after it was referenced on @discordpod.bsky.social, I am now listening to the Ray Manzarek rock arrangement of Carmina Burana, which sounds like if you told a bunch of 1981 LA session pros to cut a Magma record

Moon is out tonight
Climate just right
For a cougar
Going out late
Knowing that it's fate
To meet a cougar
I need to be pounced
Pixar lamp-bounced
By a cougar
Give me something strong
βcause the wait has been too long
For my cougar
Iβve been searching
All my life
For a MILF to strap me down
And be my wife
Elastigirl started it all
Made girls my age invisible
RFKJr. says autistic people will never write a poem, when I woke up today and started a cougar-themed verse to the tune of Black Man by Stevie Wonder

The Killer Khan bio is my best work, but I think Yoshimura is my most important piece: a journey through early puroresu that isn't dominated by Rikidozan, Baba, or Inoki. Very excited for the new eyes that Charles will bring to my work.

Mighty Inoue's passing and the lacking obituaries have made it clear that my profiles here must stand as the definitive English obituaries of these legends. All of my profiles are living documents, but I have a responsibility to make them the best I can while their subjects are still living.

Today I'm writing a substantial revision of my PWO profile for Motoyuki Kitazawa, one of puroresu's eldest still living.
Mighty Inoue's passing and the obits I've read have made it clear that my work must stand as the definitive English obituaries for these legends, when their time comes.

Fighter Fujimoto's JWA became affiliated with the Doshisha Pro Wrestling Alliance, a student puroresu club at Kyoto's Doshisha University. The DWA had superior resources, for their vice chairman happened to be the wealthy heir to a tea ceremony school. (Only in Japan.)

Fighter Fujimoto struggles through a Big Akihira leg lock, 1982. Fujimoto was a pioneer of hobbyist puroresu, who got his start holding free shows with fellow JSDF servicemen in the latter half of the 70s. At right is Akihira and Fujimoto at RikidΕzan's grave.

Good news: I found a 1998 South Korean TV documentary about Kintaro Oki on my old hard drive, which I need for a future podcast episode.
