Do not stand
      By my tweets, and cry—
I am not there,
       I did not die.

For REASONS I wasn't really feeling the vibes preparing to do this ep but it turns out that talking for an hour or so about my favourite band with my best friend was exactly what I needed. <3

[I Die: You Die Ⓥ @idie_youdie]

We discuss the first new record from The Cure in sixteen years, reflecting on its links to the band's past and our own personal histories with them. https://t.co/zlWm7HVAt7

The last year and a half of my New Japan thoughts in one 3 second clip.

this pronunciation broke me @Contrasoma @heykarensensei the absolute disdain

Bru Dog was on fire recapping this main event seg

[Bruce @Contrasoma]

If you follow me in part to stay abreast of what NJPW stuff is worth watching, please take it as read that you should be watching each and every one of Daiki Nagai's matches. Have been saying this since the first Soul show and his work and swagger has only improved since.

Alex is bang-on. Hearing Robert sing "steal away my brother's life" at the show last year hit the way the bitter "But I didn't" in "Cut Here" did because Robert giving himself no figurative or literary escape routes is very rare.

Ever wonder what's going through the DJ's head at a Halloween party? Alex and I bring decades of experience to bear on an evaluation of common requests.

[I Die: You Die Ⓥ @idie_youdie]

We field Halloween DJ requests on this week's episode of We Have A Technical! https://t.co/h3rcmcKsal

Verdugo with one of the worst at-bats you’ll ever see to end it, you just hate to see it.

@JackWannan Can't not be happy for Teo.

Shohei Ohtani is a World Baseball Classic Champion and an MLB World Champion.

@toshanshuinLA So happy to see good things happening for Teo. Love that guy.

My "I'm not Hitler" speech has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my speech.

[Bruce @Contrasoma]

@mongo_ebooks I have no spicy takes pro or con there. Of all things their mix on the Cleo Numan remix comp was probably my first point of contact.

[Bruce @Contrasoma]

@_parasocial I'm really sorry about this, pal. :(

[Bruce @Contrasoma]

Mainstream acceptance/popularity is looked upon skeptically and as anathema at worst in pretty much every other hobby/community I'm a part of and so the whiplash of it being trotted out as a coup de grace in discussions of wrestling aesthetics sure is something.

[Bruce @Contrasoma]

For reference, no member of either team's starting rotation was born when "It Was A Good Day" was released. Baby steps, MLB. Baby steps.

@BrandonfrmNJ Man, come on, they just stuck a wig on Liam Neeson's really sleepy kid.

Hell of a Game 1. Every 90 feet mattered, manufactured runs, bombs, fantastic pitching duel to start, lightning fast tactical choices.
