Kickstarter doesn’t release the funds to a project until the goal is hit, and if it doesn’t reach the goal they don’t get anything. I’m not sure if they collect the money from funders before the target is hit or not though.

I really hope this doesn’t mean multiple rematches.

This is just slightly more confirmation that “top flight” as a gimmick is just keeping that whole crew grounded.

I was originally going to say the butt plugs must represent NWA but then spotted that logo was on his chest like a Cody tramp-stamp.

my magic hard drive has 1-7, and then somehow 10. Don’t know how I missed 8 & 9.

One butt plug for each time he won the WWE 24/7 Championship…

Gotta love Psycho Mike!

I really must catch up on the Mystery Wrestling shows I’ve missed.

Now I just have to wait until that stupid deal Sky has to HBO Max rights in UK/Ireland to lapse some time next year.

Some day one of these press releases might actually matter here!

I’m looking forward to a world that will hopefully not require (not THAT Sexy Star) be added to any comments about Gatubela.

Season 1 of Powerrr was awesome!

Ricky Starks, Eddie Kingston, Thunder Rosa, Eli Drake… it’s honestly shocking how many talents bloomed out of the manure that Powerrr never cultivated anything in.

I wonder where they’ll land next month… streaming on Rumble maybe? I’m not sure if that’d be better or worse.

I don’t see a timer at the bottom of their website - instead I see this line of text:

https://blackmesa.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/SampleinGC.png DAMN! You guys are quick... Didn't even have time to put the right image up yet.

That SampleinGC.png image is accessible, and is a picture of a vial in a testing chamber of some sort. The image also has metadata attached; a description that is a string of morse code:

I think with a self-hosted mastodon instance, the main downside is poorer discovery across the fediverse as a whole.

When you scale up to the thousands of users something like mastodon.social has, it’s not really an issue because other users have already established connections between instances by following or replying… but if your instance only has a single user, you only see and share posts with the instances you’ve directly interacted with, and it can be really isolating. You have to already know what external accounts you want to follow, because your instance is initially blind to them.

I feel like more instance connections leads to way larger amounts of data consumption too. I follow 120, and am followed by 12… my instance is currently using 24.1 GB for Media Storage.

It also means I’m usually watching everything the day after, because I’m not staying up to 5am for PPVs. Mind you, I’m still probably staying up to watch some other rubbish instead.

Just followed you from my mastodon account, I don’t bother posting there much, use it more like a news feed than a social media @EccTM@mastodon.emmetcoughlan.com

I believe there’s an official federated (if you’re not completely anti-meta) AEW account here: @aew@threads.net

Not sure if it makes more or less posts than the official bird site one you’ve got a mirror of there - I don’t go to that area of the internet any more.

I’m pro-“toots”. Most people’s comments are glitter-fart worthy at best within 140 characters 😂

This is where Regal shows up and explains that calendars are different in kayfabe, I guess.

What day of the week do you think it’ll land on?
Maybe it’s just RoH getting a sneaky televised Thursday slot, instead of HonorClub?

Yeah, it kinda suits all three promotions to just take the big bag of cash, doesn’t it?

WWE has always wanted a solid presence in Japan, and TNA would probably just be fun for them to burn to the ground, because they could already have their pick of anyone on that roster if they wanted.

Four tiers of developmental sounds like a very WWE thing to do, too. (OVW > TNA > NXT > WWE)
