Well.

That escalated quickly.

Isn't that the plan with the EVOLVE reboot?

That's a strange issue. The fact that it's OS independent and not particularly tied to resource utilization makes me agree it might be electrical.

Weird question, but have you tried swapping out your keyboard and mouse? I'm wondering if there might be faulty wiring on one of those causing a short or something.

Best of luck dealing with that stuff!

So, word is that, when Tony Khan and Shane McMahon met last year, Shane tried to wheedle his way to an equity stake and a creative position with AEW despite not actually knowing anything about the product. Which, if that's true, that's kinda hilarious that Shane tried to big-league Tony like that.

Sounds kinda like the deal that Bischoff and Hogan made with TNA back in the day, come to think of it, and likely would have been even more disastrous.

Thanks for the correction. I haven't worked in the government, so my knowledge is a bit limited.

And don't forget gutting the FAA.

The morons fired every federal employee who was classified as "probationary", in multiple departments. This is all employees with less than 90 days in their current role, but because these idiots don't know anything about anything, they assumed it meant new hires only.

Others have pointed out that the US largely practices "at will" employment (IIRC, only one state doesn't), and that's true, but government workers do tend to have stronger protections than private sector workers. But probationary status is a whole other can of worms.

He was never genuine and never a centrist; he just dropped the mask. But I'm glad you figured him out and dropped him like a bad habit. Better late than never.

Honestly, modern conservatism is largely indistinguishable from Nazi-ism at this point anyway.

Seriously, turning Hangman burning down Swerve's house into a yule log is brilliant.

Can't wait to see her back in action!

It's not enough that these people steal from us and kill us, but they also insist we not criticize them while they do it.

TL;DR Effy's in damage control mode, but he does seem pretty apologetic about the whole thing.

Honestly, I felt like the backlash to his comments was a little overblown in the first place. I love AEW and all, but Tony Khan does come off pretty thin skinned at times.

Apparently he was backstage at AEW after his appearance at the GCW show.

Wonder if he was just visiting or if there are plans to bring him back.

First Dynamite on Max will be the New Year's Day episode, and will be Fight for the Fallen.

Also of note: Live Collision on 12/21 at the Hammerstein Ballroom, with Dynamite taping the next day (no live Christmas Dynamite lol).

Lots more dates in the article.

More than 100 Arizona Palestinian, Arab, Muslim, and progressive Democrats and community leaders have signed a letter making the case for those reluctant to support Kamala Harris against Donald Trump.

“We know that many in our communities are resistant to vote for Kamala Harris because of the Biden administration’s complicity in the genocide,” the letter, published Thursday night, reads.

“Some of us have lost many family members in Gaza and Lebanon. We respect those who feel they simply can’t vote for a member of the administration that sent the bombs that may have killed their loved ones,” the letter continued. “As we consider the full situation carefully, however, we conclude that voting for Kamala Harris is the best option for the Palestinian cause and all of our communities.”

This is great news. He's been fantastic in his appearances so far.

Wonder if this will be what sets Punk over the edge this time (a la the "Workers' rights" line from Hangman).

“In the fake news media, there are two sets of rules, and conservative[s] are always treated differently,” she continued.

Well, she's right about that much, but not in the way she thinks.

Honestly, the fact that sociopathic whack jobs like Noem are even given the time of day by the media shows how beholden they are to conservative interests.
