I reviewed Ted Lasso Season 4. Its very much making all the same mistakes as Scrubs S9, and it's to the detriment of the really wonderful stuff involving the new all-female Richmond team. Still, Ted remains just the best, and my girl Tanya Reynolds from Sex Education is the season's MVP. Go read.
Ted Lasso almost overstays his welcome in an unfocused new season. Read our review.
This is unironically what it's going to be like if even a single DSA backed candidate makes it into the Dem Primaries for 2028

Gun to your head (literally), you have to do one of these things 50 times in a row or die. Which do you choose? - A Shoryuken on a SNES d-pad - Getting into an up-pipe in Super Mario World suspended over a large gap that requires P-speed to hit
All the deepest love and respect to the folks at Bioware and Respawn, who have deserved better than EA for years, and absolutely deserve better than what's about to happen.
Well, I guess Electronic Arts belongs to Saudi Arabia, private equity, and Jared Kushner now. https://kotaku.com/electronic-arts-officially-belongs-saudi-arabia-jared-kushner-now-2000721666
So basically, AEW Redención, free on TBS tomorrow night?
#AEWDynamite is bringing 2.5 hours of action to you from one of wrestling's most iconic venues! Don't miss a moment of #GrandSlamMexico as Where The Best Wrestle are LIVE this Wednesday night at 8/7c on TBS and HBO Max
Showing my age as an online nerd here, but this is giving Harry Knowles pandering for "pwesents? UwU 👉👈" a run for its money as the most nauseating corporate tonguebath the internet has ever seen.
Comps/gifts/priority treatment are things media should reject whenever possible. Sometimes it isn't possible, and you manage those cases as honestly as you can. To instead treat these perks as an expectation, part of a trade between you and what you cover, is beyond embarrassing.

I think August forward will mark a real upheaval of my favorite 2026 games list, so in the interest of taking a mid-summer snapshot, my current top 5 is: Marathon Rhythm Heaven Groove Splatoon Raiders Resident Evil 9 Star Fox
I mean, I pretty much suspected this was the case, but I'm still mad about it. Not a single arcade racer since has hit quite like Midnight Club LA and Burnout Revenge.
Former Dev Says Midnight Club 5 Was Canceled Because The Series Was Rockstar's 'Red-Headed Stepchild'
I know *why* it happens like this, but I still hate that this shit only comes out after the monster's dead, and years have been wasted having an emotional connection to said monster's art. Anyway, here's Neko Case having a righteous, justified piss on Glen Hansard's grave, I guess.
I despise Substack and have previously said I will never read it (and I don't). But I will break my rule just for this eally disturbing piece of writing by Neko Case, who was / is in a band, The New Pornographers, who were supported by The Frames in 2002. nekocase.substack.com/p/in-what-fu...
Making Roman and Seth the figureheads of this particular era of WWE ain't the glowing praise you think it is, brother. Meanwhile, Mox, somewhere, happy, healthy, sober, wrestling worldwide, Champion at a company that loves him, and married to an S-tier baddie:

WOW Somebody’s petty.
The company that fired Kairi Sane and hasn't done jack shit with Giulia, Blake Monroe, Iyo Sky, or Liv Morgan in three months complaining about Persephone's booking is like a stone cast by a dying toddler from a glass house teetering over a cliff on Monster Island.

Current creative mandates that whenever Danhausen's not onscreen, all the other wrestlers should be asking "Where's Danhausen?"
lol they're gonna overexpose him and burn out the gimmick
Being in Quebec was the first time I got caught up on all the shit Jacques Rougeau had been up too in the last few decades, so none of this is surprising, but holy shit, TK's stock just went up with me for going zero tolerance on using AI for a promo video.
AEW threatened to kick Jacques Rougeau out of the Bell Centre at Redemption. TK & AEW keeping things real by saying "Fuck you" to AI 🔥 #AEW
Magenta Horizon and Gunhouse alone would be worth $10. Just an absurd deal, for a damn good cause.
In response to the unprecedented number of game developers laid off this year, we have created a bundle on itch to benefit a Game Industry Hardship Fund, managed by @videogameworkers.bsky.social. More than 100 games for 10+ bucks! Please share widely and donate generously! itch.io/b/3802/game-...
Sorry, you can literally break into Netflix offices and steal a movie??? The meme has come full circle
Fortitude, a $45m thriller starring Nicolas Cage and from the director of Con Air, has been stolen from Netflix's offices. Now its producer is suing the streamer for $105m. filmstories.co.uk/news/netflix...
So, not even not beating the "Stellar Blade 2 is AI" allegations but pleading guilty in a court of law before attacking a bailiff like Hannibal Lecter.

I missed Collision to take the wife to see a spiderman, but glad to see TK actually did the damn thing. They got the Fed bug out of their system. Time to lock back in.

This was hype as hell, and then that bit with the unicorn with the broken horn kicked my emotions in the goddamn teeth. Whatever venue they decide to debut in needs to bombproof their roof.
Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed (formerly of The New Day) just shared this video on IG, titled “Daybreak.” Both are set to become FREE AGENTS this week and are expected to become ALL ELITE.
Maybe the toughest list of Recommended Games on the internet. Also I've been screaming it since last year, but so many more of you should be playing Unbeatable.

Oh fuck. We lost Glen Hansard. Like most folks, seeing Once turned into an obsession with The Frames and The Swell Season. I've seen the latter live twice, both were among the best shows Ive ever seen. Just one of the most achingly soulful voices to ever do it. And I hate that hes gone this soon.
Glen Hansard, the Frames frontman and 'Once' star who won an Oscar for Best Original Song, has died at 56 following a motorcycle crash in Dublin. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

@xoxogossipgita.bsky.social preaching absolute GOSPEL with this one, especially given how much of this horseshit is now the insidious bedrock upon which 99% of so called "cozy" games have been built.
