On Jacob Geller

Love to tug my plug with Eddie Hearn.

So apparently Dana has been claiming that he is promoting Fury vs Joshua. Eddie Hearn insists this is not true but Dana keeps doubling down. They had a Fury vs. Joshua press conference and Dana claimed he couldn't attend because he was busy with the Contender Series LOL.

Anytime I'm reminded that Joe Rogan considers himself a professional comedian with a podcast side-hustle, I can't stop laughing. It's like reverse-impostor syndrome.

This guy Diop actually is very funny. He reminds me of both Reug Reug and Dricus Du Plessis. I mean that in the worst ways possible.

He's legitimately scrambling to find someone worse than Sean Sherif. And Diop is worse, but he's also -way- funnier. You should watch that fight, it's hysterical. Dude is throwing shit like superman hammerfists

Dana lining up some future opponents for Gable Steveson.

glad to see ufc remains the highest echelon of mixed martial arts

The quintessential Dana White quote.

I dunno what the punishment is for perjuring yourself in order to discredit a survivor of sexual violence, but they should triple it. Whatever it is, just keep tripling it until the number sounds right.

Shout out to when PAC went giga brain as Malakai Black sprayed him with black mist so PAC wore 1 eyepatch for a bit. So PAC sold it by his depth perception now being bad so he screwed up his high flyer moves

I didn't know this man for his post-WWE work (my loss, I'm sure). I remembered him as Neville, or by his all-timer nickname 'The Man That Gravity Forgot'. What a gifted performer, grateful I got to watch him before I largely stopped engaging with wrestling. RIP.

u fuckin wot m8?

Hi, I'm looking to speak to people who have left games journalism in the last few years and have gone onto do something else. DMs are open, or luke@aftermath.site, thanks!

pack it all up. we're done here.

Sorry are you completely out of your fucking mind

Had to replace my 7-year-old vape (RIP) because of cat shenanigans. I beat the fuck out of that vape, probably dropped it a thousand times, but everything has its limit I guess. Its limits were my female cat. Between this and Buddy breaking a TV it has been an expensive few weeks to be a pet owner.

Marina Shafir shares emotional statement on the heartbreaking news of Pac's passing. #AEW

Fascinated by the idea that the 'most evil' UFC champ isn't one of the abusers, serial rapists, or neonazis. It's just some French guy who lands too many fouls in his fight.

I'm rewatching this now, I have to. There's a black lady who is 'racist against white people' and they stick her in a bedroom alone with a neonazi. Dr. Phil has to tell the neonazi 'you better not do any more violent crimes, you've done a lot of those' but the show frames them both as the same lol.

Shout out to one of my favourite videos: Big Joel's essay on Dr Phil's House of Hatred. A show where they took 'black people who hate white people', 'gay guy who hates straight people' (both just roles the producers convinced them to play) and stuck them with hardcore homophobes and literal nazis.

Apparently some guy won The Ultimate Fighter due to DQ (illegal knee) last night lmao. TUF means nothing of course but that's diabolical.

Apparently, Barcelos was winning the fight going into the 5th round. Rosas needed a finish. In the fifth, Barcelos experienced some sort of medical emergency that left him limp and had to be stretchered out of the octagon. Normally I'd post a clip but I don't want to see that & neither do you.

It's impressive that the UFC can put on a card so bad that I won't even watch the highlights the next morning. I'm good. If something cool happens I'll see it on the TL, or not, I don't care.

Instantly cured my depression thinking about Hank Hill pronouncing "Nier: Automata"

My only regret about not eating meat any more is that now, I'll never get to try that sandwich that killed Elvis. I could find a vegetarian celebrity and eat the sandwich that killed them but it wouldn't be the same.

Tech companies suddenly decide they can, in fact, moderate content on their platforms after all

Class solidarity.

Catching up on Re:Zero. Some of the most beautiful psychological horror of the last few years, my god.

Didn’t realize I oneshotted so many people with this

I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

Maybe hot take: Compared to movies, the production of TV shows is much more commercialised and cynical in a way that makes it kinda hard to engage in Discourse about them. The people who engage in them heavily are also very different. People who watch a lot of movies are more likely to care about..
