this is from a Guardian review of Channel 4's Wrestling With Trump documentary. Positing, in 2026, that Kayfabe is an explanation for why fans don't like to admit wrestling isn't real should have you taken off any beat that covers anything remotely close to wrestling.

a screenshot from the Guardian website, it reads: "Kayfabe refers to the willing suspension of disbelief around wrestling. It's why fans don't like to acknowledge that their favourite physical spectacle is pure theatre, staged and scripted. It's far more entertaining and dramatic if you believe it's true; though deep down, in some Bluebeard's chamber, locked door of the psyche, you know it's not."

Once again, I come back to the fact these guys have created a situation where one of the UK's leading, cis female athletes is scared to go to the loo alone, and the fact that they are celebrating this as a step forward for women's rights.

Our code of practice for services, public functions and associations comes into force today. It provides practical guidance on how the Equality Act 2010 applies to services, public functions and associations. Find out more: https://ow.ly/alIf50Zwrkx

Quote from Dr Mary-Ann Stephenson: 'At the EHRC we want a society where everyone’s rights are respected and realised, so that we can all live well together. Our statutory guidance will help services across the country comply with the Equality Act, protecting service users from discrimination and harassment while reducing the risk of the provider being subject to litigation. As Britain’s equality regulator, our work doesn’t end upon publication of this guidance. We monitor compliance with the law and take enforcement action where proportionate and necessary, in line with our well-established regulatory model and decision-making framework.'
