He/They. Trying out some different instances. If you see this handle on another instance, it’s probably me, unless someone else also stole it from Campaign: Skyjacks.

  • Tag Team Match
    Eddie Kingston & Hook are being built for bigger things, so I can’t see them not getting the win unless there’s a big surprise free agent signing in the TBA slot.

    200.000 Dollar Four Way Tag Team Match
    Bowens and Caster win here to further the story of them being better together than separate even if they can’t stand each other.

    Tag Team Match
    AJ & QT for the feel good win.

    CMLL World Trios Title Match
    El Sky Team takes it after shit goes down between Takeshita and Okada

    Main Show:

    No Holds Barred Match
    Kyle O’Reilly. I feel like the more compelling story coming out of this is the fall of the Death Riders, and Mox in particular.

    Singles Match
    I could see this one going either way, but I think Pac furthers the fall of Mox story more, so I’ll go with that.

    1.000.000 Dollar Six Man Tag Team Match
    Omega Express takes it here leading to a Bucks face turn

    Four Way Tag Team Match
    I like the Sisters of Sin winning here, just because them getting to pick a stip for their next match sounds like the most fun.

    AEW National Title Casino Gauntlet Match (inaugural)
    I’m gonna say one of the TBAs here. I feel like the first champ here is going to be a NJPW or CMLL guy, to help differentiate this belt from all the others.

    AEW TNT Title No Disqualification Match
    Briscoe. I feel like if they wanted to do an unwilling member of DCF story, they could have done it with Mark Davis, and they chose not to. And The Conglomeration is getting a big push right now.

    AEW World Tag Team Title Match
    Brodido’s not done yet. They’re so good together.

    AEW Women’s World Title Match
    Kris winning is the much more interesting path for both Kris and Mercedes, so I’m going with that.

    AEW World Title Steel Cage Match
    Calling it for Hanger.


  • I think my experience has been the opposite. Last time I got a job I applied for was 2005. Granted, I was with that company for 14 years, but since 2019, literally every job I have gotten (4 at this point) has been because recruiters reached out to me, while probably 95% of jobs I proactively applied for never even bothered to interview me. I’ve even seen job listings I applied for expire and get relisted without them even talking to me, which felt utterly humiliating.

    It’s weird, simultaneously being in-demand enough that people reach out to offer jobs to me out of the blue, but at the same time being unable to even get an interview on my own. Really makes me think this phantom jobs thing is true.
















  • The vast majority of us have nothing to do with it. It’s dumb senate rulemaking that has metastisized over the last 250 years. It does only take a simple majority to pass legislation in the Senate, but it takes 60% to end debate on a bill (this is called “cloture”). In the past, Senators would take advantage of this by simply talking incessantly until a cloture vote was called just to get them to shut up so the Senate can move on with business (a maneuver called the filibuster). At some point, the Senate decided to streamline things by allowing Senators to simply signal their intent to filibuster, so that they can just not call a vote for that bill and move on to other business. And now, since it takes literally zero effort to filibuster a bill, almost every bill gets filibustered, giving us the de facto 60 vote requirement.

    Seriously, this country needs an enema, and the Senate is where you’d stick the hose.
