Thanks for the shout-out at the end, guys! Very nice to meet Mike out of the blue on Saturday and glad it ended up better than his Friday. And to clarify, I listen to the show both at night (along with my podcasts) to unwind and also at other times like commutes to prep for the day!

Thanks so much! I am so happy it turned out the way I envisioned it. Sean Forney and Steven Defendini delivered.

Thanks so much! Glad you like them. I just get ideas, lol, but I can't draw for you know what. So I'm glad the artists are willing to go with them and bring them to life.

Thanks for posting! Glad you like it! Kibar is an amazing artist, especially using black paper for contrasts. Happy he drew this for me at NYCC 2026, first time he's done the character!

She really killed this one - glad to have commissioned it from her at NYCC 2026. Knew her art style would be perfect for it.

Yup. Just had her commissioned by Kibar at NYCC 2026 and just loved how it turned out ;) Here's my other two, by Katie Cook and Agnes Garbowska, if you havent seen them yet. First time for all three artists drawing her!

Ukraine is fighting a better war against Russia than America is fighting a war against Iran.

Will he be there Saturday or Sunday?

Ari B. @ariberenstein.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Was it ever going to go any other way?

Wait, he's in San Diego? Iran can do the funniest thing... 🤪

What a beautiful match. What a beautiful show. Viva la France! #AEW #AEWDynamite #AEWGrandSlam

That is one of the loudest receptions for the start of a match in #AEW history. Maybe on par with Omega vs. Ospreay from just two months ago and Omega vs. Danielson from the first #AEWGrandSlam. #AEWDynamite.

This show will be 2.5 hours too, Jim. ;)

Loving Queen Aminata's new music. Far more intriguing and matching her persona and less "Default Song 8" on a WWE 2K video game Create-An-Entrance. #AEW #AEWDynamite #AEWGrandSlam

Or maybe it's like a Tao-ist Denial of Pain, Denial of Reality.

Darby Allin should have some sort of axiomatic Physics Theory named after him. Theory of Relativity Relative to Dissonant Non-Acceptance of The Effects of Gravity on a Human Body. #AEW #AEWDynamite #AEWGrandSlam

Agree with that assessment.

Come on, Gail. You know you need a little MC Hammer "Can't Touch This" interlude.

Holy shit. They did it. They stuck the landing. #Lanterns #DC

"Right Back To It" by Waxahatchee is such a great needle drop for that scene. #Lanterns #DC #Episode8

Forget about AEW vs. NXT on Tuesday, the real battle in my own head is AEW vs. the NCIS-verse Season Premieres Tuesday (OG, Origins, New York). I'm going to get NO sleep that night.

I make sure to include it my HS Mythology unit every year. And now that the filmed version is available, I'll be showing that too!

The Million Dollar Man character liked to pay people off with $100 bills too.

I just realized you can’t spell Queen Aminata without “Mina”, which is my theory why she’s teaming up with Mina Shirakawa. And other letters. #AEW #AEWCollision

My secret theory is that Tony Khan instructs the music guy to start entrances for the next matches sometimes before wrestlers from previous matches have left to stir some shit up. #AEW #AEWCollision

I’m just catching a replay of AEW Collision now and seeing The Young Bucks tell the story about how PAC helped them create / elevate the More Bang For Your Buck. I understand now how this is likely the case.

This whole finish is the Young Bucks' More Bang For Your Buck. #WWE #Smackdown #AEW

Absolutely on point here. Thank you. My high school teacher who became teaching mentor who became one of my dearest friends and who son became my best friend loved to use that term in her class and now I use it as well.
