In an industry full of terrible ticket buying experiences, it's refreshing to see AXS be so far ahead of their peers in just being the absolute worst.

A few weeks late, but finally pulled together my photos and thoughts on Produce Volume 4, the (likely) final wrestling show held at the White Eagle Hall in Jersey City. It was my most regular show venue, and I'll miss it. (CW: the show closed with a death match.) #wrestlesky #wrestling

OMG. 29 years ago I put an Easter egg in Duke Nukem 3D Mac, that replaced two of the in-game posters with pictures of a couple plush animals I had. I never told anyone other than my wife about the code (DNGLENDA) and completely forgot I did this. 1/2

Sometimes you are shown a game trailer of such overwhelming scope and chaotic unrelated slices of gameplay that even if it only exists at 0.1% of what's being shown, it would tower over every other creative work released that year combined. Anyway, here's Hypernet Explorer:

The more I ponder what Mary said here, I think it is VERY important for those who don't like this EVEN IF YOU DON'T STREAM and want to send a message to Amazon on where the Twitch community falls in the genAI discussion to go in their settings and turn this off. The metrics are what speaks to them.

They're showing the "Thanks World, We'll Take It From Here" ad for MLS *during halftime on the Apple TV broadcast* of Philly vs. RBNY. I don't have my name on the game ball, but I don't know, maybe advertise the league at people who aren't currently watching the product?

"I’m very tolerant but I’m not sure the baby’s getting anything out of this" is absolutely sending me. www.theguardian.com/stage/2026/j...
Screenshot of a Guardian headline:
Tempest in the stalls as baby disrupts Kenneth Branagh RSC performance
Audience members said baby’s cooing and gurgling ruined Branagh’s return to the RSC after 30 years, with some seeking refunds“There was a young woman with a baby in the audience – and it mithered all the way through the first act,” ticketholder Sian Morgan told the Daily Mail. “Thank goodness there was never any actual screaming or crying, but it was gurgling and cooing and chirping very loudly throughout. It never let up.”

Morgan added the child appeared to wake up during the opening scene. “Theatre audiences generally are very tolerant and progressive, but it was ruining it for everyone as it made it so hard to concentrate – and by the end people were audibly tutting and turning around to show their displeasure,” she said.Another audience member said their group had made a six-hour round trip and paid £400 to attend the performance, which had been “completely ruined” by the disturbance.

“No one wanted to be mean to a young mother, but it was simply extraordinary that she seemed unable to read the room and to take the baby outside when it began being noisy,” they said.

Among those in the audience was also former home secretary David Blunkett, who is blind and relies on hearing. “I said to the person sitting next to me: ‘I’m very tolerant but I’m not sure the baby’s getting anything out of this,’” he said.

I got notebook/sketchbook covers to sublimate on. Was really struggling with what kind of design to do. But settled on refreshing one of my previous designs inspired by @adampknave.com. Happy with the redraw, haven't decided yet if I'll continue making these. But they are very nice and refillable.

If I had a nickel for every time Don Garber said a weird thing about having his name on the soccer ball, I'd have ten cents. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened (at least?) twice.

Oh good, the “iOS Teams unread count is wildly wrong” issue isn’t just me!
Getting an incorrect notification count on your ^ mobile device
This is a known issue under investigation.
Teams might display an incorrect notification count on the iOS app badge. You'll still see the correct notification count in the desktop version of Microsoft Teams on both Windows and Mac.
For example, Teams on your desktop may indicate no unread messages, but Teams for iOS indicates that there are one or more unread messages.
