The corporate myth needs wrestling to look small before 1984, because that makes WWE’s rise look like creation rather than conquest. Hogan did not create wrestling. He became the face of the company that taught generations how to remember it.

During my first trip to Japan, I had to, of course, hear the story of @Yapi, the person who made #IceRibbon more accessible to me (and many others). And what a story it has been! New article up on @resuramag (and one of my first attempts of a very long, in-depth interview).
Yappy: From Being an Outsider to Finally Belonging @argyemm sits down in Japan with Ice Ribbon star @Yapi for an in-depth interview, exploring her journey and reflecting on wrestling culture. resuramag.com/2026/04/01/yap…

My husband is 53 years old and has a PhD along with two masters degrees. He loves playing video games. It’s his favorite way to relax especially after giving lectures, grading, or doing research. Stop pretending video games are a barrier to “adulthood success.”
I'm 46 years old. I stopped playing video games when I was 25. Then I finished a PhD. "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."

Last week, at @ProWrestlingEVE , I met my favourite wrestler. That's it.

Yesterday, during an in-class activity, a student told me that they didn't know what Napster was. I am officially old.

It's really annoying when games suddenly go offline, right? The industry might have been better if we stopped seeing games as "services" and started seeing them as "products." Let's show them that we care about preserving modern games. #stopkillingames stopkillinggames.com/

Isla says it nicely here. Preach! And, yes, media literacy is a mandatory skill in the 21st century and more people should try to study/get it.

The most impressive underdog stories of #Paris2024 is Nera Tiebwa from #Kiribati. Her Olympic judo tournament may have only lasted 5 seconds, but her story is still inspiring. 🧵 – at Kerpen, Deutschland

Sure, I loved #QueensQuest and the old #OedoTai, and, sure, it is bittersweet to see them go. But now #STARDOM has a fully heel champion for the first time in years. And it is super interesting. Yes, I don't mind.

If you aren't all rooting for our 3 athletes we're boycotting the next Olympics and just sending a frigate bird.
