This is mostly for my own benefit so I can tell my friend Jordan that I was right about everything, because I'm definitely going to be right. 

• Dark Order Vs. SCU - Dark Order wins here. I believe truly in my heart of hearts that Matt Hardy is the Exalted One. I don't think he can appear at this event contractually but a huge tease is gonna happen. SCU is on the way down since they lost the belts and all the stuff with whats his face maybe getting mixed up with Dark Order, he might even turn on them for this-- and it makes sense to me that with Dark Order gaining power into the reveal of The Exalted One, they're going to come out on top here. 

• Pac Vs. Orange Cassidy - Two minds about this one. So, let's say Pac loses to Orange Cassidy. Okay, where would you take that. Pac just went 40 minutes with Omega Wednesday and lost by a hair (and a pin), so let's say he loses again. So what do you do now, well, if Moxley wins, he goes on the road to getting the belt from him, maybe fighting Jericho or MJF, but he looks kinda weak and kind of dumb tbh, because Cassidy is a great wrestler but he's also Orange Cassidy. And if Orange Cassidy wins, wtf do you do? He's not getting no belt. No way. So I think Pac wins, but Cassidy puts in 40% of his true effort. I think they save Orange Cassidy's BIG EXPLOSION AND SERIOUS BUSINESS match for later down the line. Because if you reveal his true power now-- no. Pac wins. But it's a good match. It's definitely the one I'm most looking forward to. 

• Nyla Rose Vs. Kris Statlander - I don't think you can have the 2-week reigning first transgender wrestler lose her title that quick. Plus, they actually have a champ with some real heat right now with her I BREAK BITCHES thing. Plus, Kris is still developing into a real star. She can challenge again later, but i think Nyla wins this one pretty handily. No question. Nyla 100%. 

• Darby Allin Vs. Sammy Guevara - Darby has been getting some huge cheers lately. His whole story right now is that Sammy fucked with him just because he was helping Mox. Personally, I want Darby to win, but I think Sammy is going to pull it off thanks to some Inner Circle shenanigans. Maybe. Now that I'm thinking about it, this whole show is king of a bunch of Inner Circle guys going up against their counterparts on the face side of things. This makes me think Sammy will win even more. I think Sammy pulls away here, then Darby teams with Mox to take down the crumbs of IC. 

• Jake Hager Vs. Dustin Rhodes - I don't know about this one. I'm not sure where to go with it. Dustin has been hunting the Inner Circle for awhile now but he doesn't really have a lot else going on. He works with Cody sometimes, but they aren't gonna suddenly be a tag team I don't think. So where do you go with it. If Jake wins, maybe Darby teams with Dustin instead of Mox? They've been together fighting Inner Circle a lot recently in run-ins. They both kind of have the outsider thing going on too. I want Dustin to win, but what do you do with Jake if he does? It's his first singles match. Of course, it was Wardlow's first singles match the other night during the cage match too... I straight up don't know, but I'm going to go with Jake winning because it seems the safest for future storylines and it fits where I think the story will go next. 

• Page/Omega Vs. Young Bucks - THIS is gonna be a firecracker. I think the ideal situation to advance this story is that Omega just straight up lets the Bucks win, or that Page just walks tf out. Okay, actually, you got a few things. The Bucks are already pissed with Page because he's turning his back on their friendship and just legitimately turning into an alcoholic, and he thinks Kenny Omega doesn't really respect him or their team. So you could go reconciliation, which I don't see happening, or you have Hangman going his own way and ditching the three of them, OR, you have Omega somehow giving up on Page. The last two scenarios seem more likely. Either way, The Elite dies here. There'll be some moment in the future where they can get back together, but they're donezo. I think Bucks win. 

• Cody Vs. MJF - Cody wins. Cody wins hard. There's just no way MJF leaves this ring the victor. Cody is king of all baby faces rn, but if he loses on his own without any bullshit, he is dead. They've been building this since what, November? Cody wins. MJF decides he'll go after the title, because that way Cody never gets to fight him again because he can't challenge. MJF gets the shit beat out of him here though, and he deserves it. It will not be a humbling experience. This feud will live on. 

• Mox Vs. Jericho - So all night Inner Circle has been winning, either through bullshit or just straight victory. So Jericho is comin' in hot and cocky, and he loses. Straight up. Mox does the impossible and dethrones the king. After this, the rest of The Inner Circle turns on Jericho. They've been following him because he was the king of bullshit mountain. He's not the king of nothing now, and all of THEM won their matches. Why can't he? They abandon him. He'll make a run for the title again but he is going to get the shit beat out of him for awhile and go WAY low. I mean losing to everyone and every body. But IC abandons him immediately after his defeat for sure. And Mox wins. 100%. 

What is the most embarassingly stupid trash tier mobile game that you spent hours of your life playing

I will lead the charge here. It is a "game" called Zen Idle. In this alien's idea of what a game is, colored balls drop through the game board and give you dollars when they pass gates so that you can buy upgrades for your colored balls. It takes weeks of playing to get any real progress. It is inherently stupid. I have it installed right now. I have it open literally at this second. I paid 3 dollars to it so that I didn't have to see ads.

It is your turn now

This post is just a 2 minutes and 6 seconds performance of Tame by the Pixies in 1991, and I think it is the best piece of rock music footage ever shot on earth. Near the end of the video, Black Francis literally channels the uninhibited sound of entropy and blasts it into my ear holes and it gives me unlimited joy. 

I've been using a meal delivery service for the last few weeks. I tried to be a meal prepper but since I am lazy garbage, it ultimately became a question of "How much chili can I eat before I die" or "Can I have spaghetti every single night of my life for the entire rest of it". 

I hate ingredients delivery services because that is just a grocery store trip + $30 extra dollars for no reason, so it doesn't really do much but give you the illusion of eating well one night a week for seventy dollars. 

So I got one of those "meals already prepared" deals and it's been alright-- it doesn't feel like freezer food since they're never actually frozen, and I don't eat as much arby's which is always a plus, both for my sick ass dad bod and also for, I guess, the rest of it. 

I don't hate it. It's nice not eating the same 4 things over and over + something I found a recipe for once in awhile. 

Cooking is a really relaxing thing to do, but I don't enjoy shopping at all, so that's basically what it always boiled down to. So now I can have a pan seared steak once a week but then the rest of it isn't just whatever trash I shoved in a crock pot. 

Not bad. Medium reccomend. 

I thought I'd post this both so you can see what data Analytics pulls from the site and just to sort of have a historical record of everything





This is the traffic data available from Satyrn since the live site really opened up on Jan 7th for ther soft launch. That huge burst of traffic on the 17th is when we had our big opening, we had 76 visitors that day, most of whom registered during that event. 

Consistently since then we've had ~15 people a day, and a total of 232 unique people or devices connect to the site. If you use desktop and mobile, you count as two, but that's just the way it is. The bounce rate is also very low-- most blog sites industry wide see a bounce rate of ~75%, this is the amount of people who come to the site, see one page, then duck out, generally speaking. 

What's really nice to see is that most people are going on average to 11 different pages every time they come to the site, meaning they're writing reading or contributing to a ring or something-- 

So what are the most active pages? To absolutely no ones surprise, the NSFW ring holds the record right now for most viewed page, followed by the patch/dev blog, then Supersugar, Nomad, Stefhats, and Sandyquill.

Lots of comments, lots of posts, and a steady registration stream of users. Everything looks really nice. If you would like your own contributions to the anonymized user data of Satyrn to NOT be counted, please follow the links in the privacy policy to find out how to do that. 

I am in an insatiable black hole of writing right now, this week, since last Sunday, I have written eleven scripts for season 2 of my show, coming out to one hundred and forty one pages in seven days, I'm on a bender dude. I can't stop. I'm gonna finish this miniseries by tomorrow. Unbelievable. It took me almost 10 months to write fifteen scripts for season one. At this rate I could finish season 3 and 4 and still be done quicker than that.

I help mod for /r/games and a few other places on reddit because 1) I hate the internet and everyone on it and 2) I hate myself, so it works out perfectly most of the time. The problem is that like all corporate giant fuck you machines on the internet reddit is run by a bunch of psychopaths with nothing in their heart but bullshit and nightmares. 

Mods of giant ass subs like /r/games are generally invited to these private subs where reddit admins come down from their glorious garbage cans every so often to allow the peasants to touch their robes and it's the most sycophantic mega shit ever to be seen. 

You'll have all these absolute toads crawling out of their neckbeard nests to coddle these billionaire fuck jobs and tell them how good of a job they're doing at fucking up everything all the time, like rolling out massive changes to moderation tools with zero notice and no care at all. 

The admins will go We're so sorry :( next time we'll give you so much notice you won't know what to do with it :) but they've been saying that over and over since 2010. God it is abysmal. This is what I'm always talking about, how the internet as it exists in this moment is a total misfire of a great thing.

Jon Bois did a series recently called Fighting In The Age Of Lonliness which is on its face about the history of MMA, but really it's about how things and concepts become Products. How even the idea of throwing two dudes in a cage and letting them kill each other can be consumed by a corporate conglomerate and turned into an image of the thing that it was, which already existed for entertainment. 

There's a philosophical concept called The Map Is Not The Territory, which states-- in incredibly simple terms, that it is easy for people to build a model of a thing and see it as the thing. Build a tree out of construction paper-- it's a tree! But if you cut a mountain out of a map, you don't cut it off the earth. 

If you built a map that's exactly the same as the earth, and put it around the earth, it doesn't make it any more real. It's still a map, it's still an abstraction, even if you occupy it. 

And in Simulacra and Simulation this is expanded further to talk about the internet, and technology in general. The internet is based on nothing. This isn't an abstraction, it's an idea called the hyperreal, here there isn't even a falsification of a map, the reality is this text you're reading right now occupies nothing and is in a space that exists beyond even a map, it's abstraction of nothing. Nothing preceded it, nothing succeeds it, it's not foldable any further because a thing called a blog doesn't fuckin' exist. You can't point to an object in your real life and say "This is a Youtube" "That's a soundcloud."

All this just to say that, I'm mad about some comments on a shitty website written by a team of people pretending to be a single person, using language that has been mutilated into meaninglessness by repitition and cowardice and greed. I'm mad at a thing that is an image of a thing projecting images of a thing so far into the mirror that what I'm seeing and reading canonically factually and objectively means nothing but I'm still mad at it. 

Fuck me, I've lost the plot of this post but the central thesis is this-- the idea of the internet as it once existed as a meetingplace is gone and lost, and in its stead is a box of thumbtacks stretched over the entire planet just crushing us under the weight of its absolute meaninglessness. Yet, I myself spend upwards of 12 hours a day looking directly at it. 

The problem was, until the money came and the frontier disappeared, this was a good idea. I believe it. I know it was. I SAW it. I EXPERIENCED it. I met people 20 years ago on the internet who I've never seen with my human eye balls that I think are some of the greatest people I ever knew! But now it's crawling with shit so thick and toxic it almost can't be directly observed.
