I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.

Me: I don’t see the appeal of boxing

TV: OK but what if it’s professional boxers savagely brutalizing influencers

I still get value from social media in finding interesting things to read or understanding modern trends/discussions or as a way to observe for various purposes, generally. However, I use it more passively than ever. I am growing more inclined to participate in it less as time goes on.

Update on my martial arts blog. I may actually be cursed. My 1st post was on Nurmagomedov v Hughes 1: the rematch ended up being behind a pay wall on an app no one has. My second was about RdR: resulted in him immediately losing. Still worth reading for MMA fans

Bad take. More or less every culture has a martial arts history and some sort of sport culture related to it. The majority of combat sports fans aren't watching diet snuff, we're appreciating and connecting with that art. Compare the popularity of Powerslap to actual combat sports to see what I mean

I'm watching Jiri v Rountree for a 3rd time. It's just so perfect. I've been watching MMA for close to 20 years and this may be my favorite come from behind victory of all time. #MMA #UFC #MartialArts

You can tell Ank was totally overwhelmed there because he didn't attempt to go for any kind of underhook, overhook, or bodylock. Just covered up even though he had the knee shield in place. #UFC320
