You have to admire pro wrestling fans for their thorough documentary attention. The Undertaker has a longer Wikipedia page than most US Presidents.

Harlem, physically at least, has changed very little in my parents’ lifetime or in mine. Now as then the buildings are old and in desperate need of repair, the streets are crowded and dirty, there are too many human beings per square block. Rents are 10 to 58 per cent higher than anywhere else in the city; food, expensive everywhere, is more expensive here and of an inferior quality; and now that the war is over and money is dwindling, clothes are carefully shopped for and seldom bought. Negroes, traditionally the last to be hired and the first to be fired, are finding jobs harder to get, and, while prices are rising implacably, wages are going down. All over Harlem now there is felt the same bitter expectancy with which, in my childhood, we awaited winter: it is coming and it will be hard; there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Kids, have you ever been simultaneously in love and annoyed with your Tamagatchi pet? Like, Jesus Christ what the fuck do you want now? I just fed you and played with you! That's what parenthood feels like. Have fun with that!

r/antiwork has me feeling some type of way.
Since about 2005 the rate of people giving babies first names that are historically surnames had increased dramatically. Just a remind that Jackson Jameson means Son of Jack & Son of James, and is etymologically confusing as fuck.
