Fun fact: This can also be seen as the perspective of a Terminator before it kills its targets. You know, because that's where it's all headed.

Having the replay on in the background proved more entertaining than that Bills/Saints game.

We remember this giant in entertainment with this anecdote from Lin-Manuel Miranda, as well as this classic number from the original West Side Story.

IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!
The biggest wrestling story of the week, by far, was the crazed fan who jumped the rail and attacked Seth Rollins on WWE Monday Night Raw, potentially getting himself years of jail time in the process.

We're pointing this out today, because it's worth spotlighting how much of a professional Seth Rollins is, because he could have easily taken the rest of the night off to process this. Instead, just an hour later, he's right back to being the epic douche that we've come to love booing.
The coast is clear for @WWERollins to take a ringside seat for the main event!#WWERAW pic.twitter.com/UwRwr0H3Ot

At least his wardrobe looked normal this week... mostly.
Tonight in video game music
Having seen FamilyJUles, ToxicxEternity, and The8BitDrummer perform live a few weeks ago, this Razercon 2021 performance is a treat. Enjoy the heavy metal covers for tracks from Banjo-Kazooie, Mega Man X, Halo, and more.
