No shit it is fake. Everyone knows it is fake. However, this insulting question has always pissed me off. People say it in a way that tries to dismiss all of wrestling as fake. They also use the same logic towards magic. People use it like a badge to show how smart they are and yet every time I hear it I can’t help but thing, “How fucking stupid are you?” I say this as someone who doesn’t even like wrestling.

One of the weirdest things to me is how people will say they’re friends with someone but not even peep their shit. You can forget about sharing it too. I’ve never understood this. Even online friends I meet I will try to view their stuff and share it if I can. You see on the side bar of my website are a few people’s stuff. Even if they are people I don’t agree with often; I still try to share their stuff. I’d actually like to go more in depth about how sharing, and viewing, your friends content can help dramatically.

I don’t want to have two algorithm based posts back to back but Twitter has been really pissing me the fuck off lately. However, through Twitter’s bad algorithm of showing “posts you’re interested in” I’ve noticed a giant trend that I think is doing a lot of harm to people. I believe the damage it is doing is way bigger than what people think. What’s interesting is the first time I noticed this was from STEM people I followed, but with Twitter’s busted algorithm I’ve noticed it’s much wider spread than I thought. What is it? Encouragement inequality.

A lot of people don’t know this but a hobby of mine is exploiting algorithms. I used to love to do SEO stuff on numerous websites. In fact, in the previous article about Jack Murphy I mentioned that. Right after posting it, I do mean the second I posted it, I had a few bots hit the article. Originally I intended to link to random stuff about Mr. Murphy. However, with him flagging down content constantly that makes it impossible. Why does that matter? Well, to optimize your SEO you need to link to external sites. It also ups it if you have external sites linking to you. Essentially Google, Bing, Yahoo, and all other search engines favor sites that give out a lot of external links and have external links to them. Once you understand this you learn a lot about how the internet works.
Sites like YouTube modify this with hidden algorithms. Which is why people like me used to spend hours testing it and seeing how we could optimize it. This is also why YouTube removed stuff like the P-Score being public, and dislikes. Every bit of data they can hide from people prevents us from learning how it works. Speaking of YouTube. I want to talk about a different algorithm on YouTube that no one mentions outside of comments on older videos. “Thank you YouTube recommendations”.

Happy New Years everyone! I know it is has been a while since my last post. I shall start the new years with a new real post! What will I talk about? Well, let’s talk about political con artists. I want to focus on con-servatives most of all. Also why con-servatives are easier to sniff out opposed to grifting liberals. Look, it’s not as easy to come up with an insult for the grifters on the left.

It took my lazy ass long enough but I finally fixed the comment section. For some reason none of the icons properly display but I am working on that. Right now you can login with either Twitter or Google. The blue circle is for Twitter and the orange is for Google. After you login you seem to need to refresh and then you can comment. I’ve not figured out why you need to refresh but there you go. Feel free to argue and disagree with me.
Why did I choose to use Twitter and Google? Well, I want to add more social media logins but I am working on fixing the icon issues right now. As for why I am choosing social media logins: I don’t want to expose your personal information just for you to comment on my blog. This way you can use a company you trust the most with your information. You also don’t have to worry about me selling your private information or anything. I don’t even get your email address if you login with a non-Google account. Google automatically submits it to me for some reason. Point is this is the most secure way I can offer a comment system.
Where did I go?
Hey-o everyone. Sorry for vanishing again. Things haven’t been going well. I’m not entirely sure where to start.

Recently I was listening to Pain Killer Already, or PKA, and they were talking about Mandela Effects. To me this has always been an interesting subject. Not because of the timeline shit. No. It’s because there are some that are real while not being real at the same time. What do I mean? Well, I’ll tell you the one I know for sure and how I found it out much later in life.
What is the Mandela Effect? It is the belief that something from your past has changed because you changed timelines. The reason it is named this is because many people thought Mandela died in prison. However, he never did. Instead a majority of people misremembered something. So, the conclusion is that we changed timelines. Not that something in pop culture said this and people replaced the truth with this. You can see this when people would parrot stuff said on Friends or Big Bang Theory, no matter how wrong it was. Sometimes we let TV and movies change how we see things. If it isn’t obvious I do not believe in the Mandela Effect. I find some of them interesting, especially the ones I fall victim to. However, I want to know why I fell victim to them. Why is it I remember this stuff wrong? Well, let’s go over that.

I was recently watching a Louis Rossman video where he goes over a Business Insider article about how a guy applied to over 10 jobs and only one even bothered to set up an interview. Louis had some great takes and input on the matter of a “labor shortage”. However, there is one thing Louis didn’t touch on; one I don’t think many people know about. It is the online application system every company uses. The only reason I know about this is because I had filed for unemployment and their resume class was mandatory before I could pick up a check. So, let’s a go!

Activision Blizzard sure is in some hot water these days right? Notice how I said “Activision Blizzard” and not “Activision” or even just “Blizzard”? Yeah, there’s a reason for that. Today, I am going to talk about the Activision Vivendi games merger because no one seems to understand it. “Who is Vivendi games?” you might be asking? Why, they’re the company that owned Blizzard and bought out Activision. Yes, Activision was the one bought out; with a very great reason why. Let’s go over this part of modern gaming history that is widely misunderstood and purposefully misrepresented.
Before I continue with the buyout I feel it is important to talk about the original companies. First let’s go over Activision, after all they’re first in the name. Activision was formed when a bunch of Atari programmers left Atari because they were tired of Atari’s shit. Bad management, rushed deadlines, not enough manpower, and no royalties. Atari sued them because Activision was making “illegal Atari” carts. Courts disagreed giving Activision more power to produce more games and allowing more devs from Atari to leave and form their own studios. This is what I believe to be what really killed Atari. After growing they went into more business ventures and then changed their company name. Bobby Kotick, the current CEO, then purchased the company and turned it around from bankruptcy to the powerhouse it is today.
