State Of The Blog – November 2024

What was supposed to be following an entirely cromulent October-wide marathon turned out to be a month curtailed by illness, disease, and family emergencies galore. I suppose I should happy that three out of five weeks ain’t bad. Will do better next year… maybe.

There’s a lot of things that I’d like to do better next year, but I’ll save that for the next State Of The Blog, which I hope will be more timelier than this one has been. Sadly, things behind the scenes haven’t been too cozy and I haven’t had as much time keeping up with things around here. Hence the general lack of quality control (posts with wrong video embeds or descriptors, incomplete posts published out of nowhere, etc.).

I wouldn’t expect much out of this month. The usual batch of video reviews and PPV musings… maybe a comic review or two, but I’m most focusing on getting this last batch of stuff out of the way so that I can focus on material for next year… which I hope will run more smoothly. For the moment, I just want something a little more stable and manageable for the closing months of 2024,  which is all I could ever ask for… or at least, scratch off the “Would Be Nice” list.

This is the part where I would segue into a brief touch on the need for stability down south, but there’s already a Bite commentary that covers my feelings just fine… and then I recorded about fifteen minutes of audio for the next DTM-Cast to talk about this further. Fortunately, it’ll be the first fifteen minutes of the show that you can easily skip if you just want to hear the fun stuff.

In any event, click the break for the planned but subject to change schedule of videos and PPV musings. Anything else that pops up along the way for the next six weeks is considered a bonus.

VIDEO SCHEDULE
So reviews are back to a 3-per-week cycle (Monday, Wednesday, Friday… mostly). Only thing for sure outside of the usual review cycle is the DTM-Cast towards the end of the month. From there… fuck knows?

PPV MUSINGS
After a month’s hiatus, PPV Musings return and it’s mostly TNA PPVs from 2006-07… although I do talk about last month’s Bad Blood PPV from WWE. I was intending on musings for TNA’s Bound For Glory show… but then it happened and if you want my thoughts on that show, the last episode of the DTM-Cast opens with those very thoughts and that’s all I’m going to say about that…
