  Ladies and Gentlemen, My Name Is Paul Heyman 2014

  ★★★½ Watched 01 Apr 2025

  Very interesting and eye-opening documentaries about wrestling's most enigmatic & creative hustlers in the profession, including the rise and fall of ECW, which I feel is why a lot of people would watch this, or learn more about the manager behind Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns.

Social structures and the internet is evolving far too fast for anyone to cope with and it's killing lives, stagnating development and filling us with (more hatred). Every step of the system, from parents, to schools to eachother, are failing…

  Liked 2024

  ★★★ Watched 15 Feb 2025

  Liked did a stellar job setting a very eerie mood that went through a whole rollercoaster of negative emotions and distractions in a short space of time, including the unique pitfalls of mental health neglect as you prioritise work/content creation, chasing likes and fame/clout, turning into something of a hollow version of what you started out to be, chasing engagement, sponsorship deals etc. as you put on a brave mask. As a content creator myself, see the unsubtle depictions of…
