Welcome to another edition of YOUR MIDWEEK LINKS, where I give you the best online #content from the past week for you to blow your hump day lunch break on. Hell yeah! This week's offerings include some heavy stuff, including an essay on a sexual assault survivor learning to handle live wrestling, why wrestlers feel the need to self-immolate for the entertainment of the live crowd, and in the non-wrestling department, an essay pinning where Donald Trump's real support comes from. Hint, it's not the poor hillfolk liberal media likes to blame him on!
