    How gay is that?! They need to have their own party, because they aren’t welcome at the regular one. Such cry babies with their safe spaces and delicate feelings.

      Football can be described in so many fun ways.

      Years ago when my rep was cosponsoring some bill about how video games were killing children my buddy sent him a letter. I don’t remember the exact contents but it pointed out the rich history in Texas of folks wearing different colors violently defending their turf from rivals. Schools are training high schoolers to how to be in a gang as a sponsored activity every Friday evening.

      There’s a very high probability that TP’s half time show is going to be way gayer than the real one, just unintentionally.

    It must be so sad to belong to the drab old culture MAGA idolizes, and watch the entire world just move the fuck on constantly, not giving a single shit, when you think that football-and-Jesus culture is some kind of temple eternal.

      Kid Rock and Ted Nugent would be my guess. But I mean, you could swing a dead cat and hit like six or seven country/western singers who hate dark-skinned and/or LGBTQ+ Americans in a given honky-tonk, so they’ll have no shortage of talent. And, make no mistake, some of these people are talented… but if they just use that talent to try to further divide the poor people for the benefit of the wealthy, I don’t think they are worthy of my attention.
