To set my POV, I'm an elder millenial (b. 1981) white woman with a journalism degree who has exclusively worked in big tech marketing and PR my entire career. I understand what Bozo is getting at re: addressing why so many younger men are disillusioned with progressive politics and that we need to better address it if we want to win them over from the MAGA side. This article, however, is a poor avenue for a good discussion around this because the author is a whiny ass bitch. For much of this article, I kept thinking "no shit, that's something every generation of non-white, non-male has felt at some point. It's not poignant just because now YOU personally are feeling this pain." Some of it made me laugh out loud at the lack of self-awareness. Allow me to provide examples: I also have two boys - Gen Z and Gen Alpha. Straight white males. What do I say when they ask about their hopes and dreams? Something along the lines of: "The world isn't fair, but in the vast majority of scenarios you already have a leg up being straight white boys. You do have to work hard, and you might get passed up sometimes for objectively unfair reasons. You might lose when you deserve to win. This happens to most people and is not unique to you or your circumstances. When it happens to you - and it will - you will not improve things by getting angry and spiraling and creating viral TikToks about it. All that gets you is surrounded by more anger and hatred. Look for ways to effect change without wallowing in your hurt. Talk to people in real life and not just online." I don't know what to say to guys like Jacob Savage. I'm sorry that attempts to reverse hundreds of years of discrimination against others have resulted in you feeling like sometimes you got passed over for jobs because of who you are?

The g5 should only get 1 spot and only for an undefeated team. If more than 1 team is undefeated then the 2 highest ranked teams play each other for the spot. If no g5 are undefeated then no g5 in the playoffs.

How was that not a personal foul? Total cheap shot running over someone from behind.
-
This is correct. It had one team run out to 17 point early lead, get reeled in and passed, score one TD late to make it close and then ended with OU sucking.

But auto qualifiers for winning crappy conferences are dumb. -
TIL there’s something called fraud tourism. Congrats, Minnesota.

Thanks for clearing that up. -
Oklahoma vs Alabama was an entertaining game and the best of the 4

OU got their ass kicked, A&M got their ass kicked, and I just bought a Powerball ticket for the $1.5 billion dollar jackpot. This weekend has the potential of being one of the greatest in human history.

Is that the same guy that did the one before the Texas game? Voice sounds familiar
-
It's an interesting situation. I don't think any human being no matter how knowledgeable knows how tech is going to handle real competition. Can the tech coaches have the kids ready to just not out-talent the competition? Hope Oregon punishes em

The Oregon offense vs the Tech defense should be fun to watch. -

Just put the main camera on the Oregon dance girls and have the game run in a small window at the bottom. -
We beat A&M and OU and I feel pretty comfortable saying we would beat Miami, JMU, Tulane, Ole Miss, and Bama. I also think we could beat Oregon. Vandy is probably right there too. Great job, committee
-
I said when it was announced that Oregon has the easiest path. Tech is good, but not like the other 3.
-
Hope this game keeps oregon in rhythm so they cornhole tech in style

The only qualifiers I do like are automatic qualifiers. If you can’t win your conference you don’t belong in any playoffs. -
Oregon probably going to beat tech

Compensation & WFH debate ($120K vs 240K)
ClubWhatever replied to Nice Guy Eddie's topic in Daily Texan
If you make $240k and someone else is willing and able to do it for $120k you are going to get laid off. -

They're getting to play a jv team. Oregon has been overhyped for 30 years and hasn't won shit -
I don’t know why and Love isn’t a bad QB and is in fact quite good at times but I’m just ambivalent about him.
