  1. If Kelee Ringo couldn't pick up a pretty girl in ATX over two weeks, that seems like more of a Kelee problem rather than a UT problem.

  8. They can feel whatever the fuck they want to, but those words were written some 40 years after slavery to mock the university president at a campus with only white students, faculty, and administrators. Only a dense person would relate those words to slavery after being made aware of those facts. The words have nothing to do with slavery because there had been no slaves for 40 years.

  12. America is entirely fucked up when it comes to mental health. The only reason I am awake right now is that I have a neighbor with dementia who has no next of kin. She has a city social worker already assigned to her and has had multiple supposed court dates that come and pass. Yet almost every night between 2 and 4 am, she bangs on our door for one reason or another, and she remembers none of it. In her mind, reasons exist, and I get that, and its sad. Her partner left a year ago to an assisted living facility and is never coming back. She screams for her in the hallway 10 to 20 times per day. She thinks she got lost checking the mail. But the biggest problem is that she refuses all medical attention. She feels faint because she has dementia and forgets to eat, but in what's left of her mind, that isn't possible. She truly feels that she can only feel faint because of an outside factor. So she thinks there is gas. However, the gas has been completely shut off in her apartment for nearly a year. Worse, meals on wheels abandoned her during covid as well. So we also provide pretty much the entirety of her sustenance. And we aren't allowed to reinstate meals on wheels because we aren't next of kin. And nobody can do anything really. She is going to eventually die alone in her apartment even though she could have had a few good years in a facility or even with a home visit nurse. My options are to stop feeding her and let her die, or get her arrested after filing nuisance and harassment complaints against her because she bangs our door nightly. None of these options are good for me, and I live in a city that supposedly gives a shit.

  14. Many like the drama of being offended. The song wasn’t targeting blacks, and until kids were told that they needed to be offended, no one in like...forever thought of it as such. And I actually like The Eyes of Texas. Besides being unifying for Texas fans, it’s just about the only school song (not fight song, dammit) that anyone recognizes unless they went to the school.

  18. Pic of our new bass as requested. It’s a 2005 CIJ ‘62 reissue. It’s been a few years since I had a bass with flats. I liked them a lot, but at the time I also had a second bass with round wounds. I really like the fit and feel of this new bass, and I’m already thinking of selling my other long scale. But maybe having two long scales is the answer. And yeah, I’m not interested in swapping flats and rounds on this bass. I’m gonna be taking it to my luthier to get a new nut, so I want to have it setup with new strings and then not have to mess with it for a while. Flat wounds last forever too, which is another reason I’m tempted to go with them on this bass. I think I’m gonna have this one for a while.

  22. There is no defining generation x movie, as you say, and there never will be. There is a defining line between generation x though and a millennial. And it’s this. If you get arrested and you’re a millennial, the first person you would call is your parents. If you’re generation x, however, the last person you would call is your parents.

  25. Well, one unproven anecdote written on the internet doesn’t erase the good work I see daily with my own eyes. This pandemic isn’t unique in its problems - medical incompetence does happen daily. To ascribe all incompetence to every failing is dumb and unfair. Our government and our system of healthcare and leadership at some hospitals are proving much more deadly in this pandemic than one nurse being “too tired”. But I understand it’s much more satisfying to lay blame at the mythical bad nurse or doctor than face the rot in the leadership of our government and the way this country practices the business of healthcare.

  29. A few years back, there was some Beatles tribute at the Kennedy Center. Elvis Costello wanted to do "Penny Lane" but he needed a piccolo trumpet player. he checked with the union halls and came up empty. Then, he checked "The President's Own".

  31. Won't change anything for us. Kyler Murray ran Lincoln's offense basically as well as it can possibly be run, and we still almost beat them twice. If he ever figures out how to coach a defense on the other hand, that would spell doom for us.

  32. lulz what a bitchmade post We celebrate because the United States is better than what came before it. It represents a step on the road to perfection. (Hint: perfection will never be attained) United States independence from England was a victory for good and that's why it should be celebrated. You don't have to think America is perfect to realize being controlled by a monarch across the ocean was worse. Much work remains, but if you don't celebrate the small victories along the way then you'll end up being a quitter like the ones you're whining about.

  33. I realize it’s not a popular opinion, but let’s at least be honest about football players and their “free education”. Are there half a dozen players on the team who will play meaningful time in the NFL and make significant money doing so? Yes, and they are probably not receiving their market value playing in college (unless they are SEC) AND are physically ready for that profession. There are more with future potential but they still need physical training, positional coaching, nutrition, and mental maturity to get to that level and be successful. Are there >75 players who will never reach the NFL who are being “paid” tuition, books, room, meals, tutors, very high level medical treatment, along with an allowance? Meals alone, how do the football players meals compare to what you ate in college? There is no Golden Corral in the North end zone. It’s true those don’t amount to an actual tax free wage that you can save or spend at your own discretion, but they are the trade off for representing the university as a student athlete. For the great majority of players football represents an opportunity to get a degree for playing a game a lot of them actually want to play. How many HS senior football players are relieved when the reality sets in that they will never play organized football again just as they are starting to hit their prime physical condition in life? A few? How many would jump at the chance to keep playing, all the benefits aside? Probably a lot of them. Surely there are players playing only as a means to an end, like a chance to escape poverty. Well, the NFL might be a golden ticket, but a college degree in a surer bet. How many players get a more prestigious degree and better connections than they would have otherwise from academics alone? More than a few. Most kids play football because they grew up loving the sport. I mentioned high level medical care and I absolutely acknowledge that a lot of that care and treatment is a result of injuries from playing football. Though how many players have prior injuries that are remedied after they enroll? Or conditions not football related who end up with top specialists that would not have been available otherwise? We have quite a few just on our team alone. I don’t disagree with most of what you post, it’s the hyperbole that gets stale. This “great melting pot” of a country has some long overdue change that’s needed, the whole concept of race needs to be removed from the equation. We are all people, good, bad, ugly, beautiful, whatever... we need to move on from the social construct of race and focus on our species and our relationship with the planet and beyond. But the near-term demands of social equity and wether or not athletes get paid are two very different subjects. Yeah, most college football players think they are going to the NFL, so yeah they are underpaid at this point in their career. But reality speaks otherwise and most of them are being compensated quite well for a teenager playing a sport.

  34. And I’m guessing a bunch of old white men don’t really care to sit and negotiate with a bunch of eighteen and nineteen year olds who “heard” that the Eyes has racist origins and decided, based on that extensive research, that it’s an offensive song. But you go ahead and play the “white men googling shit” theory.
