  1. We had the FCA kids, too. It was kind of a weird deal that I had some trouble wrapping my head around. In early high school, I was still in the thrall of Reaganism because I was being raised in a Republican Southern Baptist household and still called myself a Christian at the time, but the notion that Christianity was linked to athletic performance didn’t really settle with me. It just felt a little fake, ya know? Like a bad taste in my mouth kind of thing. Then, there was the whole FFA vs. FCA confusion that I could never keep very straight because all the FFA kids were also in the FCA. I dunno; I’ve never been good with acronyms, but the blue jackets helped sort it out sometimes.
  2. Hold up. In the confirmation hearing, Hegseth was seriously asked how many push-ups he does/did/could do? Y'all are joking, right? Right???
  3. Quite cold to very cold in the Wastes of West Texas.
  4. Welcome back! You were sorely missed.
  5. https://archive.is/Ko8eR Was this common knowledge before? Because I didn't have a clue. Fuck!

  7. What a fun little show and nice surprise that turned out to be. Got serious ET vibes when the kids all took off in the forest on their bikes.
  8. Correct me if I'm wrong, but a lot of shit going on in America feels a bit like the mid-to-late 1980s. It's crossed my mind a couple of times, but this really brings back that decade when we had fashionable & performative high school popularity contest bullshit like: WWJD bracelets Choose Life T-shirts Prayer around the (flag)Pole A bunch of fucking Alex Keatons running around (this time with podcasts) I dunno. Maybe I'm off base and just matching up various memories to get a handle on things, but it does have that overall vibe.
  9. I didn't have US183 on ignore before his "Do you know what the queers are doing to our soil?" posts. He is now.
  10. Thanks for catching that. Fixed.
  11. Normally, I get a little irked when people quote @Incredulity. Today, knowing that he got TrIgGeReD by me pointing out a prejudiced POS, put a little smile on my face.
  12. If anyone hasn't yet had the chance to neg a motherfucker yet over being a bigoted shitstain who blames the wildfires on DEI and lesbian bullshit, I've got some great news for you. Here are three of them, nearly in a row, starting with this one:
  13. All of your politically oriented and unoriginal questions/concerns have been discussed and given fairly thorough and technical answers by at least one subject matter expert in the Daily Texan thread. It might behoove you to digest the posts in that thread before popping off in the Cloak Room. Just my two cents.
  14. I guess it’s easy to blame the fires on Californians being woke treehuggers or whatever if you've forgotten the worst wildfire in Texas history was last February.
  15. There's still some shuffling that's going to take place for the 2025 season, but to the best of my ability, the following is how the conferences should look in 2026 once all of the announcements have finally taken place. Of course, the PAC still needs one more slot filled to make 8 full members who play FBS football. Y'all let me know if there are any errors.

  17. That's happening because he posts a post posting another post. He needs to just post the original post. post post post post post post post post post post
  18. What types of internet restrictions do they have in England? Not a gotcha, legitimate question. I'm wholly unfamiliar.
  19. Weaponizing Musk in Europe: cold hard cash, meet-ups with neo-nazis & nationalists, and threats of tariffs.
  20. An assessment of our relations with the Middle East, especially the Gulf States.

  22. Price gougers, looters, conspiracists...
  23. That's hilarious since I just chose an outfit just like that for a reservation I placed next weekend at a lovely Thai restaurant in downtown Nuuk, where I'll be looking at a few real estate investment opportunities to round out my portfolio.
