  1. I don't remember but you're assessment of their cunty nature is accurate.
  2. this fucking pitcher throwing heat but missing, 34 pitches still second inning, bro gunna get rundt out.
  3. we're going to start a tradition of Regional Ethan, and I'll take it.
  4. jesus kids today with these pornstaches, I mean they are worse than the kids wearing birkenstocks with socks. 100% not attractive.
  5. we came to fuck somebody's shit up.
  6. they could choose to stop sending me so many fucking fundraising texts too but they choose not to.
  7. we already manipulated the schedules in football AND baseball to make sure we got an easy SEC SEC SEC schedule. so there is some truth to the BOMC, has it has been, it always will be when you share the conference with idoits, not just oklahoma freakshow. looking at you pumpkin patch hayseed aggies.
  8. so glad dems didn't do this for the voting rights act, the federal equality act, really did pay off in spades to trust the good faith of republicans.
  9. The first primary care doctor that knows anything of consequence about Covid beyond cursory crap you can find on webMD will be the first.
  10. my mom hasn't had it either. they don't know why these people seem to be immune. one theory is they do get it, it's just undetected and sloughed off easily. either way same result, never got it, or it never took real hold. it's the opposite of those who get absolutely fucking annihilated by it, probably 5% on each side. everyone else in the middle.
  11. fair enough, but 5-6% develop long covid which is not a nuisance it's pure fucking misery and some never recover. we can treat it as a nuisance but I think it wise to not fuck around with it. talk to folks with long term uncured chronic fatigue, or neuopathy, brain fog that's debilitating, etc. awful. get paxlovid, if you have a risk for long covid take metformin too. there's a whole legit protocol beyond that (supps, diet, etc.) backed by the long covid clincs which I highly recommend. primary care doctors are woefully unprepared and uneducated. specialists suck too, don't get me started on the cardiologist that said take two ibuprofen and don't call me in the morning. it's a multi organ disease when you get long covid. there are ways out of it, but it's right now treatment protocols entirely up to the sophistication and resources of the patient. off shoot disorders are common from long covid and it can result in permanent disorders and long term damage. it's a silent serious debilitating epidemic that EVERYONE ignores. it's actually the chief driver in the labor shortage from 2021-recently. covid is also emerging as a top reason why older folks die. it can accelerate dementia. that damn virus can fuck up any organ system it gets its hands on. yes, for 95% of patients without risk (age or otherwise) it should be ok, but when it's not, it's fucking bad. and 5% rate of covid turning to long covid is not a small number of people. it stacks up. as for the vaccine, it's really simple. if you are susceptible to micro clots both covid and the vaccine can harm you. if you are not, you're likely fine with the vaccine. the other disorders like respiratory function, brain disorders, multi organ injury the vaccine can help. micro vascular disorders and cardiac injury from micro vascular clotting is the one area that the vaccine can really harm you if your susceptible to those clotting disorders arising from the spike protein (present in the virus and vaccine). I'll be honest, i'm on the fence re the vaccine because I did have cardiac and micro-vascular issues.
  12. I wear a properly fitted N95 now every time we fly, every time. long covid will do that to you. I also have the bands that go horizontal around my head and neck and not around my ears and I have a 3M version that has an exhale valve. It's actually quite nice for a mask, not uncomfortable, not hard to breathe and doesn't fog up my glasses. bonus points I can do resting bitch face all day long and not advance my smile wrinkles. I also don't have to smell e. coli ass rips in the bathroom either. I win.
  13. you know I'm sure but there are literallly thousands of pools being dug up and redone most at homeowner expense because coverage was maxed out, coverage denied, and/or company went kaput.
  14. need an @everyone feature... annoying as fuck on the socials but would be ideal right now.
  15. dog, I said I was first, don't give a fuck if I'm not a dude, I'll mix and mingle.
  16. dat forehead tho. and the fake teeth, orange skin, I bet he claims to love jesus doesn't he?
  17. fair points on booker. coach - put me in!!!
  18. disagree, we live in the trump era. he can rape women and appeal to this demo. we have to trash the double standard. right now we have pete, bernie, if you take booker out, then who else? turn hogg loose I guess. who else?
  19. booker is probably the best. and he can rile you up in a speech. can he have a coffee table convo with dudes? dunno. but I can see it clearly in a convo (here's just two rando topics that come to mind - trump is a rapist and the Texas lege is stealing from kids) - hey man (whatever conservative podcaster he's talking to), I get you like trump, he's got a lot to say, doesn't apologize for being a man, acts tough. those are cool things, right? But dude, the man has been found liable for rape... MULTIPLE TIMES! I mean seriously, we're going to celebrate a man who rapes women? really? and while we're celebrating, you see the Texas legislature run victory laps over lying to the public about vouchers and funding kids education? Those dudes had the freaking audacity to strangle funding for 6 years until they got their way. kids suffered man, budgets are jacked. districts may even have to cut sports programming, I'm not kidding. What did they do? They took $10K away for each kid and then only agreed to pay $55 for those who stay in public education. it's like less than a 1% increase. I know some of this is complex, but let's just break it down. It's stealing. AND THOSE PRICKS CELEBRATE IT. we gotta do better man.
  20. who let the fucking academic in ? tl;dr jk love ya bruh.
  21. need more outrage, need more one liners, need more shock and awe. need better communicators, need strong men really. the subject matter is there. even the social / culture issues like LGBTQ rights can be super easy with the right one liners, shock and awe, and strongmen who communicate well.
  22. I wonder why I got swept up in religion as a college student - I think I have a natural evangelist personality on some things … holy shit, if you are on the fence and lurking about weight training, START RIGHT NOW! I was all in at 40-42 and was in the best shape of my life. Tennis elbow (14 months), life, pandemic, post pandemic emotional malaise, actual covid, long Covid, derailed me. But as I’ve posted 3-4 months ago I said fuck it I’m back in the gym. I read an article that talked about aging rapidly at 44 or so and think damn I missed that window. The last 5 years I’ve been tired, all the time. I’m sure it’s true about rapid aging at key moments, but the impact is vastly over rated. Weight training !!! My energy is BACK! Monday hard weight day, whole body, 3 sets of 10 moderate weight (I leg press 130 / bench 50 on a hard day - you get the context and it goes all around the circuit). I go fast with limited breaks to make sure I get the heart work out too. Yesterday a 90 min tennis work out with extreme cerebral training to go with the intensity of a real tennis practice. The key point is my body didn’t drag my mind down, I was able to focus because I wasn’t tired. HUGE! today tennis for 60 minutes and HIIT with my trainer for 60. THEN my boys want to go wake surfing at sundown. LET’S GO!! I’ve got a down day Thursday with merely a 60 minute tennis practice. son wants to kayak Sunday! 5-6 hour float. Can’t wait! I’ll be tired Friday and Saturday but for good reason we are going hard this week, both “days off” but damn folks, I feel like I’m 38 again. I’m happy, energetic, my midlife doom mood is gone. I’m cloud 9 all the time. I feel confident (in the face of some shitastic external hardships facing people like me). I love my body, I’ve got those outer quads defining like I’m a fucking tennis player!! A toned body is so fucking sexy, I love it! it’s a freaking miracle. I’m full circle. If you are lurking and thinking about weight training, I think it (especially fast with disciplined and limited rest between sets and stations) is the single most important exercise you can do for your whole self. join us! It’s amazing!
  23. Appreciate you. Everyone DONATE SOME FUCKING MONEY TO THIS PLACE. Jesus.
  24. I’m sitting here thinking about the Texas oil companies wanting the license to dump fracked / treated water into our water ways and public drinking water sources AND statutory immunity from liability when they do this. there no fucking way you can’t have an ordinary person talk about the absurdity of this request and the bullshit of Republican corruption. No way it won’t resonate. bro culture may be into toughness but who the fuck wants their water killing them? gotta get out there and talk about it. There are 100 issues like that.
