2022 LC Thread—New Year, New Thread

Should I know what a Clay Travis is?

I’ve seen his name kicked around here, but couldn’t tell you the first thing about what he does.

Nah. He’s a mash up of conservative politics and sports radio guy. Runs a shitty outfit called outkick. You’ll be shocked to find out he shows up on fox college football pregame sometimes.

I don’t even bother checking any more when Weiss or Mahr are trending.

That’s what they would say if one super intelligent mutant monkey escaped.

That guy either doesn’t get it or doesn’t care. The goal is to delegitimize and defund public education. States could go after private schools for these same issues and they chose not to. People think of private schools as evangelical madrassas but many have more liberal curricula than public schools. CRT “controversy” gets right wingers to vote to defund and moderates who can afford it to move their kids to private schools to get an actual education. Throw in some stuff about lazy fat cat teachers and the childless libs are on board too.

The point of the trenches is to provide cover against the bombs and missiles. Not perfect, but way way better than the alternative.

Kind of want to make a first one is free drug dealer joke but yeah seems good.

Hopefully? My trust of billionaires is not high, so I’m awaiting the discovery of the eventual gotcha.

The catch is that Cuban gets his own private Wu Tang album.

scientists are already at work looking for gotchas.

Maybe you have to pay in bitcoin.

When volunteers at Venue Church in Chattanooga, Tennessee, arrived at their pastor’s house last November, they were hoping to raise his spirits with a surprise visit. Instead they got a shock: Pastor Tavner Smith was alone with a female church employee—she in a towel, he in his boxers.

The charismatic 41-year-old hurriedly explained that the two of them had been making chili and hot dogs and gotten food on their clothes, according to one volunteer who was present. But, as the volunteer put it, “I don’t think none of us was that dumb.”

“If she dropped chili on her clothes, why are you in your boxers?” she recalled thinking. “Was y’all like, throwing chili at each other?”

I hope its an actual videotape, like a VHS cassette they hand around. Or play for a group on one of those wheeling trolley things they had in elementary schools in the 80s.

I saw Thursday in a little Minneapolis venue while in high school, they were great. I would 100% go to that show especially with it being in LV.

I would add Thrice to the lineup
