LOL... they were both awesome. Barns felt a little more organic.

I dunno... sounds pretty MAGA to me

Electing a female black president... totes MAGA.

A Latina call was held last week... there's been a series of these grassroots calls taking place to fundraise, organize volunteering and raise support. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kamala-harris-grassroots-organizers-raise-millions-online-campaign-first-week/

"He's going to talk about Hannibal Lecter and other weird shark shit or whatever" Line of the year

White Dudes for Harris update... "50,000 of you have RSVP’d for tomorrow’s kickoff call and we wanted to take a moment to address this milestone with a bit of emotional honesty. When we started organizing on Friday, we could never have dreamed that so many of us would come together the way we have. We are a bit shocked. But also…grateful. We are grateful to be in this with you, and grateful to be starting something really special with you. Ninety nine days from now we have an opportunity to help Kamala Harris make some history, we also have the opportunity to change some minds, to have some tough but fair conversations, to meet other white dudes where they are and to address some things that, well frankly, just haven’t been addressed. We’re in this together, and a lot of people are taking notice. That’s why Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina, Congressman Adam Schiff, Actor Misha Collins, Actor/Singer Josh Groban and Author Scott Galloway are joining our call tomorrow. They will be joining a lineup of other incredible folks like Pete Buttigeig, Ben Wikler, Josh Gad, Michael Kelly, Rory O’Malley, George Goehl and others."

Good time to bring back up The Dead Milkmen and "Tiny Town" Hello, my name is Billy Bob and I don't give a damn I got myself some white sheets straight from the Ku Klux Klan I got myself a daughter and she's a Mongoloid Because I married my sister and our gene pool's been destroyed Let's do it This is a tiny town And we don't want you comin' round This is a tiny town And we don't want you comin' round We got ourself a sheriff and his name's Bobby Joe One day he said to me, "Them punk rockers gotta go" So we hopped into his pickup truck with a gun rack on the back And we beat up on them punks and we beat up on them blacks Because This is a tiny town And we don't want you comin' round This is a tiny town And we don't want you comin' round So if you should happen to come to our little town It might be wise if you didn't hang around 'Cause we hate blacks and we hate Jews And we hate punks but we love the F.U.s Let's do it This is a tiny town And we don't want you comin' round This is a tiny town And we don't want you comin' round

It can be a tad bit distracting

I don't know man. I didn't see you out there. I think you're lying

I've said it before and I was reminded again this morning... Daniel at the Texas Rowing Dock (not to mention we have places like the Texas Rowing Dock) is a great example of why Austin kicks ass

"The past decade has been really bad for the health of the church and caused incredible damage to any sense of its moral standing. It’s hard to preach the Gospel when “Christian” rightly becomes synonymous with wickedness." #Truth The evangelical church has destroyed it's witness. It has pushed away members and many who would be part of their community. They made their bed and are happy lying in it

Likewise. Now bolverk, if you look at the soil around any large US city with a big underground homosexual population, des Moines Iowa, for example. Look at the soil around Des Moines, bolverk, you can't build on it, you can't grow anything in it, the government says it's due to poor farming, but I know what's really going on, bolverk ! I know it's the queers! They're in it with the aliens! They're building landing strips for gay Martians, I swear to God! You know what, bolverk? I like you You're not like the other people, here in the trailer park

My neighbors wouldn't let their kids watch Saturday Night Live because they made fun of the Pope

Completely agree. Our coverage sucks. Always has. Just like watching F1 and having them cut over for commercials.

As of 7:45... got some big guests We got big news…news we haven’t told ANYONE yet. We just got word that we are going to be joined by Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg on our first call! Kinda wild to think that this mornning we were just a couple of guys sending out a few texts and now we are already a movement of over 12,000 dudes who are ready to get to work electing Kamala Harris President. OH! Shit, we forgot….we also have hats! You asked for them, and we got them. Order YOUR White Dudes for Harris dude hat HERE. All proceeds are going directly to the campaign. And don’t forget, the links to both the RSVP list and the social media kit can be found at those links here. Finally, remember…the call will be this coming MONDAY, July 29th, 2024 at 8PM. We will circulate a link to the virtual event as soon as it’s available. And of course, be good to one another. Thank you all for everything you are doing Ross, Brad and the entire White Dudes for Harris team

Here you go. I'm in... https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfv8CbvFVggb-D6bQ1-oPUNULwk6f1qzkjufYGIWFiCQ0Z8RA/viewform

Went to a Wednesday show at Stubb's... several shows last Friday at other venues on Red River and honestly itching for more this weekend

I jumped ship from the R party right around 2015 and you can guess why. For context I interned on the Hill for a Republican. I worked at the 1992 Republican National Convention. I was a straight ticket R for three decades. Trump made me question a lot of things about who I had voted for and supported AND what I believed to be true and right. The past few years have only solidified that for me. I'm in the "independent" camp now although I tend to vote blue because I want to purge the political field of any kind of Trumpist candidates. I am tired of politicians being dicks. I am tired of the theater and ridiculousness from the right and its just so much bluster and lying. I want people to be decent and kind and normal with each other. I can't stand how much hate and fear is being driven on the right and its all about making those who don't believe them enemies and evil. F that. I also think it sucks that this country pretty much things "F You, I'm not helping you" when it comes to things like the common good. I want to vote for someone who wants to lift everyone up and has a positive and future-forward outlook, not a grumpy old man who is yelling at the clouds and things you (or you or you) need to go back in your place. Lastly, I care about the future for my children. I don't see a bright future with Trump. I don't know... this is written terribly. I could think of all kinds of reasons. I was behind Joe but am excited about Kamala. I'll do what I can to help her get elected.

Yup and there were some days last summer when we would hit 100 by noon.

Barns Courtney and then The Struts at Stubb's last night. Great show! Dare I say Courtney outperformed the Struts?

Mmmm taco trucks https://www.msnbc.com/all-in/watch/watch-latino-trump-supporter-warns-of-taco-trucks-756863555968

Can't speak to what female teenagers are specifically thinking (can anyone?) but my teenage son keeps talking about everyone being excited about Kamala. Granted, they're not able to vote but there's a lot of enthusiasm among the younger generations. That will pay off. None of that was happening with Biden and I'm positive it wasn't with Trump (maybe in backwoods Mississippi, though)

Ah... saw this gem... this was a response to an article showing tech bro execs are lining up behind MAGA. This is something.
