    “Fellas, is it gay to use a straw?”

    Fragile snowflake weirdos more obsessed with dicks than I am, and I’m gay as fuck.

    Who the fuck doesn’t drink a milkshake with a straw?

    Are all these strawless non-gay heterosexual manly men walking around with milk mustaches like 5 year olds? Is this what women are into?

      No, these strawless, non-gay, heterosexual, manly men are just like me. They were handed a spoon, but not a straw in the drive through and they decided to just drive off rather than bother or inconvenience someone, even though it wouldn’t be a bother or inconvenience, it’s the person’s job, and they’d be happy to help. I am married though, so while I wouldn’t say my wife is specifically attracted to that brand of social awkwardness, she’s not entirely repulsed by it.

      I really prefer my milkshakes at the level of ‘the-straw-barely-closes-when-you-suck-so-you-gotta-use-a-spoon’ but not to the firmness of ice cream itself.

      So… me?

    They know they are full of shit. The know they are lying.

    They are just evil cunts that spread hate and lies to manipulate people.

    I’ve said it before. There are only 2 types of right wingers. They are either stupid or evil. Sometimes both. But it’s always at least one of the 2.

      here are only 2 types of right wingers. They are either stupid or evil. Sometimes both.

      True, but I know people who are other categories. They have mental and/or social issues. The big social issue is tribalism - some go along to get along to survive in their social and work environments.

        I know plenty of people with social issues that try to support others instead of being whiny conservatives and shit. Social issues are important to consider in how to address a lot of that stuff but the people themselves, at some point, need to take responsibility for acting out like they do.

      I know some intelligent Trumpets, and the mental gymnastics they make is a Simone Biles level event.

      Maybe that’s “evil” but they see themselves as “good” and doing the right thing.

      I think it’s a third category. “Brainwashed”, or something.

    No, what it tells me is how little dirt you have to sling at Walz.

    Whereas Trump is a twice-impeached felon with dozens of convictions and a judge had to remind people in court that he raped the defamation litigant. He also insults disabled people and veterans and lies with every breath. Oh, and he participated in a failed coup against the American People. Trump and Fox “News” should stop attacking their betters…

    I don’t think women in general love trump. I think that’s a difficult demo for him. Sure I can find a few at his events but the average woman really doesn’t like him. Does that mean he’s not masculine? They are just inventing little things to be on the surface of what is and isn’t masculine. Walz has the only core masculine traits I can think of. He loves and takes care of his family. Everything else is superfluous window dressing. These guys only care about dressing though.

      He does display more than those traditionally masculine traits. He portrays himself as a protector of the vulnerable and a provider. Making sure women and children are safe and provided for is very traditionally masculine. He has made it a point of his political career to help children, and as an ex-member of the national guard, he can claim that “protector” archetype.

      This is not to say that there aren’t problems with traditional masculinity, but there’s more to it than just family.

        That’s a good point. A family doesn’t just have to be your flesh and blood though. It can be your community as well, but I know I wasn’t thinking that even though I should have been. I don’t see much of the leadership on the trump team expressing love to even their flesh and blood even if I do apply a strict definition of family.

    You guys know that I like to play with AI, so I asked AI what to make of this news channel. The AI told me to delete this meme because it has to be fake because no news channel would ever have aired that chyron nor have said such a ridiculous statement on prime time television.

    Guys, this is real. September 4, 2024. The bottom right image was added for relating to the topic.

      What are you talking about? He broke the story that voting for a woman turns a man into a woman! Trans people will be thrilled to learn about this shortcut to gender reassignment. He’s a hero for trans rights.

    We need to pass legislation that enforces standards around the use of the word “news.” We could wipe out a number of media hacks just with that.

      Fox news was brought to court over fake news. They lost and had to pay 6 months of revenue. But their argument in court was not that they didn’t have fake news, but that they are an entertainment channel, not a news channel.

      I agree with the sentiment, but I always worry about the extreme 100 years from now

      I could definitely see a corrupt government using that legislation to eliminate any news agencies that speak against them

    "Did you see the size of Walz’s hands compared to the cup? They were so tiny, completely emasculating!

    And his makeup, yeah he wears it, but they couldn’t even match it to his skin tone, it was so orange… Hmmm, wait a minute?" 🤔🤣

      If I were working at Fox News and shit like this was scheduled, I’d intercut the monologue with pictures of Trump doing exactly what they say is weird.

      I’d want the talking head to eventually stop and say, “Wait…why are we showing pictures of Trump?”

    How the fuck else are you supposed to drink a shake? One scoop at a time with a spoon? Slurp it straight from the cup?

    Or is ice cream just no acceptable for men altogether?
