I tried to verify my age on Discord with a facial scan, and it gave me the number of a good plastic surgeon. No respect, I tell ya. No respect.

Premised on the belief that there are "wrong" bodies.
The cultural obsession with nutrition and bodily “optimization” is and always has been deeply fascist.

Trivia: In the past 10 years, Kid Rock and I have had the exact same number of songs chart on the Billboard Top 100.
It's weird that Kid Rock didn't play any of his more recent hits during the All-American Halftime Show.

Imagine the world you've constructed for yourself being so delicate that a 15-minute halftime show might threaten to destroy it.

You're down 0-6 and headed toward halftime. If you aren't attaching an elastic band to the football and hurling it downfield, only to have it spring back to your hand, leaving the defense scattered and confused, what are you even doing?

"Ditka was out to kick butt and take names. He didn't just want to win. He wanted to pound his opponent into submission. Don’t hold back. Never ease up. That’s how he played. That’s how he coaches his Chicago Bears. Nothing less than the ultimate. That’s the philosophy of Mike Ditka."

I think someone should Moneyball the Puppy Bowl this year. Forget about star power and just bring in a bunch of low-cost unlovable mutts that know how to move the chains.
