People on here never cease to surprise me. I've just seen someone refer to the Bible Belt in a wholly non pejorative way, but to refer to the Midwest. When pressed they said "the South is not the Bible Belt, nor is it the East Coast." I'm learning so much

Hillbilly Elegy solidified a racial archetype in the Hillbilly - theorized as a depraved white who lost the mandate of whiteness through our cultural devolution. They have now introduced Heritage American as the logical corollary - "good" whites who are the true and pure inheritors of the country

Nothing fills me with more Christmas spirit than that clip of the guy from Red State Update telling Pinhead from Hellraiser he looks like "Cracker Barrel Game"

I feel like it is kind of going unsaid that the people losing their jobs because a student said they didn't praise the Bible enough or whatever are all contingent - VAPs, lectures, instructor, graduate teaching assistants

Unrionically enjoy the Merry Christmas Lil Mama albums and feel like there should be more regional dance themed contemporary holiday music

Much of 20th century country music is preoccupied with the question "what if Christmas was sad?"

Does anyone know who the editor for the 33 1/3 Global Series is? I want to try to pitch them on starting a North Asia or Eurasia series

This is a crazy watch honestly. They pair this narrator who is very authoritatively not saying the name of the region correctly with what comes off to me as a frenetic, frenzied pace of delivering Look How Poor These People Are punchlines. A wild ride
