Taylor Swift: Hating on gay people doesn't make them less gay.
Hip New Alternative: Actually, having a wife and getting her something is gay.

But then I realized, the number of people who watch Matt Walsh and are married has got to be drat small

If you were wondering what they gayest thing in the world is, which clearly proves beyond a doubt that you are definitely gay, Matt Walsh has the answer.

Buying a gift for your wife.

“What happened tonight is appalling– the media calling the race for Donald Trump before votes had been cast. I personally spoke in multiple precincts in front of hundreds of voters. And while I’m presenting and delivering the closing arguments around just for Ron DeSantis, and actually flipping voters, people start getting alerts on their phone saying the race is over before they’ve even…one guy said, why why do we even bother voting if it’s already over? That is absurd.” – DeSantis campaign spokesman Andrew Romeo.

It's loving wild that there's an entire industry of dudes videoing themselves painstakingly explaining every single way they're a massive loser and then saying "but being a massive loser is totally masculine" at the end

Part of me really thinks that some of these guys say stuff like this because they know it draws attention and they may get some people who agree that they shouldn't have to make an effort in their relationships. The kind of guy who thinks it's totally cool that his dad would get his mom a vacuum for her birthday and wishes he could get away with the same. On the other hand, it's extremely weird that pretty much every sign of affection men can show their partners is considered "gay" by a subset of conservative influencers to the point where "fellas, is it gay to..." is a meme format. The obsession with being masculine equaling being an rear end in a top hat or not enjoying specific things is another easy method to not only to stir up engagement, but it lets them start an argument that X or Y isn't a real man because they do A and not B and start targeting people in the news/media.

Edit: Wait. Are those pizzas from Casey's General Store? Isn't that basically a 7-11 for flyover states?

What’s so funny about this kind of poo poo, the fact that he brings TERRIBLE pizza and the like, is that his campaign can’t even do the barest bit of research to help endear themselves (also it’s crazy that they don’t need to but still) to the locals by figuring out where the “good spots” are in these small towns. Like, you don’t visit a small town and hit up Denny’s for breakfast, you go to the diner.

Instead he just brings a bunch of gas station pizza because he can’t be bothered to have his people call a local pizza spot.

This is literally how it's always worked in all modern elections. Once someone is mathematically the winner, the race is called.

Casey's is a local pizza spot to a lot of people in Iowa. People there generally like it.

On the other hand, public party primaries and caucuses are stupid and don't necessarily produce good candidates and should be eliminated. We're like basically the only country that does them. It just leads to people pandering to morons.

"Breaking news! Trump has enough votes that it's literally, mathematically, impossible for him to lose or his competitors to win! We can't call the race yet though, because that would be interference. Just giving you the information, interpret it as you please. Anything can happen maybe! Except it can't. Mathematically. But we're not saying he won because that wouldn't be fair."

That reminds me of a few towns in Indiana I've had to stay overnight in for one reason or another over the years, and the local hotspot/diner for them was literally whatever restaurant was part of the local truck stop. Some were lucky and actually got like a diner-type place with a (small) variety of dishes, but others were stuck with Wendy's, McDonald's, etc.

E: also this is the best result. Trump thought he was going to cruise to victory in Iowa with a huge majority, showing that he still ruled the GOP with his (tiny) iron fist. Instead he got just a little over half the vote; meaning--as some have pointed out--that he's not completely unassailable, because 49% of Iowa GOP primary voters turned out in freezing cold weather to vote against him. :laugh:

Casey’s is going to be the only spot in town in a lot of these places. Not just for restaurant choice either, sometimes it’ll be the only store in town period.

Normally election boards don't even start posting results until the polls close, so I assume Iowa getting called prior to that is yet another byproduct of the caucus process being dumb as hell.

How the heck did DeSantis get elected Governor of Florida? I know Florida is Chud Central, but he seems to not have an instinctual political bone in his body. Did he face no competition in Florida? Was his opponent (Republican) that bad?

Beating the Dems, sure, but how did he get nominated?
