@Anybodyhome by the way, in case they haven't explained identity politics to you on the one news channel you watch, it's sort of like when your favorite football team drafts a shitty player and you buy his jersey anyway. Go team, I guess.

I don't watch any news on any channel.

Nor do I have a "favorite team."

Nor do I identify with any one political party.

Sorry, I can only give you credit for a lukewarm effort there. And yet, you never answered the question as to how you were able to lump women's health care choices and the marginalization of the LGBTQ population into a racial silo.

Aside from the fact that being anything but a white, heterosexual male in this country has become much more difficult to navigate lately?

Name me a single demographic in this country who has it better than a white, heterosexual male.

Not women- they don't even have a choice as to their own health care. Not any people of color- that's fairly obvious. Not the LGBTQ community- they're becoming more marginalized by the day. And the list goes on....

Pathetic waste of star dust.

My heart goes out to these families dealing with the death of a young person. 

It's not just in football, there seems to be a lot of younger people dropping dead these days. I've known too many people who have died from drug overdoses or suicides in the last year. A prominent Austin musician unexpectedly died a couple months ago. No cause given, my guess is drug overdose. 

Fentanyl is a big cause. It's EVERYWHERE.

Called it. Very very sad. Fentanyl is EVERYWHERE.

Man FUG Fentanyl. A kid I was friends with in High School and his girlfriend died because of it. It was one of those gut punches. I never approved of the path he went down , but the manner in which it happened was terrible. The dealer he got it from switched the real stuff out with the fentanyl so they could sell the real stuff again.

I mean, I never really got drugs. If I really wanted to get high, alcohol was always enough for me. I mean, maybe exploring and finding yourself is a draw for a teen or a 20-year-old, but I'd think that by 25 that you'd pretty much have some things figured out. I figure that drugs are a means of escape to a certain degree, but why would you need to escape if you're living out your dream. I know that I really can't identify because I've never had a problem with addiction--at least that's what my wife says (she didn't know me in school), but I really don't get why a person with so much to live for messes around with a drug that has proven to be deadly. I guess that I'll never get it.

We can go from walking on the Earth to flying to the moon in 200 years. We can harness atoms and peer deep into the universe to discover where it all came from.

And yet we are still stupid enough to kill ourselves again and again in pursuit of temporary pleasures.

    • Cooter, Kurb, others have passed on to glory….  Praise be.
    • Oh good for them! Hope this is the start of a long happy time in their lives here.
    • There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
