I resemble the potato. I did have holes in the knees of some of my jeans but those are from wear and tear like a dog scratching at me for more of my chicken.

I’m just glad that I am in the bubble so I don’t have to bother with that crap.

Woke is actually what is found all throughout the New Testament especially the Gospels . The Golden Rule and all that .
I don't recall anything in the Bible about men playing in women's sports.

That's what makes the "woke outrage" comment so funny, imo. The ones that slam "woke" so much are often the "holier then thou" types. They have no clue. But they've got opinions, and it's always "my way or the highway".

Maybe the ones who slam Woke are tired of being told that everything they say and do is offensive to some snowflake, an act of microaggression, or outright racism. When there is ZERO accuracy to that.

Nothing about golf carts either. Or global warming, or cooling, or 2nd amendment rights. Lots of stuff isn't in the Bible. Maybe there is areason for that. Wonder what it is?

Except after the ad came out there were dozens of TikTok, X, and Instagram posts (yes mostly from the aforementioned single cat ladies, but also some beta-male men) excoriating the ad as racist, Nazi, etc. So yeah, they were really outraged. They need to get a life.

Yes, she was.

I think she was in a show that I watched but I can't recall anything about her.
You're probably thinking of The White Lotus.



Quote:
This most likely will draw more attention to her and her acting career.
It sure as heck will.


Quote:
Here's hoping the political aspect of that attention doesn't wind up hurting her.
She's so popular (and good looking), she is uncancelable. Plus it seems like the whole cancel culture thing of the past 5 years is losing steam.

Probably was White Lotus though I need to go back to see her in character.

I was with you right up to the last sentence. Cancel culture is still here and gaining steam, it just looks different now and appeals to a different crowd. Pendulums.

Really? Can you give me a couple of examples of someone canceled the other way around?

Pendulums for sure, but I have seen nothing similar to what you describe.

Can't think of a way to answer that won't be uncomfortably close to the forum rules plus, off topic. Look for a PM later tonight or early tomorrow morning.

You have seen nothing? I'll bet you have, but just don't recognize it when it's something you support. For examples I'm afraid it would become almost instantly political. Start with a fill in the blank question such as "Gulf Of ......", and go from there. Not personal. Not political. Just Geographical.
