I Would Choose the Bear too

I am deep in feminist rhetoric on my social feeds and right now? Everyone's fired up about Harrison what's his name of The Chiefs and his commencement speech at a conservative Catholic college.   I'm not actually even slightly concerned about him spouting conservative ideals at a conservative college.  That's what they do. Institutions like that want to be an echo chamber of certain beliefs and they want to abhor modernity as evil.  I guess I'm more amused that people are realizing all of this is an open secret. That you are outraged at all just lets me know you didn't know it was happening and blindly believed all colleges function in a similar way of like frat parties and flagrant debauchery.  I'll call it now that he will 100% complain about the liberal woke agenda cancelling him because of his religion. When in fact he is not cancelled because short of losing his job and being exhiled my man is going to become some weird figurehead of right wing nut jobs

Have you been inundated with Matt Rife?  I don't want to sound like a hater. I think humor is relative and subjective and he is funny and certainly has proven he is successful at it.

But he's literally already fit so...how much more fit does he perceive gay men to be? Does he go to the gym with like, Mr. World contenders?  In the world I live in he'd be considered very fit.  I'm not crying from the obscurity and absurd premise that gay men are in super shape. I tend to like somethin

Medium Fidelity

Do you remember that movie "High Fidelity" with John Cussack? I used to love that one. I really liked "Serendipity" more but it was a period of John Cussack hits.  He spoke to the every man.  A pale, kind of awkward but totally normal looking guy. I rewatched "High Fidelity" recently and man, I forgot what was tool the protagonist Rob is. I actually believe it holds up even though he annoys me.  I think it's a real enlightening watch for young men. Kind of like "500 days of Summer."  You get more as you rewatch. I  have to remove my feminist takes from the equation. It's hard because I want to be mad but if you see it for what it is, a movie made in a fully male perspective about a male experience then it's pretty good. I don't want to date him and I want Laura to run for the hills but I don't have to agree with them. It's a man's journey to get to the conclusion that he is the common denominator in his problem with wo
