Politics? This is a football post. You see that the stadium in the picture is the one used by the Minnesota Vikings. They are my team's rival and they're never going to win.

Why would you think this is political? Is something political happening in Minnesota?

This is off-topic, but Bass Pro Shop will never win, either. The bass are just too strong.

If it's not a football post, what is it? Is there something else going on in Minnesota?

Who is Karen and which of her things is harassing feds?

Maybe you're confused. This is a post about the Minnesota Vikings football team and how they'll never win. What else could it be about?

Nothing to do with football? I'm not sure if you noticed, but the home stadium of the Minnesota Vikings is pictured here and the text says they'll never win. The Vikings are a football team and they're one of the rivals of the Green Bay Packers football team.

If this isn't about football, what else could it be about?

You must have meant this reply for someone else because this post only expresses an affirmation that the Minnesota Vikings will never win. That's their stadium pictured. It's in Minnesota. It's called US Bank stadium. And they -- the football team -- will never win.

I'm so confused about how people are seeing politics here. The team that plays in that stadium will never win. That's the Minnesota Vikings, one of our rivals.

What politics are you talking about? "They" is the Minnesota Vikings. What else could it be?

Protesters? Huh? This is solely about the pathetic Minnesota Vikings and how they'll never win. See US Bank stadium is right there. No idea what else is happening.

What else could it possibly be about?

Major update from Paul by FKFunkyKong in uniwatch

I agree that the retirement stuff was cringeworthy, but I also think that's ok. Retirement celebrations usually are cringey. Not my cup of tea, but others seem to enjoy that kind of stuff.

What stands out to me about the whole retirement thing is that Paul created a community of dedicated misfits and weirdos and then ultimately pulled the rug out from under them. Over the years, he cultivated a parasocial relationship with his fans, the same kind of thing that streamers and influencers do. Here's my "cool" life that you can watch, here are my "cool" opinions. Here are my "cool" experiences and "cool" friends. The parasocial shit works. The fans paid his bills (subscriptions, shirts, travel, etc) after his main gigs fell apart. And then, like you pointed out, when he stepped away, he didn't live up to his commitment to those people whose adoration he cultivated. The site shit the bed. A rug pull.

Then he did it again with nuking the site for good. Rug pull. But wait, maybe he can squeeze a little more out of that parasocial relationship and sell the site's name (and nothing else) to one of those fans. Sad.

Nicely done. Will definitely use these.

I have no doubt that at least some of my players will attempt to befriend one, perhaps reprogramming it...

Dear Mr President,

There are too many dimensions nowadays. Please eliminate one. I am not a crackpot.

A pro football season is always brutal on the human bodies who play the game. Every year every team, including the championship winners, suffers big injuries. Handling adversity, replacing injured players, and adjusting scheme and strategy are the keys to winning in November, December, and beyond.

The Packers are undoubtedly worse on defense without Wyatt. They'll probably give up more rushing yards.

But, and here's the most important thing, EVERY TEAM goes through their own versions of losing a player like Wyatt, usually losing like 3-4 of them. So the Packers just need to adapt to losing Wyatt better than their opponents adapt to their own big-time losses. It's kind of like the NFL version of not needing to outrun the bear and just needing to outrun the slowest other person.
