Martina Navratilova to L Boebert: "This 65 yr old lesbian has never heard of lesbian dance theory"

Lauren Boebert: “Joe Biden is robbing hard working Americans to pay for Karen’s daughter’s degree in lesbian dance theory.”

Wow- to think she had to write this down. And this 65 year old lesbian has never heard of lesbian dance theory, but maybe it’s a thing😱😱😱
Lauren- you are grasping at straws darling. And I am really glad you are straight😱😱😱

Dude is awesome, super funny. I love that song too. Pretty sure he played it that night, and this looks like it's from right around that time, his age is pretty similar. He's always looked amazingly young for his age.

He fronted a band called The Modern Lovers in the early 70's, featuring Jerry Harrison of (later) Talking Heads fame.

They put out one album (The Modern Lovers), it's pretty highly critically regarded. Music nerds definitely know of this album, it's kinda legendary.

The first song on it, Roadrunner, recorded in like 1972, is considered by some to be the first punk rock song.

"Angry Biden demonizes Republican voters during unhinged speech in Maryland".

Wow, so much to unpack here. Angry? Nawh, truthful. Demonize? You betcha! Republican voters? Nope, MAGA Republicans, a slice of all R's. Unhiinged? Nope, saw that speech and he was great, on target, and calm.

Yeah, Fox is still hitting all time lows for sure.

Mine is French Medieval History, a cooking class, and some math class. And I forgot to go to any of the classes all semester, so I'm running around trying to find the professors so I can drop them before the exams. And I'm naked. And lost.

College.

Register for a class at the beginning of the semester.

Totally forgot that I registered for it, and never went to class.

Finally remember a week before finals.

Go to the professor to beg him to find a way for me to make up the class work in a week.

The professor is ALWAYS Fred MacMurray from My Three Sons.

He reams me out for not going to class and tells me to fuck off.

I always have this dream when I'm stressed.

Sun Aug 28, 2022, 01:03 PM
Aug 2022

When I was growing up, the shorthand way of referring to "useless" liberal-artsy degrees was to mock it as a degree in underwater basketweaving. (I don't know - maybe that was just in my family? ) But Boebert purposely dogwhistles her dismissal to associate higher education not only with the arts but also with LGBTQ identities, since they're the boogeymen du jour for Republicans. Sad, and predictable.


P.S. I didn't know how to non-cis the word "boogeyman."

never learned to 2-step until I was in my late 20s and some lesbian friends taught me. They also demonstrated flammability of non-dairy powdered coffee creamer, something else I was inexplicably unaware of. This all happened the same drunken night at Greune Hall in Gruene, TX in the mid 1990s.

Good times
