The “our grandfathers would be ashamed of us” dudes seem to vastly overestimate the amount of time our grandfathers spent on looking for testosterone supplements and worrying about the melanin content of their balls.

NUH-UH, *YOU*!!!…
Tucker Carlson was upset that nearly everyone in the media, including several gay men, thought the trailer for his documentary "The End of Men" looked incredibly homoerotic.
Carlson was so upset but this he included it at the end of his incredibly homoerotic film.
OK then. pic.twitter.com/SjjtUaoAwP

Speaking of cooking your eggs …. In 1983, as a freshman in college, I went along on a night of drinking wherein we drank too much, waaaay too much. And so we could sleep in, we cracked raw eggs into our beers, so that we’d have already had our breakfast that night, and could sleep in the next day.
Yeah: it was 1983, and I guess the risk of salmonella was lower. But we also didn’t think about that at all. Amazing nobody got food poisoning, ended up in the hospital.

Soundtrack by Wagner and Richard Strauss.
The first music heard in that clip is from the finale of Das Rheingold and depicts the summoning of a thunderstorm, which is immediately followed (in the opera, not this video clip) by … wait for it … a 🌈 RAINBOW 🌈 BRIDGE.
I wonder if Tuckums knows that.

I hate everything about Tucker Carlson and American masculinity, but it’s true that eggs are our most misunderstood food. We vastly overestimate the risk of salmonella (especially from farmers market eggs) and dietary cholesterol, and we overcook all the flavor and nutrients out of them. Big Egg is useless in overturning these misconceptions since their crap is what carries the salmonella risk.
p.a.
With all their apparently different takes, you know Cucker, Musk, Peterson, tRump are the type of soft psyches who have never heard the word “no” where it was really meant. And they’re such obvious shitpiles that no one in their orbits cares about them enough to even try to derail shit like Cucker’s manimal movie.

On account of the bit about raw eggs, I’ve got “I Can Make You a Man” from Rocky Horror going though my head.

I preceded Tucker Carlson at the New England prep school he went to by 16 years. I left after one year with enough PTSD from the bullying, hazing, and brutality to last a lifetime and get at least one play (“Dark Twist”) out of it. That he turns out this butch-assuring macho kind of crap is not only not surprising, I’m wondering why it’s taken him so long.
piratedan
well, I think I’m gonna pass on the continuing adventures of Grima Wormtongue Jr and get prepped in expectations for J6 on Thursday.
With Liz Cheney doing the circuits on various networks, I am kind of hoping that since she can’t seem to get those on the sinking ship to come to their senses, that she intends to simply sink the fucker and start dropping names and throwing them to the masses… I kind of get the idea that’s why Sasse is abandoning the ship to leave the confines of SoDak to head off to Florida and take the admin gig. I suspect he knows that there’s something in the wind and is moving as an act of self preservation out of the expected blast zone.
I also fully expect that Ms. SCOTUS is expecting to find herself a much smarter person than a bunch of Democratic Congressional Mooks and will unexpectedly leave a few threads left to be pulled on as she unintentionally implicates her husband, some of his coworkers and a bunch of money people who would just as soon be left in the shadows.
we’re going to get threads being tied together from previous meetings and likely get some potential conclusions that will allow all kinds of interesting speculation to take place… like the coordination between the WH, the GOP members of Congress and these white nationalists militias and those who fund them.
People will get an essential reminder driving home the saving of Democracy theme less than a month prior to the elections and when this is done, we’ll likely see even more Trump shoes drop and who knows what else the DOJ may initiate.

My father, who actually busted his ass working hard all his life without bragging or showing off, would have called Tuckie (or Trump, or DeSantis, or any of those clowns) a “cafone”. Basically a preening loudmouth who’s not capable of or interested in working hard to do what’s necessary. Cafones

@206inKY: I agree with you there. They are a nearly perfect food, if you get nice quality ones – very easy-to-digest protein, some vitamins, and good fat, if the chickens are fed well. And all in a very convenient package that refrigerates for weeks (in the US) or can sit on a counter top for a week (in Europe). And one of the most versatile foods – they can be eaten raw as a supplement, used raw as an emulsifier, or cooked ten different ways, all good.
@David 🌈 ☘The Establishment☘🌈 Koch: Not to mention, he’s a 40+ year old man worth millions, yet he dresses like he’s in prep school, with that shitty blue blazer and khakis….unless he’s in “bro” costume with the plaid shirt and fresh-off-the-rack jeans.

@Keith P.: Can refrigerate for months. I know from experience and Egg Council agrees. They don’t go bad in the fridge, they just eventually dry up. Before that happens it means old eggs are easier to peel than fresh eggs.

Anything but raw eggs = cooking = kitchen = woman’s work = gay.
Probably. On some lizard brain level.
Tucker just loved him that slippery texture, though. Tastes like late night in the dorm.

Long ago in the distant past, in FLA, I put on a pair of cutoffs, only to begin shrieking and jumping up and down, having been bitten by some tiny insect on the head of my dick… undoubtedly worse than on one scrotum, as more sensitive by 65 yards or more. Turned bright red, but didn’t swell so much as for me to go to sick bay.

@The Pale Scot: lol, this is particularly funny to me this morning, as I just saw The Old Blind Dogs last night and any one of those slightly dweeby Scottish musicians could kick Tucker’s ass with both nuts tied behind their backs (editor’s note: Owwwww….!)

IMHO, Tucker is as gay as a three dollar bill.

My opinion- at zero cost:
The guy desperately clinging to traditional manly men ways grew into sexual maturity in the San Francisco Bay Area during the 80’s when SF was mecca for gay men. I believe he imprinted on the sexual continuum less close to cis het than he would have one believe- hence the hyper masculine public facing self. Sure, he may have skaddled off to Stockton a couple few weekends ago, but my shiny nickel wager is that it was the Folsom Street Fair that was his ultimate destination. Does he have a few copies of the Bay Area Reporter under his mattress or deep, deep in his closet? Inquiring minds…..
