I cannot unsee this, I'm so sorry
Removed by modOn the right is the logo for Texas-based travel stop chain Buc-ee's.
The owner is a high profile TX GOP donor, just so it's clear. There was a report several years ago about them really fucking over managers by giving them a "signing bonus" that they had to stay on for several years to really "vest" into...a bonus that without which their actual pay was dogshit. So that fucked some people over.
But yeah their selection of goods is difficult to beat and they pay many of their workers well, which is more than you can say for most similar places.
Their coffee is also excellent. My biggest complaint is that they don’t have vegan or even vegetarian options at all for their food, but then again neither does any other gas station in Texas.
I have had the misfortune of traveling through Texas a few times in my life, and I always comment on the horror that is ... whatever the hell that demon is pretending to be.

She interviewed Andrew Yang which is what I was originally gonna post but then the knowledge in the OP was revealed to me.
I genuinely like Brie and I think her heart is in the right place.
But god damn. She's just getting sucked into the podcaster hustle. I'm just imagining ten years from now, a burned out Brie penning a tell-all book "Why I Seriously Regret Working for the Pete Buttigieg Campaign What The Fuck Was I Thinking" that nobody reads.
Eh, anyone who was pushing (or still is) Force the Vote is either a genuinely stupid person or a grifter. She makes $300k a year punching left. Ignore her and listen to people who know what they're talking about.
I was a huge fan a year ago, but it's pretty obvious she is who she is.
Eh, anyone who was pushing (or still is) Force the Vote is either a complete fucking idiot or a grifter.
She's pushing for an actual functional political party, rather than this Vote Blue No Matter Who bullshit. And so she's dabbling with third parties. And she's begging elected reps to act like a fucking caucus rather than a bunch of internet personalities. And she's vocalizing frustration with bullshit establishment tropes.
But because so much of the political sphere is astroturfed, she ends up doing shit with Yang and doing Chappelle-posting to exploit SEO. Once she's on that road, the show just becomes Joe Rogan tier.

A year ago she had Virgil to help both as a producer and as a second host to play Bad Cop to Brie's Good Cop and draw flak that drives ratings.
Losing him really crippled the show.
I think it'll be some fringe "leftist" rather than an establishment hack like :failure: but otherwise yes.
