no, i really see the motivation here. if we don't have to talk about politics, we don't have to worry about it. we can just completely avoid all that unpleasantness and strife. it's pretty much the same thing as football, right?

How about I Don't Like Politics, a sub-board where no political discussion is allowed

I am old and stupid

I'm sorry, Kate, but I can't parse that, because "old" obviously can't mean old and "stupid" certainly can't mean stupid. I'm stumped.

Let's see: tribalism, ancient grievances, regional chauvinism, extreme tendentiousness, fierce loyalties, public betrayals of those loyalties, greed, confirmation bias, silly hats, violence, injuries, uniforms, domestic abuse, mental illness, pointless death, purported displays of obligatory patriotism, principled questioning of obligatory patriotism, domestic draft beer, network television, commentators in bad suits, and nachos.

So far I think politics just needs more nachos, and THEN they'll be the same thing.

If Joe Biden was a millennial he'd definitely be one of those Americans with an Arsenal tattoo

ok, let's roll with that. how about I Love A Good Cry, a board where we all give each other virtual hugs and tell each other what amazing people we are?
