Sorry, did you want to get immersed in our world? Well, guess what. FUCKING PRONOUNS!!! (preview)
TODAY: A Starfield streamer absolutely loses his mind over the presence of pronouns in the immersive role playing game. His compatriots conclude that this is the most powerful video of a man taking a stand since Rich Men North of Richmond ALSO: MORE GENDER. A Mexican gender reveal party leaves a pilot dead, and conservative readers settle on blaming millennials and teachers(?) We cap the episode off with some good news in the form of opinion polling showing that a sizeable majority of US adults don't think teachers are groomers or should spend classes fighting woke ideology.

I voted no today because : I am A MAN (preview)
It's a very special UPS Facebook group episode as we report on how the current Teamsters contract vote is driving certain people insane. We find the same neuroses around voter fraud and stolen elections the right has about the US electoral system, but ported over to a union contract vote, and I try to talk some sense into one of them. We also look at the bizarre ways right-wing Teamsters are channeling their reactionary politics into the good kind of class warfare. Last but not least, several UPSers are voting No, not because of wages or benefits, but because they have serious issues with the removal of the "very normal" and "factual" pronouns from the 2023 contract language. I will personally give up 4 dollars in raises if we can go back to his/her language NY (9/10) TICKETS: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/minion-death-cult-live-tickets-691958234707 PHILLY (9/12) TICKETS: https://www.axs.com/events/496996/well-there-s-your-problem-tickets Get two bonus episodes every week for only $5/month by signing up at http://patreon.com/miniondeathcult
