@Charles41640764 Then you've never really played.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

Just me and buddy Kev out there today. About as quiet as disc golf Twitter these days, but far more beautiful and life-giving.

@daddio_sam already there homie. you got the same handle?

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

DGN buffering problems looking like small now. DGPT > Netflix.

@Dohertybastard How can someone, aside from super rich folk (and you are clearly not one of them) not like Sanders?

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

Trump is like a TD who is unfathomably popular, yet does everything the wrong way until the club finally realizes it, adopts Bernie Sanders populism, sacks the fucker, and makes things work for the people.

@AproximatDemise Dude, this tweet is too long. I didn't even read it. Ridiculous. You are who I'm talking about.

@thecosmiccrisp @ShankedDG Disc golf is a brand that will never die. Place your bets appropriately, dear sir apple people. Respect.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

@ddrakedg It's a terrible, terrible victory dear sir.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

@DiscGolfProTour fyi, about half the planet died during the last Ice Age.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

Last one: Disc golf is changing, but public courses still operate as beacon towers directing the lonely, whimsical, drug-addicted, troublemaking, musical, broken, brilliant, weirdo hoards to safety. See you out there, my dears. Love y'all.

When you finally get your first ace, please remember that a disc company didn’t throw that shit. You did.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

Dear Vendis & Equip: Since acquiring multiple disc companies (HOD), how many:
1) public courses and tournaments have you funded?
2) workers have you fired?
3) benefits/salaries have you reduced?
4) debts have you piled onto House of Disc?
5) days until you sell?

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

And one more thing, before I leave, if you’re the best disc golfer in the world and you don’t have a nickname, you should see a therapist.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

@EJannies explain or shut up

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

Imagine if capitalism was the only social system that affected the growth of disc golf. Your favorite pastime would not exist. Paul would be coaching D2 baseball. Ricky would be selling dietary supplements at a mini mall. None of us would know the experience of our first ace.

@BryanG33 I saw that determination to "light our money on fire" first hand in PDGA committee work, and I was deeply saddened by it. So much effort, so much energy to exclude others.

[Parked @ADiscGolfBlog]

The greatest injustice of the PDGA/DGPT’s 2023 Ryan takedown was not the flawed, unethical survey that ignited the hate. It was that PDGA/DGPT blamed the women for it. If you ever feel like blaming women for white dudes’ bullshit takes on gender issues, just don’t. Just shut up.

When Republican disc golfers help build public disc golf courses or support their adult children financially, they embrace socialism. They choose socialism for the things they love and foist the logic of capitalism on everyone else.

I’m a lib and I love winning. I love our country. I love Paul McBeth who crushed mids for a decade. The difference between libs and cons is that libs favor leveling the playing field so that winning actually means something. That’s why we should vote Democrat.
