it's good content, tara

seattle’s world cup hosting comittee (seperate from fifa itself) decided to designate seattle’s june 26 game the pride match bc it’s pride weekend in seattle. after this decision was already made, egypt and iran happened to draw this match. officials from these countries got super worked up about this because they are both very homophobic societies. no players or anyone on the field will be forced to acknowledge that this is a pride match, it’s just a thing that seattle is doing. iran and egypt officials are trying to get fifa to ban pride flags at the stadium but fortunately fifa has so far refused.

some misconceptions i’ve seen is that this was “pinkwashing” (which is crazy, countries that actually hate gay people that bad would never “pinkwash”) or an intentional troll aimed at the countries involved. neither of these are true bc like i said, the pride match was CHOSEN BEFOREHAND.

it’s just one topping on the SEATTLE DOG!

the cream cheese typically goes on the BUN and in my opinion should be used in moderation!

a seattle dog also has CARMELIZED ONIONS and (usually) JALAPEÑOS please don’t just throw cream cheese on your hot dog!

they are traditionally consumed while SHITFACED or EXPERIENCING SEATTLE SPORTS (derogatory)!

seattle has much more noble claims to culinary fame, such as introducing teriyaki to the mainland united states and creating the dutch baby pancake. i just thought seattle dogs would be funnier to mention.

We're both in it. We're obsessed with each other.

imagine feeling like you're interrupting something....... IN YOUR OWN HOME...........

there's so much to unpack here.

"It was a joke. Technically also true." -> Asking your pal of like 3 or 4 days to get on his hands and knees and then realizing after the words have left your mouth that it sounds quite suspect but you refuse to take it back. Also you have to refrain from thinking too hard about that exact setup so you clarify that it's a joke. Mostly.
