It’s so telling that #TimWalz is “redefining” American masculinity. The guy’s a stereotypical macho man—veteran, hunter and football coach—but the fact that he’s also a nice dude makes it a paradigm shift.

He isn’t known for his baking or knitting skills. We’ve just come to associate masculinity with being a dick. #Election2024

apparently he makes a prize-winning hot dish https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/2024/08/22/tim-walz-hotdish-tater-tots-candidate/

Tim Walz’s hotdish recipe is heavy on the tots, light on the pretense

Vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz has won multiple hotdish contests. Despite appearances, his 2014 winner boasts a layer of sophistication.

@simon Have you ever _been_ to Minnesota? If you even tried to make a big deal out of yourself you'd be met with polite silence. Then they'd all drift away from you on the patio and go talk to Tim Walz.
