anyway fediverse y'all wanna hear my hottest take, or rather, the one most likely to get me punched square in the face in my town where i live?
animal death
peta is completely right in saying that Uga the bulldog never should have met the longhorn steer mascot of texas either.
the best thing to do is when the current Uga bulldog dies - on average, they've been living like 4-5 years. it'll be soon. - drop the practice of being the bulldawgs entirely.
instead the next Uga should be a bully-breed-mix pound pup, promptly fixed, socialized to work the crowds, and used as part of a campaign to promote UGA fans adopting from shelters.

(clears throat)
the university of georgia should do the decent thing and retire its mascot
modern bulldogs of that show variety are miserable creatures plagued by too many health problems and it is cruel to breed animals that way
more importantly, the UGA bulldog line is rife with such health problems that no proper breeder would breed it at all. these animals only exist out of twisted sentimentality and live short lives full of pain for the convenience of football fans.
