Maren Morris

Have you ever heard of her?

I mean, she probably has only heard of me because of, like, every tweet or, like, just thing of mine that goes viral is always immediately sent to, like, these far-right conservative pundity websites that just, like, regurgitate the same thing from, like, a bigger news source.

And it just, like, trickles down.

But, I mean... You've never heard of her, though.

I mean... I haven't.

I don't really...

Yeah, I don't know if I could give it a string.

Yeah, I just – I think, like, so much has changed in the last 10 years.

But I think I was very – I don't know if the word is even radicalized because I was, like, 11.

But I just remember, like, you know, post 9-11 and then post, like, the Dixie Chicks or the chicks getting canceled for being right.

I just was, like – and I'm from Texas, so –

Like 20 years later, it's the Chicks and Beyonce on stage at the CMA Awards.

And it's my first CMA Awards.

And I had just won.

I had just performed my song, My Church, with like the Preservation Hall Jazz Band and the McCrary Sisters.

It was just like incredible music that night.

And I'm freaking the fuck out that like Beyonce is in the same room as me.

And the Chicks are back.

I feel like this is such a gift, but then there are like people around me, people are having fun, but then there are people around me just like arms crossed.

Like what are they doing here?
