Flattie, I am not going to be an asshole in hopes that you hear me. I have said this here before but I guess it needs repeating. I am the first generation in my family to live their entire life with equal rights by law. My daughter is 16. We haven't even gotten to our 3rd generation yet. My mom joined the police dept a few years out of high school. Then she went back to school and got her nursing degree. Then she literally spent the rest of her life not taking care of herself so that I could get out. Mom died at 64. Not everyone is willing to dive on the grenade to further future generations but she did that and here I am. My mom never owned a home and I own a home in one of the richest suburbs in Houston, before that Woodland Hills CA, before that a golf course cul-de-sac. Now I am not rich, but my daughter has never known struggle. Most blacks are somewhere between my mom and me. Now you mentioned slavery which is a mistake a lot of conservative whites always make when having a little civil discourse about the black struggle. After slavery you had a huge backlash about blacks being free as soon as you know who got in office. Then came decades of taking away any progress blacks made. Debt Peonage. Jim Crowe. Racial Covenants. Redlining. Whites were violent against blacks on the regular. Then came the 70's and being physically violent against blacks wasn't kosher. So whites started attacking blacks through law making like stop and frisk. The US prison population was about 300,00 in 1970 and almost 2 million 3 decades later. Reagan instituted the 100-1 law where 5 grams of crack got you the same sentence as 500 grams of powder. Crackheads with 3 little rocks in their pocket were going away for years instead of getting help under the guise of "distribution". Again, any progress the black community made was being wiped out with swaths of people being put away for a ridiculous amount of years for having an addiction. Then came the 94 crime bill, the 3 strikes and your out bill, and gang injunction. Under gang injunctions if you were caught on the street after curfew. Jail. If you were thought to be a gang member and you were talking to another suspected gang member. Jail. If you were believed to be wearing what law enforcement saw as gang colors, or had suspicious tattoos. Jail. So you see buddy, they have never left us alone. It's 2025 and The President of the United States of America is attacking Universities for teaching about African Americans and punishing anyone with a Diversity program. But yeah......slavery. PS. As soon as white people started smoking weed regularly they decriminalized it. They also started trying to get people help when the opioid epidemic hit White America. Had that been us they would've increased the sentences.44 points

He’s not a “good dude” for Texas. Outside of him showing up with embarrassing offers to land transfers in various sports, the guy has been behind legislature meddling on two fronts. One, he’s actually tried to build a coalition that would force Texas to play in-state schools in non-cons across all sports, with a rotation format. Fuck him in every orifice for that alone. Two, he’s been involved with trying to get Tech a share of the PUF or whatever it is called regarding the land UT owns and already shares, via legislature bullying years ago, with ATM. So fuck that guy and his shitty university.42 points

The guy with the wrist tape and hand on hip (right side) is my Dad. That was a picture of them waiting on the results of the coin flip vs OU in ‘63. OU actually entered the weekend #1 vs Texas #2. That was the last time both teams entered that weekend in October: #1 vs #2. Hook’em!!!41 points

Huge shout out to @BillyGoatHill for transferring his tickets for today's game to my wife. I was already taking my 4.5-year-old son, but my wife also got to take our 2.5-year-old son. It was both of their first games in person (however, we do watch most of them on TV). They got to experience one hell of an offensive showing, including the ultra exciting three-run walk-off HR, saw Jonah Williams continue to ball out, ate a ton of ballpark food they normally don't get to eat, ran the bases after the game was over, and even got to see Surly cult hero DDA in the flesh! I am an ever-increasingly sentimental person since becoming a father. I grew up going to the Disch often with my dad. The memories and pictures from today will last many lifetimes in my family. I cannot thank you enough, good sir.38 points

Which foreign war would you like us to end? The one in Afghanistan? Wait, someone already did that. Your boy is going to start a war, not end one. Cutting costs? They're gonna raise the debt ceiling after they're done laying off federal employees and replacing them with loyalists, you dipshit. Killing woke BS? You elected a full-blown fascist because you were pissed off that some swimmer who was born with a dick beat some other swimmer who was born without a dick. What state did that even happen in? That's right, you don't know. But you know you won't stand for it, because Tucker and Jesse and White Baby Jesus told you not to. Just stop having thoughts at all. You're a fucking idiot. You and the rest of your monumentally stupid ilk have killed this country while jerking off to Lee Greenwood records and your F-16 posters. Dumb redneck motherfuckers.37 points

"When a kid puts on the University of Texas uniform, we tell him that he's just naturally expected to believe in himself. You hear guys who went to another school in our conference—A&M, Baylor or somewhere—talk for 20 minutes on why they didn't want to go to Texas. But you'll never hear a Longhorn bother to explain why he didn't go to another school." -- DKR Still holds true today.36 points

So my wife and I had our long-awaited sit-down with my parents this weekend. It went... not bad? My mother actually apologized for her vote. My dad admitted he should have at least left president blank if nothing else, and has finally realized Dan Patrick and Ken Paxton are clowns who he has vowed not to support. There was some defensiveness from my dad about immigration that remains pretty nonsensical, but they agreed with things like deportation being out of control, January 6th and pardons being a really bad thing (still don't see how they overlooked this in November), healtchare and education gutting being scary, foreign policy being absurd. It doesn't absolve them of their votes, but I have hope that they have been nursing the kool-aid slow enough that they may be salvagable. Somehow we didnt even really touch on the economy, which would usually be a place they'd want to direct the conversation, so I'm guessing they're none too thrilled about that. How much of this was them capitulating so they can see their grandkids more? Perhaps a little. But they didn't roll over entirely or immediately, and my mother is not able to mask or manipulate her emotions, so I think there was real sincerity with much of what they said.36 points

Re. My daughter’s experiences. I have learned the SS number mention referenced a file specific to an individual researcher, which is known as an ORCID file. This file contains all of an individual’s published research, all who conduct research have such a file, and the SS number differentiates between two researchers who share the same name. And, yes, the fact that my daughter was employed in a program Republicans have labeled DEI has been added to my daughter’s research file. UT legal came to the conclusion that employing my daughter in another job leaves them vulnerable to the charge that “DEI hires” were just shuffled around. M daughter makes clear that she was told this notation in her file will sabotage any interview at a research university. Too bad. So sad. Here is the offending language of the Post-Baccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP) program she was enrolled in: ”The Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences at UT Health San Antonio provides an individualized, diverse and multidisciplinary learning environment for students to develop the knowledge, skills and creativity necessary to succeed in the evolving biomedical disciplines.” Here is a link to UT Health’s PREP program: https://uthscsa.edu/biomedical-sciences/programs/prep36 points

There's going to be a time, years from now, where everyone is going to pretend that they were against this administration. We're not going to forget.35 points
