    I'm sure his grades and test scores are more than adequate... for Texas A&M.

    My worst day on earth is better than her best day in Hell.

    I can meet with a book club and feel pressured to give anyone any money. I can disagree with the other members about the book we've read.

    So the rapist's family could bring suit?

    I used to chalk up his idiocy to youth-driven stupidity. But he's been on these sites for damn near 8 years... I think it's just stupidity-driven stupidity.

    Step 1 - Ask yourself "What would a vile asshole do?". Step 2 - Do whatever that is. Step 3 - Call it conservative policy Step 4 - Talk about how vile the liberals are.

    But there are no racist laws on the books, so systemic racism isn't a thing any more.

    Here's the thing... teachers don't just get to decide what they teach. Curriculum is decided by the state. Districts have say in scope and sequence. Depending on the school, teachers have say in the how, but the what is taught is decided at the state level. You'd be surprised how many people don't know this, but I'm sure Pompeo knows it. This is just him spouting bullshit to throw red meat to the morons. It would be maddening if it wasn't so sad. And yes, it is playing a part in why teachers are leaving the profession.

    Republican voter: Democrats are so stupid.

    Why would they watch us vote? Much easier to throw the votes out afterwards.

    He thinks Beto is worse than Ted Cruz. At least Greg Abbott tried to give the appearance of decency once upon a time.

    That goddamned ANTIFA is at it again.

    Counterpoint: But Beto!!!

    Wait, what did I miss?

    Their husbands pay the mortgage. Teachers only need to earn enough to pay for happy hours and over-priced purses.

    It's like you read my mind, but put it much more eloquently than what was in my head.

    This is a problem I've had since April 2020. There has never been a transparent metric for what we will use to reevaluate mandates. There was never a number proposed to say we lift mandates when we hit X. At least I don't remember a number being communicated. At this point it looks like people in charge are saying things seem better, so we can move on. Does that mean that our current numbers (whatever numbers they're using) are the limit? If things take a turn are we headed back to more mandates? I just wish that if we were lifting (or imposing) mandates we had the data presented why it was the appropriate decision. I don't think things will get worse, I do think everything is heading in the preferred direction, but I also believe that we could have the worst wave yet hit us and people would still be whining about masks.

    I took it as the only thing worse than a titty-baby is a titty-baby that acts vindicated for their titty-baby behavior. The pandemic has been made worse because some Americans reveled in refusing to do the bare minimum. I don't think anybody should feel like a winner after the past two years, but there's a whole lot of "told you so" coming from the titty-baby crowd.

    Yeah, the lecturing about COVID being over from the "it was never really a problem" crowd is particularly rich.

    Aren't you feeling owned? Just tell him you feel owned... it'll mean so much to him.

    So let's say you have the opportunity to ask Ken Paxton a question. What question do you ask him? A relative's boss has given my relative the chance to go to some event of his. I doubt the relative will say anything too provocative (the boss has tickets because he's a donor, and I don't see my relative wanting to cause a problem), but they did ask me for my opinion. So far I have... "How do you sleep at night?" (But I realized the vile SOB probably sleeps better than anybody I know) "How are you going to beat Ted Cruz for biggest chode in Texas?" "What's it like constantly wasting taxpayer money on loser cases that only win you political points with the shittiest Texans?" "How did it feel standing with those wonderful Patriots as they fought against tyranny on January 6, 2021? You must feel so much pride from being in DC on that beautiful day! Speaking to the crowd, inspiring them moments before they stormed The Capitol to stop the steal?" Other ideas?

    Sid Miller with a brief moment of clarity? Note I know thre stimulation is just going it to fuck with us. https://www.texastribune.org/2022/04/12/sid-miller-greg-abbott-border-inspections/

    I am trying to figure out the point that everyone is trying to make. Yang seems like a decent enough guy. John Legend seems like a decent enough guy. I'm needing some context for Yang's initial tweet so I can understand Legend's apparent clapback. Twitter is a shit medium for context.

    I already knew he placed party over everything else, and I still allow it to sadden and frustrate me. Burn in Hell, Mitch McConnell.
