  1. How is Bowie HS affected by all this?
  2. Abbott, Morath and the Leg have made that very difficult. So the districts then turn to TREs and bonds, which then the GOP machinery goes into motion to fight. It's happening in several DFW-area districts right now for the upcoming election. Richardson ISD has never had a bond voted down in over half a century, but it may well happen this time.
  3. Bo French is the worst person to come out of TarCo/FW in a long time, and that is quite a distinction given the competition from Tim O’Hare and some other real winners in past years.
  4. I had the Wednesday special at the DT Dallas location about a month ago and it was the best meal I’ve had there in a long time.
  5. GoFundMe scraped public IRS data to create donation pages for over 1.4m U.S. nonprofits - including their logos and options for ongoing monthly donations - without their consent. They stood to make millions off of platform fees until a couple folks noticed it and raised a stink. https://abc7news.com/post/gofundme-created-14-million-donation-pages-nonprofits-bay-area-organizations-had-no-clue/18013410/ They've now reversed course on the suggested 15-17% "platform tip" default - but otherwise acting like it's all just normal. https://thenonprofittimes.com/npt_articles/breaking-gofundme-reversing-course-on-nonprofit-pages/
  6. Just coming here to say this. He's alive and well and seems to be doing fine - still married with kids, running a State Farm office, etc.
  7. At the Ark-aggy game tonight and it was as good a game atmosphere as I’ve experienced. Shame the Hogs have no defense, as the offense kept them in it the whole way.
  8. Man, he was soooo smooth. I was a P1 of the Questlove Supreme podcast (also RIP), and he talked so frequently on there over the years about his time with D'Angelo and how formative those experiences were (especially making 'Voodoo'). This has got to hit him hard.
  9. @dieworkwear is always a fun follow.
  10. Holy crap that call - and pass - and catch by McCallister!
  11. Just an aside, but hearing a couple Longhorn Band shorties from the TCU band in this game. Their new director came from the LHB, so that makes sense.
  12. Utter crap call against TCU, but then they recover a fumble after the punt and pick up right where they left off on offense.
  13. I am so, so, so utterly tired of this performative bullshit from our AG. And now that whole Turning Point media ecosystem is dogpiling TCU (and their obsession on X with this week's in-person Pride events honestly makes me worried for their safety a bit). https://www.keranews.org/texas-news/2025-10-02/texas-ag-paxton-to-investigate-tcu-over-turning-point-event-school-says-was-not-booked
  14. Another thing I'm learning as a UA parent is that there is a LOT of resentment from the rest of the state towards the growth and success of NW Arkansas. A prime example is all the butthurt in Little Rock and the eastern part of the state over the end of their half a century plus of playing some home games at War Memorial, which has a great gametime atmosphere but is a total dump, and costs the school millions in lost ticket revenue and logistics costs every time they play there instead of on campus.
