Y'all are gonna love this story. One of my wife's friends has been staying with us off-and-on over the past 3-4 months as she extricates herself from a bad marriage. (Her husband is a decent enough former aggy Corps guy albeit a little on the strange side but he's got permanent brain damage from alcohol abuse that only became apparent just before their wedding. He's since fallen off the wagon in a big way, has taken two trips to rehab in the last 13 months, neither successful, as well as a drunken wreck in the neighborhood where he miraculously avoided a DWI. He's recently lost his sweet job with Morgan Stanley and is completely off the rails. I doubt he sees his 50th birthday. I think he's 47 or 48 now. He's got brain encephalopathy, etc.)
At any rate, he wants to cook dinner for our friend last night. He's had a string of good sober days in a row and planned to go to a sober living situation tomorrow. Our friend suspects he's been drinking by his texts but goes over there anyway. Immediately after arriving, she knows he's drunk, does a 180 and leaves. He gets pissed and starts blowing up her phone with calls and texts. At one point, he says he's going to Uber to a pawn shop to buy a gun and shoot himself in the head. Friend calls Dallas PD to do a wellness check after he sends a picture of some countertop with a Ruger pistol case on it. (Turns out he was at Academy.) Cops go by and he's not there.
FF to late in the evening and he calls me while I was showering for bed and follows up with four texts. Says he can't get ahold of her and asks me if I can just drop her by for a few mins so they can discuss something involving insurance. It's midnight, mind you. Not a fucking chance I'm doing that and I tell her. She again calls DPD, who goes by again. They wind up kicking in the back door and determine that he's fired at least one round inside the house and then jammed the gun by loading the clip/magazine backward.
They take the gun and our friend's husband for a 72-hour psych hold at Parkland. However, they say he's free to retrieve the gun when he gets out of there and is 'normal' again.
Long story short -- inebriated/troubled guy drives to Academy and purchases a handgun, which he brings home and discharges in his home all within a few hours. No telling what he's capable of in his agitated state, especially now that he seems to be realizing there's really zero chance our friend decides to go back to being his wife.
i did not, in fact, love either of these stories.
i think of other posters literally bragging about getting hard for their guns...
my god we are a sick fucking country.

academia, higher ed, and critical thinking in general are reliant on nuance. there is little if any room for nuance in today's political environment. smart people should know this and act accordingly.

The usual amount of Texags butthurt and inaccuracies, but also a surprising number of realists. Goddamn do they hate being little brother. They should move that entire campus over to Qatar, where they could goose step around campus confident in their big brother status. It would be a win for everyone.*
*except the people of Qatar
i've read this twice but i'm having trouble reconciling UT 'liberal junkhole' and what he imagines the Texas political landscape is with...reality 😐
they are really so dumb.

Didn't Uvalde turn around and vote for Abbott and the GOP at landslide levels? I don't even know what to say about that
it's not really shocking, fits right in with our resident murder dildo fetishists - 'dead kids are totally worth it, guys!'

i mean, they already have.
