    so what's the status on @Sharon's daughter?? as someone who had a young family member involuntarily (and absolutely incorrectly) 'held' for mental health reasons a few years ago...it's infuriating! luckily in our instance, the pre-admission medical check doctor (at an unaffiliated hospital) realized it was some bullshit and pulled rank (or whatever) and ordered her release...but still, it was terrifying it got to that point...i can't imagine if she was actually locked up and we couldn't get to her!

    plus he's the biggest fucking asshole on this site by a LOT. even posters that generally support his same 'team' think he's a hateful hypocritical dickhead. he's the Ted Cruz of surly.

    ^that's a good gage. in the absence of some sudden illness/injury (been thru that a couple of times, that's by far the worst)... for our aging doggos, assuming there's no real pain, we basically went with two factors - incontinence and ceasing to enjoy food. dogs are pretty simple, those two things i feel like make up a good portion of them just 'living life'. and i think of humans, myself included... if i get to the point that i can't stop peeing on myself and can't enjoy a good burger, fuck it, im done. our Catahoula had the biggest, loudest personality of any of our dogs. her issue was sudden (something in her spinal cord, or maybe a stroke) and we were not even remotely prepared, she was only 8! 💔 that is definitely worse. loved that girl.

    i mean with the plans for UT is there a legitimate need for a 'differently voiced' alternative? UT is becoming that voice. i guess having no cost (for now) is a winner. also this seems very similar to the Sanderfer/Acton university mba program. i think they actually lost their accreditation and ended up outside the US. they should hook up with these guys now lol 🙄

    one of the unanticipated but much appreciated benefits of moving to Denver is that while we run into Longhorns almost weekly around the city and get frequent friendly callouts and 🤘 gestures (stores, bike riding, restaurants, etc.) i have seen maybe a total of 5 aggy in our 2 1/2 years here.

    all that damn reading, writing and social studies! almost all the GenZ kids in my life went thru AISD (Austin, McCallum and Anderson primarily). thank god they are all done now...but over the years the specific topic of political lectures, 'indoctrination', etc has come up several times...and every single one of those kids were like 'wut?' those schools are all WAY more concerned with standardized test scores than they are any kind of librul indoctrination. buncha fake news bullshit to create a boogeyman to scare the morons into getting onboard with christian indoctrination. and it worked. congratulations, Texas.

    mchookem replied to RPM's topic in Movies and TV

    so much FNL reminiscence! the obvious (stadium shots, casting, town) but even the credits music sounds like Explosions in the Sky (it's not). anyway... packed full of Sheridan-esque stereotypes and clichés but also packed with Billy Bob and Jon Hamm so, worth it!

    i literally have almost no recollection of ever eating out as a child in Houston. i think we went to Pizza Inn for buffet on occasion, but other than that i cannot picture any memory of eating at a restaurant with my family. and we sure as shit never had fast food. weird.

    our family is tiny and my dad is completely outnumbered by my niece, my sister, my mate, and myself. he loves nothing more than his family, plus he's not actually a hateful, rage-fueled asshole like the morons that showed up here the last two weeks. so he has been treading very lightly. if he showed his ass like we've seen here he knows his final years would be very sad and lonely. i don't expect politics to even come up...if it does it will be bc my niece is borderline panicking and barely holding it together and just can't help herself. the passion of youth and all that.

    so @immamac, somebody had to ask...when Icono or immortal or whoever inevitably report the cloak room cabal to the department of internet content monitoring, are you still going to cooperate fully with the thought police? 🤔

    that right there is a cult.
