Wait, I thought that Elon Musk had all the leverage and Twitter couldn't afford a long trial. Or something like that.

18,000 cattle dying like that should be a crime.

I'm all for legalizing marijuana but why tax it? It's not like Texans don't already pay enough in taxes.

We need to think about the real issue here, which is how many Americans are not killed each day by guns. Why focus on the negative?

There was a period of my life when I went to the Llano Public Library every morning to use the free Internet, and back then it certainly got a lot of use.

I had forgotten about those "Republic of Texas" guys. I seem to recall a guy I knew at UT who was into that during the mid 90's. He was an albino.

Why do you think he had any real choice?

I thought they were talking about sump pumps. I know it's been raining a lot in California.

Yeah but who the fuck are you?

I don't understand these last few pages and I don't care enough to put in any effort.

Okay you PLO experts. Last night I played a live PLO hand, 8-handed, $1/$2 and we had agreed to three orbits with $5 mandatory straddle. I have about $500 and I'm the effective stack. I was invited to this home game and I don't know anybody in the hand but they all seem to know what they're doing. I'm in the straddle with QQJT, suited Q of diamonds. Early position min-opens to $10, Button calls, BB calls, I call. Flop is A-K-6 rainbow with 6 of diamonds. check, check, check, Button bets $30, which I view as strength. I call hoping to turn the nuts against a strong hand. Turn is a 6 of spades, so now K of spades and 6 of spades are on the board. I do not like this card and I check. Button also checks. River is Q of spades giving me a decent boat, but losing to quads, AAA66 and KKK66. I can get called with smaller boats and maybe a backdoor flush. Is this a mandatory value bet and fold to a raise? If so, how much should I bet? I did not bet because I am a nit. I checked, he bet $50, I call, and he shows A-x of spades for the nut flush. He also had a K, so he bet two-pair on the flop. He made this easy for me by only betting $50. If he pots it am I ever folding QQQ66? I think he bet the river thinking I'm betting all my full houses. What do you think of his play?

This angers me. I grew up dirt fucking poor and without welfare I would have starved as a kid. It's simple economics -- food is cheap and the returns are high. I think these same motherfuckers would have wanted me to suffer from malnutrition. I'm 47 now and have paid god knows how much in taxes. It's been a pretty good ROI just from that standpoint.

Screw that, I voted against those motherfuckers.

Well, government regulations that he doesn't like.

I saw a sovereign citizen in a local property tax case once. The judge shut him up real quick.

Punished? What do you mean?

I had actually forgotten about that.

Holy shit Travis Tritt is still alive?

I'm a big, big fan of soft, easy games.

Happy Arraignment Day! I wonder if H-E-B will run out of popcorn.

What are Qanoners saying about Trump's indictment? Is the storm coming soon?

It will be easy to get rid of MAGAts in voir dire. One question: Do you think Barack Obama is a Muslim?

I'd like to settle down but they won't let me, A fugitive must be a rolling stone. Down every road there's always one more city, I'm on the run, the highway is my home.

DeSantis looks like a fool. This was simple. Did he really not have a plan for it?

It's almost been four hours. Should I call a doctor?
