  1. Dude married into money and has a beautiful family. He doesn’t have to be doing any of this. I respect his work ethic. He’s trying, which is more than many can say.
  2. Agreed. They shouldn't give the Dems a rubber stamp. Make them earn the support, in ways they haven't in the past.
  3. When I say I'm voting straight ticket Dem, what I mean is that I'm voting against any and all Republicans at every opportunity. So in this circumstance, I vote Libertarian, which I did for President last time out, much to my disgrace.
  4. My friend's dad, a lifelong Republican voter and semi-retired oil company exec, and also an atheist, called her to tell her he was at church and praying for ways short of him dying of Covid to make sure that Trump doesn't win. As I've said before, my completely apolitical wife and sister, talk nonstop about how disgusting Trump is. My sister has already voted straight ticket D for the first time in her life, my wife will tomorrow. I'm set to vote straight ticket Dem for the first time in my life. My kids all voted straight ticket Dem. It's anecdotes like this that have never happened in my lifetime that make me really fucking curious to see how things go Tuesday. Maybe it doesn't mean shit, but here's to hoping it does.
  5. Republicans are turning out early in Midland. Here’s an article about early voting out there. The numbers are a drop in the bucket compared to the state on the whole, but they’re going to easily surpass 2018 and 2016 numbers, and they won’t be voting for Biden or MJ - Cruz got 77% of the vote in 2018. Interesting to see if this is playing out statewide and nationwide. Suspect voters are fired up on both sides to turn out. https://www.mrt.com/news/article/Number-of-early-voters-possibly-could-hit-50-000-15674284.php?fbclid=IwAR3KCPX1bYeD8JUtbQfxwra70wcRA12EZK30BZl9XY_Tu8lPtTXblYJsm3o
  6. What a shallow stupid fucking idiot
  7. Hays City Store, but it's a looong drive for you.
  8. I’m bored by this discussion. BT is possibly correct but it just doesn’t matter this year because Trump and his clan are so much worse. Accordingly, I just don’t give a fuck about BT’s points right now. If they have legs, make them another day after the election dude.
  9. I haven't voted yet, will next week. I will be voting straight ticket Dem for the first time in my life and doing it with joy. I can't wait to get rid of the assholes in the party that I supported for so many years - man was I a fool. I will vote FOR both Austin propositions, because I think spending a few hundred extra bucks a year on infrastructure is a good investment even though I'm never impressed with the city's government. In the end it's worth it even if they won't spend it in the best way possible.
  10. Born in 67 and fit the same profile. Lifelong Republican now swinging way to the left. I can live with it.
  11. Yeah, I get it, but it only takes one crazy and there are a few more than that, even in Austin.
  12. Wondering if Rudy believes or has been told the girl is 15 in the movie when he starts to pull out his wang. That could make a significant difference in the perception game.
  13. I'm a shy Biden voter. I don't have a yard sign because some of these Trump voters are violent and it's not worth it to me.
  14. My suburban neighborhood in SW Austin has easily a dozen houses with Biden signs and one house with about a dozen Trump signs (these guys really go for the volume!).
  15. I just moved to Austin and got online to confirm that my change of address has gone through, but my registration says it's not valid until 10/26 so I'll be waiting until then to vote. Wasn't planning on going today anyway. I look forward to checking every single damn box for a Democrat after voting 90% Republican for the last 30+ years. Hard to envision what it would take from the Rs to get me back, as I really don't think that will ever be possible.
  16. That was exactly the combo that I took - self paced astronomy followed by ET. Weren't the toughest classes I ever took, but definitely not the blow off I was hoping for.
