  1. Wait, all you idiots are driving all the way up to Georgetown to fuck South Austin's mom?
  2. Dude Texas Democrats suck, they don't have a bench, they don't know how to build a bench, they don't even know how to ask people if they'd like to be on the bench, such as it is. Why would you think they would have some sort of a plan for putting the best possible options on the ticket at each of the roles in their sphere of influence? Yeah it ought to be just playing his commercials in the background with fact checks on voiceover with markup on the screen. Cornyn is straight up saying he'll do exactly the opposite of what he's done so far and what he'll actually do. This makes them good ads because it's what people want, but it makes them terrible ads because they are fucking lies. This should be the focus. Don't understand why they aren't going down this path. I am still enthusiastically voting for MJ though.
  3. Come to my hood in south central Austin where that is a glorious reality. I printed out my ballot today so I could go through and figure out what races I needed to study up on. To read more about the more local/non-partisan races I will turn to a variety of resources. One of those is the Austin Chronicle's endorsements. I don't always follow their endorsements, but they do a fair job of at least explaining a thought process for their picks, something the Stonewall Democrats of Austin fails at. In any case, I thought their write up about this endorsement period was pretty spot on.
  4. It's just like everything else. If Republicans say they are for x, you can bet that their policies actually are against x. X can be whatever you want it to be.
  5. What in the fuck am I looking at?
  6. Oh look Ttom is back! He even still has shitty takes. Let’s hope he sticks around to explain himself.
  7. He’s sending me 3 emails a day desperately asking for more. Hopefully there’s a group working as hard on changing minds in his campaign as they are fundraising. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Also, there's a whole lot of people that already voted. My boss is in NC and he'd already sent his ballot back before this news even broke.
  9. Some of those who work forces, are the same that burn crosses. Why is that song still current 30 years later? Motherfucker.
  10. well it's Ben Shapiro, when has he ever been reality based? I can't think of a time.
  11. And to that point, HIV+ people have gone to jail for spreading the virus. Could this not also be a crime for people to knowingly spread COVID?
  12. It was claimed to be an intro to astronomy and yes taught in that big hall in Welch. I took it in the fall of '90. I no longer remember anything about it except that astronomers at UT were way more into science and math than they were into looking at pretty pictures of celestial bodies. I was way more interested in looking at the pretty pictures than I was the science or math. Especially since I'd just graduated from a high school that didn't teach evolution because it was against the religion of the biology teacher, who went to the same Baptist church I did. I was not prepared to take any science classes when I walked onto campus, but especially not astronomy.
  13. Yup, I remember showing up to my first (and only) astronomy course as a wee freshman. Being from the sticks, I guess I thought it would be like sitting in a planetarium for 3 hours a week. So day 1 I'm sitting in Welch Hall excited about looking at stars and then we're neck deep in math. I have a whole new level of respect for astronomists, and I know that's something I do not have the brain power to handle.
  14. Tell me more.
  15. That debate was epic and I loved the subtle “Republicans can’t be trusted to deal with a pandemic like adults so I’m gonna bring my own partition” move. He wasn’t just using his words to drag Senator Ladybugs tonight. Proud to have donated to that guy.
  16. That’s awesome. I hope he whipped his ass through that plexiglass.
  17. When he goes into quarantine and is still negative 14 days later.
  18. Him dying of this would be justice, I just hope if it happens it happens after the election. I want him to know he lost.
  19. Dude, Twitter is going to ban Trump as soon as he's not president. He's going to have to find another platform.
  20. If he’s not in the hospital a week from now he never had it.
  21. Oh yes. What's really great fun for me is how much time I spend explaining the craziness that is our state run election codes to my immigrant husband who grew up in a country that had very well run elections and encouraged people to vote. Of course, half the people voting were getting paid off to pick a particular candidate, but the elections were well run and they did not suppress the vote there. On the other hand, if I'm a Republican I'm probably working to suppress the vote too. I know my ideas are too reprehensible to get me elected in a fair fight, so I'm going to rig the fight. It's either that or come up with less reprehensible ideas. But these are reprehensible people, they aren't going to consider that option. No, it's better to rig the election instead.
  22. 8 hour drive from Austin to New Orleans, an hour of that is just crossing Houston from west to east. That's not very big at all, maybe they really only need a drop box that's only available 4 hours a day. That should be able to handle the volume. Jesus Christ.
  23. Maybe jacob will show his asshole on Onlyfans to help pay the legal fees.
  24. Trump's getting banned from twitter within 2 weeks of not being President. In fact, if 2 weeks is the yardstick I'd take the under.
