  1. Me too. Genuinely and truly. I thought it was a fake satire account.
  2. True. And a perfect encapsulation of this state’s priorities that are fucked up to the point of being pure evil.
  3. Excellent summary of how and why it matters…and how we’re totally fucked.
  4. Understand that when accusing a Republican of association with coke-dealing Latina prostitutes, the only damning part of that is “Latina.” Oh, and from what I understand, it wasn’t the prostitute part of their resume that attracted this particular patron’s attention.
  5. Duh. Thats because the target is not “illegals.” It is “dirty Hispanics.” All of us. The admin is beginning its campaign of extermination (that’s what you do with “vermin,” that’s why they repeatedly use that term) against all Hispanics in the US. We are going to have to shoot our way out of this one. Y’all know that, right? Oh, and don’t worry about the lost farm labor. They will be replaced by the massive population of now-imprisoned Hispanics, who will be forced to pick produce for convict wages (see that out-clause in the 13th Amendment). That’s the openly stated plan. We are literally going to Make Slavery Great Again.
  6. Yeah….you’re just now getting that memo?
  7. I love that he’s afraid of something that hasn’t ever happened and never will happen here (people being thrown in a gulag for owning a bible) instead of…people being thrown in a gulag because they are a disfavored ethnicity (law enforcement is openly admitting that “being Hispanic” is their sole basis for stopping and arresting people for immigration violations). These fucksticks LOVE gulags and concentration camps. They are literally selling merch for them.

    Only good wishes for BV and his recovery…but it’s not like his absence is going to cost us many goals. I’m curious to see more from Taylor, he’s looked good in limited time, and we desperately need a spark up there.
  9. Yeah…love the “recent discoveries” angle. Him fucking an aide was a centerpiece of his impeachment and related lawsuit, from YEARS ago. It’s all about political expediency. But, you know, the party of Christian family values. There is no less Christian, less pro-family group on earth than the GQP, yet here we are.
  10. There’s no emergency like a “we need to do everything we can to overly skew this state’s Republican delegation” emergency. Fuck them kids.
  11. Nope. To redistricting. See, this wouldn’t have happened if we’d eliminated all democratic Congress people from Texas.
  12. Man, quotes the whole sequence, but this is the answer. Start asking questions now. If you don’t know the answer, “we’re looking into it” is a fine answer. But you start NOW. Competent failure analysis is the #1 way to avoid future failures. There isn’t even a close second. Failure analysis, in detail, asking hard questions, is non-negotiable. But let’s be honest, this is what Texas Fight is lobbying for: avoid full accountability, because his “team” is the only one in the crosshairs (because they’re the team that’s been in charge of literally everything in Texas for over a generation). Avoiding responsibility is a religious rite for them, and they won’t be denied that holy privilege. Thankfully, we still have SOME actual press that says “fuck your feelings” and will dog and get some truth: Texas Tribune, etc. Texas Fight doesn’t want that. He’ll rage against it for as long and hard as he can. But this one is too big to duck. But don’t worry, even when we find that the failures are because of total political and cultural rot, nothing will change. The party in charge will GAIN votes, and we’ll get more of the same, for at least another generation.
  13. So….there are some non-updated stories about attacks on CBP facilities in the past few days in McAllen and Alvarado. Like, armed assaults on them. There are the initial stories, then….nothing. No names, no examination of the circumstances, nada. WTF?
  14. Because….and this is importantly….the dead Texans are what tells us the policies are working.
  15. All the intercessional prayer bullshit is just that: bullshit. I prayed for my kid to survive, and he did. You prayed for your kid to survive, and she was swept away to her death. I guess I’m a better pray-er than you. Or God loves me more than you. Or god works in mysterious ways. Or any number of utter fucking cop outs. If god decided to “call all these kids home,” fuck your god. I choose anyone who fights against such a “god,” so “team Satan” for me. If god says “Brisket’s prayer was better, so his kid lives, but you didn’t have enough prayer warriors on your side, so your kid dies,” fuck that god all the way to hell. The “god” created by modern Christianity is a genuinely evil construct, and the world’s greatest enabler of human evil.
  16. Thankfully, we won’t have to worry about such scum infecting our great country any more. CLOSE THE BORDER!!! We are seeing a formerly functioning society self-immolate. Life-saving equipment, there for the common good, turned down - rejected with authority - because “Biden and all government is evil.” We will commit literal suicide before choosing ANYTHING that might be of interest and help to society as a whole, because that’s EVIL COMMUNISTSOCIALISM. I’m well past the tearing my hair out stage. This is mass insanity.
  17. The most vocal…and also completely in charge of the Texas and US government. That part’s really important.
  18. That is such a cop out and such shitty theology. If all that matters is the great beyond - and that’s EXACTLY the structure that theology builds - then it excuses all manner of evil here, and absolves you of all responsibility to build “the kingdom here on earth.” When someone suffers and dies, a response of “it’s for the best, they’re in a better place” enables more suffering. I hate that image Derka posted: it excuses all manner of evil. I hate the “nothing matters, because what really matters is our heavenly reward” because it allows you to check out on your duty to give yourself in service of your fellow man.
  19. Mo-Ranch is hosting the TXSAR crew. They have functioning places to sleep on site, which are in short supply. I’m glad they are able to help.
  20. Seriously, anything that challenges their chosen narrative, no matter how factual, needs to be removed from their view because they are the biggest snowflakes the planet has ever seen.
  21. Also, I’m getting pretty goddamn sick and tired of my heart breaking for my fellow Texans, and the uniform reaction from leadership being “it could have been worse”…as they coast to re-election. If the leadership of our state and the population that elects them can’t seem to muster a single fuck about the well-being of the humans who live here…why do I keep wasting time caring? I can’t help myself, but knowing that every tear I shed is fucking wasted compounds the loss and rage.
  22. I pray. I pray by acting. Because Christianity isn’t a faith, belief, or label. It’s a fucking WAY. It’s not something you say, it’s something you DO. The most meaningful prayer isn’t done with your hands folded. It’s done with your hands in motion, feeding, helping, holding, DOING. What we have in American Christianity? It’s 99% performative bullshit done to absolve the powerful of any responsibility or obligation to actually use their hands to HELP others. Prayer is doing “for the least of these.” In America, prayer is saying meaningless words while working to hurt the least of these. In other words, the opposite of “the way.” I hate American prayer.
  23. Man….you’ve learned nothing. Our leaders will blame Biden and Obama, probably saying that they HAD to divert resources that could have been used for flooding to chase dirty illegals. So really, it’s the fault of dirty brown people. You know that’s correct. The one thing they will NEVER do is take any responsibility.
  24. Presbyterian Disaster Assistance is on the ground, coordinating with local congregations: https://pcusa.org/disaster-assistance/active-responses/national-disaster/texas-hill-country-flooding Maybe…but…it may also have been a smart move keeping local resources local, when the forecast indicated we may need them around here (and indeed we did - multiple rescues and people lost locally). I’d wait to hear more about this story to figure out what really happened.
  25. Oh, and from a friend at one of the local churches, all 27 of the missing Mystic girls are confirmed dead.
