    Wife and I are going and sitting on the lawn for Nathaniel Rateliff with opening performance by Gregory Alan Isakov in Las Colinas tonight. Wife is more interested in Isakov, who I like as well. Picked up tickets for $22/per on Seatgeek where the fees and shit were nearly as much as the deeply-discounted ticket.

    I’m down front in the pit

    Purely anecdotal but I have early voted at the ymca at 12th and Lamar for the last five cycles and I have always just walked in and voted in fewer than 5 mins. I’ve been standing in line waiting for 45 mins so far and I’m still not to the front. Never been like this. 

    Same for me in collin county’s corner in Dallas. 100 people in front of me.

    we should all vow to do as little as possible to get our ballots thrown out when we vote. bring a picture id and your voter card, if you have it, wear nondescript and normal clothes (no political or campaign merch). bring a printed copy of the ballot with your selections, leave your phone in the car if you have to, be extra friendly to the poll workers, and don't talk to anyone coming or going. I still think it's bullshit that the non-harassment perimeter doesn't extend to the parking lot. I expect a lot of canvassers and ne'er-do-wells alike will be bugging people heading in and exit pollers will be trying to talk to people coming out.

    I normally enjoy speaking with the politicians at the polls. For whatever reason, they often choose my local library to stand around for canvassing. I spoke with a republican running in the Feb primary for at least an hour.

    I normally wear my cowboys hat when I go vote. I peel off the old sticker before going in and apply a new sticker after voting.

    The double entandre isn’t subtle.

  4. The odd thing about that meme is as an old, I’m on the left side of the meme telling my kid to be skeptical of stuff on the internet.

    He and his wife were visiting when the vance “they’re eating cats and dogs” thing broke. He and his wife were talking about it and looking at their phones. I overheard them talking about it and said it sounded like some bullshit story that republicans make up like jade helm or pizzagate. This apparently set him off cause he thought pizzagate = jeffrey epstein. Tried to gently explain that pizzagate is not the sane thing as jeffrey epstein without  upsetting my wife.

    Sometimes they go off on their own and catch the stupid.

    I’m pretty sure his wife knew I was right and was trying to steer him back on course.

    I mean, it's misspeak sure because it was Dec 2012 not 2022, but I thought it was a good overview of the legal action that's happened. It's strange how some folks latch on to a single thing as an excuse to stop listening

    That basic mistake discredits her. It’s a video. Review it and take 3 minutes to do a second take. They spent a lot of effort on editing and adding graphical enhancements. Get the content accurate.

    Call me strange if you will.

    Good overview of all the ratfucking by jones and the ensuing benchslapping

    This video lost me when the woman said sandy hook happened in Dec 2022. It’s like c’mon people.
