    I don't know where to put this, but I just moved from one of Texas' many armpits, Decatur, to North Austin, only to find out my house Rep is Republican Michael McCaul. The district stretches from north Austin all the way to what looks like@Huckleberry hood in NW Houston. What. The. Fuck? That's absurd.

    This makes me want to rage-text my parents...

    Texas is kind of the dividing line between states with massive amounts of public lands out west and those states that are primarily privately owned from Texas to the east. I don't know the numbers, but I would doubt that any state west of Texas has less public land acreage than Texas total, not by percentage, despite our massive size. As a Texan who loves the outdoors, it's pretty fucking depressing. Especially as a large portion of that public land is pine forest in the east of the state, which, while important, is not the greatest place to visit, particularly given the surrounding towns.

    I tried not to talk to my fellow Wise county residents any more than necessary during my 16-month sentence to that wasteland, but what summed up the community best was a church sign posted in October that read "The rapture is coming. Get right or get left".

    Anahuac is amazing. In addition to the giant flocks of snow geese, there are at least a dozen duck species, many raptors (in my early birding days i saw white-tailed kite, peregrine falcon and probably 10+ northern harriers in a few hours), dozens of waders and plenty of smaller perching birds like vermillion flycatcher. Not to mention otters and gators. I would recommend it to anybody in the Houston or East Texas area, in the winter especially. It's also both walkable and drivable.

    I got accepted to UT within a month or 2 of the VY national championship, was there during the Colt years and moved from Austin the summer of 2010. Just accepted a job in Austin and am moving back at the end of the year. I really just wanted to say "you're welcome", and I'm sorry for the last decade.

    Pets in the holiday spirit. Not pictured, the hole in Mango's lip from attempting to steal a bone from the old man earlier in the morning.

    Just passed a several dozen car Trump caravan heading southbound on I-35 from Fort Worth. What fucking losers.

    Anybody in the DFW area want a 37ish gallon tank + stand for cheap? I'm moving into another rental for at least another year and just can't keep breaking the thing down constantly.

    I can't wait to waste my time on surly outside of the cloak room for a change.

    He should be banned as soon as Biden is sworn in for all the shit he's said the last 4 years that would have gotten anyone else kicked off the platform.

    It was really fun waking up multiple times wondering what the hell was going on in the Midwest. I feel better than I did last night when I went to bed at 11, but much worse than the start of the day yesterday. So like many others have mentioned, basically the range of emotions one experiences watching the Longhorns shit the bed against an underdog, until 1 or 2 heroes step up to make a game of things.

    I have spent the last 2 1/2 years in Saginaw and now Decatur, so this hits close to home. Fortunately, this dark chapter of my life will end in 2 more months, hopefully ushered in by a new president.
