  1. Big news out of the Supreme Court this morning. Lindke v. Freed is out. A public official who prevents someone from commenting on the official’s social-media page engages in state action under §1983 only if the official both (1) possessed actual authority to speak on the State’s behalf on a particular matter, and (2) purported to exercise that authority when speaking in the relevant social-media posts https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/22-611_ap6c.pdf
  2. Or in a book. Can the government shut down a printing press because it's owned by a company that holds political views it finds objectionable?
  3. Is there not a first amendment argument to be made against this bill? Tik Tok is the forum where my Gen Z colleagues use for news and political discussion. I don't like the idea of shutting down a forum for free speech because it "might be a national security threat". Where do you draw the line? I remember Joe Jamail calling us terrorists because we talked about tearing down his statue if Mack Brown wasn't fired. Could we be next on the chopping block?
  4. Is that in PSI? Holy shit you're a pot hole away from a massive explosion
  5. What's up with the proliferation of businesses charging a fee for using a credit/debit card? I've seen anywhere from 1% all the way up to 4%. Feels like bullshit to me. Now I gotta go to an ATM and pay them a fee to withdraw money so I can avoid the fee at the business. Fuck this!
  6. "Okay fuck it, let's open this envelope"
  7. The same family that shut down OU's wishbone offense in 1970 also shutting down a murder plot shouldn't surprise anyone.
  8. I used to laugh at people when their team lost and they'd yell about how the game was "rigged". Not anymore. The way the leagues are embracing gambling really bothers me. When Tim Donaghy was caught rigging NBA games it was a big deal at the time but I think a modern day Tim Donaghy would destroy a sport. If the NFL had its own Tim Donaghy controversy would people stop watching professional football? I probably would.
  9. Why did Biden give a shout out to Lincoln Riley?
  10. Mitch Little pulled out the upset of Kronda Thimesch a little after midnight. He was one of Ken Paxton's impeachment attorneys
  11. This is what a Ken Paxton endorsement gets you in Kaufman County. Feuerstein thought he could bank on that while not submitting his campaign finance reports. Wrong!
  12. All 3 of Paxton's CCA candidates are winning bigly but Slaughter is trying to keep it close
  13. I still have no idea why Neave decided to primary him. It wasn't like her state house spot was flipping red so it was ride or die.
  14. Travis County DA is winning in a landslide
  15. Trump v Anderson is live. Colorado Supreme Court opinion reversed in unanimous decision. Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson write to concur in the judgment
  16. Just got my renewal notice from Germania. My auto and home rates are going up 45%! Fuck!
  17. Tesla has a near monopoly on service. Outside of tires and suspensions I don't know anyone locally that is willing to work on my Model 3. Hell it took me a few calls to shops just to find one willing to change my tires.
  18. I'm well into group 1 but will not be buying any stock in reddit. If anything I'll be shorting it. Reddit is at the mercy of Google. If Google decides to find a prettier girl to feature on search results, that stock is gonna crash quick. That scam ass site Quora found out the hard way (yes they're a scam, FUCK QUORA and their partner program).
  19. 8 day campaign reports were due yesterday. Joshua Feuerstein is still refusing to report his donors and expenditures. Of course he's the Paxton candidate in that district.
  20. Holy shit this monologue is killing me!
