  1. Anyone heard from Beard hater @Bitterwhiteguy lately? I made him dinner

  2. Back into double digit admits here in one central Austin hospital. Unsure how many would be ICU-level, but it's more than two for sure. And it's not like the ones who are on the floor are breathing without oxygen, ya know? I imagine those that are critical weren't vaccinated, but I also don't know that for sure. I don't have any information on age ranges. It was a busy Friday night and I didn't get around to visit my sisters in the MICU. If you haven't been vaccinated for any other reason than you are immuno-compromised or a pre-teen, I am begging you: please get vaccinated as soon as possible. Austin was spared the worst when we didn't have a proven method to prevent and minimize the virus, and what we dealt with was still really fucking shitty. To add to that, nurse/staff morale is lower now than probably at any point prior during the pandemic. Yes, we've gotten protecting ourselves down pat. Yes, there is less of a supply PPE problem. Yes, we know what treatments help with COVID and when to utilize them. We know how to maximize your chances at coming off of the ventilator. I hope you know that that probably means you end up with a tracheostomy and without the ability to speak. But there's a really easy, safe, and effective way to almost certainly prevent this from happening: GET VACCINATED We are running out of energy to care. You have the ability to stop this from happening. Please do the right thing. We have continued to hemorrhage staff throughout the hospital, but especially from our ICUs. I don't use that word lightly You can make >$60/hr in Houston as a critical care nurse—hell, you can make $60/hr as a "floor" nurse in Houston—but you're stuck at around $34/hr in Austin, and that includes weekend, night shift, and critical care differential pay. People can't afford to live and progress in their lives here, so they will only stay so long. Why deal with all of that plus COVID? I can't speak for any other unit in my hospital, but I can say with certainty that the average number of years worked per nurse in my ICU is the lowest it's ever been in my more than five years here. Your odds of having an overworked, underexperienced nurse as your caregiver during a critical illness is the highest it's ever been. Just get the shot and deal with potentially feeling like shit for a day or so. It's def a lot better than breathing through a hole in your neck, if you make it that far.

  3. wtf is wrong with you? did not read what I wrote? I saw the vid earlier in the day posted by someone else but when I went to find it to post here, this was the only version I could find. I gave my disclaimer because I know you fucking DT denizens get your fee-fees hurt real easily. fucking deal with it, you goddamn snowflake

  4. Good lord y’all are some whiny bitches. Dude posted for the footage, said ignore the tag line, and y’all go full texags. Whining like this poisons threads far more pervasively and frequently than anyone actually trying to CR a thread. The victim complex is incredible.

  9. I don’t want to pick nits and I agree with your overall sentiment, but the “90% there” stuff coupled with “needed an X’s and O’s guy” doesn’t match up. It’s basketball, the plan and schematics matter, and that was Smart’s undoing. That’s not a “10%” thing. That’s damned near the whole fucking thing.

  10. I like to think Beard is doing this work just to further shiv Lubbock and Tech fans.

  11. The former CR posters who now post political shit in the DT on a daily basis complaining about the politicization of the DT and then threatening to leave the sight all together is always good for a laugh. That post by Ztejas might be the most pathetic thing I've ever seen here.

  12. My nomination is electronic registration for damn near everything. Seems like I'm always having to register on some new site or app to get info that I used to get without a hassle. You want to pay for your kid's school lunch? We don't take cash and don't do checks. Use the app. You want to pay me for babysitting? Just Venmo me. You want to buy a hammer? Give me your email address and I'll just enter you into our system... I was traveling recently and wanted to get tickets for a national park. If it were only that easy. First you create your account profile, then you link it to your card, then they verify you, then you verify your password, blah blah blah. I just wanted to go hiking.

  14. If there are shutdowns because the unvaccinated idiots are still spreading it around, they’ll be the first to bitch & whine.

  15. Also, it was pretty amazing footage, and embedding a tweet in a post is a hell of a lot easier than some random, non-YouTube video even if he was able to find the footage elsewhere. God damn some of you are the bitchiest bitches who ever bitched.

  16. Violent crime in the city has been on the rise. Between that, the rise in cost of living, flooding, and traffic/sprawl, I am fucking over this place. Houston sucks.

  20. It doesn’t matter what that stupid ass statute says, passing laws as to what can and cannot be taught by teachers in the classroom is stupid as shit and is full on Orwellian. Totally on brand for the Texas nazi Republican Party though. Ignore the grid and focus on complete bullshit.

  21. The new recruiting site has Worthy as a 5*. I asked Gerry who's the better prospect between Worth and Evan Stewart, and he said "Tough call. Worthy has a ton of upside"

  24. Yep. This type of crime is exclusive to Houston, the City of Eternal Hate and Brutal Beatings. Wasn't there a Shaggy poster that had issues with people parking in front of his house? Anyone seen him?

  25. So I am out in Vegas and just had dinner with a couple of big clients of mine and their wives. Somehow the topic came up about masks and Covid. One of the guys wife goes off on how wearing a mask is ridiculous and doesn’t do anything. She then goes on and on about the Delta variant and how it was really caused by all the people that got vaccinated and the vaccinated people somehow shed this new variant and it is hurting all the unvaccinated people. She kept going on that if nobody got vaccinated then we wouldn’t have these variants and the world would be a better place. Her husband is a big client of mine so I have to just sit there and smile but I can’t begin to tell you how badly I wanted to scream at her “You Fucking Idiot”.

  26. I am curious about the history of Horns down for many of you. It ticks me off. And it’s not cause I only see it on tv. I’m a celebrate with your teammates and be happy with your accomplishments guy rather than kick the loser while he’s down guy. Here are some examples. Dumb shit Sooner sitting in Texas section throwing it in peoples faces. Only because he knows he protected. Not by his Sooner brethren. Not by his ability to whip ass. But because if I whip his ass, I get in trouble. And rest assured I would have beaten the ever living shit out of this punk. This was pre-2005. So the win argument doesn’t hold water because we ruled the remainder of that decade. Yet it’s only worsened since that time. This past year Spencer Rattler and some other jackass run length of the field after the game to taunt Texas fans with the Horns down. Their teammates and fans were at the other end of the field, which is actually where the final play occurred. Last fall, at Texas Live before a game at Globe Life, some Sooner fan gets in my face with Horns down simply because I have a Texas sweatshirt on. Shithead WVU fan in Austin walking next to me Horns down yelling at another shitbird on the bus. Not teenagers. Not students. Supposedly full growed men. Coward Jermaine Gresham prancing the length of the end zone doing it on the Texas end of the field. Shawn Bell standing at midfield doing it towards the Texas bench. It’s taunting. It’s always been taunting. And Mack Brown brought it up because we got flagged for taunting Tech yet no other teams were ever flagged against us. So here’s the thing the opponents fans take the cue from their jackasses on the field that it’s ok to talk shit and get in your face with it. And they only do so because they know there are no repercussions. Now, if you jack wagons would support my right to pummel the hell out of these punks, then maybe I’ll tolerate it a little better.

  27. Can we get some leftover tamagotchi that we can rebrand trumpagotchis that require constant adulation in the form of micro donations of a nickel or a penny every 30 minutes

  28. This is why we can't have nice things. Pump the brakes on that shit, Negative Nancy. Naming the guy "Seven Win Steve" before he's even coached a game here? Nah, man. Why you want to perpetuate the idea that Texas fans are a bunch of entitled whiny bitches? The dude was trying to temper expectations a little bit. Very few people are going to be swayed by that. Changes nothing. No one is going to be satisfied with 8 wins. He knows that. His main point was that he's building for long-term, high-level success. He thinks that requires some foundational things first, before counting win totals. Sure, fine, whatever. Could work. We'll see. But no reason to go all Chicken Little before we've seen a single snap.
