    Sounds like you gotta nice little Tuesday planned.  

    Last weekend, I saw one those mobile pedal bar deals heading down West 6th Street.  And a hipster on an e-scooter almost ran into it.  And I need to drive more safely, but I thought I was looking straight into the center of Austin at that moment.  

    You were looking into the abyss and it was looking back at you.

  2. “Unhoused” just sounds so much like the “unwashed” or something you read in the Bible. Why do we keep changing the terms of great many things? Does that help/hurt or bring more attention? It’s just weird to me. Not really a criticism but I don’t see how unhoused is a better way of saying homeless. Maybe it is just me. But yes the unhoused problem is rampant. But if you complain about it you are a pearl clutching jerk. You don’t care about them if you complain about the real shit happening on the streets etc…people living without much dignity. Calling it a different name doesn’t help to fix the issues being created around downtown. And we’ve discussed this on blast. I care about the unhoused and have multiple times shared programs and places that have had very good success. Does Austin want to be one of those places or would they rather use polite terms and do nothing?

  3. Within about 90 seconds, police officers responded that they had managed to stop vehicle traffic over the bridge in both directions. One said he was about to drive onto the bridge to alert a construction crew.

    very sad about the construction crew. I wasn’t aware of how many construction workers die in the job each year and was kind of shocked-same for road crew types. Just a staggering number.

    does the timeline hold that -

    a.) she initially was getting a hysterectomy due to symptoms, which is why the original easter timeline for recovery was given

    b.) but in the process of recovery it was discovered she had ovarian cancer and thus had to get an oophorectomy which she is recovering from and also

    c.) recovering chemo for now?

    I’d guess that is probably the case. We don’t know shit and they may never share all of that but it tracks. She is in her 40’s and has had three kids. Hysterectomies are common at that age. Plus she had really difficult pregnancies. Most women get them because you start experiencing problems and other things (i will likely have one in the next year at some point.) then they do the biopsy thing and you find out it’s a bigger deal after the surgery. Ovarian cancer is scary bc no symptoms. Sounds like it was caught early. It’s just all a private deal and get why she didn’t want to say what the surgery was for. Probably expected to come back in 4-6 weeks but then was told hey you have cancer so heal up so you can go thru chemo. That likely hit them like a ton of bricks. 

  5. Damn. Well most people were not that far off thinking it was a major health issue. The PR was bungled badly. Hope she recovers soon. What are the odds both she and Charles were diagnosed with cancer at the same time in the same hospital. Sounds logical to think she underwent a routine hysterectomy for issues and found out there was cancer. Cancer sucks. She looks very thin (not that she wasn’t already) probably why they had her in horizontal stripes. This will really cause people to rally around her and the monarchy. It really seemed even a few hours ago we were witnessing the downfall of it .

    so it hasn't been 90 days. 

    i mean, it's got to be rehab. or nervous breakdown. or something actually fairly normal that they could humanize instead of myster-ize. but whatever

    There are two separate camps. Will/Kate Kensington Palace (and that may be potentially splintered if she’s doing her own thing) and Buckingham Palace—Charles/Tampon lady. It appears that the Mother’s Day photoshopped to shit picture + statement, the TMZ picture of the woman in the car with Kate’s mom, the picture of the back of the woman’s head in the car with Will and the video of “Kate and Will” walking are all coming from Kensington. Buckingham Palace has not really weighed in at all. All the statements about her surgery, recovery, return date and so forth are coming from KP. It is weird watching the King/Tampon’s press aparatus remain oddly silent. It’s either will and Kate together running the shit show or it’s just Will running it if Kate has disappeared or is too ill to do so.

    has it been 90 days yet? how long since she disappeared? 

    So she was last photographed with her family attending church on Christmas Day. Big deal—not grainy far away shots it was an official public appearance.

    on 12/28/23 a Royal palace motorcade was seen going from where Will and Kate were staying to the same hospital she ultimately ended up in for her planned abdominal surgery. No one commented on this at the time, palace wise but it made the rounds on X with video. 
     

    Then in mid-January it was announced that she was having this planned surgery that took most Royal watchers and UK press by surprise as she and Will had many engagements planned and also a planned trip to Italy. Charles goes into same hospital at same time Kate is there for his prostate and wound up with cancer. Will is seen officially visiting the hospital one time. Then many Royal announcements that the surgery was a success and wasn’t cancer and she’d return after Easter.

    then someone decided bc of all the social media rumors to put out the photoshopped picture with a message from Kate. We see how that went. Then TMZ published a far away shot of a woman in a car driven by Kate’s mom and said it was Kate but it was super grainy. No one believed this either so KP puts out a picture of a woman facing g away from the camera saying it was her hitching a ride to an appointment with Will in the car while he was headed to a commonwealth day appearance. Only one shot of the back of a woman’s head. People went nuts again on social media so they did the shopping trip at Windsor farm video. This quieted no one. It looks zero like Kate. 
     

    Now the press is saying she is working from home that she ain’t no show pony and she won’t be rushed back to official duties. And also yes, she has either been seen in the sense that they want us to believe all the grainy far away staged looking pictures are Kate. No one really thinks she’s been seen officially since 12/25/23.

  8. No one will be watching bc March Madness but TMZ is devoting an hour long special on Fox tonite to KateGate. I will be recording it and may watch depending on how Texas plays tonite. But hoops before ho’s so I may just watch it after all the games air

  9. I like the addition of Kish. Her style is so pleasant. I’m not big on change so I miss Padma but I do like Kish a lot. I won’t like the show if Tom leaves however. Also, I love Gail but that overall looking onesie thing she had on at the beginning not good look. I love the new rules. I really like Michelle the BBQ pit master contestant. Excited about this season. It’s not going to be stale. 
     

    Am I the only one who likes the weird Matrix type music right before the Judges Table elimination? I just dig it. It’s my theme music under pressure while cooking stuff at home.

    You know, there is already a precedent set for the Prince to divorce his wife, marry his side piece and for her to become Queen, so…

    Yes. They do gravitate towards crusty looking dirty home wrecking tampons don’t they? Camilla was never as into Charles as he was into her. She wanted to marry the Parker Bowles guy. She did. She played the LONG grifter game. So all the new ho’s need to take note. You too can be Queen for a hot minute if you play your cards right.

  11. X is not having it either I guess. British press wants so badly for people to just take their spoonful of bullshit. Also, the medical records hack they are bringing back up happened a few months ago. Anything to tell the people, “Leave her alone!”

    Basically its just code for the press saying to us: “ we can’t produce her. We don’t know what’s going on and even with the fake photo and the kill  notification and the clone we need yall to stop questioning stuff. Because we, the press do not question them. Only Harry and Meghan’s stuff can we attack! We aren’t allowed to investigate! we can’t question it! So you can’t either damnit!”

    After all this if if turns out she just has Crohns disease and had a bowel resection or whatever I am going to be hugely disappointed.

    Same. Or a botched plastic surgery procedure. I want it to be she is fed up over the Wills and Rose pegging shit. They had a big row about it—hence the 12/28/23 motorcade. Then the announcement of a “planned abdominal surgery” that took all the Royal watchers and people in the know by surprise. Then she vanishes with the help of King Charles. I mean they announced a big trip in December to go to Italy in January. Something changed. Whether that was an emergency medical situation or it was a nervous breakdown and nasty fight. 
     

    The Royals without QE are a mess. But the fake robot clone Kate also made people who wanted to believe it’s her go, “well if she’s well enough to bounce around and carry a shopping bag and look so carefree…she’s well enough to go back to work.” Poorly done. She’s obviously refusing to cooperate and maybe she is unrecognizable and after all this fuckery definitely isn’t breaking cover until she looks like herself. It just really does appear she ain’t cooperating.

    Was looking for that scene in the Bewitched remake where Will Ferrell is bitching about being cast as Darrin. And how people barely realized they’d replaced the original Darrin. Best part of a messy movie mostly.
