    Texas Primaries

    Aside from promising to be tougher on violent criminals, has Sylestine explained his position on non-violent offenses (e.g., minor drug possession, etc.)?

    Texas Primaries

    Let’s say a strategic-minded leftist is considering voting for Haley in the primary. Which other R candidates in TX / Travis County would be worth an anti-MAGA protest vote?
  3. Is it down for everyone?
  4. Warming up for Open Mic Poetry Night?
  5. Yeah wtf. Fascists are fascists. Their particular race or religion has zero to do with it.
  6. No, that was not my intent at all.
  7. “Gimme that, it’s MINE!” ~ Jesus Christ
  8. I don’t know exactly but, whatever the number is, they hit it in 1948.
  9. Engaging in double think and praising Big Brother.
  10. If he weren’t running for President, I might actually root for Trump. He’s conning a bunch of stupid greedy assholes who deserve to be fleeced.
  11. The amazing thing is that each of those endless permutations is the one and only True Religion.
  12. What an amazing finish. #YNWA
  13. Is that the one where Tim Conway walks around on his knees pretending to command an artillery unit?
  14. That guy should have responded: ”Our apologies, Aubrey. We mistakenly believed you were an undocumented immigrant. As a US citizen, you are only allowed one vote. To avoid an arrest for voter fraud, please mail any extra ballots you have to the Soros field office in Eagle Pass, Texas.”
  15. “This reasonable gun regulation would deny Americans the time-honored ignorance defense,” notes moron.
  16. Texas has done this in the most counterproductive (and most Texas) way possible. Delta 8 THC and Delta 9 THC are widely available and completely unregulated here. There is a proportional weight limit, but I don’t think there’s an absolute amount limit per serving. And you can buy that shit anywhere, including shady independent businesses whose employees are more likely to sell to minors compared to the regulated dispensaries that operate in legal states. So weed is nominally illegal here. But it’s functionally far more available, especially to children. Which is completely fucked up.

    High

    What is the psychoactive ingredient in those? The manufacturer claims they do not include any THC, psilocybin, or even CBD.
  18. That sounds just like the DT board.
  19. A utilitarian approach is more likely to convince the CCP than is “the creator said so” or “Mother Nature decrees.”
  20. “I have a natural right to life,” insists person doomed to die in accordance with natural law.
  21. I bet all those Chinese kids who got steamrolled to death in Tiananmen Square are relieved to hear they have the right of free speech.
  22. Right. I will never dispute that the state should be structure such that free speech is a protected right. But this hocus-pocus about deriving it from natural law or a divine creator is a distraction. And deferring to the whims of a make-believe deity or subjective notions about what nature decrees is dangerous, because those concepts are untethered to reality. It’s much safer to advocate for rights on the basis of the good outcomes they generate and the bad outcomes they avoid in the real world.
