  1. Anyone that pushes back gets replaced.
  2. Here’s what I’m actually thinking because I lived it: Anything that allows districts to cut Special Education more and more and get Special Education kids out of the regular classroom - they will do it. Fort Bend ISD’s track record with Special Education is trash. You want it left to the community, yet I know the community only gives lip service to caring about all kids. They hate when special needs kids disrupt the school (at least in FBISD). So, no, leaving everything to the community level is not reasonable. Also - leaving everything to the state (especially in Texas) is not reasonable. State funding for Special Education is being cut. Hell - vouchers are going to gut public education. I get your sentiment. I partially agree with you - teachers should be able to make and adjust curriculum. Districts and the state should also have guidelines / guarantees for FAPE.
  3. Elon Musk, StarLink, missing ballots, Kamala is quiet, and Trump is quiet - HE STOLE THE ELECTION!! The conspiracies are running out there. Kamala lost - our elections are secure until they are proven 100% they aren’t.
  4. Same. They would be reading the Bible everyday and interpreting it wrong. Science would be gone. Houston has already gotten rid of libraries… I’m sure Fort Bend would like to. Etc etc
  5. Ask McConnel, Lindesy and co. Or Vance and Co. it’s part of their plans.
  6. I watch the local news. I mainly watch for the nightly weather. Outside of that, we watch streaming services - either trash reality TV or documentaries.
  7. For now, yes. His Social Security covers almost everything. If that goes, it falls to my sister and I. He’s 93 and did not expect to live this long, so he out lived his plan. Sis and are just outside Surly Rich, so we can handle it as long as he has Social Security. That goes away and some changes will have to happen (he moves in with one of us).
  8. Elon Musk owns Twitter. That is mainstream media online. His market share dwarfs everything else.
  9. My father is already dependent on my sister and I. He voted for the democrat platform and Kamala due to needing social security / VA Benefits/ Medicare. Life long republican and he finally saw the writing on the wall. He told me last week that is now truely is going to be dependent on us.
  10. I hope they get exactly what they voted for.
  11. Have the two wars been ended or does he need another 24hrs to get that done? Is there a grace period?
  12. I thought that was stupid. Made no sense. No one likes Cheney clan.
  13. Who doesn’t use coupons? Free money.
  14. This is us as well. Our taxes aren’t changing. As far as that guy goes- what did he order? Steaks? Oh no, steak doubled. Our grocery bill has stayed the same $225 - $275 for years. The food we have bought might change some, but the line item in our budget is the same. People voted to punch themselves in the face and for women to be further pushed into second class citizens because they can’t shop.
  15. She was already the president for roughly an hour and a half. That ship has sailed.
  16. Manchin wasn’t independent at that point?
  17. Now that I agree with.
  18. Look you fucking twit - I didn’t think Hispanics were going to vote for her. The racism runs deep between black and Hispanic. The avg American thinks groceries cost too much when they are $20 more than they were before inflation sky rocketed. Vibes don’t equal reality.
  19. Average people driving BMW’s and lifted trucks complaining about the cost of bacon are out of touch. Thats the burbs all over Houston.
  20. I live in the same neighborhood, so, yeah. Only difference is I’ll help other bleeding hearts where I can and I still don’t want kids dying in schools so I can play with my guns. The country voted for hate. I’m matching energy. I’m not one of those go high when they low folks. I hope Trump voters get everything they voted for.
  21. Take care of you and yours and beyond that - set your boundaries as you see fit.
  22. Not sure if this should go here or we should start a broken promises thread … First failure of Trump’s president elect - he’s failed to stop the Ukraine war. He said he would stop it in the first 24hrs. It is still going.
  23. For those folks on Reddit- r/LeopardsAteMyFace is providing an interesting look at the find out part of FAFO.
  24. I posted it, let it hang around a few hours and then de-activated. Been off Twitter since moron bought it. Still on Insta and TikTok.
  25. Posted this today with a caption “This is the GOP. You voted for this. Congrats. This is what you support.” It helped remove some people from my circle.
