Negative loser karma from a franchise that has twice the championships (Sans the cheating scandal)?

Voter Suppression
Executive orders by governors almost always spell out prior steps that were taken on a particular issue in previous orders through whereas clauses. I don't think one has anything to do with the other. Extending early in person voting due to Covid makes complete sense. Reducing drop off locations for absentee ballots does nothing but create huge lines and cause an unnecessary public health risk (and suppress votes after the president shit the bed at the debate just a few days ago).

does anybody have access to federal criminal court records?
No, he'll be going to Federal Pound Me in the Ass Prison.

They must have received some truly awful post-debate internal numbers to pull a fucking stunt like this.

Bye bye Luby's
Yeah you’re not wrong about all that, but unless corrected by our in house Luby’s insider, those green beans sure seemed canned and not braised for 4 hours. NTTAWWT.

Tesla
New S won’t be any time soon, notwithstanding the Plaid, which is more a gimmicky battery test. The Y is way more advanced than current S. The new heat pump alone is a major improvement.

Breakfast Tacos in Houston
I recall Taqueria El Primo having a truck by Wendy’s and another by Fiesta Liquor. They are generally really good.

Texas BBQ
Pastrami at Roegel’s was pretty pretty good today.

Tesla
Not that much. You use it almost exclusively for road trips and even then it's generally $6-12 a pop. Most of your charging is done at home.

I have a Model Y. I own Tesla stock. IMO V2G is not happening for a very long time.

Report: 14 billion dollar deal for Bullet train from Houston to Dallas is done
Mixmaster/ high five in Dallas = any random interchange in Houston without the hand jobs and bragging and carrying on. A Dallas Uber driver was bragging to me about the high five and I was like what are you blathering about?

2020 Hurricane Season w/ special guest Covid-19
That’s a bit north of the typical Cape Verde launching point for hurricanes. Which means we’re probably doomed.

Markets still falling like whoa
Elon talked about this at battery day today. They are about to bring online a pilot in house battery recycling factory. Before they were relying on third party recyclers. They said that the price of obtaining the metals from recycled batteries versus from the mine is cheaper by an order of magnitude of 10x to 100x depending on the metal.

Harris County District Judge Indicted for 7 Counts of Wire Fraud
Yes Hughes usually throws the book at all convicted defendants without much mercy, but this litany of mitigating factors is hard to ignore. Word on the street is that she’s also ratted out some other lawyers/case runners for a gov’t cooperation downward departure.

Raleigh and the Triangle
Dude, comparing Poole’s to Threadgill’s is like comparing Franklin to Dickey’s. Probably one of my top 5-10 meals ever was at Poole’s. I’ve been a few times for work, and after asking people for recs the number one place, by far, that people mentioned was going to Merritt’s in Chapel Hill for a BLT. Admittedly I was fairly skeptical about seeking about a place for a BLT. How good can a BLT be? Answer: go to Merritt’s for a BLT. I think they make their own bread, Mayo, and maybe even the bacon. Whatever they do, it slams and goes hard.

Yeah no. Those don’t look alike at all.
