  1. Can't respond on the merits of the accusation, so just going to deflect. It's like I'm exchanging posts with incredulity.
  2. Strong post. I was going to go with "Great though, lets hope he flips to a school we have to play down the road."
  3. Don't be so subtle. I'm not sure hayden is going to get it.
  4. I'll make my point clearer. Making up shit straight out of thin air with no evidence and then presenting it to the world as reality, where it can then be repeated, is what the Right does. Way to go.
  5. Where in the fuck are you pulling this completely fabricated bullshit from? Why don't you just come out next and tell everyone that he's brain damaged and his handlers are injecting him with drugs to do speeches. Just completely made up bullshit, straight out of Newsmax. Get the fuck out of here with this stupid unhinged garbage.
  6. Some of them will probably vote against Biden, becuase Palestine.
  7. And the young people still won't vote.
  8. If you ask all the big government, authoritarian loving republicans who want to legilslate a woman's body, they'd tell you that conervatism is still all about those. So I will assume you meant "curious what the people on this forum think." AKA voting democrats. In action I think the actual veer happened in 2021...right around inaugeration day.
  9. Like others, I feel good about Wisconsin becuase of the people in control of the state government and the new maps should galvanize voters, mostly D. But maybe I'm overly optimistic.
  10. I hope I'm wrong. But we'll see. Few people feel good about what's on the line this fall, and at the end of the day, if Trump were to win he's going to have to win states he lost in 2020. What states are the most likely?
  11. Over a million dead from Covid is a hell of a body count.
  12. I think there were a lot of GA voters who didn't bother in 2020 becuase they thought they were solidly red. Plus bad Senate candidates. I think they'll find some more voters in 2024 than they did in 2020, enought to eek it back red. Biden could lose GA and still win if he keeps AZ. Hell, Biden could lose NV and GA and still win. So for your prediction to happen, it means that other states flipped from Red to Blue. Which ones are you proposing?
  13. Nevada goes Red (I know, I know) GA goes Red.
  14. I wonder how often these women get caught at church, and then some pastor turns around and just blackmails the predator into doing whatever THEY want. I feel like the percentage has to be well above zero.
  15. Thats insanity. You may hate Abbott, but him getting re-elected didn’t immediately dismantle democracy.
  16. Yeah. If true there went any semblance of me being remotely willing to consider Hartzell as anything other than at fault.
  17. While a fair point, my guess would be Hartzell was told there would be DPS guys on campus and that was it. What the cops were told to do likely didn’t come from Hartzell in the chain of command.
  18. Clearly that wasn't a long term solution.
  19. Everyone says this, until it’s everything they’ve worked for in their lives at stake. It’s very easy to do the right thing from our recliners, much harder when it’s your life and career on the line. Again, this is how fascism works. For fucks sake, what did the milgram studies teach us? and I say this completely thinking I’d do the right thing too in that situation. And yet, here I sit in Houston, not leaving Texas, because my kid has a good thing going and because my career isn’t portable, or even replicable, anywhere else. Just hoping things hold together till the kiddo goes to college and we can get out. While risking his future and ours by staying. For everyone who has talked of leaving and hasn’t yet, why haven’t you? Doing the right thing is always easy, right? Everyone says that until they see what the next thing is…but on the upside, something even more obviously monstrous that follows will make it easier to cut ties and wash hands entirely.
  20. I've seen it (often sold out) at Central Market. And there's a small place off Washington called Henderson & Kane that has it. Also he, at least used to be, at a Farmer's Market saturday mornings in front of Cavatore's Italian restauarnt off Ella near 610 North. Has some more details on their instagram. https://www.instagram.com/chilesquiles/?hl=en
  21. Either way, that sounds fucking shitty. I'm not defending the guy's behavior by any stretch. I simply think if we was left to his own devices, things would have gone differently in almost all these situations. He didn't want the fucking Liberty Institute anywhere near UT. He didn't want to dismantle DEI. And I'm completely speculating, but I wouldn't be surprised if our BOR wasn't interested in retaining ANY DEI employees the way aTm didn't want some "liberal black woman" running their journalism department. The sad truth is the Dismal Tide is coming for all of us.
