  1. HUB was a major part/consideration of every procurement at every agency i worked at. i remember how important it was for us during the W governor years, his administration was very serious about following protocol and ensuring HUB vendors were represented and given fair consideration. lol at that memory now.

    gotdamn, Texas 💔😟

    Whoa. That looks…pretty damn decent. Explain. 

    as we heard the story...the owner visited Texas, flipped over the bbq, recruited a pitmaster from Texas, brought him to Paris for a few years and had him train some French folk how to do it right. 

    since i no longer live in central Texas and miss the bbq only slightly less than the texmex, we tried it with the expectation that it was probably modified for the French pallete (it didn't really seem like a tourist spot) but would still be good.

    it was NOT modified, it 100% tasted like Texas and was in fact better than pretty much any bbq we've tried in Colorado. the sides were also authentic and very tasty.

    i mean nobody is going to Paris to find central Texas bbq, but if you're there and decide you want some... it legitimately exists lol. but go early, they do sell out of stuff daily.

    Multiple times a month, someone will start a thread in Daily Texas about someone who was killed under nefarious, unusual, grotesque circumstances. Without fail, someone on Surly will make a distasteful remark or joke. No one--not you, not me--will care. We might even laugh.

    Making fun of the dead isn't really my jam, and murder certainly shouldn't be celebrated, but...

    Why does Charlie Kirk, of all fucking people, deserve more dignity in death than some other rando you've never met? Because he's famous? That's fucking dumb.

    The people who cry about SNAP benefits are the same ones who don't want kids to eat for free at school. On our ballot in CO this year, the funding of free meals for kids in schools is up for a vote. WHO THE FUCK VOTES AGAINST PREVENTING KIDS FROM GOING HUNGRY AND WHY ARE WE EVEN VOTING ON IT??

    Oh, right.... majority of Republicans. Fuck each and every one of you with this mentality.

    on a hopeful note i expect that to pass overwhelming
