  1. yeah, that's a fubar situation. sucks for all those involved, but that's not a problem that looks like it's going to solve itself with a new surge protector. somebody stole something.
  2. that's what abbott just wants - for all yall trans folks to just leave him alone and start asking for things like human treatment. you'll settle for less than mexican, and like it, by god! seriously, what's so hard about this? it does not affect anyone, except to free up people to live their own lives as fellow human beings. god forfuckingbid.
  3. another writers' strike victim. just kidding, it's probably just another set of victims from the friendly wilco sheriff's department.
  4. interesting. usually, i would think if something is weather related, the station would come out with a "hey, our equipment got fried, we're working on it." complete radio silence over the weekend is a bad sign, especially following a flagship event. generally, when radio doesn't tell you shit, they are out of money and/or fired someone(s).
  5. also might be worth recognizing that these folks are actually fleeing horrific conditions and are actually seeking asylum as refugees. I've asked before and I'll ask again. what happens if we let them in?
  6. remember when apd couldn't find the rock throwing lunatic even though he kept showing up to crime scenes? yeah, and posting on this website, and sattending city council meetings and being charged, in the system, with felony criminal activity? yeah, they aren't finding any one killing folks in or near town lake until someone sees someone dumping a victim off the south first bridge.
  7. these fucking rubes. so i quit drinking and use weed as an anti-anxiety/anti-depressant/party drug. my life now vs my life before weed is like two different dudes. i mean there's a lot of other shit going on that's contributing to the positive change, but weed is one of the biggest helps i could imagine. i'm smarter, i write better, i remember things better, etc. i'm kinder, have more patience, better overall mood, etc. the fuck is this shit still illegal? and why do i have to break the law to feel pretty normalish? it's fucking maddening.
  8. i know i'm weeks late to this exchange, but still, nancy was not wrong for the first half of her statement. as usual, she messes it up in the end, but what she should have done is start naming names of senile republicans who have missed many votes. show some fucking receipts if you are going on the balcony.
  9. post soul departing his body real greg abbott is creepy af
  10. yeah so it wasn't quick. he sold his soul a long time ago. the bill eventually comes due.
  11. he's a fucking nut, no huge surprise.
  12. good morning america
  13. yeah, he should resign now. i mean, this isn't just the appearance of impropriety. this is the fucking impropriety.
  14. i'm hoping. this idea that every generation is as disaffected and politically "whatever fuck you" as generation x needs to die already. you can court the youth and you can motivate them. the key is to, you know, involve them. that's what's ultimately going to be the republican downfall. party of old white rich men can't keep on forever if the youth give a shit.
  15. i mean, i know this in tennessee and the south, but nationally, we should know their names. it's fucking shameful.
  16. yeah, but the youth gotta vote. yelling in the chamber is all good trouble. but the ballot box is where you make the change. i still can't believe they ousted the two black dudes but kept the white woman. how are the racist dudes who voted this way not being publicly lambasted and shamed for their racism?
  17. my work requires not an insignificant amount of writing, not all of it super interesting. we just got an email cascaded that forbids us from using chatgpt as a tool for our work, because there is a fear of submitting any of our content to a third party, which makes plenty of sense to me. i have never used it, but i know for a fact that junior folks are using chatgpt for simpler articles. i'm not sure i care. we spend so much time and effort to get people to write in a "style" like the economist where we are pretty interchangeable when it comes to the writing bits and pieces. if chapgpt can take inputs and output that sanitary "style" required by publication...i'm not at all bothered by that because the time saved can be spent producing more content or data. people used to use slide rules to do all kinds of math we've since automated. is there some kind of fundamental something i'm missing that requires people to be able to write properly? once past the "show your work" bits in math class, we rely on automation to do our fancy calculatin. why is language different? it's interesting because language and plagiarism are such a hot button, and i don't know the answer. excel can tell me that 11 * 658 = 7238. why do i need to invest the time in calculating that? why should i waste time constructing a fact sentence? i don't know.
  18. who the fuck is john galt anyways
  19. yeah i was going to ask for clarification from creasy but i suspended them instead
  20. oh hey guys maybe we should do something about the guns oh wait nevermind
  21. east texas box face. anthropologists have wondered about the cause for decades. some say it's hillbilly whiskey. some say it's meth. we all know it's real.
  22. yall get lost in the weeds all you want. fix was in. no doubt in my mind.
  23. yeah. and then everyone trips over themselves making excuses for the refs because a team couldn't overcome the bias, either intentional fix or not. but that was a fix. fuck this shit.
  24. the commentators are really trying not to come out and say wtf. and you know they seen some fixes
