If this is indeed the "offending language," then whoever is making this call to flag SS #'s is an outright dumbass who needs to take a remedial English course. "Individualized and diverse" modify the "learning environment." Nothing to do with PEOPLE hired for diversity. Diverse in this statement simply means the nature of the learning environment is varied... similar to "multidisciplinary." J F C
Driving through so, so many dying shithole little towns in Texas recently, I noticed how many houses and other buildings are just literally in ruins, clearly haven't been occupied in decades, but the decrepit, crumbled remains just sit there sinking into the ground. Apparently no one in these places gives enough of a shit to just get the rotting, rat-attracting boards hauled off. No pride, no dignity. Except the false kind. And the people there wouldn't vote D even if the R's promised to ram those rotting boards straight up their ass. Far better than succumbing to the moral decay of those evil libs. That's my state of the state address
Maybe a rhetorical question, but is there anything you can lose your dr's license for anymore in Texas? I've had some familiarity with the Board of Medical Examiners and the protection of their own, so color me skeptical. But if anyone deserves to be brought before the board for medical misconduct, isn't it this quack?
He's always been a cunt and never a liberal. Just a me-first "libertarian" who hates women. Not surprised he has to pile on trans people.... 95% sure he's one of those who is mad at himself for being attracted to trans women.
I'm wondering about this Paxton shit --is this just a performative bullshit statement or is he putting enforcement action behind it? And if the latter, would it go county by county, or DPS combing through their records? Would records even identify that a changed gender marker was given, and why? I'm just hoping against hope for the sake of my family that a license issued about a decade ago with a different marker than before won't get flagged. Because this is some extreme horseshit to essentially overrule county courts and a state agency retroactively.
ETA: hoping not just for our own sake, but all those affected, obv .... and didn't Paxton order DPS to compile a list of folks before and DPS was unable to comply?
Re: lawyer's statements -- as we well know, there are often recantations from the alleged victims of DV. Why not let this sit for a day or two before smearing the victim and making this into a "no going back scenario" where they're tied to their version of the story... unless they know for a fact it's super ugly and she 100% won't recant.
What the fuck? I heard zero talk about "DEI" from Kamala's campaign and actually not a lot about abortion, and zero about trans rights. Nada. She had specific proposals about housing and medicare benefits. Goes to show the astroturfed movements and propaganda seeps in everywhere
Since the coup thread is taken over with grass talk, posting here. Called Cornyn's and Cruz's DC offices to register my opinion about the Musk takeover. Left a message w/Cornyn, but lo and behold a staffer actually answered Cruz's line.
Flood them with messages because why not.
Lots of helpful info and I appreciate it!
Man I really only want to ski a couple of days, 3 max. When I was a kid, I only took one day's lesson and was good to go on greens and even some blues. At least that was my memory. Tell me I don't have to put selves/kid in 2 days of lessons before we can just do the Valley? This is all sounding like a pain in the ass to me right now lol
