Yep, father time is doing work. Not fast enough, but we'll take what we can get. I'd put over under at 5 years and put a nice chunk on the under.
Please let you be right. But I don’t think I have that kind of luck. Based on the last decade that motherfucker is going to live at least another dozen years and be in office for 8 of them.

I don't really understand what the fuck is going on here and how there are no leaks, but also how they can just not redact or conveniently lose files.
This. What the fuck. If there really is evidence that would be severely damaging to Trump, why the fuck wasn’t it released years ago and why the fuck aren’t people oppposed to Trump who know about it not talking about what it is? If there’s not evidence against Trump, why isn’t Trump just releasing the files? None of this makes any sense.

Democrats better not fucking cave. In fact they should up their demands. “No deal until we get Medicare for fucking all and you’re lucky we’re not demanding King Asshole remove the tariffs (but only because SCOTUS looks like it might take care of that for us. Go ahead and abolish the filibuster, UBI will be priority #1 when we get back in power, bitch.”

I wanted to write in one of our cats in 2016. Texas doesn't allow write ins though. At least not in presidential elections.
Texas did allow write ins for president in 2016. I wrote in (but I should have voted Clinton).

What this means is that over the next year, the fascists are going to take a super-maximalist, accelerationist approach to cramming their evil down America's collective throat. I'm talking "ram a firehose of fascism down our throat and crank it to max pressure" stuff. AND, they are going to octuple their efforts to suppress voting, shut down polling places, and just flat-out interfere with voting in any place where democrats may be found. The chances of Trump simply declaring a made-up national emergency (or creating one, like by literally going to war with Mexico or some stupid shit) and cancelling elections (enforced by the national guard and ICE, which will see its mission vastly expanded as they function as the Trump regime's STASI) just went up materially.
The next year is going to be hell on earth.
And if the dems have any fucking brains at all, they should WELCOME it. No compromise. No quarter. No nothing. Stand firm and fight, and make the fascists reveal themselves for what they are: grifting fucksticks stealing our nation for the benefit of their oligarch buddies just to serve the interest of their hateful little egos. Make them amp up their atrocities and theft, and make them do it out in broad daylight. And yield NOT A SINGLE FUCKING INCH OF GROUND. Just stand firm and tell them "no. Fuck off."
I just hope people making decisions about the path forward see yesterday for what it was: an indication that people will come out to vote against Trump, if the situation is dire enough. That means:
DONT STOP TRUMP FROM FUCKING UP THE COUNTRY. Voice opposition, use the courts where you can, but otherwise get out of the dumb motherfucker’s way. Do NOT help them reopen the government. Let Trump keep fucking up the economy and exacerbating inflation with his kneejerk negotiated tariffs. Let Trump turn Latinos against him by having ICE continually disappear people and arrest with no cause.
The worst thing that can happen over the next 12 months is for Trump to change course and we go into the mid terms with lower prices (if Trump abandons the tariffs), a functioning government (if Dems help them reopen and pass future spending bills), and ICE not a problem (with immigration “solved”). The Dems need to do everything they can to ensure the next year is a case study on failure of authoritarian governance.

What’s cool is that the small positives coming out of today’s results will cause 2 things:
1. Trump to claim election fraud and use it as an excuse to suppress the vote in blue counties next November.
2. Dems will claim the tide has turned and take their foot off the gas and fuck up in 2026.
The flickering ember inside of me is thinking that these No Kings rallies 2 weeks ago juiced turnout and there’s now some small momentum that just needs to be sustained for 12 months, and from there we can finally start to heal.
One thing is for sure, Democrats in congress should not cooperate with the Trump administration in ANY way. The more pain his base and the unengaged feel, the swifter the tide will turn.

Cheney is like the Oscar Robertson of pieces of shit. At one point he was easily in the conversation for top 5 pieces of shit of all time, and nobody would scoff if somebody brought forth that he was the biggest POS in history. But then a group of guys came along that completely revolutionized the piece of shit game, and now he’s so far down the list of pieces of shit that nobody even brings him up, even though he was an enormous piece of shit in his time. That’s more a testament to just how shitty these current pieces of shit really are. If you can make Dick Cheney a forgotten (or even redeemable) figure in the piece of shit game, you’re truly a transcendent piece of shit.
(ETA: Oscar Robertson AVERAGED a triple double in the 61-62 season.)

Gonna need a wellness check on Wulaw if he's not.
I will be very surprised if the Astros don’t trade at least one of Blubaugh, Pecko, or Ullola this offseason. Same for them trading at least one of Matthews, Melton, Cole, or Dezenzo. They’ve currently only got about $15M to work with and they have 3 glaring holes (2 SP and a backup C).

I suspect Houston is going to trade some of their near-ready young arms in exchange for a ToR SP, so executing signings like this will be important.

So AISD listened to feedback and made a change that was an improvement?
I’m mostly ignorant on the topic overall, but my guess is that the changes they made to the map in SW Austin probably kept a few dozen kids in wealthy families from going private vs what would have happened if they’d gone with the draft map.

Maybe, but a healthy org should be seeing junior management hired by other orgs in roles that represent promotions.
I know they are only starting the process of bringing in candidates for these bench and GM/scouting openings, but it’ll be interesting to see if they promote from within and/or which orgs do they hire from (in other words, a lot of comfort hire Atlanta guys might be nothing, might be a red flag).
I think there’s been some atrophy in scouting and coaching so new blood (outside hire) here would be preferable, imo.
They need to mine Cleveland, Brewers, Dodgers, Jays, and Twins orgs.

The new draft “fixed” the issue where they had split up our neighborhood and rezoned us to a different middle school.

How wrong am I to assume a TEA takeover wouldn’t really be a doomsday scenario (even though it also would certainly not mean an improvement)? TEA taking over the district just means a change in leadership not any change in available resources. Have Houston public schools gotten worse since they got taken over?

There was a save Bryker Woods rally this morning ahead of the superintendent’s visit. One parent was on the news saying they hired a data analytics firm to show closing the school would cost AISD money. Not sure they have all the relevant data to show that, especially with the 6.1 million in construction costs that are needed.
I think the district is in a tough spot with this one. If they continue with the closure plan, the protests will ramp up. I’m guessing there will be lawsuits related to the bond. If they take BW off the list then the perception will be that the rich white people are getting their way while closing minority schools.
Glad I don’t have to deal with this on a personal level anymore. Insert popcorn gif.
Yep they are in a tough spot. You could bring in the smartest people on earth and I really don’t think they could come up with a perfect solution under the constraints the district is under. There just isn’t enough money to satisfy everybody (and by that I mean there isn’t enough money to provide quality education for all the kids in the district while letting all the kids go to the school they want).

If that is what is needed to help balance the budget, I don't see the concern being worth the pearl clutching. Collect what money you can.
Zero people would have a problem with their kid going to HEB Elementary if it meant well funded, high quality schools. Unfortunately I doubt there’s meaningful money in it.

I want to be clear up front that I don’t think “government shutdowns” should be a thing and that legislation should be passed to automatically continue funding.
That said- for 30 years I have watched Republicans use the threat of shutdowns to bully Democrats into compliance, by holding a gun to the head of their own voters and forcing Democrats to be adults in the room. This is the first time the Democrats have said “pull the trigger,” and it has clearly unnerved the GOP caucus. I’m not sure where this ends, but as a matter of strategy they are in a far stronger position than they would have been had they rolled over again.
Dems better not cave here. This is potentially their one shot to get some sustainable momentum. If they continue to be the cowards they’ve been for going on a decade then we are all just more fucked than before.

Austin ISD School Consolidation
in Daily Texan
Posted · Edited by Snake Diggity
So wait, is the whole redistricting move delayed, or just the redistricting involving those 3 schools? How can they pause it for just those 3 schools???
