Sounds like we're having us a "California Secession and Oklahoma bulldozed" kinda day.

Flew to NYC last week, and after making it through TSA and to the gate, we're preparing to board, and they recheck all IDs for all passengers against their boarding passes, then rescreen carry on bags as we board. Like somehow your 30 second nosing through my bag with your wooden dowel is going to reveal something that was missed on the X-Ray tube that someone already scrutinized a mere hour ago. Flying home, they gave ZERO Fs.
Only reason I can think they gave a damn was the UN was in session in NYC. I'll hold off on the rest of the thoughts, but anyone wanting to cause harm isn't going to be travelling and recording their movements like that... -
"Non-profit operated the shelter in ways that did not align with Austin. It was run efficiently, compassionately, and within budget."
They absolutely need to audit the crap out of both ends of this relationship, but we'll see the Epstein files AND Jimmy Hoffa's body before the city admits any wrong doing or gives anyone a glance behind the curtains.-

You think that's bad, you should see what they use at the Stoops' homestead in Oklahoma...

I've gotta say, suspending the crew for that missed kick-off / punt crap is pretty bush-league compared to the crews we dealt with in the past (OSU 2022 or 2015, e.g.) That play did not change the outcome of the game, extend a drive, or really benefit the kicking team in ANY way. Hell, the receiving team got a good start due to the crappy kick. No seemingly malicious intent...
Let's start suspending crews for missed targeting, missed face masks, things that are actually critical for player safety.

Flying is a pain in the dick as it is...but this seemingly new practice of rear plane dwellers stashing their bags in the front overhead bins has to stop.
Has this always been a thing and I've never noticed? I've always put my bag above where I'm sitting?
What am I missing....what is the advantage of doing this other than making some poor sap (me) swim upstream when the plane lands, while everyone else is clamoring to get off?
Have you tried first class? They usually frown on the poors stashing their bags in 1st class. And you get to stare at the common folk smugly while they're stuck in line to get back to row 34, all the while you know you'll be in the first 10-20 people off the plane.

You poor thing. I'm sorry. We should all chip in and buy you an Apple Car Play or Android Auto compatible head unit.
Ha! I've got a newer truck, no worries on that. Just liked listening to Dudley and Bob back in the day, and old habbits die hard.

Stop listening to KLBJ-AM. Bad for brains.
I don't listen to any terrestrial radio other than KLBJ FM in the mornings. But go on with the "insult"

The expense account fracas is a perfect example of how Austin voters get distracted by nickels and dimes while dollars fly right by. The two biggest expense categories are police and fire, at about 37% and 18% respectively.
We have among the most well paid police in the state, and yet we struggle to recruit, most of our police don’t even live in the city and the quality of our policing is extremely mediocre. We have bigger fire trucks and more firefighters than we need, and yet we struggle to find funds for parks, underinvest in infrastructure, underinvest in EMS (which is why fire gets to EMS calls before EMS so often), our animal shelters are ghastly and rely on volunteerism to function, and we treat the enterprise departments like piggy banks.
And it’s funny, you know, because the people who bitch about salads? They’re the reason why. They’d rather live in a penny wise, pound foolish city that gives a blank check to the cops but can’t stomach the idea that a senior exec has an expense account. And then you whine about why we don’t have top talent even though we pay top dollar? My man, it’s the same reason nobody good runs for city council: the pay isn’t nearly enough to take such a bad job.
My argument isn't necessarily with the Sweet Greens bullshit, it's the fact that the one who's running the city has no problem spending our money like its his. You want to be a leader, LEAD BY EXAMPLE. Say what you want about Cronk, but he was a much better leader by comparison. He turned out to be the scapegoat for the winter storm that Austin Energy completely mishandled.
And the APD and Fire issues go beyond pay. We may pay well, but the risk with working for APD doesn't match the pay. Would you want to work for shitty leadership and a DA's office that is targeting you like a minor in a Penn State locker room? Same with AFD, there's a lack of confidence in leadership, staffing issues that don't match vehicle count, and the city is not interested in helping out their own, they'd rather find a way to cut costs on the NECESSITIES of public safety and piss it into the Homelessness coffers, public artwork in the airport, countless studies by NGOs, and new logos.So, yes, I agree, the spending account is pennies compared to the bigger picture, but it's indicative of a culture problem from the top. Again, LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

Fifty and they hit it out of the park, too. As always, Dallas does everything about being a city better than Austin and decades earlier. Probably because it has much smarter voters and far stronger civic leadership both inside and outside of city government.
TC "Sweet Green" Broadnax says HI.
I guess you can say Dallas shit-canned him before Austin did. But we have some parity, as we've got the same captain at the helm (a few years apart). Dallas and Austin both have their unique issues which makes it hard to compare. Dallas, being a huge metropolitan area with a very diverse voter base. Austin: eagerly awaiting the next chance to trip over their prius-driving micro-peens to vote in the next fake-it-til-you-make-it city councilmember... -

I listened into the city hall announcement about it, and they cited the all in cost of $1.1M for the logo redesign. But noted this isn't the cost of revamping all the logos out there (think shirts, cars, buildings, signs, etc). Those will be rolled out as the equipment hits EOL and is replaced.

We were shooting the shit at an impromptu happy hour at the office. Somehow the conversation moved to global warming, and my science denying coworker harumphed and said global warming is a HOAX and scientists are pandering to the politicians for grant money so don't believe a word they say. He somehow got the idea that even if all the glaciers melted, the oceans would only raise about 2"!!!
So we did what geeks do on a Friday night. We googled the data and did the math...
Antarctic glacier area is 5,400,000 miles², with an average thickness of 1.4 miles, so 7,560,000 miles³ of ice.
The area of all the oceans is 139,000,000 miles².
So if the Antarctic glacier completely melted, sea levels would rise about 0.0544 miles, or ~287 feet
My coworker, who honestly is a really nice guy until you bring up uhhh.... science, harumphed again and said you can't trust the data.
Anyway. SCIENCE BITCHES!!!
Also, doing simple math 3 whiskies in on a Friday night is harder than you think.
Okay, but how much of that 1.4 miles of thickness is below the water level currently? And does that take into account density of ice as a solid vs water as a liquid? And also that the water basin is not straight up and down, but more conical?

That man's smart. Can't get curb rash on your Prius if there's no curb to rub against. That man has middle management written all over him!

dumping a liquid on someone that is literally holding and presently operating a high pressure liquid dispenser just 2 feet from your face seems to be the least well thought out attack possible.

How is one supposed to build their immunity if you don't allow your kids to unload the silverware from the dishwasher?! Did y'all not grow up playing in the dirt, drinking from a water hose?!

What is it about a flashing red traffic signal that makes people's brains leak out of their left ear?
Driving west-bound last week or two on Bee Cave Rd, there was a power outage for at least three stop lights in a row. Cuernavaca light was out, and traffic was backed up to Barton Creek Blvd. Got through Cuernavaca, and the next two lights were completely dark (granted, this is like 4pm, sun shining...) After everyone treated the Cuerny light like a 4 way stop (as you should), no one bothered to even tap the brakes for the next two. Almost got a new truck from an Audi SUV doing 70 through the Creek's Edge stoplight. Dude swerved into the other lane to avoid hitting me or actually stopping like you're supposed to.

I'm hearing a MINIMUM of 2.5M spent on that logo. That mismanagement of funds should look good for that upcoming tax increase election...

Hope he get's a nice pension for being so helpful!
