  1. The majority of the store employees that I've spoken with say it's been slooooooow for months.
  2. It has absolutely slowed down in Houston.
  3. I just hope the money trail for all these X scam leads back to Elon. No doubt in my mind he is allowing if not encouraging bots to juice his numbers. The real interaction prevalent on Twitter is almost non-existent now on X. Blue check bots spam the replies on any viral tweet. Fuck Elon.
  4. This is exactly the issue. Our eyes trained quickly to notice AI fake photos after being in awe at first. And I think our eyes will identify this new iteration of video, at least for now. But young people? Fucked.
  5. Taibbi is a massive douche as well, but more proof that Elon's "free speech" war cries are a bunch of bullshit. It's also funny that Taibbi in these texts admits he took it easy on Elon, most likely because of the Twitter Files info he was being fed. Pathetic all around.
  6. We're way past the "he's done more good for the world than bad" camp. And he's way worse than an internet troll and meme lord. He is manipulating social media and his sycophants for his political and social motives. He's a fucking menace.
  7. Fucking hell. Neighbors spoke with KPRC 2 Corley Peel about the red flags they noticed while living next to Genesse Moreno, the woman involved in the Lakewood Church shooting on Sunday. Several neighbors said Moreno harassed and threatened them for four years. “I’ve been through hell. I have reported this, reported this and its gone on deaf ears,” said Jill, a neighbor. “I’ve had psychological officers out here that won’t answer their door, they won’t do anything, until she hurts you there is nothing we can do. Everyone keeps saying on all these big news stations, see something say something.” Jill said Moreno had written swastikas on her property, placed baby monitors on a fence they share, and taunted her and her grandchildren multiple times. She added that she saw Moreno Sunday morning, hours before the shooting at Lakewood Church, and noticed Moreno placed a blue tarp over her vehicle in the driveway and was placing items she couldn’t see inside the car. Jill also noticed Moreno was carrying a trench coat in her arms that police said she was believed to be wearing when she walked inside the church. KPRC 2 also spoke with the teacher of Moreno’s 7-year-old son, Farrah. She said Moreno accused her of harassing her son. “She called the school saying I was stalking her house,” she said. A neighbor across the street said she filed a police report in July 2022 when Moreno pulled a gun on her. She said Moreno was not arrested. Between the group of neighbors, they have called police dozens of times and filed multiple police reports about Moreno’s behaviors. “We went to the courthouse and we talked to commissioners and we talked to elected officials. We cannot do anything more than what we did we tried to stop this. We tried to help the public,” another neighbor said. KPRC 2 reached out to Conroe Police Department asking why action was not taken after the neighbors reported the incidents. As of this writing, we are awaiting their response. https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2024/02/13/ive-been-through-hell-neighbors-say-lakewood-church-shooter-harassed-threatened-them-for-years/
  8. Um, some of y'all need to find Jesus and watch CLIFFHANGER again (or for the first time).
  9. Since the far-righters went all in on the shooter being transgender from the get-go, this police officer is saying that everything so far indicates this was a woman, and Elon and Co. are focused on the pronouns comment.
  10. I don't know. All I know about the shooter based on the X search is it's a transgender immigrant Bernie voter who had Free Palestine written on the AR-15.
  11. i went to Elon's "citizen journalism" X app and typed in Lakewood Church as I didn't see this news yesterday. Literally every post featured is from a hardcore right winger.
  12. I have a 6.5 year old and he loves the Nintendo Switch. The ex-wife actually started getting him into video games a year ago which kind of annoyed me at first. But I've come around to it. He LOVES Zelda: Breath of the Wild. We went to Ren Fest a few months ago and I got him an ocarina and "Master Sword". There is a lot of usefulness with this game in particular that I think benefits him overall. Tons of problem solving and creativity needed. HIs reading has improved greatly. He's an only child, and I'm going with the strategy of letting him play video games when he wants to. Obviously I put a time limit on it and make sure he's physically active, but I think it will pay off in the end. If you told me I couldn't do something as a kid, I'd want to do it even more. I think he's the same way. He barely touches his iPad anymore after being attached to it for a couple of years.
  13. Didn't Larry David get a divorce from his real wife right around the time he and Cheryl split up on the show? I agree their dynamic is great, but I'm guessing LD wanted to mimic his real life situation with being newly single. He gets so much of his material from real life experiences.
  14. Really interested to see what happens at RB in 2024. Baxter was solid all around but nothing spectacular, it looked like he was banged up most of the year. Excited to see what he can do fully healthy. Blue was a pleasant surprise, though I think he should still be a change of pace back and not get a heavy load of carries. I thought Tre Wisner looked good, showing a lot of toughness in a smaller frame. Now we bring in Gibson and Christian Clark. I don't know much about either, but have read some people who are really high on Clark. I'm assuming it's easier to convince RBs to share carries these days as the desire for a bellcow back is fading away. But that room is stacked. Fascinated to see how it plays out.
  15. Goddamn, this team needs Tari back ASAP. Defense is atrocious and we need his junkyard dog skillset.
  16. Pretty savvy of A&M to offer him $2,000,001.
  17. Don't jump, man. Think about your family.
  18. I don't really see a reason for Holiday or Tate to get significant minutes once Tari gets back. If we don't make any significant trades, just run with a 9 man rotation and get these guys ready to make a run next year.
  19. Really happy to see Amen thriving recently. He seemed pretty uncomfortable out there until 2-3 weeks ago, but now his confidence is growing and those elite skills are starting to show. I don't even know what to say about Whitmore anymore. Human highlight reel. Still can't get over him only being 19 years old. LOL WHAT A FUCKING STEAL IN THE DRAFT Can't wait for Tari to come back.
  20. 5th pick is a stretch, but I feel like NFL people will love Byron Murphy and consider his floor to be pretty high. I can see him going top 15-20 and being the first Longhorn off the board.
  21. It's not simple. And your inability to critically think about the situation makes more sense now that you've made it about you and your false rape allegation.
