  1. English motherfucker, do you speak it? Driver’s license /= voter registration
  2. Right, the issue is that the lege is not longer in session when the veto occurs. It’s never been texted but some even argue the veto can only be overridden in the same session in which it originated, meaning the lege couldn’t override even when they come back. The only real solution that would be at all workable would be a sort of peremptory veto override, whereby bills passed by 2/3 or both the House and Senate go into law without the Governor’s signature.
  3. I don’t really know what the fix is but it’s absurd that the Governor can veto a bill after the session has ended and the legislature is then barred from overriding that veto for two years.
  4. Roughly 50k Texas residents become naturalized citizens each year. Since 1996, that'd be over one million people. So that would be fewer than 10% of those who got an ID or driver's license prior to naturalizing and who then registered to vote and/or voted after becoming a citizen.
  5. The acting and the chemistry between Mortensen and Ali is enough to make it watchable but the story is just formulaic “white person actually gets to know a black person and learns racism is bad” schlock.
  6. That sucks. She seemed like a great woman with a promising life and career ahead.
  7. I would vote for it over every nominee other than A Star is Born.
  8. Same. It was a complete slog to get through.
  9. I’m not sure if it’s a good idea or not but I think the idea is incentives for improving scores, not for high scores. So a teacher in Eanes isn’t likely to get incentives because the students are coming in with good scores.
  10. And the other 5% got struck. That we even allow the state to use peremptory strikes in jury selection is perverse.
  11. There’s a burger place/bar by the gondola that was good when we tried it last year. California Burger or something like that.
  12. What have today's elders done exactly that merits respect?
  13. Not for sexual assault (or manslaughter/murder)
  14. Heavenly is super convenient but Kirkwood is the best skiing in the area
  15. It would be nice to see the hundreds of thousands of people of color who have been equally victimized by prosecutors similarly benefit. Unfortunately they'll just get told by judges that the error was harmless and to kindly go fuck themselves.
  16. They’d still have to add him to the 40-man roster though right?
  17. Opening in IMAX tomorrow
  18. Unfortunately that new normal is why we’re going to have a work stoppage in two years.
  19. No real surprise but Bonnen has been officially named speaker.
  20. Nope. Nor is it unfair to question a judicial nominee about his ability to do so.
  21. The only accusation of racism was in Parliament’s fever dream.
  22. At which point you would be fined and/or jailed.
  23. And you think it’s unreasonable to ask a nominee who belongs to a group that discriminates on the bases of sex and religion whether he believes membership in that group violates that canon?
  24. I’m not sure how many chefs would want to do back to back seasons. Long time away from home and family and business. And prevents them from pouncing on any immediate opportunities that arise from having been on Top Chef.
