  1. They've platformed on "thoughts and prayers" re school shootings for decades. Why should a rolling back a bullshit, unenforceable no porn on the internet law hurt them?
  2. And turned a nice city into a shithole, something the fuckhead Gerg Casar did to Austin for a year or so.
  3. Again this adds to the weirdness because a gun goes off in the middle of a ballpark stands in the middle of a game and no none except those impacted even acknowledges it. The only way I knew is at 0:12 mark, the affected parties stand like what the fuck and then start waving for ball park attendants at the top of the stands.
  4. https://www.thebiglead.com/posts/gunshot-victim-white-sox-game-snuck-weapon-fat-folds-01h917mvnwp1 Two women were wounded by gunfire during Friday night's Oakland Athletics-Chicago White Sox game at Guaranteed Rate Field. The incident in the left field bleachers did not stop the game at all and made for a bizarre and confusing story over the weekend with many people speculating where the bullets may have come from. This morning it was looking more clear that whomever fired the gun must have been inside the stadium. ESPN Chicago's Peggy Kusinski provided the next chapter of this tale with a tweet for the ages indicating that one of the injured women had snuck the gun into the stadium by holding it in the folds of her belly fat. Halfway up the screen, directly up from R and M of Statefarm sign. Happens at about 12 seconds. 1. Why does she need to sneak a gun into a baseball game? Is some blind dude who has a kink for fat rolls going to try to rape her? 2. She hides the gun in her fat roll which gets it through metal detectors. Absolutely incredible. 3. Hardly anyone flinches when the gun goes off. Granted it is probably muffled by the thick ass roll of fat, but incredible that no one around her remotely flinches. "What's that loud gunshot bang noise? Eh, just some gun hiding in the fat roll of an obese woman going off. What's the pitch count, again?"
  5. Mildly disappointed there's not more destruction. Where are all the bodies in trees?
  6. Did your toilet raise the white flag? No mas, por favor. Piensa en los niños!!!!!
  7. I thought that's what happens when you use the restroom after gorging on Pancho's buffet.
  8. but the children...... I knew the answer but wanted to posit that question for any dipshit who even thinks that this is going to deter anyone from viewing porn on the internet. Any dipshit who thinks this is a good ideal is probably going to cognitive dissonance the shit out of his mah freedoms if the State is going to dictate that the ISPs enforce this law. This law will NOT do a fucking thing to prevent someone from the state of Texas from viewing porn on the internet. Some shady porn company in Belgium is going to filter by IPs and put an age check before you can visit their website from Texas?
  9. Depends. Are you planning to internet fuck a porn chic and do you live in Texas. If the answer is yes, the maybe. I'm not sure all porn sites around the world are going to install IP filters to be legal with a Texas law. Actually this begs the question. Is the State of Texas expecting all global internet sites to enforce the law and filter by originating IPs or are they expecting your ISP enforce the law and monitor your traffic for when you visit a "porn" site?
  10. This maybe gives an idea of the projects supporting the homeless. This project was just recently cleared by the courts to proceed. I'll get to the meat which is the financials. https://communityimpact.com/austin/north-northwest-austin/government/2023/08/29/judge-rejects-williamson-county-challenge-over-austin-homeless-housing-project/ Soon after Austin council members approved the property's purchase for $9.55 million in August 2021, Williamson County officials stated their displeasure with how city leaders handled the process and voted to sue Austin over the homeless housing plan. Pecan Gardens is expected to open with 78 one-bedroom apartments for chronically homeless clients with substance use disorders, mental or physical illness, or developmental or physical disabilities. The facility will be one of several converted hotels that will serve as PSH throughout Austin. Pecan Gardens was initially expected to open at some point in 2023. According to the city, move-ins may now begin after renovations wrap up in early 2024. Nonprofit Family Eldercare was brought on to manage the rehabilitation of Pecan Gardens for $3.9 million. City Council also approved a contract with the organization worth up to $5.88 million over five years to provide supportive housing services once Pecan Gardens opens. Ignoring the initial $9.55M to purchase the building and the another $3.9M for I don't know what to the group running the home, the 5 year "supportive housing services" $5.88M contract equates to a monthly cost of $1,256.41 per person. That's a fuckton of money to house and support any druggy dipshit who shows up at metro area. Think of many different ways the city can use $1,256.41/per person to help tax paying citizens of the area who are struggling to survive in these times. Instead, if you show up homeless at the city limits, we are going to pay $1,256.41 to house and probably feed you. Seems like a good deal for any homeless in the state to relocate to Austin. Is there a limit on how long the homeless can stay or how many times they can go through the program? Can a homeless dude get rent free housing for 5 years? Can they still use drugs on property? What if they commit crimes, are the removed from the program?
  11. Yall can bitch all you want about in-laws but those mother daughter videos are real.
  12. During it's founding, some clever dude conveniently left off the "r" in the city's name.
  13. The subject matter of this painting commemorates an orgy held in GHUY's honor upon returning from the war. Picasso and Gris made headway in Synthetic Cubism, while GHUY resumed the development of his own style, still Cubist, but more concentrated on sexual realism. Pied Piper Shoving his Flute up Liberty's Ass depicts doggy style flattened out in the pictorial plane as GHUY had done many times before, but here he replicates the texture of wood and marble, and even marbleizes the erect penis.
  14. actually, that would be "driving up revenue for producers." Who gives a fuck about consumers?
  15. Already discussed on this thread... Texas leadership is committed to making sure their O&G buddies make as much money as possible. More money they make, the more money they can buy off, I mean contribute to the Representatives' re-election campaigns. https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/news/2023-08-30/gas-and-coal-outages-behind-ercots-constant-calls-for-conservation/ Solar power has been helping ERCOT avoid rolling blackouts, but thermal energy (gas, coal, and nuclear) has been lacking and was behind the call for conservation Tuesday night. On Aug. 29, thermal outages were beyond what ERCOT defines as “extreme,” at 4+ GW above the 30-day average, energy researchers pointed out – about 120% more generation offline than ERCOT defines as typical. So far, ERCOT has not explained why thermal generation dropped so significantly on Tuesday. To make up for these outages and reduce demand, advocates have been pushing energy efficiency programs. Though the Public Utility Commission (PUC) received recommendations for improving efficiency from the Energy Efficiency Implementation Project earlier this year, they have yet to implement them. Advocates also wonder why there is no demand response program – or why we aren’t getting paid for the voluntary conservation we’re doing. ERCOT already pays bitcoin miners and other major manufacturers that use a lot of energy for their conservation, but the only way for Austin residents to get compensation is to enroll in Austin Energy’s bill credit program for installing a smart thermostat. In an even more puzzling move, ERCOT may vote Thursday to drive battery storage out of their ancillary services reserves – the batteries that provide backup power when the grid fails. In his Energy and Power newsletter, energy consultant Doug Lewin says, “ERCOT has made very clear it intends to banish storage resources from this market,” driving up costs for consumers.
  16. What would be the icing to a magically shitty year is to have another Icepocalypse where I again have to melt snow to take a shit. Then this would go down as the worst weather year ever, until it happens again in the not too distant future.
  17. This fuckstain is cut from the same cloth as McGuire. Beat their chests cause they know that they are shit. Self importance is all they have. No matter how much they win or lose, they'll always be Tech, a school no one gives a fuck about. No matter how many teams the Big 12 has, it'll still be made up of teams no one nationally wants to watch. "I cannot wait for that UH - Central Florida match up!", said no one ever except a handful of UH and UCF alum. I hardly watched any non-University of Texas Big 12 games outside of the occasional OU and Ok State games. After Texas leaves, I sure the fuck aint gonna watch that any of that shit. I'll watch as many Big 12 games as I watch Conf USA football games. Besides New Mex State, I have no fucking idea who is in Conf USA. That's the allure of a post Texas Big 12. This fuckstain is pissed because he knows this, so he acts like a spurned little bitch. Texas and OU will take with them any remaining luster and importance that the Big 12 had.
  18. The neighborhood kids will paint graffiti art on the walls of all the pools for free anyway. Why pay for it?
  19. This storm will put the nail on the coffin for home insurance in FL. After this storm, all of the insurers will have left the state.
  20. Nola is on the commie communal Eastern grid. We don't do commie in Texas. Better to not have electricity than to have a shared sustainable grid. Texas O&G dudes:
