Texas A&M Football 2025 - On the Edge of Glory(holes)
I had the pleasure of witnessing the road loss to Cal in person, but did I blackout and forget a loss to Stanford recently?

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
It brings me some measure of joy to see Rubio looking like he wants to off himself in every single still I've seen of him since he joined this administration.

The Climate thread
The administration continues to fuck conservation in any way possible. https://www.texastribune.org/2025/08/13/muleshoe-wildlife-refuge-donald-trump-texas/

Trump puts Washington police under federal control, National Guard to be deployed
This is a hilarious hypothetical for someone slashing medical research funding. Next you're going to tell us that Trump could put an end to pedophilia and the libtards will just cry about Trump surveilling our bedrooms.

A person so insane even Trump's inner circle had to tell him to stop hanging out with her.

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
As a guy with a 3 and 1 year-old, I can confidently say that I'm in the worst shape of my adult life.

Unacceptable risk to national security, letting dying brown kids into the country for medical care. Fortunately Loomer, a person who somehow has sway in our government, put an end to it! https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-gaza-laura-loomer-medical-visas-hospital-1235410184/

Texas Football 2025 - Seven Win Steve Rides Again
For going to back-to-back semifinals, having a Manning at QB and being ranked #1, I feel like everyone, including some of this board, is kind of dismissing the likelihood of this being a dominant team. Who knows what will happen, but choosing anybody but Texas to be THE Team this year seems to be the trendy pick.

Looks like essentially all of the summer reports are from around the Tower and Town Lake, occasionally Hornsby. They are definitely around outside of breeding season, usually passing through. American kestrel is the falcon that may be around a little more year-round, but they are also not very common from June-August or so.- Trump’s America
Kirk is a catch-22. Yes, that condensed, creepy, smarmy little face is asking to be punched. But any subsequent change in his appearance couldn't be anything but an improvement.- Texas -- a failed state
Anecdotal, but in one of my now regular arguments with my parents since reestablishishing contact, my Dad did acknowledge that Paxton and Patrick specifically are clowns that he wouldn't vote for again. How does he not see that the average R, especially in Texas, is 99% as bad? Not sure. Small victories, I guess...- Trump’s America
The fucking losers the Rs latch onto as their thought leaders is truly insane.- Trump’s America
Hmmm, I wonder where the cartels get a bunch of their guns that make them such an issue to begin with...- Birding
Yes, not in great numbers. But there's been a female who has attempted (unsuccessfully, at least as of a couple years ago) to nest on the Tower. So a rare breeder, but they certainly pass through during migration with some regularity.- Trump’s America
Straight to the parents. Thanks!- Trump’s America
Just a J6er urging insurrectionists to kill cops now working for the DOJ. Super normal. https://www.npr.org/2025/08/07/nx-s1-5493197/doj-trump-jan-6-defendant-jared-wise-capitol-riot- JD Vance Fucked 5 couches as a hillbilly, then went on to kill the pope
Can't afford to fund the NPS, but can have the army corps of engineers adjust river flow at the VP's whim so he can get his kayak on. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/aug/06/jd-vance-ohio-lake-water-levels- Trump’s America
Yea, but that covers 2.5% of the annual increase to the ICE budget. You really think mRNA vaccines help people 1/40th as much as those heroes in masks?- Birding
I finally went to a purple martin party. They're at the shopping center with Target at 45/35. Probably a couple hundred thousand birds roosting in a handful of trees before moving down to South America. It's a pretty crazy sight and a bigger event than I knew. There were probably 300+ people watching them come in with Travis Audubon hosting an information booth. Highly recommend.- Colorado Vacation Destinations - Not Quite So Crowded, But Still Cool
We went to Lake Irwin to start the day and just hung out for a while, before making our way over to Gothic, where we hiked to Judd Falls. The toddler faceplanted on the trail almost immediately, but quickly recovered. I probably ended up carrying him half the hike while my wife had the baby in a backpack, so we're pretty beat now. I would recommend either location, particularly Lake Irwin. Trek home begins tomorrow. Shucks.- Colorado Vacation Destinations - Not Quite So Crowded, But Still Cool
I think increasing elevation 3,000 ft every day or two has done a decent job acclimating them, since we stopped in Lubbock for a night on the way out. Just fighting the dry skin and lips, or unsettling red eyes in my case. My 3 year-old told me unprompted my eyes were scary the other day.- Colorado Vacation Destinations - Not Quite So Crowded, But Still Cool
Baby woke up at 4, so we hit the trail at the base of the mountain at dusk. Once everyone else woke up and ate, we took a trail up Snodgrass. Other than not being a fan of horse shit on the trail, the 3 year-old managed to do the 1.5+ miles all on his own. Other than looking like the highest person in Colorado thanks to the dry air and early wakeup, things are going surprisingly smoothly and enjoyable with 2 little ones. - Birding
