Got a text from a friend a bit ago that prompted us talking about Leonard Nimoy having been a regular on the TV show Mission Impossible. So I googled and see that AI is um... not so helpful. Two issues with this: 1) it never begins to answer the question; I'll let you find #2. 🤔

Over the last few months I've become fascinated with Abundance, the new nominally liberal ideology pushed by liberal stalwarts like Ezra Klein. But if you peak behind the curtain and look at the funding you discovering something horrifying: Peter Theil, the Koch

I'm grieving today. Hard. As a 52 year Houstonion, I have loved this city. We aren't just losing our votes here. We are losing our blue cities: Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio... these fabulously diverse and awesome cities. Oases that Abbott and his criminal crew will destroy with this evil.

I just invited my 2 besties over for nachos and margaritas tomorrow afternoon (I adulted and cleaned my tiny house 😅) and then remembered they would be bringing their 4 dogs (2 each) to party with my 2 doglets and 2 cats and now I'm rethinking my life.

Neighbor showed up last night with a big container of banana pudding she'd made which was so sweet of her.

Tried it today after my fajita and... instant pudding.

Instant pudding should not be. I will die on this hill.

Everybody read this please. Explains a lot and we can cut them off.
If you work in/adjacent to Democratic politics, or even if you are an occasional Democratic donor, this new @adambonica.bsky.social piece is the most important thing you can read today.

The Democratic Party cannot build power if it allows scam pacs to thrive

TFW the hero defeats the ancient demon come back to bring evil darkness and annihilation over the world... against all odds... at the last second, bloodied and battered...

Movies never tell the story about when the hero fails.

Now we know.

People have a hard time grasping that this is partially about Dems sucking but mostly the media environment. Id suggest you turn it around and ask why the GOP’s faves are 20 points higher. Is anti-DEI an objectively good message? Is gutting Medicaid to give tax breaks for the rich good politics?
New WSJ poll: The Democratic Party is 30 points under water with registered voters, considerably worse than the GOP (-11). www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

Just paid a couple of bills. Took less than a minute. Old enough to remember when:

✔️Open stack of envelopes, pile thru junk for invoices
✔️Write checks, load envelopes, seal, add return address
✔️Go to the grocery store for more stamps...

Feelin' grateful to tech right now.

I’m not saying the Epstein & Colbert stories are distractions. They’re not.

But let’s also keep our eye on the bureaucratic evils unfolding under the radar.

This Texas state senator calls out her GOP colleagues for using the legislative session to create LISTS of citizens (in May).

Please watch 🚨

Top 4 reasons to love the induction stove:

#4 Valuable useful counter space when not cooking
#3 Easy to clean, no disassembly required
#2 Best cooking heat source I've ever used
#1... (unless you have a magnetic cat)

IIRC, the last time TX redrew its districts to gerrymander beyond redemption, the Democrats in the Leg actually left the country to deny a quorum for the vote. There were warrants for their arrest demanding their return.

Just a little background for when we hear TX Dems deserve what we get.
Representatives should not get to choose their voters. That’s ass backwards.

Well we know SOME alerts are working in TX. Just jumped outa my skin with my phone screaming an alert to watch for a 32 year old Asian man for involvement in the injury of a LEO. He's near Ft. Worth. I'm in Houston, a long, long way away.

This. While all the attention paid to NWS/NOAA cuts is valuable and needed, Abbott et al cannot be ignored as the most responsible player in these deaths. Warning systems are available and were requested but funding denied.
Come to find out the State of Texas received an alert PDS (particularly dangerous situation) 18 hours before the floods hit. Texas is lying to cover up their failure to respond in a timely manner! Gregg Abbott lied again to his own constituents. When do we stop this BS?
