What’s the deal with your fixation on the midterms in Texas? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This post is less of an article, and more of a personal rambling. I’d apologize, but it’s been a minute since I’ve done one of these so… I’m not actually sorry. You may have noticed that since I started writing again, I’ve been sticking with a particular theme. Namely, making sure Texans are checking their voter registrations, and that they see that the choice isn’t so much between Republicans and Democrats, as it is between still having water to drink, and handing our dwindling supply over to t
The Roadblocks to voting in Texas are almost comical at this point. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Good news you guys, we solved one of the reasons that Texans who registered to vote don’t have active registrations yet!Bad news: it’s because of a massive system error that has counties scrambling with two weeks left until the registration deadline. Short version of the story: if you used the loophole to the “no online voter registrations” thing when you renewed your driver’s license online, your application may not have actually been sent in to the county. <div class="captioned-image-cont

THAT’S FAIR. As with the other two of the Big Scary Three, The Tower isn’t inherently bad; but it is a harbinger of demolition. The thing is, that the thing being demolished is already unstable, it needs to go, and you probably already know that. Remember how the last card we learned about (The Devil) po
This is what I mean when I say Texas is killing women. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In case you thought I was being hyperbolic when I said that Texas is killing women, one family is suing Ken Paxton for his role in the death of their loved one. Tierra Walker was 37, a Texas mother, and she died due to preeclampsia at 20 weeks pregnant in December of 2024. Not only that, but her 15-year-old son was the one who found her dead body at home on his birthday. And as much as I wish that was as bad as this already awful story gets, it gets so much worse. <a class="image-link image2 is-
