What’s the difference between State Court Clerks and #5thcir Clerks-5th Circuit Judges splash the cash for “Real” Tervis Tumblers & Fed clerks carelessly abandon them like a Starbucks drive thru cup. His state court clerks never would never have let this happen. @baffc.bsky.social #appellatesky

Dear #teamwillett, your once (& future) overlord will be disappointed at you leaving this behind. Why not just send a draft opinion to WAPO? His state clerks never got such cool bling & still managed to keep the office supplies accounted for. So 5th Circuit! #texapp #5thcir #appellatetwitter

Dear #Southwest Airlines, Absolutely had the worst customer service experience at MTH today-Rude, condescending and unhelpful. Not many gate agents have the gumption to tell a 67 YO Parkinson’s patients requesting wheelchair assistance that they might like to walk. So very disappointed.

Got to be so proud that we’ve been f’ing up the schoolchildren of Texas for over a century to make sure that a specific religious point of view gets ahead. So if Texas censors books & crams down religious texts all night long, It's just a family tradition! A proud centennial! #txlege

Why would any lawyer let their client testify before this committee under these circumstances? On the surface, several have suggested the camp‘s legal strategy to date has been, at best, tone deaf and at worst, probably ensured both criminal and civil consequences for the camp operators. #txlege

GIANT is 70 years old! It’s been around for almost 40% of the time Texas has been a state. And the fact that it explains more about this place than any other work SOOO long after it was made is perhaps the most trenchant commentary on how short of a distance we’ve traveled over that time. #txlege
