Took calls from family across the country yesterday worried that we were going to die today in an apocalyptic flood, that a Biblical deluge was coming for central Texas. But "it's rained some" is all you would say about today

"We take no pleasure in being right, but the concerns raised by Ms Pike proved to be true: difficult vein access, blown veins, degraded pentobarbital, no emergency medical care available when things inevitably go wrong, all under a protocol that remains veiled in secrecy."

One of the main reasons fraternities still exist is that membership signals to potential employers that you’re capable of keeping institutional secrets, even when it means covering up illegal behavior.

This year, Austin basically had 10 straight weeks of ~100°F highs every day and ~zero rain. I guess you could maybe argue it cooled very slightly last week. But this week is the first week of something else. 🙌

Austin forecast highs: Monday 95°F, Tuesday 91°F, Wednesday 93°F, Thursday 83°F, Friday 80°F, Saturday 78°F

There is something so vulgar about the kind of conservative who came from a modest background, but strives to climb the same social hierarchies that once disadvantaged him by endlessly and shamelessly flattering those he now insists are our social betters.

I like that in becoming a nazi, you get glowing coverage as a brave iconoclast, and then when you stop being a nazi, you’re get glowing coverage as a brave dissident. Money coming and going. Only way you lose is having normal opinions like “racism bad” bsky.app/profile/trac...

Ramos’ attorney, Skip Davis, provided the Chronicle with copies of the probable-cause affidavit authorizing his client’s arrest, which refers to the Sunday protest as a riot. “Recorded and observed on Open Source Social Media Videos, Ramos is seen dragging a traffic control device and sandbags to obstruct the street without the authority to do so,” the affidavit states, stating that such an offense violates state law.

Did you know? During the Baby Boom, Baby Boomer Chuck Berry invented rock and roll, to which Boomers danced the night away at '50s sock hops

I got people (okay, just @adamgurri.liberalcurrents.com) in the Discord telling me that Boomers deserve credit for "Network," apparently on account of being the only generation who'd have seen it in theaters and are still actively discoursing in large numbers. Boomers never lose—they did everything.

I spent way too much of the last 25 years watching TV, and by my count I've only seen (at least a season of) 67 of the shows on the NYT Top 100 list, just 2/3.
