The next time you see someone saying that “Texas gets what they vote for” yada yada yada, tell them about Tarrant County losing 92! polling places today. Or that 4.8 million Texans voted for Kamala, more people than the total population of 20 states.

Initial MAJOR issue (iPhone user): my phone did not fully charge last night. After driving to work, I realize that despite “closing” the app, it was still running in the background. I deleted for the day and will try again tonight when I have time to check my settings.

Ok, @mapquest.com, let’s see what your game is like! Just downloaded MQ and deleted the other map app for a trial period. Fun fact: I last used MQ working a summer job at AAA as a special supplemental to the TripTiks we hand stamped with detours and construction.

If you’ve narrated a nature & conservation documentary titled #DeepInTheHeart and you’re a famous actor, you have a responsibility, obligation even, to speak up against the destruction happening in the Big Bend region. #MatthewMcConaughey #EthanHawke

Speaking of narrators for nature documentaries, where is Matthew McConaughey’s voice on protecting Big Bend (who narrated the original Deep in the Heart)? Or can he not speak up because he’s the living mascot for #AustinFC, sponsored by #YETI?

Jenica @jgillm.bsky.social · 18/08/2026
Ethan Hawke has a nature doc out Sept. 25 “Deep in the Heart 2: Texas Rivers.” He has an obligation to use his platform NOW to speak out against the destruction happening in Big Bend, or his film will deserve to flop. Please share if you have evidence of him speaking up. www.msn.com/en-us/entert...

That house has some excellent Midwestern porch action. I keep trying to convince my husband to move to the Midwest so I can buy a Craftsman house with original woodwork. Gorgeous.

THIS. I couldn’t believe how difficult it was to try to vote—to register, to find a map with polling places, to know WHEN A LOCAL ELECTION IS, etc when I moved to TX from MD. Happy voting!

If they can lie about the mortality of a US senator and get away with it they can lie about the results of an election and get away with it. Why don’t more Americans grasp this simple concept?

Ansari: There is no doubt in my mind that much of this war is about profiting the Trump family and Trump’s orbit. 18 U.S. service members have been killed. Thousands of Iranian civilians have been killed. Meanwhile, Donald Trump Jr. is making billions of dollars.

Thought I got a reasonable deal on ice cream only to realize that it was 1.5 quart (0.375 gallons) instead of the standard 1/2 gallon. Cans of diced tomatoes were $.10 higher but the size shrank from 12 oz to 10 oz cans. French bread loaf went from $1.00 to $1.25. Watch for shrinkflation.

Now is a great time to try out microgreens. I just broke out my kit that I haven’t used since the winter. Also, here’s some arugula from my garden (super easy to grow!)

Tonight at least the raccoon came at more of a reasonable hour—but brought along three cuter copies. They have mistaken my hummingbird feeders for Kool-aid dispensers. This one got left behind.

Politicians usually show up at the border to demonize & fear-monger. We just drove 750 miles from El Paso to the Valley to show off the beauty & potential of our border communities. We’re showing up for Texans along the border who've been left behind by both political parties.

A papaya smoothie is a delicious way to ease your parasitic diarrhea-fueled anxiety. Be sure to include the seeds (in small doses because they do contain small amounts of cyanide). -papaya with seeds Some possible ingredients: -mango -frozen banana -ginger -turmeric -plain yogurt -carrot -ice

The explosive diarrhea epidemic is more than an inconvenience for me. I’m a diabetic and have trouble finding foods that don’t spike my blood sugar so I rely on fresh produce. Mostly salad. I just want a functioning government and a CDC and FDA and NIH.
