@hollyanderson.bsky.social 1) hey friend 2) my son is 15 and is finding his inner college football fandom and asked me how I do this every weekend and my response was "my friend holly says that football is to be endured" and I think that really hit home for him

popping on here to say that the new doj ruling on disability stuff bums me out and is also totally unsurprising all at the same time!

disability aside I fuckin hate that these people are using disability and Down syndrome and whatever their decision was for clout. makes it impossible to have any sort of convo because it's all just clickbait

anyhoo. this is a good reminder for me to start a re read of neurotribes

there's a new nyt article about autism. my key takeaway is that we have to find a way to distinguish voices of/issues related to caregiving from issues related to disability itself

it makes so much sense. not the thing to go cheap on.

there's a lot of effort to change hearts and mind on social media and it's often annoying but I will say @seanlegg.bsky.social has 100% changed my views on tire buying for the better and I can't believe i was ever the way i was before

buddy id be pissing my pants if i pulled into the office only to find out that my dept chair and dean had been relieved of their duties this is bananas

for sure. I doubt we'll see anything like the Roger's commission. I think this hearing was about as close as we'll get.

real ones know about his partnership with 44 farms

040

I mean now it's no different than speculative investing backed mostly on a&m fans like me thinking that this is the year we finally get to 9 fucking wins

040

but unfortunately it devolves into Dan Patrick blaming the judge when given the current culture and delineation of roles you could put 99 other people in that same system and have the same output. The system itself needs to change.

120

just circling back to this and the challenger comparison is so spot on. there's a cultural barrier in place here as well that resulted in none of the three decision makers being onsite until well into the morning.

120

the other part to this point is that it very much became a boy who cried wolf thing even the officials said we got plenty of warnings but we get plenty of warnings at all times. the city manager said he turned off the warnings on his phone. how do we separate routine warnings from catastrophic ones

100

and like when you look at the maps and the policies there's the flood plain but also elevations and the elevations are just high enough to where it could be construed as within policies to build there but it's just not a good idea

000

the flood maps thing is huge. we poured over those fema maps and like you said exceptions were made to avoid the rules/laws instead of understanding the spirit of why the laws were there in the first place

100

Oh heck yeah gonna read now

right. my wife was a city manager in our small town and it ended pretty poorly due to 2 bad council members. local politics are just so messy at times.

would love to hear your thoughts!

sheriff, city manager qualifications, county judge -- all of those positions

having been at a&m during the bonfire collapse and the subsequent investigation and essentially grown up as an admin in that risk management era this page from the bonfire report is seared into my memory and is so applicable here

010

agree. im reacting to our nature to finger point and man there was failure at so many levels of this response that the only way to look at it is from a systems theory lens but i dont know if we have that capacity

010

it's the parable of the boiled frog here and it's true this was a once in a lifetime storm but it did not require a superhuman effort to respond. it did require a sound process and we didn't realize we didn't have one until we needed one.

I don't know if accountability is what I'm looking for I just want autopsy without blame. this was a monumental failure. I don't give a shit about someone being at fault. forget fault. it's our responsibility to ensure that we learn from this and fault is getting in the way.

yeah. people abdicating local influence for fear of some national influence boogie man
