Some memes perfectly capture what's at stake for Talarico vs Paxton

Austin, where cops can speed while texting like absolute fucking taintlords and then get a baby slap on the wrist from prosecutors when they seriously injure people. www.kvue.com/article/news...

🔥Austin Summer 2026 Meme🔥

"Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?" --George Carlin

Whether it's James Talarico driving a pickup truck he doesn't own in a commercial or Ken Paxton freeing a convicted pedo he's buds with early from jail without making him register as an offender, we can all agree that both Texas Senate candidates have integrity issues" --Mainstream Texas Media

My new Venn is here, starring Ken Paxton, Crack, and A.I. 🍟

Talarico is up 5 points on Paxton Conventional Wisdom: "Wow, that's amazing!" Me: "How the fuck is it only 5 points?"

I'd like to report a murder

So, Bluesky apparently let me back on here without disclosing my identity let the party continue LMFAO

Hey, love all y'all but Bluesky is making me submit personal information as a precondition to using this site, which I refuse to do for obvious reasons. So, for the time being, this is why I'm being so quiet. Hope to see you down the road on here but not sure

If it had been Talarico caught voting illegally, the prevailing narrative would have been that the election is over for him The reverse should also be true for Paxton, but it's not The double standard in Texas politics is wild

BASH: There's an olympian - David Hearn - who was indicted. He faces 10 years in prison. He says he didn't do anything other than reach into the reflecting pool. Do you really think he should face a 10 year sentence? BURGUM: Just bc you were a former something doesn't exclude you from the law

Cybertruck Meme #69

It has been a long fucking July

The real ones know

When you don't wave in Texas after they let you merge

ATTN: All y'all relying on A.I. to serve up accurate facts, here's a tiny sample from a story I'm dropping next week showing how A.I. dangerously tailors reality to fit users' expectations
