Forget the scoreboard in DC. The chokepoint is in Austin.
I have a huge crush on Billy braggg to this day. Masterpiece heartache
Most Powerful Texas Politician Not Who You Think Dan Patrick struts around quoting Johnny Cash lyrics like it's a history textbook. He looks like a joke. But, he runs Texas. Every bill lives or dies at his desk. That's why his job is more important than Senator. open.substack.com/pub/lonestar...
The Office That Matters More Than The Senate Seat

Ending Patrick matters. Ten years of leverage over senators doesn't transfer. His successor starts from zero. A Democrat on that board outweighs one more vote in a building four hundred miles from where your rights get decided. Know your Lt. Governor candidates. That's where Texas law gets made.
Does anyone read Willie Morris, former editor of the Texas observer? Bud Shake? Bill Brammer. Put me in touch with the fella that wrote Texas literary outlaws.
What were ZZ Top like in the studio? I imagine work. Done. Idk. Someone hip me up.

My wife is always telling me I watch Caddyshack to much. I tells her she musta been something before electricity, then ask if she would like to earn $40 the hard way. I get no respect.

I prefer to call it Natures Light. It’s natures way of telling me everything’s fine. Natures way of telling me in a beer. 🍺
everybody's talking about the odyssey, but america has a meaty epic poem with countless interpretations all its own: john henry www.dontrocktheinbox.com/on-john-henr...
On John Henry, American Epic Poem
It's a nice idea that "This Land Is Your Land" should be our national anthem, a wonderful song full of generous and idealistic sentiment that's actually easy to sing. (That the Star-Spangled Banner sh...

A backwoods rounder AND a breaker of mules? You sure about that?
Maybe Carlos Sainz just doesn’t like you. Have you thought about that? It’s just racing (hair toss) still a big fan. Lfg. Also. Great race. Best trophy in F1 IMO
Nolan should adapt Faulkner or some shit next. Hell yeah save the gd humanities! Ethan Hawke made a cute lil movie adapting Flanner O’Connor with his daughter a while back btw
10. Whatever one thinks of the film as a work of art, it's doing some good in the world, by generating big conversations, bringing new audiences to the cinema, and new readers to ancient literature. I hope it helps save the humanities.
9. By far my favorite thing in the film is Robert Pattinson's hilarious and sexy Antinous. If anyone ever wants to make a spin off TV series with Antinous risen from the dead to mess with other mythical households, I would be so there for it.
Fresh off leading a DOJ "Religious Liberty Commission" that claims church-state separation is a myth, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick releases new 2027 priorities for the Texas Senate (which he leads). Among them: A Texas Legislature "religious liberty committee" to study the Establishment Clause.
Not one, but two articles about the Coral Reefer band show in the Star Telegram this am. I’m no Parrot Head, but.
Our next member of the Texas Railroad Commission — @jon-rosenthaltx.bsky.social! Don’t let the floridly racist GOP candidate, Bo French, anywhere near this important position. (The commission regulates the oil and gas industry.)
