Lyndon Baines Johnson

Voted for Amanda Edwards this morning. Let's get this done and finally fill that seat in TX-18. -OS

Somewhere out there, an Aggie is furiously masturbating to the fantasy that the Ags hired Cignetti instead of Elko. Of course, that would never happen, because it would've required Aggie to do something smart. -OS

Martin Luther King and Lyndon Johnson. Frederick Douglas and Abraham Lincoln. There are no other two presidents who are more closely linked to the civil rights champion of their times, and no two civil rights champions ever closer to ear and inner council of a president. -OS

CORE - Congress of Racial Equality (heavily affiliated with the CIO and later AFL-CIO, particularly the United Auto Workers)

SCLC - Southern Christian Leadership Conference. King's organization that emerged from the Montgomery Bus Boycott. -OS

L to R: James Farmer (CORE), Roy Wilkins (NAACP), Gerri Whittington (secretary to the President, the first Black woman to work in the West Wing), Rev. Ralph Abernathy (SCLC), and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (SCLC). -WJ

Live by Caleb Williams, and you'll die by him, too.

Houston Texans Defense -- a Lyndon Johnson led Senate.

Houston Texans Offense -- a Kevin McCarthy led House. -OS

Houston's defense is like the ship channel -- reduces the life expectancy of everyone within 15 miles of it by 20 years. -OS

Shitty weather, Houston just needs to run the ball and let that defense go nuts.

The cut of an Astros and Mariners fan is very different than the NFL. Both Houston and Seattle have much more salt of the earth industrial pasts that show-up more visibly in their baseball fans. The NFL is for millionaires in hoodies. And Houston and Seattle have a lot of that too. -OS

The sheer density of crappy Rivian batteries at Levi's Stadium overloads all the chargers in the Bay Area. -OS

And no hate. We know those yoga pants in the Montrose HEB aren't for us, but we're still there! -OS

Oil dilettantes, meet tech dilettantes. You're the same people. Good luck finding your specific Rivian in the parking lot. -OS

A Houston vs. Seattle Super Bowl would be attended almost exclusively by millionaires who dress like homeless people or Persian night club owners. It would be so glorious. -OS

At the end of the 1990s most of the NFL decided to replace their uniforms with something worn by a roller derby team.

Fact of the matter is most of the NFL's uniforms look like shit compared to how they used to look. Even your Eagles look like they play -- horseshit.

And I'll also root for Tom Brady to find a new hobby, because he sucks ass at broadcasting.

Of course, I still have to root for the team in Houston. I'll never support a Jerry Jones-owned Cowboys team, but I'll root for a good team in Houston, even if its a crime that they aren't the Oilers anymore.

I find the Bears fuckin' annoying, so I hope Seattle gets a chance to feed them their nuts.

A Super Bowl of this Seattle defense vs. Houston's defense? Both Darnold and Stroud would die. -OS

The English language has enough adjectives to describe feats of athleticism and excitement that you don't need to misappropriate the conduction of current. What you need is a dictionary/thesaurus. -OS

Any sportscaster/journalist who uses the phrase "________ is electric" should be sent to the gulags or the Salvadorian murder prison. -OS

Nothing beyond the usual ambient idiocy. -OS

One of the regents is literally just a CEO of a Pinkerton-like agency. And another is just an illiterate realtor from Madisonville. -OS

The real achievement in Texas higher ed is that Texas and Aggie exist, and yet somehow its the Texas State University System that manages to have the drunkest, craziest, stupidest board of regents. -OS

"Oh, Gendarme! So does that mean you're a bottom or a top? Or do you switch?" -OS

Dumb motherfuckers trying to impose the Swiss style of citizenship when most Americans probably think a Gendarme is a subset of gay sexual roles like an otter or a twink. -OS

It's a crazy world we live in where American conservatives have gone whole hog into the absolutely most foreign elements of modern European culture and libs are like "bro, this is 'Murica, we do don't do that stupid shit here." -OS

The whole American administrative state was purpose-built around the concept that if you're paying into SSID then we don't give a fuck about the details. And that's a good thing. -OS

At the grand scale, economically and logistically it just isn't necessary for almost anyone in this country to prove their citizenship beyond having a social security number for a W2. And it would be an onerous burden on businesses and our whole society if that weren't the case. -OS
