there are a lot of people working in the government right now who want to intentionally trigger an apocalypse to create the conditions for the return of jesus christ and I know how crazy that sounds but its absolutely true

My family is fortunate enough to have basically choppered our daughter out of Texas. (Insert "Get to DA CHOPPA!" meme.)

Not everybody can do that. People need help.

I selected a candidate and voted early. I'm done. I should avoid the discourse.

But let it be known that for the Texas Senate race, I will throw the entire weight of my lumpen body behind the winner in the general election.

Me: I wish more people paid attention to Texas politics.

Also Me: Not like that.

We kicked off a romantic Valentine's Day with South Texas Benedicts. I don't usually eat pork (sausage), so I farted romantically for the next 24 hours, yet I am not sorry.

I watched Surya Fucking Bonaly DO the backflip in real time.

We were waiting and watching. Will she do it, even though it's banned?

And then she did it. Because she's Surya Fucking Bonaly.

One reason Minneapolis remains in the world's eye is we have one of the most robust & independent media ecosystems remaining in the country. You all need this...and more! @mprnews.org @startribune.com @sahanjournal.bsky.social @minnesotareformer.com @minnpost.bsky.social @racketmn.com etc.

"In 2025, Aplin gave money to the campaigns of Gov. Greg Abbot, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, House Speaker Dustin Burrows, Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham, and state legislators Joan Huffman, Trent Ashby, Kelly Hancock, and Angelina Orr, according to data from Transparency USA. All are Republicans."

It's lonely to be a Buc-ee's hater in Texas, but I'll say it: It's a bizarrely unpleasant place, and your "beaver nuggets" fund the Texas GOP.

Apparently there was a city meeting in Hutchins, Texas, tonight. Hutchins is the location of DHS's newly announced 10,000-person concentration camp. What I've been told is that city officials were unanimously and adamantly opposed to it.

Unfortunately, I'm seeing this nowhere online.

People who live elsewhere sometimes ask me, "Marrit, why is Texas so fucked?" And that's a perfectly cromulent question.

But when I say, "Wilks and Dunn," the answer doesn't satisfy them. They want to believe that we are uniquely stupid people, not a petrocracy.

Congratulations to my friend and our newest State Senator from Tarrant County, Taylor Rehmet! I met Taylor years ago through labor organizing.

Don’t tell us what can’t be done in Texas. When we show up #TexasTough, we change the game. Today we proved what we’ve known all along: Texas is in play.

Every instance in which the Trump administration is forced to make changes, even cosmetic alterations like removing Bovine, is a good sign that US democracy is not yet dead.

Trump wants unchecked power. But public and political opinion still matters - and that should encourage resistance.
