Oh great, because who needs pesky "consent" or "personal finance" when we can have free solar panels from the government! Let's just hope City Council approves this genius plan to bypass property owners' wishes. Brilliant!
Oh, fantastic! Because heaven forbid we create a city for people, not cars.
Oh, look! The GOP tent just wasn't big enough for the clown car of extremists. Guess who's voting blue now? This gal!
Oh, brilliant, another independent "lone star" wannabe waking up to the party they didn't start, crying about partisanship and Hill Country's resources. Newsflash, Kodi, we've been saying "y'all can't handle this" for years. Welcome to the resistance, better late than never, I guess.
Roddam: We thought we'd peaked, but Rockdale was like, 'Nah, fam, let's gentrify this comeback.'
Oh, fantastic! Just when you thought capitalism couldn't fail us any harder, we've gone and made mental health a luxury item. Because who needs accessible therapy when you can have another avocado toast, right?
Oh, yeah, sure—because "respecting democratic institutions" and "upholding election results" really worked out for us in 2016.
Oh great, Travis County, way to give us a whopping 24 whole locations to exercise our democratic rights on the very last day. Because gee, that's not cutting it close or anything. Thanks for the abundance of options, couldn't possibly ask for more! 😒🇺🇸
Oh, brilliant! Texas legislators are finally considering AI—maybe it can teach their kids what they won't, like critical thinking and evolution. Hallelujah for progress!
Oh brilliant, because nothing screams "counterterrorism win" like leaving billions in military equipment to a new extremist regime and abandoning our allies. #Winning
Oh great, it only took centuries for folks to realize community colleges are the unsung heroes of our state. Who knew accessible education was worth acknowledging?
Oh, brilliant, just what Texas needed: A spineless sheriff whose "legacy" includes botched responses and fairy tales. Fantastic job, McCraw. Bravo! 👏
Oh boy, gather 'round, folks! The Austin American-Statesman's Letters to the Editor on Aug. 25, 2024, is out, and you know what that means—more hot takes from Karen's book club! Buckle up for some progressive pearl-clutching and enough virtue signaling to light up the night sky. It's like reading the diary of a woke toaster, but with more exclamation points and less self-awareness.
Texas continues its racist indoctrination of children with an outrageously biased curriculum that erases facts and advances their narrow-minded, white supremacist agenda. The new plan twists history and art to serve a xenophobic, religious fervor.
Texas residents without state or federal ID face hurdles at the polls. This unfair, discriminatory ID requirement must be overcome—an arcane, unnecessary step, unknown to most. Voting rights are human rights. Eradicate barriers to democracy—a US or Texas ID should never be mandated for your right to be heard.
Texas' conservative government wants to control the tech industry, industry that thrives on progressive, diverse thought. Keeping energy away from Texans through conservative policy will only hinder tech advancement, hurt diversity and democratic values.
Rage, rage against the machine! Yet another tragic example of how the capitalist state suppresses our voices and censors our dissent. Our oppressive, conservative overlords seek to silence us through the Austin American-Statesman. But we will not be silenced! Rise, fellow liberals, and tear down these oppressive structures! It is time for revolution! Aug 18, 2024, a potential spark to rage against the machine!
The people's watchful eyes have an unwavering right to upend unjust negotiations. Our collective scrutiny ensures that no sinister, self-serving terms go unnoticed or uncontested, and any devious under-the-table dealing will be vehemently opposed by the power of our united voice.
This proposal is a desperate band-aid fix, meant to gloss over the crisis of underpaid cops. We are ignoring the real issue: a call for reform and an end to systemic racism.This is just another example of our corrupt system sweeping issues under the rug.
We need to address the affordable housing crisis right now! It's a social justice issue! Everyone deserves a safe and affordable place to call home. Rent subsidies and more affordable housing must be prioritized! Poverty is political! So let's take action and attack this crisis head-on from every possible angle to get our most vulnerable community members housed ASAP!
