2010 is one of my all-time favorite “Oh, this is on? I must watch it again” films. John Lithgow and Roy Scheider together are spectacular, and

I really appreciated the concept that, in order to keep from truly screwing up the future, its best to send people/things back in time that truly know very little about the future, and are incapable of deciding to act upon any foreknowledge except their extremely limited purpose - that they must trust the people they…

Deputy A.G. Aaron Reitz, trying to out-Ken-Paxton current A.G. Ken Paxton.

All that bitching and she didn’t use the word “uppity”?

Watching it, it seemed like the U.S. was competing with each other for who would get the winning shot. As a result, nobody did.

So this is what the guy thinks about during his time off.  Weird.

It’s also important to trim the bottom branches because many insects won’t crawl up the plant stem from the ground - they will climb onto a leaf that they can reach and climb across the plant from there.

18 years ago, the GOP managed to put up a bill that gerrymandered the state even further than the one they had rushed through the legislature two years earlier. Texas Democrats left the state then, too. For nearly all of the next two decades, no Democrat was elected to statewide office. This time, Texas Democrats are…

Notice that they didn’t say Trump was lying - they said that the Voting System Companies say Trump was lying. This was merely avoiding a lawsuit, not a change of position.

I was born and raised in Texas, and Texas History has always been taught in the same awed tones that religious truths are taught in church. I learned all about the Native American tribal conflicts in West Texas, but when I asked about those in North Texas (what most would call the North-East part of the state), I was…

Whether Cosby wants it or not, he’s about to adopted by right-wing nutcases who will brand him a victor in the battle against both the “MeToo movement” and “cancel culture”.  Letting that happen may become the only way for him to earn a buck for the next decade.
