Surly kids applying / attending UT
It is official - my oldest can go to UT if he wants. We got his EOY junior transcript and he's in the top 6%. I am not sure if he wants to go but just having it in our back pocket is huge.

Which is why he will endorse Paxton. Sort of like he made Romney kiss the ring for SOS and then axed him. It was thrilling for him.

Fitlump fucking won a Austin City Council seat, Now on to Congress 2026!
1. Post Trump-era. 2. Would be perceived as sexism and media trying to stay far from that. 3. The entire situation with her even beyond Shaggy is crazy, but that seems to be a trend/feature in a certain party right now.

For people like me who didn't know how she made it to shaggy in the first place:

Thanks. I also just read this written about her in 2014 https://www.dailydot.com/debug/mackenzie-kelly-austin-gamergate/ Based on that info she has always seemed to have/needs lots of online attention from different places. I guess shaggy/surly was just another supply for her. I also didn't realize she had run before.

Can someone give me a complete cliff's notes/timeline if you can about this person and her involvement with surly (was she on shaggy too?), Lance, and how this city council thing came to be? I know general info but I don't have the context I would like. I ask because she is becoming a damn hero in Wilco where I live.

Who's been covid vaxxed? Stand up and be counted.
Got 2nd Moderna on Wednesday. 12 hours later was up in the middle of the night with racing heartbeat, chills, fever and nausea and insomnia. Got up to get a drink and almost fainted in the kitchen. Today has been the suck too. Feel like I have the flu but no coughing. Hopefully you won't need it, but plan for 36-48 hours of feeling hellish. Glad I didn't get Covid.

Meg and Harry interviewed by Oprah on CBS
The BRF is messed up, but we all knew that. Also, Meghan is textbook narcissistic personality disorder. "Narcissistic personality disorder — one of several types of personality disorders — is a mental condition in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for excessive attention and admiration, troubled relationships, and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of extreme confidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism. A narcissistic personality disorder causes problems in many areas of life, such as relationships, work, school or financial affairs. People with narcissistic personality disorder may be generally unhappy and disappointed when they're not given the special favors or admiration they believe they deserve. They may find their relationships unfulfilling, and others may not enjoy being around them." https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20366662

I drove to Midland from Wilco to get mine this week. It's my hometown so I don't feel bad. They really are giving them to everyone.

Checking in. Fully unwrapped and flowing this morning. I think it is safe to say we escaped unscathed in this house. 2017 Drees build FWIW.

Team No Drip and Wrapped here. What do I do now? Unwrap and wait? Do I need to apply any heat? I have 2 bibs - one north facing and one south. Interior plumbing has held up so far.

2020-21 Winter weather; bring it on
I want to cry every time I read this thread. I am just so sorry for everyone in these stories. So, so sorry. So far my house has held up - water, electric, heat. I don't know why. I am in Georgetown. I only lost power a few times that first day. I have 3 teen boys and an 11 yo here and I still have plenty of food for them. I feel like I won the lottery but still stressed.
