2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]
I'm in the same boat. My wife and her brother tried to the bitter end, but it extends to most of her extended family (btw, they are in key states ohio, michigan, and georgia, so its a more painful fuck you to her and our family). The only difference between my situation and yours is that i'm willing to say fuck them out loud and cut them off from their brown grandchildren. we spent 4-6 weeks with them every summer up in northern michigan. enough is enough. they better fuckin pray that biden wins or i don't see this ever getting mended before they're too old to do shit with their grandkids or us, really.

Late start today, so didnt make it to Fitzhugh, but Meanwhile is SOLID. Bonus rep to them for brewing a great ESB, which is possibly my favorite style outside of a pale ale. Super family friendly for those of us saddled with a bunch of gross kids.

Beer 2020: Pint glasses or it didn’t happen.
Three breweries opened in austin this weekend: Meanwhile, Fitzhugh, and Willard. We were in the pville area for an errand so we hit willard. Beers tasted like old flying man leftovers. Patio is chill, but a missable beer program. Going to the other 2 tomorrow with high expectations for Meanwhile given their pedigree from Breakside.

2020 PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES: Joe Biden vs Donald Trump
Funny thing is, I am a speech therapist, and what Biden has overcome as a stutterer is nothing short of heroic. It may present as bumbling or "dumb" but his strategies to see through dyslfluecies is amazing. This is what I know as an expert, 18 years in the field: He had good coaching. Look for the side cough, a strategy to get the vocal chords active. And watch for the drop off of a word he gets "stuck" on, then defers to a different word, which typically isnt as strong of a statement, but a good deflection of the dysfluent episode. Those are big stuttering strategies (and tells). I felt like a film director watching Apocalypse Now and wishing I were as good.

AISD's (and other districts) Plans for Schools Starting August 18
My wife is a 4th grade teacher and she is online or on the phone with a parent ALL DAY until 4ish minus a 30 minute lunch. We have three kids, one in 3rd gd and two under 4, so it's been hectic trying to cover all bases, especially when I have to zoom. I can get about 15, maybe 20 mins of uninterrupted time to work in spurts throughout the day. No one wants to go back more than teachers, I promise you. But not at the expense of poisoning their families.

Expected, but Brewers Table dunzo. Too ambitious for it's time IMO, and needed a spot onsite for 'drinkers only'. Lager garden couldnt meet that.

i would be surprised it the brewer's table opened back up as well. i really liked their beer program, mostly interesting takes on lagers, and their meal service was up there with one of the best dine-in experiences in Austin. any yall need foeders?

Just want to remind you to buy your beer from the brewery itself and not from the grocery store, if possible. Don't buy brands outside of your municipality/state for the time being. If you have a favorite brewery and want them to be around next year, go support them. If you can, support the hill country breweries even more, as they get very few "just in the neighborhood" sales (this probably also includes Hi Sign and Live Oak too). This next wave of taproom shutdowns will probably stick a fork in at least a couple you wouldn't expect to go under.

Beer 2020: Pint glasses or it didn’t happen.
I mean thats a little over three dollars per pint for a startup brewery doing the highest quality version of a difficult style to impress with in Austin, but go on with $22/4packs of hazy IPAs i guess
