Cornin and Paxton are laughing their butts off.

If he's related to Tommy Tallarico, I don't want him to win. Tommy is a pathological liar, scammer, and worst of all, he created the Roblox oof sound.

Crockett is running against Talarico in the primary? WTF? Another Democratic circular firing squad? We need both of them.

It'd be great, sure, but let's be realistic. There's no way in hell she, or really any democrat, is going to win a Senate seat in Texas. At least not yet. Hemorrhoid in human form, Ted Cruz, managed to beat Allred by something like 8 points, just last year. Everyone hates Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz hates Ted Cruz, and he still won. Cornyn doesn't carry the Ted Cruz albatross of being Ted Cruz around his neck, which is a significant advantage for him. Of course, this assumes that he doesn't lose out to Paxton in the primaries. And I mean, I get it. Her seat is pretty much gone now thanks to gerrymandering... I guess I'm just trying to tether my expectations to reality.

So, I don't hold out much hope for Crockett V. Cornyn.

Think about Crockett v Paxton though. That's gonna be a tough GOP primary and Paxton just may oust Cornyn.

I forgot Bernie Sanders. He is older but still going strong, and his head is screwed on straight. But then, that's Vermont for you. :-)

It has been middle of the night fun, as always, hanging out with all you pretty people.

Got up to pee, I had to spend half an hour with Jax because I woke him up, and then some time with Gryffn. Serendipity needed some hello, because you can’t just walk past a cat and ignore them. Took some ibuprofen, ate a couple tangerines to wash them down, back in bed with the lights off, starting to yawn, hoping to catch the next train bound for dreamland.

Stay chill, watch out for flying banhammers.

Okay, this is an unusual pairing. I haven't listened to it yet, so it might be completely boring, but if I were picking two actors to interview one another, I'd never think of these two.

Got my Covid and Flu Vax on my birthday. As I watch everyone around me get sick, it was the best gift I could have given myself.

And it being TEXAS - I paid $130 -160 JUST for Covid. Oh and I had to "qualify" with an issue. These fucks are making it almost impossible for even well meaning people to take care of themselves

Seems there used to be a federal agency we could rely on for trustworthy recommendations on vaccines. I wonder what happened to it.

That agency still exists but we just need do the opposite of its recommendations.

probably the same thing that happened to the reliable agency that we used to be able to trust to tell us how the job market was going or the economy and that.

weeelllll I went to Vat'kin city and I walked around St. Pete's

And I walked right into a donut shop to get myself a treat

Some guy in a funny hat and dress came floatin' in

And told me that my cruller was a pathway unto sin

Then I asked him how on Earth it came to pass that he could tell

That eatin' this one pastry would lead me straight to Hell

He answered "Child, the Lord is known to have mysterious ways

And he'd much prefer you had yourself a creme-filled chocolate glazed."
