  • My partner and I fit in this range. We don’t have kids, but there is the offhand occasion where we need to print something so we just do it at work.

    And if worst comes to worst, we have a shitty old cheap Canon that works if you turn off all the lights, light certain candles, and draw a printer-gram on the floor while we hold hands in the center of the room while saying a quiet prayer under our breath.

    Edit: fixed the pun but too late now.

  • One of the priests at the Catholic school/church I went to was a family friend.

    Years later it came out that he had been abusing an altar boy who was just 1 grade behind me. I’d see this kid all the time.

    When my mom told me he had been arrested and why, she said “But don’t tell anyone” - because he was “a friend”.

    I said bullshit - I’m telling everybody I see.

    He’s in prison forever now but that poor kid…and that’s just the one I know about.

  • A couple weeks ago here in TX we voted on 17 state constitutional amendments. I want to say 12-13 of those were some form of tax cut for the wealthy. I voted against all of them but they all passed. And they passed big, like 60-70% to 40-30%.

    The wording they used to describe the amendments was very much skewed to make them sound wonderful. No negatives, only positives. For instance, something like this may have had the wording “more money for schools”.

    On its face it seems like a good idea - fewer taxes for me, more money for schools - what could go wrong? I assume most folks just looked at it said “ok” without much additional thought.

    It’s very frustrating to basically have the large majority of voters approve this, giving the state government reassurance that they can do whatever they want, when it’s an obvious lie.

    Nothing they do is to help the “regular” people of Texas. It’s all tax breaks for businesses and the super wealthy and Christian Nationalism disguised as “parental choice”.

    It’s absolutely disgusting.

  • Abbott hates Houston…he loves that this is happening. No coercion needed, trust me. He’s just as evil as Trump, Miller, etc.

    Every election he tried to put in new measures to make it more difficult to vote in the more populated counties because he knows it’s only a matter of time before the folks in the cities boot him and his asshole friends.
