Here is the sign up to volunteer proofread my notes for January-March. Proofreaders make my notes, and my life, better. Heroes! They are usually ready for proofing on Wednesdays by 5pm (sometimes Thursday if it's a long meeting or if life is life-ing) forms.gle/Kr2WRHnDRWg1Q4…

State that still observes Confederate Heroes Day:
Greg Abbott@GregAbbott_TX

The state of Texas will not observe the Cesar Chavez Day holiday. I am directing all Texas state agency heads to comply. In the upcoming legislative session, I will work with Texas lawmakers to remove Cesar Chavez Day from state law altogether. Reports of the horrific and widely acknowledged sexual assault allegations against Cesar Chavez rightfully dismantle the myth of this progressive hero and undermine the narrative that elevated Chavez as a figure worthy of official state celebration.

slut shaming is a loser move and a tool of the patriarchy. wish I heard more people talking about ~teachable moments~ in situations like these.

I wish we could teach our kids to act right around people dressed like sluts instead of this weak "family-friendly" dress code at the rodeo. Is not the beach a family environment? Is not the pool a family environment? Skin is normal, other people showing some is their choice.

“We’ve been very smart in Houston,” Whitmire said on Hello Houston. “I would like to think part of it is the tone that I set. I did not politicize the immigration or even the ICE involvement." houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/news/…

@emilytakesnotes Idk if acquire is the right word, idk the full process but afaik they still have to buy it at fair market price. Like yeah they take the property but you’re supposed to be paid for it

chat how do we feel about this definition? "Eminent domain allows a government to compulsorily acquire private property for public use."

@BayouBikeyBoi @gratifihouston could be true but here's a direct quote!! "I think the trash and the dumping is not only a quality of life issue, but there's also some environmental concerns that we really need to address.”

happy to see CM Flickinger advocate for reducing microplastics entering the ecosystem today, because of trash, illegal dumping, etc let's remember this when it comes to astroturf!!
