@austinmobility No, no more bonds until we know where the money from the last few really went. Why does the Austin Government think the residents pockets are bottomless. Spending per Resident, that is not free money that is from our Property and other local taxes.

BREAKING: Elizabeth Warren, with Reps. Jayapal and Boyle, just dropped the ULTRA-MILLIONAIRE TAX ACT. The bill creates a 2% wealth tax on $50 million households, and an additional 1% wealth tax on billionaires. It raises $6.2 TRILLION from just 260,000 households. Obvious W.

@4TaxFairness I thought you were the Americans for tax fairness group, It just goes to show you that no matter what you name yourself it doesn't necessarily apply.

@OurKingYeshua @55SweetThing They can't get a permit to do that in a private store they should be asked to lift leave and if they don't they should be trespassed and dragged out by the cops

@55SweetThing did they get a permit to protest? his has become a real problem. This is not how our constitution defines free speech, nor the laws concerning "peaceful" protests. It has just become a disgusting display for attention seekers.

A burrito bowl and shitty service at chipotle is now $20. Meanwhile, you can get an 11 oz sirloin, 2 sides, and rolls at Texas Roadhouse for $17. What’s going on here?

@2RawTooReal And where did they get their information from? Are they talking about genderless bathrooms where it's basically either sex but one at a time or is it like the picture.

@EvilFuGuru What? nope. If you are using RE1 etc. as an example you are even more wrong. The pre-rendered backgrounds throw your theory out of the window, before even the dogs jumped in. see: Alone in the Dark from 4 years earlier.

It's funny when mortgage rates go up .50%, everyone says we're doomed. But when rates fall .50%, everyone says it's actually not a huge difference in payment.

Philly DA Larry Krasner threatens ICE agents working at the airport with arrest: "The president cannot pardon you. I will put you in handcuffs. And if necessary, I will put you in a jail cell." Krasner was promising to hunt down ICE agents like Nazis a couple of months ago.

@Geniustechw Nope because we're secure in who we are and who we were. If it's a sports team it's pretty cool having one with that name and graphic. Your rage bait isn't going to work on everybody thank God.

We cannot normalize ICE inserting itself into our daily lives. Here is a reminder: ICE agents do not belong at airports. ICE agents do not belong at polling stations. ICE agents do not belong undermining our rights and hurting our communities.

This has happened before. There’s a reason the EV transition feels familiar. Because we’ve seen this exact story play out before. 📸 Photography Back in the day, Kodak dominated the entire industry. They didn’t just lead it, they owned it. And here’s the crazy part… They actually invented the first digital camera in 1975. They saw the future coming. They had the patents. They had the technology. They had the head start. And what did they do? They hesitated. They believed digital wouldn’t replace film. They protected their existing business. They underestimated how quickly things would change. We all know how that ended. Film didn’t slowly decline. It collapsed. Now look at the car industry For years, the narrative has been: “EVs won’t take over.” “The infrastructure isn’t ready.” “They’re not practical.” “They’ll never replace petrol and diesel.” Sound familiar? Because it’s the exact same arguments used against digital photography. But here’s what matters This isn’t about opinions. It’s about behaviour. 👉 Over 90% of EV drivers stick with electric once they switch. 👉 Satisfaction rates are among the highest in the automotive world. 👉 Running costs are lower. 👉 Ownership is simpler for most. The shift isn’t being forced. It’s being chosen. Kodak didn’t fail because the technology didn’t exist. They failed because they didn’t believe it would win. The same mistake is being made again right now. It isn’t a question of if… It’s a question of when. And just like film cameras… One day people will look back and wonder why there was ever a debate at all.

@PolitiBunny Why do we have to do more than men? Also, I read you can’t use a marriage license as identification and they want a passport $165.

For shits and giggles, I decided to see just how hard it would be to replace my birth certificate, Social Security card, AND my marriage license, since Democrats think women are too stupid to figure it out. Here's how it went: 1. Birth certificate: Contacted the health department of the county where I was born. They OVERNIGHTED a certified copy to me the next day - total cost, $14. 2. SS Card: Contacted Social Security on their site. They asked if I was sure I needed the card, since I 'won't likely be asked for it.' I went ahead and got it - took five business days to arrive - total cost, $0. 3. Marriage License: Went to the 'vital docs' site of the county where we were hitched. Filled everything out online, arrived in three days - total cost, $5. It cost less than $20 to obtain all three certified/legal documents, and it took less than five business days to receive them. Note: if I had lived where I was born or married, it would have been a day. Tops. Anyone telling you this is too hard or unfair is lying and hiding the real reason they want to stop Voter ID. I know you guys knew that already... lol
