Sensible Gun Control is overdue, once again
One of these “misfires” happened nearby too, the cheerleaders who accidentally got into the wrong car tragedy. What makes it even worse, the ammosexual got out of his vehicle to shoot the young lady. That’s not defensive, that’s murder as … Continue reading
They also forgot “schools” sadly
I love this bumper sticker because it ties in with a recent news story I heard on NPR (which it NOT STATE MEDIA) about a state legislator in Nebraska fighting for LGBTQ+ rights via a filibuster. She made a huge … Continue reading
Gov. Abbott plans to “correct” Austin outcome again
Once again, the party of small gubmint which is a dog whistle for the Neo-Confederacy, plans to pardon convicted murderer Perry. Abbott’s colostomy bag must be backed up as it’s filling up his brain with more than the usual amount of … Continue reading
Austin dishes out justice where Wisconsin failed
A jury convicted shit bird Daniel Perry of murdering BLM protestor Garrett Foster. Not that Perry’s claims of “self-defense” holds up when Foster was shot five times. I can see once but any more is excessive and probably done in … Continue reading
Yesterday was a Bizarro Bizarro dream come true
Can’t believe my personal wishes went two for two. Honestly, I figured Chicagoans would panic and vote for the “law and order” douchebag after what a horrible mayor Lightfoot was. Wisconsin wasn’t a complete surprise since enough residents are finally … Continue reading
Sadly, this isn’t too far from the truth in Texas
Austin’s more left-leaning, weekly publication, the Austin Chronicle posted their annual April Fool’s joke a day early. But much like The Onion, given how bat-shit crazy, cynical and stupid the Texas Republican-dominated gubmint is, this isn’t too far off on how they’d … Continue reading
RIP Mark Russell
Love him or hate him, The Simpsons sure did (not really, may writers went to Ivy League Schools so they’re even more in on his jokes), Mark Russell was an acquired taste even for diehard PBS viewers. Some members of Gen … Continue reading

What could possibly go wrong with DPS covering Austin?
For those of you not familiar with Texas’ weird naming conventions, DPS is Department of Public Safety and what they call the State Troopers. It’s a rather weird choice. Sounds like something from the French Revolution under the Jacobins but … Continue reading
How I wish Americans were just at least 1% more French!
Even in the US, it’s pretty hard to avoid the stories regarding the daily strikes and riots in the land of a thousand cheeses! Their worthless president, a younger version of Grampa’ Brunch, Obummer and Slick Willie, all rolled into … Continue reading
Finally vindicated on how treasonous the GOP is
I’m not bringing up their rather obvious involvement in trying to overthrow America’s legitimately elected government (they did succeed in 2000) but the illegal lengths they went to in 1980 to install a shitty B-movie actor. Ever since I read … Continue reading
Why Austin can’t have nice things, March ’23
From the GOP, you know, the party of less government interference…unless you have a uterus. As expected, they’re going to destroy our light rail expansion since it will interfere with the lobbyists they take money from: car dealerships, Big Oil and … Continue reading
President Camacho to the rescue!
Given the two horrible, crappy choices next year…same as every year…red bag of shit or blue bag of shit, I will be voting for Camacho since he traveled back in time to run! Not a bad cameo at this year’s … Continue reading
How I wish I could participate
One of the assholes who has pushed Amerika in the wrong direction thanks to St. Reagan’s FCC allowing his right-wing hatred to be on the public airwaves as “entertainment.” Hitler and his lieutenants are proud. I need to ask my … Continue reading
Republicans demonstrating their lack of shame March 2023
I love the GOP’s chutzpah on how they want to make sure any areas where they won’t win are disenfranchised. This bullshit move is their latest since we know what they’re really thinking…college students won’t vote for us because educated non-Republicans … Continue reading
Musk wants to build a “company town,” not a Utopia
It’s been making the rounds all day in the news. Obviously Musk’s perfect place would never be anywhere close to Austin, even the NeoLiberal city government doesn’t legally back slavery. So he’s bought property around Bastrop, a somewhat distant ‘burb with … Continue reading
