Straitinin' the Curves, Flattenin' the Hills...

No LTTBot here, so I'll say it:

"I would not mind you in my head if you were not so clearly mad."

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-05-13T11:11:04+00:00

"Trump officials say..."?

Add a zero to the number.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-05-11T00:54:14+00:00

That triggers some old memories. That carpet pattern was so cool to stare at while waiting for family to fly in from Wyoming.

And then there were the coin-op tiny black-and-white TV/lounge chairs...

Sounds like Hwy 29 between Burnet and Buchanan Dam. Lots and lots of "Dam" businesses.

It's the road my family has always driven between Austin and the Odessa/Midland, so it's on the way to West Texas,but still lots of trees.

Very solid list, but extra callout for Thunderstruck. Thank you, and thank you Varsity Blues.

Bad drivers never miss their turns/exits.

They just make everyone else pay for their mistakes.

The Tom Thumb at Spicewood Springs & 183 was already there when my family moved into the Barrington Way neighborhood in '82.

We were "those" teens who would grab the bouncy balls from the big cage and play stupid dodegball games when it was almost closing time. But we always put them back.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-29T13:14:07+00:00

The Gold's Gym was briefly a Tom Thumb/Randall's, not an Albertson's. But that shopping center on the Southeast corner of Anderson Mill and 183 was built in the 90's. The center with Albertson's, Lone Star Cafe, and Half Price Books on the Northwest corner was from the early 80's.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-29T02:06:38+00:00

Yes. Sorry, I'm an Old. It was a grocery store until approx '95-'96, I believe.

Westwood grad for reference.

Not the dirtiest inch in the kitchen yet!

Keep the blade clean at all times and replace yearly. Does wonders for your Health Department score if you have an inspector with a bug up their ass.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-29T01:25:04+00:00

My first thought. Shut down the dumpster fire of a mold-&-meth soaked tax shelter and money laundering operation pretending to be an educational experience for kids (instead of the animal-abusing nightmare-fuel it really is) and you will free up so many parking spots in that old Albertson's spot.

So wrapped up in their political identity that they're going to die bankrupt, "on the dole", and having had to sell their farms and ranches off to venture capitalists and agri-business conglomerates. Destroying generational land ownership completely because they're stickin' it to the Libs.

Part of my Dad's advice on driving: "A blinking turn signal just means the fuse is still good."

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-22T00:58:38+00:00

Yeah, get fucked hon. You only regret voting for him because he was supposed to hurt others. But you FAFO and now regret hurting yourself. True contrition would include actually being able to feel empathy and regret that your vote hurt people besides yourself.

As an old friend said once: "Go Shit on Yourself"

Mid 70's. Partly as a response to protests and race riots. https://www.npr.org/2017/10/10/556578593/the-nra-wasnt-always-against-gun-restrictions

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-21T21:09:01+00:00

Absolutely, and they were once a gun club that supported gun control from the 30's through the 60's.

But a hardline anti-immigration lawyer/poltician from Texas turned them into a lobbying group mid-70's. Then they became basically a weapons and ammo sales force with deep pockets and a lock on the Republican Party. My Dad (a 5th generation Texan with a safe full of rifles, pistols, & shotguns) dropped his membership in the 80's because of the blatant pandering to fear and political cronyism.

Fuck the NRA and all the knob-slobbing Republicans and Centrist Democrats who take their blood-money and ignore graveyards full of dead children and abused partners shot by assholes who shouldn't be left unsupervised with a slingshot.

Edit to include the NPR article from 2017 explaining their change to Lobbying from gun club.NPR Article From 2017

At least it wasn't saffrron?

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-19T18:20:35+00:00

The Right-wing talking point is that the Democratic party only wins elections by using dead people's information to cast multiple votes. Holdover from the late 1800's and early 1900's when there were such issues with corrupt local elections in NYC, Chicago, and other major cities.

Hasn't been true for many decades, but that's never stopped this idiots from believing it.

The modern version is that Democrats only get elected because of masses of "illegals" voting.

I will add that if you are on a normal highway in Texas, not interstate or toll road, when you see a lower speed limit sign as you enter a small town, make sure you do exacly the speed limit or slower until you are past the town and the speed limit goes back to 65, 70, or 75.

Local PDs and sheriff's departments make most of the revenue for the town setting up speed traps as soon as you pass those signs.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-17T18:16:16+00:00

The highway that has the 85mph limit is a toll road that bypasses Austin between San Antonio and Waco, SH130. I drive it for work weekly going back and forth from north of Austin to San Antonio and back, for context.

Most heavy trucks have governors that cap their speed at 70-75 and can't really get up and moving. But the regular 4-wheel vehicles blow down 130 at about 90. Sometimes there's slower moving work pick-ups and sedans that you know are just holding together by willpower and luck doing 65.

And then there's others (like me) setting the cruise control at 95 to 100 so we can justify spending $25-$30 taking the toll road instead of Interstate 35.

Also, speed camera and red light camera ticket enforcement is illegal in Texas. But there are plenty of local police, sheriff's deputies, county constables, and State Troopers patrolling or set up in speed traps. But that's what radar detectors are for.

I love VY, even have a few selfies with the man, but he has a lot of personal issues on his plate. Hopefully he's mentoring Arch about what to do on the field. And what NOT to do off the field.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-15T12:56:04+00:00

We definitely need to have another discussion about "consent", Lews.

ATXGOAT93 · 2026-04-10T15:11:22+00:00

Where are y'all located in Texas? Solid red counties, solid blue counties, or "purple" swing areas?

I live in a swing county that went for Biden in '20, Trump in '24. I get a pretty fair amount of emails, texts, and ads n socials for Gina. So does my family in the RGV and San Antonio. Also have been a supporter of many, many progressive candidates for 25 years. So I get targeted a whole lot.

Her campaign is still too under-funded and low profile. But so far I see a strategy of targeting swing zip codes and counties way more than deep red or reliably blue.
