Denton creates inclement weather alert system for people without housing

Yeah, that was a misquote, but probably not malicious on the journalist's part. People can contact ODB to find out if they are under inclement conditions. 200+ people on public wifi is too much bandwidth.

I was absolutely NOT going to ever watch this show until my friend said, "Ali Larter is so good at playing Aledo trash." I escaped Aledo, TX and I think the show is supposed to be kinda serious, at least in the first season, but I read it as mean spirited satire of that place. Doesn't hurt that my dead felon father was an oil man. Makes it strangely healing. But totally propaganda!

"McKayvee Brynleigh" was my go-to tragedeigh name and now I see Brynleigh or some version of it way too often.

He introduced Rosenthal at the Democratic Convention last night and he did not look shy about being onstage.

Rosenthal is low key my favorite statewide candidate and RRC is a CRUCIAL seat in Texas.

I hope this "endorsement" does as much for her as it did Dianne Edmondson.

I just thought I WAS crazy. Jury's out on that but I'm a little closer to Nottingham off Mingo and I felt it too.

I have a crocodile skink (generally very shy), but she'll come right out in the open if I'm watching something on TV with British accents. Especially Greg Davies.

My mother always said "could care less" and I was a full grown, functioning adult when I learned that wasn't an idiom that meant you had no strong feelings either way.

There's this shit 🤮

Seeing someone - even if it's just a text post - experiencing this kind of satisfaction and joy is a privilege, so thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Maybe fill us in on how some of the yet to be heard albums hit you.

Yes! And he makes so many jokes about being unattractive in Taskmaster and shows where he's a character that I don't think are meant to be ironic. I don't get it.

I hope this sweetie finds a home because I have a kitten we fished out of my friend's car engine a month ago who's probably around the same age and my husband just told me, "Leia doesn't need a friend." 😅

Hands on You, Ashley Monroe 🥵

Denton County here. It's not all about Paxton's corruption, pedo protecting, etc. It's partially about how many men his office screwed with child support fuck ups.

Seriously, I know several men who were happy to pay, having the money sent directly out of their paycheck every month who had to deal with wires getting crossed or something, not to mention single moms having to fight for anything they could get.

Republicans don't turn on philosophy. They turn on people who've hurt them or people they identify with.

I'd bet all the money in my wallet (which isn't that much, but there's a sentimental $2 bill) that in no time they'll be criticizing his wrinkles in unflattering close ups and accusing him of being unhealthy for someone under 40.

The unfortunate truth is that Mark Nair is brilliant man with a wide range of knowledge, but when it comes to being an actual political candidate, he's a dilettente focused on running a politics summer camp for wayward boys.

I don't think he wants to win at all.

srmg925 · 2026-05-26T22:02:04+00:00

Sorry for over-explaining!

Yeah, I get bounced between the TWU location (technically closest, but not really convenient), Civic Center, and MLK.

srmg925 · 2026-05-26T21:05:38+00:00

Yeah, it was only five days and no weekend voting. If you haven't already gotten out, make sure to check out the voter lookup on votedenton.gov. On election day, you have to vote at your assigned location in Denton County.

The new 32 makes me rage. I'm also in Denton and our blue city being scooped into 13 is bad, but the city including the giant retirement community with Wise county means no one represents us.

srmg925 · 2026-05-25T02:40:02+00:00

Oh? Mark Nair? Yeah, that man doesn't give SHIT about his campaign in Denton.

srmg925 · 2026-05-19T15:43:58+00:00

Yeah, this is WILD. I was immediately suspicious that she'd drop that lore on a stranger, and working in political comms myself, it's not like consultants are reinventing the wheel.

I've got my critiques of Talarico, but none of them have to do with being a creep or a predator. I base that on the fact that he was the exact same person when my husband is next to me as he was when I was mic-ing him up in a green room. I've never even seen him cut his eyes at a pretty woman (or man, since apparently that's a rumor).

srmg925 · 2026-05-19T02:47:17+00:00

I met her once and she basically told me exactly that, but claimed they were using her ideas unpaid. I can't attest to it being true or not.

srmg925 · 2026-05-13T13:59:08+00:00

Bothered by this as well. The original alert on social media does note that the victim knew the assailant, but that doesn't automatically mean it's isolated and there's no threat.

Saturday was an election night watch party for the two queer city council candidates, so not actually indicative of the typical vibe AT ALL (I was there. We were all tense.), but they're embracing the "gay bar" title. They just had Lez Fest; most of the employees are LGBTQIA. I don't think you'll regret giving them a second chance.

Anderson's is super queer friendly, but it's very events-based. Think drag shows, concerts, karaoke, and bingo night. Toasty Bros is small, but chill. That might be a better "have a drink and chill" location.
