    They already put “In God We Trust” in classrooms. 10 more years there will be nothing but scripture on the walls if we don’t get our shit together.

        I disagree, but only because giving into cynicism helps them win, and that’s not something I’m willing to do. I would rather be optimistically deluded and try than apathetically complicit and give up.

        And based on the voting numbers in Texas, “apathetic” sums up voter turnout for the most part. Vote, y’all.

          Im willing to bet money that if more people simply vote wont turn the trajectory of the state around. There is waaayyyy more conservitives that you think. Texas is destined to be a conservitive shithole. Rather try and get out than try and make a change cause this state aint worth it anyway.

            I understand, but I’m unfortunately financially tied for the next few years. Moved here as a Christian fundie planting a church, now left the religion and stuck here for a while.

            So I gotta make due with what I’ve got. When life gives you lemons, make lemonades.

    Bet, Dan. You know that bill in Louisiana is going to get thrown out, and that’s why the Speaker you hate so much won’t bring the Texas version to a vote.
