Also: GEE-nah Hee-nah-HO-sa. You’re from New York City, where people have Latino/a name. So no excuse for that pronunciation whatsoever.

City of Austin demolished it and are building a new one on the site. Like the old one, the new one will provide all genders and companion care restrooms.

I fully expect a republican AG to sue the City of Austin over that. So we are working hard to flip the AG

It’s Austin, so we provide all genders restrooms at our airport.

I hate that this is a legitimate concern for so many Americans.

@mollyjongfast.bsky.social @jessecannon.bsky.social ANN RICHARDSON??Please, for the love of Molly Ivins, say her name correctly;
Gov, Ann Richards.

BTW, she lost to W in 1994. The last Democrat to win office in Texas was Lt. Gov. Bob Bullock that year.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@harryshearer.bsky.social While it’s not *The* Austin Desk, I appreciate you playing Marcia Ball today from *my* Austin Desk. Thank you!

The workers whose health care is most at stake in the government shutdown About 10 million small-business owners, employees and the self-employed are caught in the middle of the shutdown fight over the Affordable Care Act.

This is a for my fellow small business owners and self-employed people.

UPDATE: Hedge fund billionaire pressed Treasury Secretary for Argentina bailout, Argentine media reports Rob Citrone, whose hedge fund bet big on Argentina, reportedly asked his friend for a rescue package. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent delivered.

If the US government can afford to bail out hedge fund billionaires that bet (& lost big) on Argentina’s economy, they can afford to restore health insurance subsidies to middle class Americans.

Because you’re at Montana v Idaho?

What did the rest of us do to deserve the New York Democratic Party as our only remaining bulwark against autocracy?

@colinallredtx.bsky.social - please run for Governor and back Rep. Talerico for Senate.

Maybe it’s because I lived in Texas when I was young, but corn tortillas, cheese, and knowing how to cook dried beans from scratch saved my life more often than I can remember.

I can’t say enough about how weirdly dated Tesla cars look to me. And I drive an ‘06 Tacoma.

RIP Crocus Behemoth.

Are you up to date on who they allow in that room now?

Since we are going to have to talk about it more often, let’s be clear: it’s “martial law,” not “Marshall law.”

It’s a Wednesday repeat on both, unfortunately. Do we need to hold a fundraiser to get some kind of new hardware for y’all?

A nightmare.

Y’all picked up lots of new MAGA subscribers these days?

Didn’t think so.

Hard to believe that guy was able to buy the entire federal government for $270 million dollars.

I would’ve preferred another year of Adonai Mitchell. But sure.

Other states are not shaped in as graphically-pleasing manner as Texas. Sorry.

There are approximately 400 billion reasons.

How dare you.

Canadian Bacon is Michael Moore’s Magnificent Ambersons.

Talk about absurd. You're posting about tariffs while an unelected billionaire has taken over the Federal payments system.

This is a coup. Stop F-ing around and DO SOMETHING. Or step down and allow someone who understands what's happening DO SOMETHING.

Hey Senator - Did you notice that unelected co-President Elon Musk and his team of hackers now have control of the Federal payment system at Treasury?

This is an emergency and avocado prices are the LEAST of our worries. Shut down the Senate!

Stop campaigning like it's 1996 and WAKE TF UP ALREADY!
