“The family of a Southeast Texas firefighter killed in a July 4 blaze has sued to void his marriage to his transgender widow and prevent her from getting his death benefits because she was born a man and Texas doesn’t recognize same-sex marriages.”

Texas mom challenges transgender widow’s marriage

This makes me want to vomit.  Seriously.

Fucking idiots. This is horrible on so many levels.

For fuck’s sake, this is horrid.

What the fuck is wrong with people?!

This family needs to get all their reproductive organs removed, because they shouldn’t be spreading that kind of message to other people.

Texas, I hate you.  If only Austin weren’t awesome.

“Rick Perry (R, Gov of TX) announced six days ago his plan to cut the drop out rate.
Texans 18 years and under should not get drivers licenses without certifying school attendance or enrollment in home school, private school or GED courses. Apparently Perry didn’t know—or doesn’t care—that this has been Texas law since 1989, and he has been responsible for enforcing it since 2001.”

Photo: hotelechozulu: immlass: hotelechozulu: fuckyeahtx: sweetlittlelife: houstonunfiltered: The Houston metropolitan area is also noteworthy as being the largest in the United States without formal zoning restrictions on where and how people can build. This freedom has led to a highly diverse pattern of land use at the neighborhood scale; nevertheless, more general spatial patterns of land use can be recognized in remotely sensed data. These general patterns are particularly evident in nighttime photography of the urban area taken by astronauts on board the International Space Station. The image depicts the roughly 100-kilometer (60-mile) east-west extent of the Houston metropolitan area. Houston proper is at image center, indicated by a “bull’s-eye” of elliptical white- to orange-lighted beltways and brightly lit white freeways radiating outwards from the central downtown area. Suburban and primarily residential urban areas are indicated by both reddish-brown and gray-green lighted regions, which indicate a higher proportion of tree cover and lower light density. that’s a very generous way of describing unregulated sprawl.

Photo: immlass: hotelechozulu: It’s almost like Venice I know it’s because I grew up in a swamp, but my reaction to this is “This is strange and interesting how?” It’s like every apartment complex that floods in the rain that I ever lived in in Houston, which is to say, all of them. Why is it that Texans can’t do drainage?  I guess y’all just don’t have any rain most of the time…

“Houston became the largest city in the United States to elect an openly gay mayor on Saturday night, as voters gave a solid victory to the city controller, Annise Parker… “Tonight the voters of Houston have opened the door to history,” she said, standing by her partner of 19 years, Kathy Hubbard, and their three adopted children. “I acknowledge that. I embrace that. I know what this win means to many of us who never thought we could achieve high office.”

I guess I’ll be needing to revise my opinion of Houston upward.
