I did civil rights cases in the Fifth Circuit for years and every time there was good case law for Plaintiffs I would check and it was a law enforcement officer bringing the claim. Some people just get more justice than others in American law, especially in certain places.
Oh, so the suspect was a white guy then.

Running across a typo in a lawyer’s bio now has the opposite effect than it used to for me. Now I take it as a sign that they probably wrote it themselves, without AI.

Frankly I feel like ActBlue is an illegal criminal enterprise because why am I getting texts from campaigns in Kansas and New Jersey after I donate to a Texas candidate.

Now every voting location in Texas’ 8th most populous county is down, apparently due to a system-wide bug. Everyone is voting via provisional ballot now in Fort Bend County: www.click2houston.com/news/local/2...

For a year, I’ve been looking at buying a house in Houston. This morning I woke up to a power outage in my neighborhood even though it’s a beautiful day. I love this city but the complete lack of infrastructure is making me seriously re-think a longer term investment here.

One of my hobbies is asking people who are politically involved how they decide which candidate to vote for in downballot races in the primaries (judges, county officials, state house reps, etc). Today someone told me she uses Claude. So how do y’all figure out who to vote for?

I just found out there’s a new Yemeni-Mexican fusion bakery in Houston that opened this weekend and it’s going on the list! Yemex BakeHouse in the Energy Corridor. How anyone thinks I can leave Houston is beyond me.

Some disappointing results in our local judicial races in Houston last night where a genuinely horrible former judge won her primary and a genuinely amazing current judge lost his (different races). Most results were as expected though - on to the (much less exciting) runoffs!
