The attorney general renewed his attempt to block the Syrian refugees from being resettled in Texas, saying the state had some new info or some bullshit about how dangerous they are. A federal judge rejected the lawsuit. quote:AUSTIN, Texas – A federal judge knocked Texas for offering "largely speculative hearsay" about extremists possibly infiltrating Syrian refugees seeking to resettle in the state, rejecting another attempt by Republican leaders to keep out families fleeing the war-torn country.

If you're interested, this crazy right-wing broadcast is doing a live stream with people who are at the mock mass shooting by UT. The level of paranoia with these people is insane - "I'm seeing a lot of people sitting around and texting. They might be monitoring us. I'm going to try to approach them cautiously". That sorta thing. On the positive side, a mass farting counter-protest scheduled for the same time has more confirmed attendees than the original event. EDIT: and of course, there's lots of false-flag, Sandy Hook trutherism poo poo, too. discoukulele fucked around with this message at 18:34 on Dec 12, 2015 |

Bushiz posted:He says, speaking of the city that poisoned the world with torchy's You're not looking at the big picture. Torchy's dramatically reduces the number of hipsters at all other taco places. So if it makes you angry to have fried chicken in a taco, just keep driving past to your now less crowded "authentic" spot and enjoy taco cabana like you usually do.

At least Torchys has their full menu all day everyday and stays open fairly late. Breakfast tacos shouldn't be relegated to the AM and taco places should close at goddamn 3pm like tacodeli tries to pass off as acceptable.

As someone who has lived in Austin most of my life, I feel a deep shame whenever I see torchys and their awful white people tacos. That being said, gently caress the johnson/universal/san antonio triumvirate, save amaya's tacos on I-10, god bless nickel bean & cheese

So much hate against white peoples. This is some sort of bizarre reverse-racism! Ken's Subs and Tacos has really good tacos btw. And the clientele is sufficiently non-white.

I actually think Torchy's is pretty good, though I also like Chipotle and people seem adamant at declaring that "not real Mexican food" for some reason (though granted, using lemons instead of lime is pretty bad).

Speaking of Austin tacos, the new-ish food truck called Phred's BBQ at the Bouldin Creek Food Court, on S 1st near the School for the Deaf, is loving amazing. I just had the rib taco, which comes with some kind of mango chutney and then I had the chicken, which comes with honey apples and banana yogurt, which sounded weird but was fantastic. Go check this place out. The owner is a cool old dude.

It's ok to like Torchy's as long as you don't pretend that it's Mexican food. Anyway, has Houston elected its first Republican mayor yet? edit http://www.khou.com/elections/ Sir Tonk fucked around with this message at 01:10 on Dec 13, 2015 |

Was worried for a minute there, thank goodness King didn't pull it off. Some interesting data came out of the election, if anyone is curious. Kuffner is compiling it on his site. http://offthekuff.com/wp/?p=71412 And.
