Hey, just because it sounds kinda dumb and no one actually uses it commonly doesn't mean there isn't established usage of it as a term.

Not that any of it matters, because meat probably won't stand, though beef probably will, and the only difference it will make is someone adding an apostrophe or something and calling it a day. Say hello to Beyond B'eef. Or Beyond Boeuf.

It's actually pretty common in vegan/vegetarian circles. But yeah, not broadly.

More adventures in not saying the actual name of a county



I'd be interested to know if there was any case law where something got struck down because the specific descriptors in the original bill text no longer matched the current descriptors.

And of course there are things that are animal flesh that aren't meat by some definitions, like fish.

Fish is meat and anyone who says otherwise is either deluding themselves or blatantly cheating a fast.

We're probably just going to muddle along for another 10 years or so on our weird limbo of de facto decrim in all the cities while the odd rural sheriff keeps locking up goddamn long hair hippies from Austin for a roach in their ashtray when they nab them in a speed trap. We will soon be surrounded on all four sides by states (and Mexico) that have various levels of legalization. Trying to maintain an anti-weed interdiction policy across three open state borders isn't possible.

Oh yeah, permanently entrenched House democrats retire all the time. Either EBJ has personally told her she isn't going to run, or EBJ is going to run for reelection strictly because Jane Hamilton had the presumption to declare before she announced her retirement.

Because it's a state action, I wonder what litigation Harris County could pursue, if any. Most likely they'd be a defendant in the case being sued by the NAACP or other community groups.

But you never know, maybe the new folks in the HCAO can figure out a clever way for the County to sue the state over the bill.
