Oh I am well aware, and I have major doubts even a majority of people would want to stay, which would be a huge disaster of a refugee situation. It ain’t happening, though. Imagine wanting to fight the US military on American soil.

If I get drafted into Hot Wheels' army, it gives me a chance to shoot fascists. Granted, it won't be from very far away.

I remember overhearing a conversation about a secession back during the Obama administration, where one person was claiming that the US wouldn't even be able to invade. "Think of all the major military bases! We come with our own military right out of the gate! The US would be forced to negotiate!" I had to bite my tongue fairly hard to not jump in.

there are many very dumb things to ponder about the concept of Texas secession, but i think an underrated one is the assumption that "Texas" would even continue to exist as a coherent political entity with borders that have any resemblance to today's borders. I can only assume that the city-states of Austin, San Antonio, and Houston would very much like out of whatever thing is called "Texas" at that point e: Proud Christian Mom posted:The few honest texiters I've met actually think they're getting all that in the divorce

Taking into account how much intelligence stuff happens in San Antonio, any attempt to take it over would likely be swiftly met with violence.

Texas doesn't really have any ability to stop drone strikes and that's all it'd take to wipe out the Y'all Qaeda cells to nip this in the bud before it even started.

My Jewish Friend says that now she has protesters showing up outside her temple in Austin protesting Israel. While it's for entirely the wrong reasons (trying to usher in armageddon), I am very glad that the way the Nick Fuentes thing broke out was performative pro-semitism on the part of the state GOP rather than ignoring it or dismissing it, as has been the case with the party in the past.

Those ones are all in a walled-off complex with a security guard, which I thought was a little much when I worked there for a year, but have since come to appreciate for obvious reasons. Beth Israel on Shoal Creek is the one that had their door burned by that kid.

oh wow https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-care/you-thought-it-was-urgent-care-center-until-you-got-n750906 quote:When Ginger Pine’s daughter started coughing and running a fever one night last December, she tried to take her to their usual after-hours doctor’s office, but there was a line out the door. quote:NBC News found that at least 35 states currently have some type of freestanding emergency room. In the majority of those states, they function as off-campus ERs affiliated with an existing hospital, but in over a dozen others, freestanding emergency rooms may be owned by independent providers. Regulations and licensure policy vary state by state. quote:Dr. Carrie de Moor runs her own small chain of freestanding emergency rooms in the Dallas area. She says the cost disparity is warranted.  I would trust her, she's got a stethoscope!

That's funny, if she won she'd be the second sitting member who is also a doctor who owns a chain of free standing emergency clinics.
