Nonsense posted:I know this is not germane, but I had been without health insurance for while until recently and found HEB pharmacy discount card a useful tool as it lowered the prescription bills a bit, are there other pharmacy places that offer a discount card like that? I didn't even know it existed until I decided to use their pharmacy. Walgreens and if you have one near, Sam's Club. Talk to pharmacies there about a discount card.

Austin, like the rest of the state, is inside of Texas. That makes it full on Texan, and just like the rest of the state, Austin is terrible in it own special and unique snowflake way. You can't be a part of this state with out getting your feet in the cow patties. Also the state legislature is pants on head, comic book levels of crazy and petty. Just because they hold dear their chances to gently caress with Austin doesn't mean you should be running around trying to tar us with the same brush. They pulled this same kind of poo poo over turning the municipal frackig ban in that one town on the Eagle Ford Shale. They'll get big government whenever it suits them, I'm sure they just consider sticking it to those commie liberals a fringe benefit for protecting the wealthy.

It's not GOTV generically but specifically treating like the river valley exists and that the people there have actually needs and problems and wants. The state level party is all sorts of hosed and withered on the vine though so I'd rather count on Republicans collapsing under their own success than the state level Democrats pulling their heads out their own asses.

Rock My Socks! posted:Can I ask a dumb voting question here? Check your registration status here. If your listed status says, 'Suspense' then you will need to confirm your address when you show up to the polls, but otherwise there are no other restrictions, as the other guys covered. To my memory, updating your address doesn't require any additional proof other than just telling them the new address. It has been a few years since I was a Voter Registrar and I'm phone posting so take that with a little grain of salt. In case anyone doesn't already know, go here to find the early voting locations in Harris County, https://m.harrisvotes.com/EarlyVoting?lang=en-US.

Voting at the Metropolitan Multi-Service Service right now in Harris County and while the line is long, they say they are getting a new voter on a machine every 11 seconds and the line is moving pretty drat fast. The workers were bragging that they were the fastest polling location in the county.

I've hosted some fun 'drink to forget or just to get drunk' parties in the past, but my schedule has me off at 22:00 now and I doubt there will be too much drama left at that point. So probably just lurking the forums at work.

Yeah, paving over the Katy Prarie land during the last decade has not helpes things. According to a buddy who has property nearby though, the Addicks release has basically flushed open the down stream drainage and the rate of flow is as good as he's ever seen it. So that will help things out in the short term.
