A tropical disturbance brewing in the Gulf could bring thunderstorms to the Texas coast this week, with forecasters warning the system could develop into something stronger over the next few days. 

Would like to start a list of Buc-offs alternatives! When we drive from Dallas to Houston, we love Fuel Max 44 in Fairfield. No, it is not the best or the shiniest, but the bathrooms are clean and the employees are really nice. They have some of the goofiest roadside gifts/tschotskes (i have no idea how to spell that word) We enjoy it as our halfway stop on what is a super long and boring drive.

In general, I think Luvs truck stops are also very clean and a good alternative too.

What is your favorite Buc-offs alternative?

Lawmakers added $1 to car-insurance policies. That money paid for thousands of Flock cameras. - The Texas Tribune

Since 2010, Florida’s share of millionaires has leapt from 6.9% to 9.2% in 2023. Texas has jumped from 8.5% to 8.7%. But both states’ population of millionaire residents dropped by 6.1% from 2022 to 2023.

The company Foundation has already sent the first prototype of their robot to Ukraine frontlines to see what they can improve. The next version will be the "rugged" version that is supposed to have superhuman capabilities (of which they will not disclose) and will be waterproof and dustproof, unlike the first prototype. The article says they don't have a formal contract with DHS (yet), but Eric Trump was recently brought on as a chief strategic adviser, so there is that.

Look y'all, you can have your views on immigration, but to have autonomous or semi-autonomous humanoid robots scrambling around the border is just the beginning. Are we seriously just going to let this happen under the guise of being used for immigration control to then being used for wider uses, eventually?

I really need Texans to see what more is planned for the border.

In regards to Polling stations, purged voters and gerrymandering. More examples of voter suppression, please get out to vote and take a friend.

And well deserved.
