More people should be upset about the proposed Big Bend border wall. Using @cbp's numbers:
The sector accounts for 25% of the border and 1.3% of the crossings. 3,096 last year.
Assuming the wall has 100% success for 50 years, that's $41,989 per prevention, not counting upkeep.
@botticellibimbo Texas can save the nation this election!
It represents 10% of the House but only 2% of the Senate.
It's been a while since Texas has elected a senator that cares more about the people than themselves.
Cast my ballot for the midterms. I voted for one Republican, the only one that stood up to federal overreach, @DrBuckinghamTX. Thank you Dawn.
The rest have done the opposite of defend Texas. Vote them out.
It was an amazing 2nd, 3rd, and 4th night at the Terlingua Star Park! I sold 288 of 300 possible tickets.
Signed Miles Adams as a resident musician. He's so underrated; vibe's perfect for telescope time. I wouldn't replace him with @rogerwaters.

I'm trying to find the balance of venue lighting with stargazing, eliminating the need to deploy handheld lights. Here's @claudeai's suggestion:
Grand opening of The Terlingua Star Park is October 2nd. Only 198 tickets remain!

I've never been more excited for a project. My goal is 1,000 guests a week.
I wish it weren't facing the existential threat of a well lit border wall.
