@john102414 The shadowy government cabal dictating where and how you live isn't the UN and city planners and 15-minute cities; it's CAMPO, CTRMA, TXDOT, and all the other highway builders building massive roads to greenfield suburban housing and big box stores.

@SteveBrusatte The city limits is the state line. The easternmost street in Chicago is literally State Line Road and you cross it and youre in Hammond, Ind.

@MattMackowiak @RyanAutullo Wasn't the whole point of opposition that the logo was a waste of money? Isn't this a much bigger waste of money?

@rcb05 It's overly complicated; it has a long historical tradition no one can remember, and it's way different from other sports. In other words, it's perfectly baseball.

@byBDavis The parking didn't really disappear. It just turned into garages.

@WalkableAustin @brennangriffin The neighbors said it, but it was council that granted the postponement right? Can we make them show up to these AISD budget meetings and explain that schools have to close and programs get cut because a handful of NIMBYs are uncomfortable with apartments?

@GOTDAYUMMM1 @jasongordo626 @AriWasserman Arkansas left for the SEC 20 years before Texas A&M did. That's a long time to forget a rivalry. The youngest fan who remembers a Southwest Conference game between Texas and Arkansas is 45-48. The youngest fan who remembers the last Big 12 Texas vs Texas A&M again is 24.

@KUT Dont you miss how rustic and beautiful South Lamar was?

@TheFalseNineTX @AdrianHealey @MikeLahoud It's amazing how much worse MLS on AppleTV is than when we just had those guys on the CW.

@TheFalseNineTX Lots to like!
Didn't like - Desler gifting a half-assed clearance back to Stuver for an almost goal!

@brennangriffin Let's discuss. I have a lot of thoughts.

@chaya_tong @statesman So the thing is Austin Energy, which runs the grid, pointedly does not want to use the same IT guys that are just there to make sure Microsoft Office works.

@WalkableAustin @KXAN_News And the demand it will induce is from the Hill Country getting bought up and turned into tract housing and strip malls. This is a catastrophe.

@DeveloperHarris @cityaestheticss Not sure the exact timeline, but most of the tower boom has come after downtown removed minimum parking requirements. Its banks and developers who want parking, not the city.

@StaceyJSpiehler What was the first time?

[John likes Austin FC and hates Elon Musk @jpl486]

@RSGTX91 @NoahMF Nah...Cowboys on Fox. CBS has the AFC games and for the last decade, the broadcast map would be like Bills vs Chiefs (the entire nation except 4 markets); Texans vs Jaguars (Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and North Florida). Now they are good, yes, but historically unwatchable.

They gotta quit letting these small schools like James Madison and Texas A&M in the playoff

[John likes Austin FC and hates Elon Musk @jpl486]

@RedditCFB And next year they're trading games like Auburn and Mississippi State for @ Alabama and @ Oklahoma. 1 loss in SEC play doesn't seem particularly realistic again.
