Being published in the Texas Observer was an absolute highlight of my writing career, and I’m upset—as a subscriber, Texan, and writer— the way the board blew it with a totally stacked deck of amazing talent. It is truly heartbreaking. https://t.co/JCOpQjqQ1I

Today's a great day to directly support the parts of @UTAustin you want to change the world for the better. I'm supporting the @BriscoeCenter and #NativeAmerican and #Indigenous studies. https://t.co/7HAsiDsGQa

It’s ironic how Jennifer Francis, a research professor at Rutgers, published a study in 2012 that suggested Arctic warming would make the “polar vortex” phenomenon more common in the Midwest and Northeast — and it was considered controversial. How many have we braved since then?

We’ve heard reports of outrageous prices on necessary items like food, water and housing. We will not tolerate price gouging. Report gouging at https://t.co/ainGTAAjMn or text 346-354-7459. Violators can face fines of up to $250K. County Attorney @CDMenefee leads this effort.

ERCOT and the state did not properly winterize the states various generation systems because they didn’t want to spend the money. These include outside power plants, wind turbines and fortifying natural gas pipelines. Multi-system failure and millions suffer.

Moving tribute by @reneefeltz to Ray Hill, longtime Houston civil rights activist and self-described "loudmouth queer." He set a Supreme Court precedent, led a march on Washington and hosted a radio show connecting prisoners to family on the outside. https://t.co/QJ6FfapIxM

Folx in #Austin, I am writing a lil' personal essay about eating at Threadgill's WHQ for the last time today, about constructed memory, and about my dear ol' dad who once worked at the Armadillo, and if you wanna run it HMU!
