🚨 Attention dog lovers 🚨
Major is a Belgian Malinois service dog.
He has spent more than 545 days alone in an isolation kennel at the Austin Animal Center.
No walks.
No pets.
No people.
Now the city wants to put him down.
Here's what happened:
* March 2025, a pickup truck hit Major.
* He was hurt and in pain, and a woman who stopped to help tried to lift him into a car.
* He bit her.
* A municipal judge ordered him euthanized as a danger to the public.
* His human, Shane Lilly, has fought it through the Texas Supreme Court ever since.
Now a federal judge has put the euthanasia on hold and is expected to decide within days whether an independent trainer can evaluate Major for rehabilitation.
More than 54,000 people have signed the petition to free him.
An injured dog snapped while a stranger was moving him.
After a year and a half in solitary, Austin's answer is a needle?
Want to help?
Here's who to reach out to:
Austin Animal Services: 512-974-2000
Mayor Kirk Watson's office: 512-978-2100
Ask them to agree to an independent evaluation and release Major to a qualified trainer.
Please share this and let's get as many people as possible to help this pup!!
Like and share if you want to share the celebration! 🥳
As summer comes to a close, I wanted to congratulate Chicago on ONLY having 1,264 people shot this year so far!!!! So proud of my hometown.❤️💙 If this isn't proof that diversion programs and an activist judiciary works, then I don't know what is!
This is Jacqueline Morris of South Portland, Maine. She’s a nepo baby who owns a Pilates studio called Mome Studios and works for a nonprofit called WorkMoney which helps people exploit welfare programs.
One year ago, she posted this video to celebrate the death of Charlie Kirk.
Just a reminder, she is still sheriff of Pitt County. She is running unopposed. She has gone radio silent ever since I made her go viral for this terrible take. She blocked me on her Sherrif face book account. (Which I think is illegal) hate to see this make the rounds again.
@KtizvE@maebarist1977_1 Great job on the headlamps. I built this version & always hated the decal headlamps. It didn't help that I installed this side too high 🙄
Disturbing video out of Houston, Texas, shows an unidentified man waiting inside a women’s restroom stall as a young girl enters to use the bathroom, before an employee intervenes and forces the man to leave.
This man has a family and a job. Let’s find him.
Last night, my wife and I went to our first WNBA game in Seattle to watch the Storm take on the Fever. It was definitely a different experience, but we ultimately had a good time. Let me tell you why it felt different. For a lot of the people in attendance, it didn’t seem like it was about basketball. It felt like it was about politics. The Seattle crowd was incredibly sensitive anytime Caitlin Clark or Sophie Cunningham touched the ball. They booed relentlessly every time either of them touched the ball, scored, or did anything significant. To me, it didn’t feel like normal sports rivalry. If it were just about basketball, the entire Fever team would have been treated the same way. It felt like something deeper.
In my opinion, a lot of the hostility toward Caitlin Clark comes from the attention she receives, her elite talent, and the fact that she’s become the face of the league. As for Sophie Cunningham, I think much of the backlash stems from her outspoken belief that biological men do not belong in women’s sports or women’s spaces such as bathrooms and locker rooms. The WNBA has a serious challenge on its hands. The league is making more money and attracting more fans than ever before, but it also seems to be struggling to adapt to its rapidly growing audience and the different viewpoints that come with it.
We sat down in our seats, which were amazing by the way, and looked across the court to see two young women wearing XX-XY Athletics shirts and holding signs thanking Sophie for speaking out. We paid attention to them a little during the first quarter, but we got so caught up in the game that we didn’t notice them again the rest of the night. Hearing that one of the Storm’s owners allegedly confronted them and ruined their experience is a really bad look for the league if that’s what happened. The WNBA should look into it. I’ve also read that people tried to trip them as they walked to their seats and were cussing at them. If that’s true, that’s unacceptable. Those seats aren’t cheap. Let people enjoy the game and support the players they came to watch without being harassed.
