Trying to watch that mess felt like listening to my schizophrenic relative explain her dream: Not fucking worth getting invested. Still voting against Trump but jeeze, this sure isn't helping the case for our electoral system. Giant douche or Turd sandwich would literally be more compelling.

I legit had so much anxiety and despair watching the first 15 minutes I had to get up, walk a literal quarter mile to clear my head, then got back, heard more, walked out on the porch and just cried.

I'm so getting arrested for being gay in Texas. I can feel it in my bones.

Dude, I know it isn't always possible, but I would be doing everything in my power to get out of Texas before they set up state border crossings to contain their breeding-aged female hosts. It isn't just gaiety that makes us vulnerable to the boot, certain reproductive organs make us targets as well.

I am worried about a lot of the people in Texas, sending hugs.

they set up state border crossings

That's one of the few things that is almost certainly unconstitutional and I don't think even this SCOTUS would let fly. Free travel between the states and federal power over interstate commerce are just too big a deal.

They are already trying to restrict interstate travel for the purposes of abortion. I really don't think it's outside of the realm of possibility.

This SCOTUS would 6-3 vote how it’s not only legal, but can be enforced with Judge Dredd style executions.
