No one has come for this sweet boi.
Are you in the #Houston area? Would you—or someone you know—like a doggo? He’s super smart, affectionate, house-trained, well-behaved, well-socialized, loves to play. He’s husky & German shepherd, he’s only about 9-10 mos old, & he’s going to be a big boi! He needs a good, loving home, and my son & d-i-l can’t keep him. #DogNeedsHome #LostDogsOfMastodon #LostDog

Famed social media food critic Keith Lee surprised a booming Houston-area pudding shop with a $50,000 gift to support its expansion. Lee's flattering review in 2023 sparked a surge in business for The Puddery.
The government spent years probing allegations that a Dallas HOA created rules to kick poor Black people out and that Texas discriminated against minority residents in Houston after Hurricane Harvey, only to suddenly reverse course under Trump.
Please boost? My son & d-i-l in #Houston found a #LostDog under my son’s truck. Spring Branch / Rollingwood area. Male, looks like a Husky / shepherd mix? Very smart, very affectionate, well socialized, good on a leash, loves toys. Is currently sprawled across my d-i-l’s lap on the sofa. Misses his ppl, we’re sure, so pls spread the word. #DogsOfMastodon
From the @texastribune: Two people have been arrested and charged with performing illegal abortions at a Houston-area health clinic, the first criminal charges brought under the state’s near-total #abortion ban. https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-first-abortion-arrests-attorney-general-investigation/
“Friends, we indicated that if we had the House, the Senate and the presidency, there were certain things that we would do. Well in 2021, we had the House, the Senate, and the presidency.”
During his #Austin visit on Wednesday, Congressman Al Green was sharply critical of the failures of the #Democrats and called for mass protest in Washington, D.C. in response to #Trump and #DOGE's attack of vital social services and government agencies. https://austinfreepress.org/no-capitulation/
New today from me at Austin Free Press: Congressman Al Green visited #Austin on Wednesday afternoon, to talk about getting kicked out of the House and censured for protesting Donald #Trump.
He called for millions of people to march on Washington, D.C. to protest cuts to vital services, #DOGE, and our current constitutional crisis. https://austinfreepress.org/no-capitulation/

@benroyce@mastodon.socialOne of the side effects of the #gishGallop of endless hate and outrageous stupidity is that it obscures the abuses of yesterday, yet they continue, while outrage and attention shifts
Example:
the sadistic attack on #womensRights
"Two #Houston-area clinic employees arrested for allegedly providing illegal #abortion s"
We must confront the totality of the #plutocrat-#bigot #political axis in the #USA and not be endlessly distracted
https://www.texastribune.org/2025/03/17/texas-abortion-midwife-arrested/
A #midwife & an associate have been arrested & charged w/illegally performing abortions in greater #Houston, acc/to court records & the #Texas AG, apparently the first #criminal arrests of #abortion providers since #SCOTUS overturned #RoeVWade in 2022.

A month ago 44 Tesla tires were stolen right off the cars in a Tesla storage lot. I guess when they aren't spontaneously combusting their wheels are falling off.

@notjustbikes this looks awfully similar to the galleria area in #Houston, which is just a block or two from a light rail station and is responsible for one of the most car congested zones in all of Houston.
