Exactly. He's going to punish someone for stepping up to him. What a choad. :roll: Leaving his comments/reasons aside, I think it is a good time to have the discussion on weather or not Twitter and other social media platforms should enjoy the distinct liability exemptions they have when they are f...

Re: 2019 Taxes
I’ve lived here 7 years. I’ve met literally NO ONE who likes Houston. Dallas is about 50/50. Ft Worth has it’s own “vibe” and I’d agree with Chizzy there. I’m not a uuuuuuge fan of Austin, but at least its in some pretty country. The rest of the state? Just filled with downright good people. I do l...

Re: Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc.
https://i.imgur.com/QZ5TIIE.jpg I have given this one some thought over the past few months. Obviously there is little Trump can do to “regulate” social media by decree.
