Maybe I'm overly sensitive because I live here, but I'm really tired of seeing "F Texas," "Texas can secede," etc. Nearly half of the citizens of Texas are democrats. We are trying like hell to change things, and it's an uphill battle. We need support, not jokes.

I had a woman come up to me in the grocery store to angrily tell me she hates my tattoos and I won't be able to get a job with them. She was not amused when I told her I did commercial real estate and asked if she wanted a business card.

@TheRealMatticuz @MichaelAvenatti He's like a boyfriend I had who would hit me, or cheat, or do something else horrible, then cry like this. When I broke up with him, he was baffled. This guy is a prime example of entitlement, trying to convince people HE is the real victim.

@mmpadellan Just like any time I change lanes in the grocery store, I end up behind someone who’s paying with a check and has 4000 coupons.

We have a lot of the shading done now! A few more sessions and we will be done. I’m so excited for this back piece.

I lost my daddy this week, and my heart is broken. He was a professor of literature, a traveler, a beekeeper, a poet, a mentor and a force of nature. My world will never be the same without him in it. He wasn’t always an easy man to love, but I loved him fiercely every day.
