    Better bring a coat, Tara. I've heard it's cold over there.

    She's not moving to Yakutsk any more than people who settle here move to Barrow, Alaska. :)

    Did it always have parody in the name? If it didn't, your post is pretty stupid.

    No, the name of the account was "The minute I post anything, you knee-jerk respond."

    It appears the account was dormant from 2019 until a week ago. When they brought it back, they added "parody" to the title, a la Elon Musk's decree about parody accounts (although even without it saying it, um, duh). It was clear it was a parody account (the name of the account and the description of the account both say it is a parody, and the tweets are just silly) when she tweeted that she and her team are assessing how to deal with an obvious parody twitter account.

    Write more clearly and don't post things worth questioning and I wouldn't respond. You're a mod. Am I even allowed to hide your posts?

    Yes, it was worth questioning whether the account said "parody" when she had tweeted -- something you pulled out of your sphincter -- in order to jump to "stupid." And it's somehow because I am not clear. :rolleyes:

    Yes, because I was referring to the clarity of that particular post and not the thousands of others. The rolling eyes emoji was cute, tho. Lets me know you were being sarcastic.

    I'm sorry I didn't give you a chance to break out your favorite "You always do stuff like this. Try responding to what I actually said." Maybe next time.

    You have to click through to see the (Parody) label, which isn’t how most people consume Twitter. Looks like they are within the terms of service but are being manipulative for the sake of (alleged) LOLs.

    In Texas AG Paxton's impeachment trial in the state Senate, his wife the state Senator will be a juror. Obviously she *should* recuse herself, but it seems that it is not required by Texas law. On the one hand there's a bribery charge related to getting his mistress a job in town so he didn't have to road trip to see her. On the other, Mrs. Paxton knew all about those $30k kitchen counters that appeared in her house..

    Juror and spouse: Texas state Sen. Angela Paxton could vote in trial on husband's impeachment
