A Keep Warm and Buy as Little as Possible Wrangle
We have the capitalists nervous already, y'all.
While some small businesses didn't see long lines this Black Friday, they are optimistic more people are comfortable shopping on Small Business Saturday. https://t.co/4yWw6RxvcA

Your local small business needs your help.
hey comrades, instead of buying corporate stuff on black friday, consider supporting an lgbtq+ autistic artist and buying a print or original. it’s hard to support oneself as an artist. so every purchase is so appreciated. https://t.co/hQrtOkGSeY

My offer to you:

Buy a six-month subscription to @HoustonChron for 99 cents and I will mail a bag of hair to one of the digital folks here every time they post a story about whether Matthew McConaughey will run for governor of Texas.
Deal?https://t.co/fiR99XzdsN

Yeah, gonna keep it light today. More Funnies tomorrow, and back to the cold, cruel reality of a sick sad world on Cyber Monday.
Today it's turkey tetrazzini, maybe some turkey enchiladas, and mostly a collection of tryptophan-induced soothers.
god damn this governor's race is going to be off the charts dumb, even for texas. https://t.co/5zHfrd30S9

Tens of thousands, not hundreds; I have been corrected. Okay. You ever driven to San Antonio without stopping until Frank's in Schulenburg (you know, before it closed) and then pissed steadily for a minute and 45 seconds? My response is the same: who's counting?
As I travel across our state, one topic continues to come up in conversation: cannabis. And whether we should #legalizeit in Texas is an important debate we ought to be having.
— Joe Jaworski (@JaworskiForTX) November 24, 2021
I know where I stand: I am in support of legalized recreational and medicinal #cannabis in Texas. 1/7
Read Joe's thread.

Democrats: Do NOT let Republicans get to the left of you on this.
This looks to be a better bill than the Ds offered. Expungement for non-violent offenders. ATF oversight instead of FDA, and 3% tax instead of 25%. There’s more, but Ds are getting rolled by a first-term SC Repub.

(I thought you said this was gonna be light.) Yeah. Okay.

We’ve had great turnout for the fabulous show of art and photographs old and new curated by Geoff Winningham.
But we still have amazing prints to sell. So come and buy this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, and help support Save Buffalo Bayou and Friends of Don Greene.
All the work in the show focuses on Buffalo Bayou, from maps and postcards promoting the health benefits of 1836 Houston to recent photographs documenting flora and fauna.
Here is a link to the catalogue. Besides Winningham and 19th century photographers, the show also includes photography by Jim Olive and George O. Jackson, as well as artwork by Janice Freeman.
Gabriela Rodrรญguez (3rd Grade, Treasure Forest Elementary School), “Legend of the White Buffalo,” 2016.
Signed, archival pigment print from an original monoprint.
Don’t forget to check out the lovely large-format photos and artwork on display in the cafรฉ itself, 2604 Dunlavy. The bulk of the show is hung in the gallery, located next door at 1709 Westheimer.
“Baptism in Buffalo Bayou,” ca 1900-1914. Baptism on the South Bank of Buffalo Bayou, opposite Glenwood Cemetery. Anonymous photographer.
The stunning grounds, abandoned building and its history have made the property alluring to trespassers, but Sugar Land Police warn they're cracking down. https://t.co/M2pjeiCkmW #khou11 @KHOULauren

The Ghost Adventures crew investigated this place a few years ago.
Traces of Texas reader Betty Gillis graciously submitted this great photo of a scissortail chasing a crested caracara in Vernia, Texas. Betty took it herself and I am so jealous. What an action shot! Betty caught it perfectly.

Thank you, Betty. I love it! pic.twitter.com/RAEWlg5JvA
