Age verification on adult sites seems to make sense on the surface. Too bad it's a terrible idea in practice- or at least as it is implemented in Texas HB 1118

Apparently, even the Hundred Acre Wood isn't safe from mass shootings anymore. Children as young as four were given books about mass shootings featuring Pooh.

HB 3297 just passed the Texas Senate. If Governor Greg Abbott signs it, Texans will no longer need to pass an annual safety inspection.

Electric vehicles are getting more affordable- they may soon match the cost of gas-powered cars. But starting in September, it will get more expensive in Texas.

The hope behind this law is that there will be a "good guy with a gun" to stop a school shooting. Honestly, I believe it is a good idea... in some cases.

I hope that with age comes wisdom, because if young people don't vote we literally get no say in anything that happens in our state.
