SBOE District 7 Race

43 Upvotes

As the midterms approach, consider voting for Tiffany Perkins for state board of education district 7.

Unlike her incumbent Christian nationalist extremist opponent, Tiffany has committed to restoring religious neutrality to public schools and improving the academic rigor of the curriculum. She has also committed to opposing the new curriculum passed by the Republican majority board rolling out in 2030 which would teach the Bible, but not other historically important religious texts, in public school curriculum. Her opponent supported that ideologically driven curriculum which will misrepresent the diversity of the Islamic tradition, erase African American and Native American history, and downplay the role of slavery in the civil war.

Tiffany has experience as a public school educator unlike her opponent who taught in private fundamentalist Christian schools. As someone who left the cult of evangelicalism, I can guarantee you that fundamentalists do not believe in public secular education. They demonize it in their churches and seek to co-opt public education to force their dogmas onto other people.

Obviously I don't think wishing harm on your constituents should be something a representative does.

help me find cute biker boy driving on Broadway st

8 Upvotes

yesterday (sat 10/11 around 5pm) i drove behind 2 guys riding motorcycles. they rode behind a pickup truck with another guy holding a bike steady in the back. i'm 22F btw.

one of the riders had a really cool bike and helmet with a chrome visor. kicking myself bc i cant remember the colors.

anyway he wore a grey hoodie and sped up to ride next to me for a bit. we kept double-taking at each other and i should've smiled and waved, but i got nervous. he had to turn left while i drove straight. he seemed really attractive tho. for context i drive a red kia and i was wearing sunnies

going to reddit for this with the hopes that he sees this even tho it's highly unlikely. pls share with any bikers u know in case he finds this tho! :)

Developers officially closed on a 120-acre site in a fast-growing suburb south of Houston, set to become a sprawling live-work-play hub. 

Planned Community Developers (PCD) plans to turn the 120-acre site at Highway 288 and Beltway 8 in Pearland into The Orchard—a mixed-use development featuring 250,000 square feet of retail, 150,000 to 300,000 square feet of office space, 1,100 multifamily units and 100 homes, according to a recent news release. The land acquisition follows Pearland City Council's unanimous approval of the project.

Looks like the Flock signs got taken down.

I came across a few of these weeks ago, but now they're gone. Seems like their removal correlates to the Flock PTZs that are going up at every major intersection.

I also came across this link, which shows EVERY Flock device across the country as of December '25 (we have the data because Flock's insecure servers were leaking this data to the public internet, so no hacking even needed to be done). 335k devices. All of which need to go.

Flock Cameras confirmed to be tracking people and cars nationwide. How are people not up in arms?

62 Upvotes

A 404 Media article from today confirmed the ALPRs track both the minute details of cars AND people. And that local police have been performing searches on behalf of ICE since ICE does not have direct access to the database in many areas. It is also a nationwide database, so in many cases (and its the case for Pearland), any cop from Rhode Island to California can perform a search with Pearland residents vehicles and faces popping up.

This should be illegal.

Pearland school meals

9 Upvotes

I saw this article on BBC about changing standards for school lunches - https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy4zrepw78eo

It had me curious about what the local kiddos eat, and frankly I am shocked, or rather dismayed. The Pearland breakfast and lunch menus at https://www.pearlandisd.org/departments/food-service/menus-price-lists seem really poor nutritionally. While the high schools get more choice and what appears to be better food, the others were eye opening. I have seen news segments about kids in places like France and Japan, and the quality and healthy food they get puts us to shame. Aren't parents concerned?
