I got honked at today by an empty @waymo #WhiteGhost in my own neighborhood. Flipping the bird to a robot just doesn’t have the same satisfaction.
I've said it before; when there's a bat problem in the #TxLege - I am the only first responder you need. I guess technically this is a gaggle of #Riverbats & not flying rats with wings - but still, a bat is a bat & I should have been on the scene. #TxLegeBatman cc: @3SeveralDays
A wonderful group of @accdistrict student leaders, professors, and trustees stopped by my office this afternoon for Community College Day at the Texas Capitol. Thanks for dropping in, Riverbats! #txlege
Because I know @3SeveralDays will ask - the #TxLegeBatman hasn't been to Cedar Park in ages. But if that bat keeps this up - he's gonna #FAFO - I don't like going up that far north, but I will if called upon.
Officials say there is currently no known person who came in direct contact with the bat. kvue.com/article/news/l…
It was great catching the man in black y’day for a quick photo with some other #TxLege regulars who understood the assignment. #PaintItBlack Cc: @VikkiGoodwinTX, @toddahunter, @SalmanBhojaniTX, @LASimmonsTX146

For those participating in "Paint the House Black" day today - we're going to meet in the pit on the 2nd floor stairs for a photo op with Chairman @toddahunter on adjournment. Listen for announcements and/or spread the word. #TxLege #PaintTheHouseBlack

For those fans of both @nbcsnl & @nytimes…the brilliant minds behind #Connections trolled the SNL opening skit from 5/3/25 (Trump exec orders).

My big dilemma for my very first #SneakerThursday of the #TxLege season. I almost texted @DiegoBernalTX or @leachfortexas for counsel. I went with the dress socks. Did I get it right?

What part of #TxLege session are you in? My friend has reached this point. Here is this person’s plate at our breakfast meeting this morning.

I low-key love being in the #TxLege halls at this time of night (photo at 6:45pm). Sun starting to go down, only a few of us nerds/junkies still here.

If we had escalators in the #TxLege, the #TxLegeBatman would have had him doing kart wheels down that thing.
We all have fears. When you see someone who is afraid, help them overcome it. Be Batman.
The fake smiles on my kids were solely because desserts were promised for dragging them to a @TexasMBB game at the #MoodyCenterATX. Great win…which I never doubted for the last 90 seconds of the game.


You misspelled “#HookEm”
I had an absolute blast taking part in this year's Member Football Game, hosted at @UTAustin. Looking forward to bringing this same energy to the legislative session as we fight for the people of Texas! #txlege #week4 #HD100 #Gigem
Walking though the #TxLege today, I saw a mascot which appeared to have wings so my #TxLegeBatman radar was in high alert. Alas, I wasn’t needed as a first responder, just as a lunch host & to take notes in Senate B&C. Carry on.

I heard there was a bat in the #TxLege Capitol today but I never got any call on my bPhone to take care of the problem. If y'all ain't gonna throw up a bat sign or tag me somewhere, ain't no way the #TxLegeBatman can swoop in to the rescue!
The new A/V system in the #TxLege seems to have silenced @FrontMicScreech. Am I wrong?
