Another Few Weeks Til Ryan Ward Starts Bleating About Pay Raises For Every Swinging Dick Working For The City.

In another month or so, Assistant TO the City Manager Ryan “Dwight Schrute” Ward will get up there with another salary study and inform us that everyone at City Hall is underpaid. Well, except for a few people, but they’ll get raises too.

He’ll also completely ignore the fact that many of those Big Wigs get gold-plated health insurance at about 80% off the market rate. Last year, the cost to insure employees spiked around 13%. He’ll never mention that either.

I took it upon myself to go back to the 2013/2014 approved budget and compare it too our current budget. Then I calculated the compound annual growth rate for a bunch of City departments. For comparison, the City population MAYBE grew about 1% per year during that period.

Here are the results:

City Manager: tops the list at 10.72% ANNUAL growth in expenditures. No surprises there! The guys who turn no wrenches, hook up no power and fix no water pipes while sitting in a nice air-conditioned office take care of themselves the best. NO OTHER DEPARTMENT has annual cost increases like City Manager over the last 10 years.

Building and Planning: comes in next at 10.55% annual growth in expenditures. Seems high for what they do, but what do I know. And no, that doesn’t include all the tens of thousands in “safety grants” that supposedly spur more building around here. Nor does it include the hundreds of thousands handed out to the likes of Deorald Finney and Chris Harrison for their private companies and called “economic development.”

IT Department: comes in third at 9.44% annual growth in expenditures. I’m shocked it isn’t higher. Then again, the amount of actual WORK they do has probably decreased 20% over that same time period as the police department wisely took all the servers out of their hands and handed them over to an expensive third-party to safeguard. Oh, and this is the same IT Department that allowed a ransomware attack that wrecked tens of thousands of dollars of equipment and brought the City to a standstill for 10 days. Nobody was fired or even reprimanded for the huge blunder. Just 10% increases as far as the eye can see!

Hanna Springs Pool: next up at 9.01% annual growth in expenditures. This one is no surprise. The price of chemicals has skyrocketed under Bidenflation and Finley FINALLY realized he had to pay high school kids more than a bag of peanuts to lifeguard. No problem with this department since it is FOR THE CITIZENS!

Fire Department: next up at 6.60% annual compound growth in expenditures. Not sure if the million-dollar fire truck is included in that but that is surprisingly in-line and also it is FOR THE CITIZENS!

Utility Billing and Collections: up next at 6.33% annual growth rate. I have no idea why they need $300,000 a year just to cash checks and collect money, but that’s what it costs. You’d think with the piles of money Ryan Ward requests to “streamline” everything, this item would go DOWN over time – much like the price of a 75-inch TV set. But this is the government we are talking about here.

Police Department: has seen 6.05% annual compound growth rate. Very close to the fire department and ALSO this is a department that DIRECTLY benefits the citizens.

Streets: has seen a measly 3.10% annual compound growth rate. I guess we know where all of Finley and Ryan’s salary/benefits money has been siphoned from! Pathetic. These expenditures don’t even keep place with true inflation. Citizens screwed again here.

Municipal Court: annual growth rate of 2.95%. I don’t even know what they do over there. Guessing this is mostly salaries for clerks? No idea.

Parks: has seen a paltry 1.61% growth rate. Seems impossible with some of their massive expenditures like the pavilion, skate park and the overpriced bathroom at Campbell Park but that’s what the numbers say.

Library: FLAT over 10 years! I’ll be honest. I think the library is mostly filled with bums looking for free wifi so they can fuck around on Facebook and play online poker. I once went on a big “check out all the libraries” binge in my 30s when I lived in other cities. Cities that were spending MILLIONS on their libraries. I found out it was a majority of bums checking out FREE DVD movies and using the Internet. Fuck that. You can pay for that stuff yourself on Amazon. Libraries seem like an expensive anachronism to me. Kind of like the Chamber of Commerce.

Hippie Dippy Stoner Chick Is A “Strong Independent Woman.” Then Gets Crushed and Paralyzed Moving Piano.

Down with the evil patriarchy! We don’t need no men! A woman can do anything a man can do!

Except move a piano, apparently.

Danielle Drummond had just moved to Oregon – home of all useless stoner hippies. She decided that she and her fellow Strong Independent Woman should move a piano by themselves.

There is nothing “freak” about this accident. Pretty predictable, actually. Two weak girls attempt to move a heavy piano on stairs. That is a man’s job. Probably 3 or 4 men, actually.

Liberal women are all pretty much ACTUALLY retarded. I mean, you can ignore reality all you like. But you cannot ignore the CONSEQUENCES of ignoring reality. Eventually, physics will win.

Here’s another one where a moron liberal chick ignored reality and reality paid her back in spades…

The REALITY is that this guy is a piece of shit. But the liberal moron ignored this reality in favor of some “he’s a victim of racism,” nonsense instead of accepting there are some truly evil people in the world.

It may seem sick to us, but many of these liberal women literally fantasize about being victimized in this manner. Reality will oblige.

How do I know Danielle is a hippie dippy chick just by that article? Just because she moved to Oregon, which is Mecca for all idiot liberals? Well, I also found her Facebook page…

Blah, blah, blah, Trump is a rapist, blah, blah, tranny rights, blah, blah, women are a strong as men, blah, blah, a woman can have a penis, etc.

She ignored reality. But now she cannot ignore the CONSEQUENCES of that reality – which is that she’s now a shopping cart for the rest of her life.

I have zero doubt that Danielle has no insurance of any kind, so now the good people of Oregon will get to foot her multi-million-dollar surgery and rehab bills.

Hopefully they have voting locations that are wheelchair-compliant so poor dumb Danielle can keep voting for the death of Western civilization.

Local Communist Who Flies Foreign Flags On His (Mom’s) House Complaining About Obscure Pine Tree Flag.

You can’t make this stuff up…

I’ll be honest. I’d never heard of or seen this flag…and I consider myself pretty up-to-date on current events. I certainly never heard it was a “symbol” of January 6th. Says who? A bunch of idiot liberals who made that up after seeing it on Alilto’s flag pole?

Comrade Clayton prefers to fly the flag of a corrupt foreign country on HIS (mom’s) house…

That would be the same “democratic” country that just last week cancelled elections – allowing the corrupt, gay midget Zelenskyy to remain in power.

Ukraine President Zelensky Says Time Not Right for Elections

Oh, and what’s this??? More hypocrisy and subterfuge. Truly, liberals are nothing more than dogshit.

Fire Up The Grill

My friends Amy and George at Winter’s Beef were working hard the last few days and weeks. They load up the coolers and trucks early and head to farmer’s markets which are hours away.

They have their website available for buying steaks and burgers. They remind you a week or two before any holiday weekend to stock up for your holiday parties and even give you great recipes for their steaks and burgers.

The are REAL ranchers.

What do FAKE ranchers do for a big holiday weekend where a lot of meat is bought and sold? Why, they make tweets and social media posts endorsing yet another commie piece of shit or Paki muzzie who wants to help wreck America further…

FAKE ranchers also talk a lot about a website, but then six months later…no website. Totally forgotten like the failed Substack project. Because it is MUCH easier to sit in mom’s upstairs bedroom in the air conditioning and cry about how unfair life is.

You see, the website project will NEVER get done. That’s because fake ranchers have no actual products to sell. How do you sell non-existent products on a website? You can’t.

I think I DID see Comrade Clayton at the park the other day though…..

At least he’s an expert on goats, though.

Not.

Savanna goats are known for their milk production.

“You can milk anything with nipples.”

“I have nipples, Greg. Can you milk me?”

Evil Libshit Crone Carol Garner Doughty Lands In Massachusetts. Immediately Joins Exclusive Club Which Keeps Out Gross Riff Raff.

Let’s check in on Texas-hating, tranny-raising retard Carol Garner Doughty, shall we?

It only took four days in her new liberal paradise for libskank Carol and her husband Stephen Hawking to find and join an exclusive club.

She belongs in a “castle-like” building. You do not. Peasant!

Mind you, this is the same bitch that is in favor of MY exclusive club (the United State of America) letting in every third-world, illiterate scumbag from Haiti and Africa with no vetting because they are fake refugees asking for fake amnesty.

Because she is a hypocritical harridan of the highest order.

She needs this club because diversity-loving Carol moved to Lenox MA – which is only 98.57% white. Carol needs to be 100% sure she NEVER has to run into any slightly brown or black people unless they are trimming her grass, you see. So it was imperative to join an exclusive country club to bring that percentage up to 100.

They have FIVE POOLS, yo!!

I’m sure the pumps for all those pools and the heaters for all those hot tubs and the mowers for the hundreds of acres of golf course grass ALL run on solar power and windmills, right? Because evil libskank Carol wants to ABOLISH fossil fuels immediately!!

I’m sure Carol and Stephen Hawking used a battery-powered moving truck to move all their priceless furniture and expensive piano from Texas to Massachusetts, right?

Not exactly. The piano got its own truck for the Big Important Move. It’s ok for Carol to ship a piano in a diesel truck for 1,700 miles – thus burning about 200 gallons of diesel fuel – but YOU peasants should NOT be allowed to take frivolous trips to see grandma in your pickup truck. Because you are unworthy swine – and she is not.

LEDC Hands Another $20,000 Tax Dollars Out For “Life Safety Grant”

The last time they gave out a chunk this big, it was to Mercer and his Heritage Funeral Home in 2021. Mercer is really hurting for cash, you see…

According to the Radiogram…

During their monthly meeting on Wednesday, May 15th, the Lampasas Economic Development Corporation awarded a Life Safety Grantto a business referred to by its building’s address, but not its name,in their meeting agenda. The Life Safety Grant will help the business cover the cost of building upgrades, so long as that cost does not go over $20,000.

“We’re very excited we got someone applying for the grant,” LEDC Board President Misti Talbert commented. Following discussion of the renovation project, the LEDC board unanimously voted to reward the grant.

A business referred to by the building’s address but not its name? That’s pretty weird, if you ask me. Why all the secrecy? I mean, Misti is EXCITED to hand out $20,000 in tax dollars…but doesn’t want to mention any names? Just my opinion, but it makes it look like you have something to hide.

Misti is VERY good at handing out tax dollars. She gave Deorald Finney a $72,000 break on electrical hookups for his Stone Valley project. A project where Finney promised houses would be sold for “$150,000 to $180,000” but then jacked the prices to the $250,000 area.

Talbert also handed her old City council buddy Chris Harrison at S2M2 $185,000 for a “detention pond” that appears to not actually detain any water whatsoever.

Oh – and Misti also pilfered $971,000 in Covid relief money from the City to piss away on her Business Pork Project that is 20 years old, has wasted over $7.4 million dollars and STILL sits empty 30 months after she wasted the LAST million on it.

Great job, Misti! Truly, you are a “community champion”! Which is why I gave her an F on her mayoral report card a few years ago.

Holy God. We Are Going To Get Destroyed If We Ever Fight a REAL Enemy.

Trannies, woke morons, fat chicks….and homos prancing on the deck of a carrier putting lipstick on. What the FUCK.

The sad part is if the commander of this ship tried to boot this fruit off, HE’D be the one losing his job. Not the fruit. We are a total embarrassment as a country.

Are old farts like me with bad backs and busted rotator cuffs going to have to grab the guns from these pussies when the shit hits the fan? Christ.

Thanks Clinton. Thanks Obama. Thanks Biden.

Parasitic Socialist Clayton Tucker Has His Goat Herd Decimated By Parasites.

Sweet irony.

I knew it would only be a matter of time before local socialist parasite Clayton Tucker had to face more adversity over at his make-believe goat-photo ‘ranch.’

First it was all his babies being eaten by the dreaded Texas VultureBuzzard (TM) last year.

There ARE no buzzards in Texas. But if there were, they would DEFINITELY go after live animals….because that’s what they do.

Now he has a new problem: parasites. This is very fitting, because Clayton Tucker HIMSELF is a parasite upon humanity, his parents and a free-market capitalist society. So to see him get hosed by parasites is truly poetic justice.

The Brilliant Goat Professor informed all his followers that “it turns out that parasites are not great for goats,”

The socialist who hates Big Corporations and CEOs who make $100 million has no problem blowing $250 on Apple Air Pods.

You would think a “fifth-generation rancher” would not be taken by surprise by ANY of this shit. But you’d be wrong.

What is Comrade Clayton’s solution to his parasite problem? Is it to rotate pasture more often so the goats don’t eat the grass down too far towards the soil? Or perhaps take fecal samples every month so you are on top of any outbreaks?

Nah, fuck all that. Too much work. That cuts into his Twitter and protesting time in Austin.

What Comrade Clayton does is just leave all the old diseased carcasses out in the field for the VultureBuzzards (TM) to pick over and then ask mom to buy him some more goats.

I can just picture it:

“Mom, I need better goats this time! Tougher ones that don’t get parasites! These ones all died.”

So a guy like me with a brain immediately thinks: “I’ve never heard of Savanna goats. I’ve driven by dozens of places around here with tons of goats and they are all Boer or Spanish. So if this breed is SO AWESOME and super resistant to parasites, why doesn’t EVERYONE raise these goats?”

But Comrade Clayton doesn’t have a logical brain. He has the brain of a 12-year-old girl, as I have established many times. So he thrashes about from one problem to the next without thinking two or three steps down the road.

Kind of like how the idiot communist Chinese killed every sparrow they could find in 1958 so they would stop eating the crops but then when the birds were all gone, the insect population exploded and ate all their crops anyways. Then 45 million of them starved to death. THAT is how Comrade Clayton thinks.

So naturally, the FIRST thing I do is Google “disadvantages of Savanna goats.” Turns out, there are several…which Comrade Clayton will eventually discover towards the end of this year, probably.

They need a LOT more room to graze. They grow a lot slower (cost more to feed). More prone to foot rot and joint problems. They can be VERY aggressive towards humans. I’m pretty sure they cost a LOT more to purchase initially – I just sent an inquiry to a REAL goat producer to ask how much they cost. So we’ll know soon enough.

Oh, and their meat “has a distinct flavor profile.” LOL. I think that’s a nice way of saying maybe they taste like shit.

That last part about taste doesn’t really matter, I guess. Because very few of Comrade Clayton’s goats will manage to stay alive under his care long enough to be sold as meat. He just likes taking pictures of them for all the Dumb Old Liberal Ladies (DOLLs) on Facebook to fawn over.

However, I DO look forward to him being attacked by an angry Billy in the near future.
