Is this satire? I can no longer tell…

That wheeled ghoul is why people in wheelchairs rolling over cliffs is funny.

Come on guys, he is walking proof that prayer works.

If they had made the article about Utah instead of Texas I wouldn't have even noticed it was The Onion.

That made me chuckle.

If it is good enough for gun control...

For every 10k thoughts & prayers, 0.005w is generated.

i had to look twice cause this is so believable

I'm gonna be honest, I didn't think this was the onion at first. Sigh.

You wait I'm sure the push is coming to bring prayer back to schools

Known to be equally as effective as current Republican policies...

Well, I have a thought for him.

He wouldn't know what to do with a thought of it hit I'm in the face. Jackass ...

Sure, and the banks will honour it, too, right? RIGHT??
PeaceBaby
But seriously, how is this asswipe still governor?
zombywoof68
Because he's a Republican. And it's Texas.
TheHappyHermit
many asswipes in Texas that will sit and stew in their own ass sweat as the grid fails in order to stick it to the libs
valiantaesir
Gerrymandering and idiots, unfortunately.

Because we have an inordinate amount of people with substandard educations. At least it's only 103°, right now, in DFW.

When Texas talks about "regulation" they mean they can shut off your water and power when they feel like if they think you don't deserve some in order for others to have it. There's always bullshit water and power restrictions. Their solution isn't to build the systems out more or solve problems. Just tell us to stop using so much. And, if they think we're still using too much, they shut it off to punish us. Utilities are becoming a control mechanism to keep peasants in line.

Where in Texas do you live? I don't know anyone that takes the public notices as anything more than a suggestion.

I thought this was real and didn't even bat an eye. I only saw the logo because I paused long enough to ponder what exactly a prayer system was in this context.

"Sounds about right. Oh, The Onion? I wonder how long until it actually *is* right."
BlueDsc
Even after seeing it's from the Onion I'm not entirely convinced it isn't actually real.
sarzaya
They need to make that Onion bigger. Cuz reality isn’t going to get further from such possible misjudging.

Mostly unrelated question, but what's with the little plus below the onion's pfp? Is this a screenshot from one of the new social media sites?
TheobromineAddict
Threads. I think the + is an invitation to follow them.
drspangle
Ahhh, was wondering if that's what it was! Thank you
