National Guard Called Up In Texas Spouse anon and myself have a friend couple. One of them is Army, stationed locally. This person has been called up by the Nat'l Guard. We should expect "shelter in place" orders soon. This is coming direct from the service member's partner. It's only for Austin as far as I know, but I have to imagine Gov. Abbot will make it happen across all the bigger cities at the least, if not statewide. Not really sure exactly when, but soon. Army person thought by the evening, but I have heard no such news yet. I would imagine by Monday at latest. My brother is in CA in a hotbed (SF area) and says "shelter in place" isn't so bad, they can still jog and hike and go to the store. So, not to worry. And even if it gets more draconian, we'll be ok. Just remember the prize. Just wanted to let the anons and my TX brethren know what I heard. On a side note, I suddenly saw a spike in normie interest/behavior locally as if the national guard news was suddenly an open secret, but hours after I first heard about it.  Some of them were freaking out and saying that there's a rumor that we should have two weeks of food, etc.  I tried to reassure people, but normies are assholes anyhow, and even more so when they're afraid.  It's been fascinating and sad for me today. Hang tough, faggots.
