Lorinda? That sounds relatively normal. I thought in the not-too-distant future, all women would be named Nevaeh. Or Kayleigh, Kyleigh, Reighleigh, or McTardee.
The officer didn't heck her menstrual calendar and perform a vaginal ultrasound to confirm she wasn't driving to Mexico for an abortion. C'mon, Ellis, this is Future Texas, you think that wouldn't still be a major focus of law enforcement?
We def need a refuge west of the line from the eastern-most contact between California and the Sea of Cortez up through to the Canadian border at the east end of Abbotsford.
Okay, I just started reading this and this is hilarious but not funny. I hate it when speculative fiction is likely our future.
They know they’re being made fun of, right?
Well...
Nice work. Can't wait for Chapter Two!
Very weak law enforcement. No pregnancy test.
I love the flow and mix of subtle and NOT subtle humor. So far I'm loving it. Congratulations!
This the open thread then?
No, the open thread is back on Wonkette where it says OPEN THREAD
Yes I discovered that, thanks.
Nice.
Totally amazeballs.

Good stuff.
A nice break from the source material.
Look forward to more. Thanks.
Well, *of course* when TFG (or Junior, or whoever) wrote the Loyalty Oath, it wouldn't have him take second billing to some long-haired dead guy.
Oh, this is awesome! Just happened to notice this article buried among all of the other awesome Monday morning Wonkette posts. ❤
it was supposed to be pinned to the top all day, but because it was a "crosspost" ... GRRRR.
Computers (and shit). Yeah--can't live with 'em,...
I didn't read this at all, but I don't love the graphic. Because I'm ready for a divide, honestly, but not along the graphic's lines. Just sayin'...
That line in the graphic is not meant to be literal--as you'll see as the story progresses.
I'm glad to see a definitive answer to this, as I assumed it was non-literal, but another non-commenter on Wonkette was sure it was literal.

We're with you. To repeat my response to the previous post, the line in our graphic is not meant to be literal.
Truly frightening in just the first few graphs.
I wouldn'ta been able to pledge my allegiance to Mr. Ezra Ferrell McWeeny with a straight face either.
