Or rather, we have more local regional industry-focused events so we stop treating GDC like Game Dev Walmart.

Talarico also declared in September, and Crockett waited until December, when people are thinking about end-of-year stuff. But Colbert having him on and then getting nudged by CBS legal not to put him on network, was a bonus no one could have planned, and elevated him greatly.

And the rest.

Maybe it's a good thing the new GTA is delayed.

Amazing what can happen when you're ready for it. Crockett had been on The Late Show at least twice, but not in context of the campaign, and it could be because she wasn't able to, in the same way she wasn't able to barnstorm across the state the way Talarico did.

Father sues Google, claiming Gemini chatbot drove son into fatal delusion | TechCrunch A father is suing Google and Alphabet, alleging its Gemini chatbot reinforced his sonโ€™s delusional belief it was his AI wife and coached him toward suicide and a planned airport attack.

Talarico grew up in Round Rock and went to high school at McNeil. He goes to church in Wells Branch. He shot a campaign video at Cisco's on 6th. He's a local guy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSZ2...

โ€˜This L is on herโ€™: Black lawmakers and strategists dump on Crockett โ€œShe has been and has felt like a woman on an island,โ€ says one operative.

Crockett clearly thought she could skate far further on her star power, but she also had to continue being a Congresswoman.

And now some people are mad at her. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Talarico declared for the Senate in September 2025.
Crockett declared for the Senate in December.
Talarico's a senator in a state legislature that meets every other year, not this year. He pushed his record creating laws and could focus full time on his campaign.

If it makes people forget Section 31, good. But it does suggest strongly that Trek as a property is being led mostly by executives rather than creatives with a plan. But, that's kind of how it's always been. They had to convince Roddenberry that the Betazed females shouldn't have four boobs.

So, supposedly there are 17.8 million registered voters in Texas.
About 2.1 million voted D.
About 1.7 million voted R.

Not enough people learned the most important lesson of 2016. Though to be fair, that was 10 years ago. Long enough to forget.
