No, Texas (nor any other state) can not secede from the Union.

Can Texas secede? I heard it is one of the only states that can secede from the United States.

It is a common misunderstanding that Texas has the right to leave the United States. The Texas State Library and Archives Commission (TSLAC) addresses this on their page about Texas’s annexation:

It is said of Texas (and, occasionally, Vermont) that it received a letter or document of permission to withdraw from the Federal Union if it so chose. […] In fact, Texas received no special terms in its admission to the Union. Once Texas had agreed to join the Union, she never had the legal option of leaving, either before or after the Civil War.

Eh, it definitely seems excessive, but it’s likely just a matter of scale. If they’re really that well off, then spending 2 grand on a phone would be similar to buying concert tickets, or bringing a friend along to a theme park, etc.

Good rule.

In college, I had a job and one of my best friends didn’t. I’d often ask if he wanted to go do something, like bowling or grab some food. When he’d say he didn’t have any money, I’d say “I’m asking if you want to, not if you can. It’s on me.” I just wanted to hang out with my buddy.

We’ll fuck him, and fuck you, too!

Somewhere, a Karen is smiling while reading this, thinking about those brats down the street…

Idk about cordless specifically, but the $400 Samsung I had a few years ago was the worst vacuum I’ve ever had. Temperamental, and one of the houses cracked in less than 6 months. Went back and bought another $70 Walmart Bissell that lasted 7 years, after my previous one went 8.

I have heard nothing but great things about Miele.
