why are people still driving their tour buses through that county? i realize Texas is huge and its probably a huge pain in the ass detour to get around it, but c'mon celebs, if you have the weed its going to get found in that place.

You answered your own question. They still drive tour buses through their because it's on I-10, the main artery of that part of the state. Any sideways entrances are not to be trusted.
The real SMDH thing about this is they were headed to AUSTIN. How hard would it have been to just dump what they had in El Paso or something? If you can't get weed/hash in upon arrival in Austin you simply are not trying at all.
That Austin date has now been postponed btw.

Okay, looking at the map now, they could have picked up State 62/180 in El Paso and taken it to Carlsbad, then hung a right on 285 to head southeast to Fort Stockton were they could have resumed traveling on I-10. That probably would have added a couple hours to the trip tho.

"Now, most of the people were very nice to me. There are four of you out there, and I want you to know that I heard everything you did. I wrote it all down with your names and everything you did and said stupidly thinking that I couldn't hear or see you. I then ripped the paper up, but not before I encoded it and-- I got two lock boxes. We'll call them "holding cell one" and "holding cell two". In "holding cell one" is the encoded version of the shit that you did that I know was inappropriate and probably illegal. In "holding cell two" is the decoder. I'm the only one who holds the key, and you and I will be intimate forever because I will hold that secret forever. Unless of course the celebrity that you had so much interest in but you wanted to accuse me of bringing up while you laughed at me all night? Unless you're interested in being a celebrity, I'll make you fucking famous any time you ask and I'll open those boxes. So why don't you stay in your fucking holding cell?"

― Totally different head. Totally. (Austin), Monday, 30 September 2019 17:24 (four years ago) link
The great thing about the “If I’m butter, if I’m butter, then he’s a hot knife” line is that it’s just Fiona playing coy - she makes it clear in the background harmonies that she’s the one in control: “I’m a hot knife, I’m a hot knife, he’s a pat of butter.”
Best song.

The singer [ Fiona Apple] had never heard of Prince George’s County before helping with Gasping for Justice, but she has become one of the team’s most prolific court watchers, volunteering three times a week and helping lead a committee focused on maintaining virtual access....

Thats cool - I wasn’t aware of court watchers. Sounds like a good thing for her to be helping with and drawing attn to (though I’m also glad she wasn’t the focus of this story).

Fiona Apple has a story for you. And it’s incredible. Asked me to share. She's become an avid, trained Court Watcher. Her observations helped people jailed pretrial file a civil rights lawsuit. Then came the retaliation. Shut off her access to court.A video story in 8 parts: pic.twitter.com/uhpgOLWFS6— Scott Hechinger (@ScottHech) October 24, 2022
