    The entire rest of the country should sue the Biden administration for the right to discriminate against Texas.

      Notice how Texas is kind of the only state where people move to it and can’t stop boasting about how great everything is? Like I think you’re trying to convince yourself not me, buddy.

        It’s only the Conservatives doing that, anymore. I don’t think most folks from Austin, Houston, and Dallas are really under any illusions, anymore.

        And to be fair, Texas has a lot going for it, if only you could excise the cancer that is the Republican party. They ratfuck the state and still somehow manage to scare their followers into believing it would be worse without them.

          As a drunk Houstonian, I agree. Good money, beautiful scenery, loads to do, pretty good booze, lots of tech, and a billion types of cuisine.

          If we could start turning bluer we could fix education and start giving everyone a chance instead of just the rich or lucky.

          I actually like it here but I know how lucky I’ve been after I got so little help when I needed it most.

      California decided long ago that we would all collectively do this without federal approval. So don’t worry, we’ve got this.
