As a Texan it is really sad to see this shit happening. The state used to be all about personal freedoms and staying the fuck out of your personal life, but the political theater has just been "own the libs" for the last decade.

FFS the clowns in charge just tried to pass a law that would neuter the larger metropolitan areas' ability to pass their own legislation because even gerrymandering the high hell out of the state we are still turning purple. Unfortunately, the state is held hostage by rural communities who are afraid of melanin and think Jesus was too "woke".

Can't be Houston, he said 7 lane highway not pothole ridden, Mad Max hellscape

The only confusing part was when people were speaking (until I turned captions on).

I swear Nolan needs to listen to his audio team more often.

Booooooooooooooooo

They are asking the public (internet) to name it. I guarantee it will either be Spot or Giraffey McGiraffeface.

I'm cool with either.

My go-to is "It didn't quite hit for me, but that's the beauty of the reader's perspective. What stood out to you?"

My friends, we are on a collective group of web pages being hosted an run by individuals as a fucking hobby. Shut. Up.

To the admins, thank you.

Pick one:

"Sarge, Pvt Snuffy borrowed my fursuit and returned it all crusty"

Or

"Sergeant, why is half your unit in AA?"

As a left leaning individual with multiple firearms and plenty of ammunition for them, might want to consider there are plenty of us are part of that 47%.

Obviously a sample bias, but quite a few fellow veterans that I went to college with could put my meager collection to shame and share similar viewpoints.

That being said, your doomer outlook and gross oversimplification/assumptions are a joke. There will be no civil war, assholes will continue to be assholes, and you are still making this shit up as you type. Most of these Meal Team 6, cosplaying motherfuckers are too chickenshit to have an altercation where they aren't the only one with the scary broomstick, and 99% of the blowhards wouldn't last a day in an actual combat scenario let alone a "war".

Bigots are bigots and will constantly attempt to suppress that which doesn't align with their narrow minded worldview, however a civil war is not on the horizon.... JFC get over yourself.

Which is why it is amazing
