They don't even pretend to try and hide what they're doing. Linking a Spanish speaking singer to violent criminal illegal aliens who don't love America. Cool.
It's amazing how every discussion around Houston always ends up talking shit on anyone living outside the loop or beltway or whatever other imaginary boundary of the moment. Not sure if anyone has noticed, but houses are fucking expensive, insurance is fucking expensive, private school is fucking expensive, and COL is out of control. People live where they can afford to live with the fewest number of trade offs.
Considering how few people even know how to swing a hammer it would be interesting to see that pivot in workforce.
One of the very few positives I see in the impending collapse is that I have manual labor skills and am pretty good at solving problems. No idea what those who don't will do.
Had a convo with one of my brothers that I don't talk to much anymore. ICE came up. We disagree on a lot of it, but at least he would listen. The main point I tried to drive home is that the idea that immigrants are to blame for all of our problems is not new. This has been used time and time and time again because it always works. Just think about it from that perspective and it's a lot easier to see through all the bullshit for what it really is. No idea if it will make a difference, but hopefully it made him think.
Finally got around to installing hardware on our utility room pocket door three years after the door was installed. Not perfect but turned out alright for my first try. Now to paint the door.
I hear this same shit all the time from people who never got the vaccine and nothing happened to them. It was kind of half ass mandated for like two weeks four years ago. Cool.
And most people give no shits. I've probably been following along more closely than I should for my own sanity, but even bringing up the subject with people gets a laugh or an eye roll and they move on with their days. I don't think people have any idea what's coming. I can't even fully grasp how bad it can get. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not sure how we avoid it at this point.
We'll probably get fucked in September or October, but this Summer has kicked ass honestly. If they could all be like this my pissing and moaning would reduce significantly.
