I’ve never been that far to the south but lately I’ve been reading and watching those novels and movies.
The prevalent idea is: in this world (Texas?) you are alone, nobody gives a cr*p about you, do not trust anyone because they’ll take advantage of you, ridicule and mock you. The world (or maybe only Texas?) is an inhospitable, inhuman, Darwinist place.
I’m actually pretty happy with MY life, but I’m terribly sad about my education and the way the state treats its most vulnerable.
I didn’t have a good extended family, but my immediate family are all pretty great, if undereducated, people. When I left for several years to see the world I learned a whole lot. I came back with skills that get me paid.
I really never got the help I needed here, but I got really lucky in a lot of ways that made it good for me. However, I certainly understand it’s not a good place for everyone and I’m voting and volunteering to try to help change that.
Allred has a chance of beating our loudest idiot senator if things go just right. Tell any friends you have out this way that they can make a difference.
Hey good see ya again. Unfortunately I wasn’t lucky. I’ll let my friends know.
