If this state is going to survive, there needs to be some major changes in government this election cycle.
They care more about a unborn fetus than a living breathing human.
But ONLY when it's unborn. Once it's out, it can go fuck itself for being born
Original sin and all that
I think it's time to start over with Texas at this point
I remember some decade or so ago i watched a little documentary where they build a huge ass new stadium in texas. The sheer size of that thing was repulsive. But the worst part was that they were really proud that they can close the roof and cool it down with the biggest a/c i have ever seen. They are cooked. I don't even see the point of living somewhere where you can't even exist outside. I once met a girl from texas abroad and every time someone mentioned that it was hot, she chimes in and said: actually back in Texas it's way hotter and so on. After talking to her for a few days i realised that yeah, while it's way hotter there, she doesn't spend any time outside. Air-conditioned home, air-conditioned car, air conditioned home to air conditioned workplace.
I think you were referring to the AT&T Dallas cowboys Stadium, and you can see that fucker from space.
And it's basically impossible to exist outside for any period of time here without AC unless you have like 3 gallons of water with you.
Cue George Carlin
