Texas

We're very weird in Texas. Despite the failures of our politicians, many residents have really strong positive feelings about our state because of the size and variety of options available - other than abortion and education funding of course. Each city/area has it's own Identity, landscape, history, and culture which creates sort of a nationalism, even though there's often animosity between them - Dallas and fort Worth hate each other because fort Worth is full of rednecks and Dallas thinks it's so fucking cosmopolitan. Most of us are disgusted by the Texas we see on the news and wish the rest of the world could see big bend, Hill country, the piney woods, Palo duro canyon, and the Texas Coast.
