I decided to start a Texas General Thread because I think it's one of the top 5 most influential states in the union if not THE most influential states, and it's been very active in modern America generating headlines and money.
Between it's unique self defense laws, it's unique economy, it's unique immigration issues and political situations as well as it's recognizable culture on the global stage I feel that it deserves its own thread.
You can come here to post about things like how YouTubers are ruining Austin, how Californians are running Austin, how Austonians are ruining Austin, and how Austin is ruining Texas.
The big thicket with all its beautiful nature, Houston with all its ugly chicanos, the hills with all its uhh hills, the panhandle which is a myth and much much more!
This is not an articles and happenings thread so just dumping articles about Texas in here is not it's main focus but it's certainly appropriate to talk about Texas appropriate news.
This thread is also for Texas culture! Cowboys, rodeos, kolaches, honkey tonk bars, mechanical bulls, Texan gun culture, chili, beef barbeque, and other such joys. Yes these things exist in other places and sometimes predate the state or country of Texas but also fuck you. Their ours.
You are also obligated to never speak fondly of California or New York in this thread for any reason.
There's many things to say about the lone star state. Many wonderful towns and cities and people and places, as well as many extremely interesting events that happen here. It's one of America great cultural and political hotspots, and here's where you talk about them!
