we had an extended 2 hour conversation that was basically a screaming match about "stupid maga texans" and the texas "government." She and hubby had moved and retired to Seguin a few years ago, and we were catching up on how much we detest this maladministration. She thinks along your line of thought, Chi... but she's caught on the fringes, trying to do what she can do to survive and help those around her, all the while entertaining thoughts of assassination squads of patriot americans taking back our democracy. For some, this flooding was just icing on the cake of evil... many, like my sil sunk all their money in their retirement "dream" home... she's native... and now truly see how evil the state has become to those not in maga, and even to those in maga, but maga won't open their damned eyes and see how they've been played and the price they're paying for their bigotry and hate.

Over a hundred dead, as many or more still missing... all to "own the libs"? What small mind thinks like that? surely maga has given up all thoughts of an afterlife (if there was one, as they declare). Sis and I are at wits end. I used to call KS home of birth, and TX home of heart. Now, I won't step foot back into Texas... anymore than I'd visit Florida.
