The scene outside my gym has always been a little sketch due to proximity to noted party street Dirty Sixth. When I got back to Texas after the holidays it became REALLY sketch I asked the receptionist if she knew what happened. The city of Austin told my gym their private security (because yes you NEED that at this point) wasn’t allowed to intervene. “We don’t own the sidewalk”. The only acceptable instances for intervention are someone threatening a patron or straight up dying on the street. And so the crowd grows. Very Cool I pay for 2 sets of cops that can’t or won’t do the job. We are a very rich society that spends almost unimaginable sums of money on making life worse (on some axes)

Property tax covers what income tax does not in TX. As you can see by what happened to the private security money doesn’t fix this when the gov seems to actively hate you

I think the core of the problem are Californians — not Texans 😬 I think I would like Texas. Not whatever SF Lite this is

I have no idea what I actively want, really. Save for maybe Long term I want remote Michigan property. I am just like everyone else. I can only work in negation — I have no affirmative vision
