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)

haha today when i hopped onto the bird app real quick i saw a thread about how living in texas sucks or something and it reminded me of you (was explaining the dif taxes) they touched on that 🤓

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
