Retired dev in atx. Visit my linked in page, I'm not there
talking to my centrist 85 yo dad in Roseville I would say disgust masked with tepid words(ICE screwed up). hates protests but hates trump more and is struggling to make sense of anything they do(but smart enough to know).

Minnesotans in mid-winter doing their 'fuck you mother nature' outdoor activity have found a richer target.

i'm guessing between her own issues and dealing with the psychos at work she developed a relationship over time and probably it was the only therapy she had.

tbh this is very likely a 'pox on both houses' thing. projection/rationalization of worshiping politicians has long been used by them to describe d voters and Clinton, Obama etc.

lived in DFW for several years and its just a big metro with good, bad and a lot of meh. It really isn't a place that can be described in such generic terms. This piece is about as interesting as listening to some flower mound chud tell me what a shithole Arlington is.

jeffries is a tool but zohran would be out of his mind to do anything but this. he is going to need allies in high places and sometimes that just sucks.
