I left Austin to teach in Vietnam. I feel safer here and have no plans to move back to Texas.

Texas is a fucking hellhole. It’s one of the worst places I’ve ever been — if not the worst — and I’ve walked through very dangerous neighborhoods in Cairo. I’ve never encountered more aggressive rudeness than I have in Texas, and I never willingly go to that state if I can at all help it.

Texas is one of the most terrible places on the planet. God, what a shitty state.
