As someone who has been all over the US, grew up in an extremely wealthy (and Republican) part of California, and moved to South Carolina for graduate school, be careful that you're not idealizing this place.

Texas was a slave state, and it shows today... demographically... The deep south is essentially an apartheid state. While there are no physical walls, there are economic and institutional ones. The result is vast swathes of urban and rural decay that you need to be at least moderately wealthy to avoid.

In my opinion, having lived in both, Southern states are quite simply poorly run. Republicans do not know how to govern, and even if they did, they are incapable of producing enough revenue to do it properly, because conservatives have been hilariously duped into believing that the taxation that fuels public services is evil. Be ready for crumbling infrastructure, terrible roads, and shitty schools. Of course you won't agree but that's my biased perspective.

I hope you are wealthy. Parts of the South, as well as parts of Texas, can be affordable. But they are affordable for a reason. Be ready for your kids to get gangbanged and have classmates dancing on their desks unless you can afford to send them to a private school or place yourself in a higher COL area. Who knows though, if you're coming from rural Washington, it might not be so different.

If you're a Trump supporter you'll probably love it. Be ready for endless conversations about trucks, deer hunting, guns, and other riveting topics.

Politics aside this is actually a pretty accurate assessment of the south. Speaking as someone who has also lived in both the north and the south

i seriously hope my life doesn't become so depressing that I need to write some loser ass blog post about "the liberals" and how "i'm moving to texas" on a elf simulator forum

didn't click, but fyi, evolutionary biology is kind of panned in the academic community for being largely made-up narrative creative writing that only possibly describe the path of the great dice game.

I've been all over the country too and concur with Lune. You are moving away from White people, my "right wing" genius

moving from WA state to TX. FOR HIS KIDS. gives me the shivers to contemplate lol. Your kids could have been friends with a Wozniak kid in school but I guess John T. Roughneck's spawn is better for their future, what with the reduced amount of gay. Better put fancy locks on your doors, it's back to home invasion country. And the blacks in the south love to slice up a pretty White face after/during the rape so keep an eye on your wife and daughter once she hits 12. I assume you are ignorant of the ruthless race crime of the south and southwest and I sincerely hope you are spared a touch by it. I've had close friends raped, mutilated and murdered. And the murder rate's up. But so is the gay, so I respect ur decision.

bahahah oh dear lord. Evolutionary biology is panned in the "academic community", according to person whose entire identity depends on that being true. Richard dawkins doesn't know jack squat, buddy! He said a thing that offended one of my socio-political sensibilities, so the entire centuries-long field is DEBUNKED

Yeah, cool. Go tell darwin how wrong he is about demisexuality or whatever. My 28 year old gender studies professor told me that darwin is super wrong. Good god we are doomed as a species.

There's a big gap between your forum personality and your stream personality.

Dawkins is (well, was) brilliant. Selfish Gene changed my life as a scientist. However I would define Dawkins as a molecular biologist and "the father of evolutionary biology" -- I wouldn't confine him to the ebio thing. Ebio, particularly the pop-explanatory ebio you might see on YouTube weighing in on gender wars stuff, tends to be looked down upon in the harder-science community as it's comprised of convenient easy narratives which are not typically falsifiable, while being a substantially easier academic track than hard biology or chemistry which would impart the same info. Think nurse vs doctor. It's a far cry from coining a very important piece of vocabulary and putting into words a concept that allows many people to abstract reality into a way more mathematic type of matrix, to say "men hunt & women nest" in fifty ways and get involved in pay gap conversations, instead of taking your education in something closely related but of substance, dont you think?

It's actually a bit of information from a hard-science ivy league education i'm sharing with you. Not sure why you address me like a CC gender studies grad. Did you type me based on my gender identity? Can you try and engage me with a little more granularity please? I'm pretty far right and my hair's not pink. We've engaged enough that you should know this by now, but as I've learned in so doing, there's a bit of a bird brain thing going on there so I will try to limit my indignation.

I'm just a highly educated str8 normie who happens to be trans, not your disgusting gender studies boogieman you dumbfuck hick. Guess what? I don't even know what demisexual means. Bet you do, fagg0t. You're completely blinded by bigotry even after interacting with me here for months. You're an honest-to-goodness piece of shit in addition to being downright stupid, which I know you know you are.

I'm also further right than you, which means I don't eat from a fox news trough and type everyone not drinking the kool-aid as a liberal because I see what you are. Not conservative in any sense of the word. Just a member of the Hate Party trailing an intellectual leash held by globalist billionaires. Eat shit and drink piss you miserable little fuck. I swear that I can feel that you're 5'8" through the text btw, let me know if I'm wrong.

Good lord relax. I could not possibly care less how you identify sexually, it's a free country, and I don't believe in bullying people or making fun of them for who they are. I also don't believe in withholding criticism when somebody makes an absolutely absurd claim, like the one you made that evolutionary biology is somehow not a respected, widely tested and centuries-long field of study. That is an absurd premise. I'll mark this post down under 4d chess trolling because I can't believe you mean it. Dispense with the anger, it's not helping.
