It was like I did a time warp, place was like something from a science fiction double feature ... oh and there was a lotta riff-raff.

Only had a few interactions with some locals, but they were all super red and trump through and through. The racism is hidden and couched behind fake smiles.

This is Texas, racism is everywhere. It is only getting worse now.
