Like, I don't really enjoy airing all of my dirty laundry on here, but when I heard the idling diesel of a pickup parked against me at 9 p.m. for 10 minutes, I sort of knew what was coming.

It's an industrial zone, so tractors at that hour are unremarkable. Pickups, on the other hand ...

They finally headed north and clearly made a U-turn, because next thing I knew, I was hit. Now, you don't want to confront people in Texas. If they're willing to drive into you, guessing at their armaments is folly.

Something needs to be accelerated here. I've now been attacked. I didn't have that on my bingo card for the week, but that's pretty much everything. Musk killing the administrative state sucks, but this is not currently my main concern.

As someone who grew up in Missouri and has had countless guns pulled on me for defending my property, I guess I would have still gotten out and dealt with the situation there. No sense in being scared and abused. At least that's kind of how I feel about life on this planet. Maybe just get out of Texas? Or get a gun. I don't really have any helpful suggestions I guess. I am sorry that you had to deal with that though. That's fucked up.
