A true review of Taos from an advertiser's perspective. Interesting, but believable as a young man born and raised in NM, though there no longer.

Straight up, the dude has been the beneficiary of the most dick-riding post-humous propaganda ever, second maybe only to Robert E. Lee or Jeff Davis.
Location: USA, Midwest and the Internet
So, We all gotta be more careful about our online bullshit going forward. Personally, I like to stir shit along with promoting myself professionally as an author. Due to that, Reddit used to be a helpful resource. Over the past two weeks since posting on the last collapse board there, I've gotten triple-banned when I've never been bothered prior. The latest cause was joking about the Iran nuclear situation by saying I hope a war breaks out so we can begin ignoring Washington. All this to say that the internet is rapidly becoming less the place to try stirring shit directly.
As for the midwest, times are getting rough; people are defaulting on cars, rents, and cards out this way and the state's services seem to be taking the same attitude, leaving trees fallen from windstorms for weeks or months, and sinkholes and potholes to the same fate. Additionally, the illegal reforms to the citizenship process have thrown my area into a good deal of chaos. Many of the local meat-workers in our region currently come from American Samoa and the Caribbean, among other Latin-settled areas much to the chagrin of both the federal administration and some of the locals (the locals are just angry they no longer have the work they need). Additionally, everyone is desperate for work, this week alone I've been approached with more requests for under-the-table work than I've ever received in this city. Lots more gunshots and sirens than usual as well, though I haven't checked the crime map, so I couldn't rightly say how much is self-defense and how much is the usual community stand-offs, business gotta business after all.
For me though, I've been setting up immigration plans with my sister and working on a garden and chicken coop for my elderly parents who do not want to leave the nation they were born in and grew up in. Unfortunately, as a writer, one can find damn near anything to distract one's self from what I should be doing, editing, and the issue with a fascist uprising? Lots of great material for a fiction author who focuses on anti-fascism in fiction. Anyway, hang loose y'all and if you were talking to a "greycomedy" on reddit, my bad, I got myself banned.
LBRP versus the Lord's prayer.
