I live in Texas and let me tell you I believe I know exactly how you feel. A lot of people's entire perception of this state is based on agitprop headlines they consume. To the point where the other day, on HN, everyone is an expert on Texas energy production and policy desperate to dunk on the state based on a headline about a temporary spike in wholesale energy prices.

But if I live here, then I automatically hold a “Texas energy production expert” card, right?

Actually, surely it’d be a badge. Anyway, I automatically get the badge… right, pardner?

I hear you, buddy. Though this place is generally a pretty good spot to find at least a few folks looking for conversations like that.
