Tons of culture, it’s just all living deep underground near the earths core, where it’s still warm.

I think the cultural influences from Mexico should count. As far as food goes, Mexican food is some amazing stuff, but the American variations are different, yet amazing in their own rights. Tex-Mex, New Mexican, and Cali-Mex are some of my favorite spins on traditional Mexican food. Plus I think you’re already including Mexican influences with BBQ and rodeo.

yeah there’s a lot of baggage in saying there’s no culture. cuz that also ties into the whiteness discussion. whiteness is the de facto cultural vacuum, the hegemony that eats other cultures, the mainstream, the default. so portraying texas as a cultural vacuum is sort of erasing everything non-white about it.

cold daggers

Better than a dagger warmed by body heat, I suppose. Neither carried nor used it has gone cold to await being needed again.

So you’re saying they should secede from the Union and be an independent world superpower because they don’t need the rest of us, right? Right?

No, that’s ludicrous.

Give them back to Mexico.

What would happen if you divide Alaska in two equally-sized states? Texas becomes the third largest state.
