I live in Tucson, Arizona, and I can, without a doubt, confirm that we desert dwellers are in the domestic epicenter of the Absurd Arena. This topic has gotten no play on Useful Idiots, but our exiting Governor is staking miles of shipping containers across federal parks and Native land in a show of total depravity. It's fucking crazy and a joke. Although, at a total of $95 million tax-payer dollars, the performance is far from a genuine comedy. If you all want to cover this, I can connect you with some players on the ground.

This is small, but I usually avoid social media disputes of any kind as I find them unproductive and they often make me irrationally mad inside my head at someone I generally like a lot. However, during times like this - When Matt Taibbi is getting blasted for being a "conservative" I think it's important to say stuff publicly, so, hopefully, others who are fearful to say anything feel like they have some camaraderie.
