Made a trip back to the US for the first time in a couple of years. A few things that stand out:
- there are so many fucking ads everywhere
- infrastructure is crumbling everywhere I look
- cops cops cops cops cops. I saw more cops within a few hours of getting back to the states than I’ve seen in a few years of living abroad. Americans generally have no idea how hyper-policed they are.
