I hope your community is doing better than the “ok boomer” generational dismissive mess that has taken a hold on mainstream America. It’s pretty gross how each faction could not care less about the other.

Too bad the SECB is more concerned with scoring points with urbanites…

“Representation matters, and we want to see more Native Americans running shit at DNR, but he opposes saving legacy forests from the saw, and he’s taking timber money, so we’ll pass.”

Thank-you Patrick for your work within DNR - here’s to hoping you make it through the primary!
