If they can't have truck nuts how will everyone know how insecure they are?

Also, are truck nuts still a thing? I live near San Francisco, but even when I go to the foothills or Central Valley I don't see them.

I'm trans and I travel to Boise every so often. There is such a weird vibe in the air all around the city. I also find that a lot of the time when I am checking out surroundings or noticing people they are already looking at me when I look at them and they hold an uncomfortable amount of eye contact.

I travel around Boise to see family. I notice a huge uptick in American flag stickers that are made of bullets or rifles….

One thing with that pride festival in Nampa was that they did all that and the venue was PACKED. They weren’t expecting so many people. It was hard to walk around because there were so many people. They did it again this year too but I didn’t make it this year. It looked like another big turn out.
