    Arizona is a mixed bag, but I guess everywhere kind of is. They hire that crazy sheriff, that election craziness, and paint their lawns, but then do stuff like this.

      The influx of folks moving in from more expensive big city locations plus the general shift of young people rejecting conservative views even as they age is turning the state away from its traditionally republican voting tendencies as seen in recent elections.

        It’s nice to see it changing for the better, it’s hard to parse from the outside looking in though. A lot of the old school r’s still live there, ig.

          It do be like that (old ppl voting R). Plus for whatever reason they all want to be here before they die, so it’s a big stubborn aged community.

            In my experience with my aged relatives, they all feel extra cold now and either crank the heat up or move south.

              In the summer, “could you turn the A/C down a bit?” “why, you’re hot?” as it’s set to 85F…

      I said that was California that painted their lawns. I lived in Arizona for a couple years, and I don’t even remember seeing lawns. But I lived in Tucson. Almost everyone had a xeriscaped yard.
