Austin was great when it was the only liberal and cultural oasis in TX, back when that meant something. When it was a Texas-sized college town. SXSW created a reality distortion field for tourists looking for the Good Life and since then theyโve been trying to graft a tech hub on top of a place that was never suited.

Have been listening to this take since I moved here in 2005 and it was bullshit then and it's bullshit now... No disrespect meant. I've moved around and come back. Austin is still a place with chill people. It's still a place teeming with artists/musicians. It's just now the whole world knows about us.

Hot, expensive, sprawling. More ramen restaurants tho, much culture, very progress. Whatโs Austinโs greatest cultural export in the last 10 years.
