The Right Kind Of Pride For The Times?

by Travis Mateer

To outright say a white man like myself should publicly claim to have pride in one’s Caucasian hue is a real David Duke thing to say, but since I just finished watching a Spike Lee joint about a BlacKkKlansman, well, I was reminded that with the RIGHT white man, you can do anything!

You mean like coming to the rescue of a struggling ALPHA who probably thinks LION when the word PRIDE comes up?

Words are fun, but taking action can be EVEN MORE fun–even if that action is picking up trash from an over-flowing trash can, which I documented in yesterday’s post. Is this because I take PRIDE in my community? Is that allowed? Or is this the only kind of PRIDE Missoula will tolerate?

I think flags are cool, but until I have something to fly from behind the hedge, a few pieces of wood and screws purchased for a dollar from Home Resource will have to do the trick. If Aaron Wagner’s spirit animal is Andrew Tate, then mine is MacGyver!

The previous blanket-sign didn’t seem to work very well, so I’m glad I TOOK ACTION and found a fix. I’d also like to find, and train, some helpers, and those helpers will need a name, something to identify with. Also, it’s important to be COOL, and based on my study of the occult, kool kids like to put K’s in things where they weren’t previously, like MAGICK!

I hope the Kraigslist kreativity I honed at the University of Montana will ensure I find the RIGHT kind of rekruits for my klub!

If I’m able to stand-up a trash battalion to secure this property in Missoula, perhaps our struggling alpha, and his pals at AXIA, will leverage their Brandan Fugal power to revive the condo dreams for Missoula’s riverfront.

I don’t really care if the real estate juice of Brandan Fugal works out or not because all these dudes are playing developer in Utah, far from the nice Hip Strip view I have from the back of my tailgate. Isn’t this a nice view?

If I start getting recruits this week my first test will be to see how they respond to the kind of language that would put an elected official on a fainting couch (if we still used that kind of practical furniture).

The problem, though, is that I don’t have a piece of furniture like this to tell someone to go and have a time out in order to THINK about why they’re triggered, so I guess I’ll have to get creative. Since I found a sign within my TAAAAAZ that has already been modified, it was suggested that I use the spot around this sign for a time-out spot. Let’s call it the KONCENTRATION KORNER!

What would Wags and his fellow ALPHAS think of all this? I don’t know, but maybe I’ll get a chance to actually TALK to this developer about his plans for this piece of PREMIER real estate in Missoula, Montana. What do you say, guys?

If you appreciate my unique style and approach to determining what’s happening in my community, then please consider donating to Travis’ Impact Fund (TIF). Running an autonomous zone takes RESOURCES, and with your help, this spot will be TRANSFORMED!

Thanks for reading!
