The States: Where We Wish Texas Would Secede Already

Belief perseverance is the concept behind, "I trust my 'alternative facts' and/or gut fee-fees more than your hippie-dippie librul facts and scientific studies."

Is that confirmation bias by another name?

They’ll all have huge coal rollers to try and pollute as much as possible

I saw someone compare rolling coal to a squid shooting it's ink when it's threatened. It made a lot of sense.
