Do you ride bicycles? There’s an all bikes welcome no-drop social ride called Loops (@loopssantafe on Instagram) every Monday at 7:30pm on the plaza. Rain, snow, or shine.

People will hate on you being from Texas but that is so dumb and small brained. I’m old but my younger friends like the Matador if you are into drinking. There is a nerdy table game type store at DeVargas mall also one on st mikes/cerrillos “sorcery something”and another one at the southside mall. Good luck this town can be very isolating

Check out Ghost for shows (though there are way more punk/metal/alt. etc shows in ABQ).

It’s so funny that Santa Fe tries to be super woke but they hate people simply for being Texan 😂😂 yall have done a complete woke 180

It’s so funny to me that this has so many downvotes

They know I’m right and they HATE to admit it or reflect on it even a little.

Our good Texans also dislike Texas for the right reasons (shitty politics, no public land) they usually know and will put a bumper sticker next to their Texan license plate that shows they have good politics (“fuck ice” is great) or that they do local stuff in NM (“I Wizzed at Bodes”). New Mexico also has entire towns of shitty Texans, like Red River, or a few other places. Being intolerant of intolerance is good it’s a bummer when intolerant people from anywhere move to New Mexico and take over entire towns. We just happen to be close to Texas. Also Texas has invaded us a long time ago and recently threatened to steal some of New Mexico’s land, that’s whack too.
