    I think all states probably have ok cities in them somewhere, and that it depends on your preferences but I would never live in Alaska.

    And all states have downsides too. Mississippi and Oklahoma have the worst schools. Florida and Texas have crazy politicians. Wyoming doesn’t want you there. Colorado has angry ranchers and pretentious yuppies. California has Bakersfield.

      Alaska. Remote, expensive, so cold your car’s tires freeze with the flat spot they had while you were parked so you thump thump thump down the graveled roads until they stretch out, and to paraphrase @poccalyps, ‘ice storms, earthquakes,… and some of the dumbest, most entitled Jesus-humping maga fucks in the country.’

            ah, the good old days.

            as a young Canadian at the time, that was one of the introductory events to the world of politics, for me

            to think that back then that was the craziest shit coming out of the US, and compare that to today

      Urban areas are typically more “blue” as they’re populated by people who can read, more or less.
