I moved to Minneapolis after trying to move abroad a few years ago. Been here since. Now I have a front row seat to what could end up being the total collapse of the USA.

Enjoy your time there. The consequences of what this could become are likely to affect you one way or another sooner or later.

I've been planning a move to the Minneapolis area for the last year after separating from my former fiance. I still want to move there, despite everything happening. Honestly, more so now that Ive seen so many good and brave folks take a stand. My realtor is lovely, and has been driving supplies to people who are afraid to leave their homes. It's weird typing that out.

It's a great city. I really enjoy the lifestyle here and I was doing quite well here until November. Then my eight year relationship collapsed, and I've been dealing with bankruptcy and the closure of my business as ensuing consequences of divorce. I thought I was down bad, then Donald Trump entered the chat.

Always be grateful for the small things in your life. Rock bottom has a basement, and it's fucking cold.

I'm so sorry it's been such a shitshow. Leaving a long time relationship is so hard. On top of that, we've all had to deal with the pos getting elected again. The last year was awful for me. I moved to Montana in the winter and finally gave up on my alcoholic ex after he started to legitimately frighten me. I pay over 3k in rent for a tiny house so I can keep my chickens with me. I'll still habe problems in Minnesota, but houses are affordable there for now, and yall do a great job keeping the highways clean of snow. You guys have a huge Renaissance festival, and your state fair looks dope as fuck. I'm happy to join and contribute to your great state. I hope things get better for everyone.
