Top threads this week

  1. After the midterms I'm starting to wonder if moving to a blue state is just a better choice in terms of mental health?

    Maybe I'm just in a bad mood because my local economy isn't great. I stopped at a bar today to just have a drink before lunch because it's so hard to make any money doing sales work. I have to sit...

  6. How do you just move? Are you not scared?

  7. Colorado to… Michigan.

    Well, the time is coming up (in the next year or so) where we are deciding to stay in Colorado or move somewhere (looking like Michigan.) I have been here going on 5 years and my husband for 14....

  8. Eternal summer isn’t everything

    Everyone talks about how they could live in a warm climate all year every year. I think we all think that at first, but eventually realize it’s not necessarily the best always. Could you live in a...

  9. How much of a difference does a city actually make with dating?

    It’s easy enough to make armchair observations, but I’m curious about what differences people have actually experienced or observed between different cities, and what might be driving those...
