I'm lucky to have a job where I can work from anywhere, and about once a month I check out different cities/states to move to so I can see how much better people outside of austin have it. but honestly most major cities that are worth living in are all overpriced, so do I even want to live in america anymore?? my lease is up in march so I guess we'll see 🥲

anyone have any affordable city/country suggestions? I'm all ears 🙏

I live downtown in a mid-sized Wisconsin city and work 100% remote and have really been considering moving lately. This city is becoming very unaffordable. 1 BR apartments two years ago were in the $700 range; now they are well over $1k. But somewhere cheaper means somewhere in a small town where there are MAGA people everywhere, or in the country where I wouldn't necessarily feel safe as a single woman. Nothing really feels like the right call.

I’m in a small city in the South and I’m getting priced out now. Even MAGA country ain’t safe.

I'm torn because it's good that someone with a platform is bringing attention to the housing crisis? But also like uh.... is Grimes really the best mouthpiece for this issue?

No. The answer to this will always be no.

Wait, didn't she say a few months ago that he was forcing her to sleep on a mattress in a shack, eating stale peanut butter sandwiches and sucking on bones?

She needs to keep her lies straight.

Well, if he was making her ass do all that while with him why would he kick in for a house now? I smell lies!
