Wyoming. Corrupt, cold, ugly if you’re not rich, and full of morons who do things like thank coal workers for their service.
Who deserves the thank you more- coal workers or police officers?
Most people’s politics (left-oriented as well - your “scientific rigor” is actually rather sparse and inadequately supported [just look at how often we actually fund follow-up studies]) are virtue signaling. People tend to work backward from what the in-group already assumes. No big deal - it’s just collective problem solving staged in a cannibalistic system. So, to answer your question, seemingly equal measure, though the weights change with social context.
thank coal workers for their service.

Any state with a GOP supermajority.
Hey now, Kansas isn’t so bad if you are white.
Oh wait.
Almost certainly Mississippi
I mean honestly if the words worst and state are in the question the answer is almost always Mississippi.
Mississippi doesn’t have enough character to be the worst. It seems to be bad in every way, but it doesn’t have the flair for actively destructive stupidity that make Florida and Texas what they are.
We drive through several times a year, starting in Florida to Alabama. The poverty and ignorance is fucking heart breaking. Always glad to get back into the Alabama part of the trip.
Really enjoyed learning about NY queer culture by watching Paris is Burning so thought I’d check out Mississippi Burning to see how marginalised communities express themselves in the South… oh
That was set in the 60s. Mississippi isn’t nearly that bad. It’s bad, but it ain’t Mississippi Burning bad.
Oh yeah, sorry that was a bad joke. Those films couldn’t be more different!
Hey! You got me looking at Paris is Burning!
Phew thought we’d have to settle our dispute by vogue-ing!
“Paris Is Burning” is such a fantastic film.
It’s not up for debate. It’s Mississippi.
Mississippi is the worst state I’ve been to. I can’t imagine living there.
Idk I think Florida is going to give them a run for their money soon. Insurance can deny claims and coverage more easily now and FEMA’s been crippled.
I live in Florida and travel Mississippi several times a year. Night and day. And I’m in the panhandle where we’re poor, still head and shoulders above MS.
Was telling my wife that Pensacola airport is two or three times the size of Jackson’s, at their capitol. FFS, they can’t even manage clean water, in their capitol.
Alabama is actually pretty and pretty nice. You could teleport me to about any road in either state and I could call it for MS or AL. You can tell when you cross into MS because your tires start rumbling. Was wondering on the last trip how much those people pay for tires. Bet it’s big business!
Last weekend’s trip was fucking weird. Maybe I simply hadn’t noticed before, but the people were no longer friendly. Probably because I have long hair and my wife is Asian. At least black folks are still nice enough! Which flipped since I moved to the South 20 years ago. They looked at white people with deep suspicion.
I’m surprised nobody has said Idaho, given that it’s been known for its white supremacists lately.
The current state?
Ohio was pretty bad, so much so I moved back to Texas…
Oh no, I am sorry for you. Which city?
Suburb of Cleveland

Misery. Wait, hang on, sorry, I spelled that wrong. Missouri.

BTW, in the book, she hacked off a foot with an axe and cauterized it with a blowtorch. 🤢
right now, to the rest of the world it would seem that it’s the contiguous united ones…
AK is rolled into that, NGL. Leave Hawaii alone, though. 🤘🏼
Ohio, it’s a statistical fact.
More people from Ohio have become astronauts than any other state/territory in the world
Because when youre an Astronaut you can get as far away from Ohio as humanely possible. No one else has that kind of motivation to complete the rigorous training.
Even before astronauts were a thing. Ohio inspired two men to invent airplanes, because they had already traveled to the East Coast by then, and couldn’t run across the ocean to get further from Ohio. They had to adapt and learn to fly
Most astronauts only go about 250 miles up, the distance from Cleveland to Cincinnati. That said, Neil Armstrong got a lot further away from Ohio.
You’re seeing the glass as half empty, I see it as half full…
At one point in the orbit you are only 250 miles away from Cleveland.
But at the other end of the orbit that’s 250 miles and the entire planet earth between you and Cleveland. You get a chance to be the farthest human from Ohio, every rotation.
Surely Jim Lovell would have been the Ohian to get the furthest from Ohio? (Apollo 13 altitude record)
Being a Browns fan will do that to you.
“I went back to Ohio, My city was gone”
You went back to Ohio?!
You don’t understand. It’s not too escape Ohio. It’s because the void calls. It reminds one of home. The dark, unfeeling, lethal, soul crushing expanse of space reminds one of the home void. We want to bridge between the two. Bring together the V̵̮̈́ ̴̜͑ȍ̷̜ ̴͜͝i̶̲̿ ̴͉̊d̵̺͆

Warning, this is absolutely brain rot, but also hilarious
Anytime related to the “South”. West Coast is chill. East Coast is chill.
The east coast is definitely not “chill”
Too far down the east coast gets gross. What’s your cutoff?
Personally, I’d say North Carolina.
“The East Coast” generally means the north east. “The South” is all the states in the south eastern corner of the country, including the coastal states down there. (Where the borderline is between them depends entirely on who you ask)
I disagree. The east coast is quite plainly the Atlantic coast, including part of the South. If you mean Northeast, just say that.

Well huh… I guess you mgiht be a bit wrong.
Edit: To further clarify, everyone in the actual region calls the coastal states the east coast. That includes New England and the Southern states that touch the Atlantic Ocean. I say this as someone who has lived in every coastal state except for Maine and Florida. So if you try to use “the east coast” to refer to New England, at least in the region you’re talking about, people are going to think you mean the states on the coast…
Any of them that make up the southern border. They are almost unilaterally shitholes that would cut off their arm if it meant the “right” people suffer.
Leave New Mexico off that list. While not perfect, they sure have been knocking it out of the park recently. It’s stunningly beautiful too
Arizona is also beautiful. Unfortunately, it also has Pheonix.
And Kari Lake.
Before or after the Breaking Bad era? (/s)
Absolutely Mississippi. My wife has family in Meridian, MS and I shudder thinking about being stuck there my whole life.
New Mexico
Insane crime, just as expensive as California or Colorado.
Seriously
don’t come here, i mean go there.I’ve actually gone to new mexico and like it. Granted, mostly going to the national parks
The federal land parts without any locals, you mean?
Albuquerque was ok but I don’t think I stayed long enough to properly judge it.
Shhhh
For sure man, I felt the same way.
I used to work at a call center for a nation wide company.
The answer is absolutely Kentucky. There is really no comparison.
You can’t just fire off an entirely subjective opinion and not back it up with anecdotes.
It’s been 12hrs. I’m thinking they intend to. 😅 FWIW, I agree with you.
At this point I’m certain the guy is from Kentucky, and just proved his point like a boss.
Only logical explanation, really
details or gtfo
Depression
Well I can say from experience that after 2 decades of it you just feel “normal” because depressed has become your normal!
My smart watch likes to remind me frequently that I had a “stressful” day and to try to do better tomorrow. I’m like “bitch this is my baseline. Lower your expectations.”
Judgy li’l shit, ain’t it.
