Yeah my mom especially has a hard time accepting that people with chronic illness didn't do anything morally wrong or right to get their condition. Like if only they ate better, or exercised more, they wouldn't have insert any illness & neurodivergence here

I still think there are so many adults out there that wholeheartedly believe in the Just World Fallacy. It's honestly baffling how many people have a hard time accepting that things just happen to people without any moral value being assigned to them.
It's definitely more expensive, especially for owning rather than renting (median house price is like $500-600,000) . There are more affordable neighborhoods scattered around the area but yeah monthly costs are pretty high. I personally felt the trade offs were worth it for me to move, but totally understand the cost being a big issue.
Highly recommend Colorado if people are seeking a blue state to move to in the US! The legal protections are some of the best, we have a super majority Democrat state government that's gotten even more left leaning under Trump, and there's tons of community for queer folks in Denver.
Agreed, I had a friend who every time it came up talked about how much he hated Taylor Swift. I kept trying to press him about what he didn't like about her, like the music, or the tours, or whatever.
And at the bottom of it he just didn't like the idea of a woman with wealth and power equal to her peers in the music industry
From personal experience working in DoD research, the amount of compartmentalization a lot of those people have drove me insane. I knew quite a few young earth creationists & fake moon landing believers when I was there. I definitely think a lot of those folks think that their military funding is safer under trump, and everyone outside of their field is a "corrupt leftist scientist"
I absolutely love the final climax & boss of lost legacy. It's so fucking fun
Had to stay at home with parents during COVID quarantine w/ Fox News on almost 24/7, you're absolutely right. Also the "token democrat" is so biased to agree with soft conservative points, it's frustrating how many people fall for that trick.
The animation quality dip this season has been especially noticeable, hell they have a couple scenes where it's static talking for several minutes (looking at you pancake scene) and nobody's moving. It's been that way since the beginning, but it's getting really old after seeing what shows like X-Men 97 can pull off.
