Ask Lemmy

Oklafuckinghoma. Heat, tornadoes, ice storms, earthquakes, hail and some of the dumbest, most entitled Jesus-humping maga fucks in the country.

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

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

There is no universal, objective answer. It depends who you are, your financial situation, your political views, etc.

That said, the states that suck the most for the most people are conservative places with lots of rural poverty. Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Oklahoma, ...

Any state with a GOP supermajority.

Mississippi and Alabama tend to compete for the worse state top spot

Nobody saying Florida? Swamps, gators, slowly sinking into the ocean, home to way too many grumpy old people and crazy drug addicts (see Florida man) and Trumps shitty golf club. Also some of the absolute biggest peices of shit for politicians- DeSantis, Rick Scott, Gaetz ect

Florida. Heat, humidity, stench of water from the sprinkler systems, lousy coffee from the crappy drinking water, most jobs literally don't allow you to work OT. Many only hire 32 hour people. Terrible drivers, especially all the Qtip bitches that should've stopped driving 20 years ago. Redneck Nation. Massive POS politics.

Fuck Florida.

The current state?

Almost certainly Mississippi

Anytime related to the "South". West Coast is chill. East Coast is chill.

the state of denial that half the county is in that believes orange shitler will help them.

I used to work at a call center for a nation wide company.

The answer is absolutely Kentucky. There is really no comparison.

I think all states probably have ok cities in them somewhere, and that it depends on your preferences but I would never live in Alaska.

And all states have downsides too. Mississippi and Oklahoma have the worst schools. Florida and Texas have crazy politicians. Wyoming doesn't want you there. Colorado has angry ranchers and pretentious yuppies. California has Bakersfield.

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.

By the numbers, probably Mississippi. Lowest life expectancy, highest infant mortality rate, second highest poverty rate...being ranked 39th in education actually seems to be a bright spot for them.

South Dakota

Wyoming. Corrupt, cold, ugly if you're not rich, and full of morons who do things like thank coal workers for their service.

Depression

All of them!

Probably Mississippi, Oklahoma, or West Virginia

And with all the MAGA turds that moved to Florida and it’s terrible government it’s gotta be close to those top 3

poverty

State of Emergency. Because its either Zeus/Poseidon being mad at us (aka: Hurricanes), or it's martial law... and that means they're rolling in the tanks, it would be 100x worse than even the darkest day of the current US admin so far.
