Fuck yes Minnesota, thank you for actually passing meaningful legislation this year.
I very much owe someone an apology for having them move here but then getting an apartment outside of the cities. The stark difference between Robbinsdale and Coon Rapids still fucks with my brain. As soon as I can afford it, I have to move back closer to the cities.
Besides just feeling safer there, I miss being able to walk anywhere. I had really good local restaurants and microbreweries within a 15 minute walk. Had parks close by I could go chill by a lake and watch the animals. I got the state parks & trails plates this year so I can get in those now, but those all involve driving.
Up here? It's all chains and corporate shit. I really can't stand it. Part of what I need to actually let myself heal is getting somewhere that feels like home again.
