I had to drive like 3-4 hours to get anywhere and back home, its hot, no winter for the most part(and when there was, any plans I had that involved leaving the house had to be canceled), power grid is shit and has way too many rolling blackouts. Internet service was abysmal, hot trash. The MAX speed I could get was like 10Mbps down. And then there's the political climate... Yea fuck that I'm never moving back. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ericisshort@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago I also had a similar experience in Texas. permalink fedilink source parent
