No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed.

Lived in NJ, now lives in TX, talks about CT like you know it. And yet, so wrong about literally everything.
No, that would be Florida. Always has been.
I don't know what your definition of "bigoted" is, but now that you live in one of the most racist states in the union and seem to love it there I think I have a small idea.
Vance is from Ohio, and HW Bush is from Massachusetts but moved to Texas after he graduated college.
So, you don't seem to know anything about anything.
I wish you luck in Texas though. It's fine unless you experience hardships of any kind. At which point you better hope your bootstraps are sturdy cause you won't get any help from the state whatsoever.
It's spitting distance from Queens, of course I know it. You can make it to Connecticut from New Jersey in less time than it takes to cross Houston. I can get lost on a mountain bike and end up in your tiny little Rayeon Acres business park of a state.
This is why you people are so insufferable. You're in a carbon copy of Levittown, but it's got a big sign that says "George Washington shat himself at the battle of Dickfuck Harbor on this very hill" so you think you're special.
CT types would certain know something about covering one another in shit.
