Most places with sizable colleges are generally more open just because of the youth.

Just a reminder: shitty behavior isn’t limited to one party. Dems shouldn’t stick their heads on the sand, but it seems they have. Shame. Nobody has integrity anymore above us simple commoners.

There's pockets of very liberal areas between both big cities. You just gotta do your research, which OP seems to be doing right here.

Yeah my and my bf never hold hands. And people look at us weird sometimes for simply shopping together. But I don't feel particularly unsafe, just judged. Someday we'll work up the courage to hold hands around the city, and then maybe work our way out to holding our hands at Overlook, etc.

If you can’t sled down it, and pick up some good speed, it’s not a hill.

PS- I hope he and every other Trumper get cancer and die slowly from it. Not too quickly- long enough to suffer and then just quick enough before they can do something dumb and vote in another white nationalist.

I don’t have a decent answer, but I just want to say that I love your username.

Lake Raystown Resort) has a little horseshoe of lakeside villas that I’ve used for huge family gatherings in the summers. There’s like 25 of them and they comfortably sleep four people each.
Pretty affordable off season.

Being trans is not a sexuality. Being trans or genderqueer has to do with your gender and how you feel on the inside when it comes to that. Sexuality is who you're attracted to sexually, romantically, etc.

Shapiro beat him by 15% of the vote. That’s unheard of in modern politics. The fact that he didn’t take that as a lesson learned shows just how out of touch he is.

Moved from Westmoreland county to Holiday, Florida in March of 2017. Moved back in June of 2021. Loved Florida and the people for the most part but also hated everything about it. Insane amounts of traffic the summers were brutal. The pay was shit and the bills expensive. Idk how anything making less than 6 figures enjoys living in Florida honestly. For me it was constant stress over money. I was paying double for rent there compared to what I pay on my mortgage up here. And I couldn't buy anything worth buying in Florida because I made so little and the home prices were through the roof.

>the population is shrinking pretty quickly, and lots of downtowns are filled with mostly empty shops.
Sadly common place no matter where you go in PA. On the other side of that coin, at least entire neighborhoods aren't being bull dozed to build new 500k condos where they can fit four units where one house was previously which was common in Seattle and San Diego when I was there.
Honestly that's the most depressing thing for me being back in this state, I just feel like all the momentum is elsewhere. There's a "land that time forgot" sort of energy, although still comforting in its familiarity and I do appreciate the local history.
The rural areas are just not super sustainable and too far removed from city hubs. It's funny but I sometimes forget where I live until I want to go out and try some new restaurant and realize there are no new restaurants to explore!

Trans isn’t a sexuality, it’s related to gender. I get what you’re saying, but it’s not as easy to hide “being trans” or what if someone assumes I am. I’ve been harassed even in more “liberal” states and in todays climate I have to prepare and assess situations for my own safety.
