The joke is Ohio sucks. It’s an economic pitfall where people outside of Ohio see it as cheap and affordable then they enter and realize their money is damn near worthless now. Add to that the drug use and the fact that damn near everyone here wants to leave because it’s a red state acting blue it’s pretty easy to joke about

Yeah but that’s not even true. It’s cheap to live here and employers pay well, with lots of available work. Maybe in whatever area you live it’s rough but it’s pretty easy to thrive with very little education in the cities, I’m not sure why you think that someone’s money would now be worthless, it’s the polar opposite as your cost of living is going to be lower. I’m not sure what has you saying drug use is higher than anywhere else though, quick look at various studies show it’s about on par with the rest of the US. As far as people wanting to leave, I don’t know many but the ones that do are generally people that don’t apply themselves to anything and have a mindset that the reason their life is shit is everyone’s fault but their own. Sadly yes, we are a red state due to gerrymandering but that’s not a problem that can be solved by turning away intelligent people who are capable of shifting the imbalance. Do keep vocalizing the issue with this though because we need more attention brought to conservative corruption here, and good things are coming of it as we recently had some of them get locked up with sentences that weren’t a bullshit slap on the wrist which is cool

The Ohio class submarine is armed with 144 nuclear warheads on 22 ballistic missiles, each bomb with almost 500ktons of explosive power. It was named for it’s terrifying ability to turn any place on earth into another Ohio.

Do you mean 24 missiles? 144 doesn’t cleanly go into 22.

Ohio is a cosmic motif throughout space-time. You could travel across the universe and find a place that looks like Ohio. Also it fucking sucks.

It’s working, I’m already looking for apartments in Ohio. This is how you distribute the population in a country.
