I'm not really big on crowds either. I like variety - sometimes a party, sometimes I wanna be to myself. Burbs offer that more flexibly by letting me just drive to the city whenever I want social action. But in all seriousness, European cities, the safer ones (not london or paris) have quite a different atmosphere to them. A lot more friendly people who go out of their way to help you and a greater feeling of peace and comfort. It's not quite the same as American cities if that makes any sense. Then again I only visited European cities for vacation, not work.

Pros and cons to both but I think I prefer the burbs more.. at least compared to American cities. The major con to American cities are the people themselves - rabid liberals, crime and density. I've traveled to a bunch of European cities (Athens, Vienna, Barcelona, etc) and it's something you absolutely have to experience at least once in your life. The culture, the architecture, fine dining, everything being 2 blocks away. You can have quality cities, just depends on who lives in them. Likewise, the burbs - while safe, peaceful, quiet and a perfect place to raise your family does have a con of everything being an hour away and rarely anything ever happens.

This was when I was doing my 3/4 year med school rotations at the hospital. I got by with a last min sublease and airbnb so I saw a bunch of DC. Like I said, the VA part of DC is really, really nice but the cons are it's a dense packed shithole like every other city so it is what it is.

Yes you are right, colors were off. I couldn't find a high res one that included the suburbs. Fixed.

In Tyson's Corner or Alexandra, I really doubt it. I'm anal as fuck about my car and did a lot of research before moving. In MD, it's more of a possibility. Just park further away. But if you care about your car, remove any pro Trump flags or stickers before leaving it obviously.

Yup. I forgot to mention the firearm rule. Absolutely NO concealed carry in D.C.

Also, when you enter Virginia, highway cops are the second worst in the entire nation, right behind commiefornia cops. They will cite you for BREATHING THE WRONG WAY. Do not even think about going 1mph over the limit. They are EVERYWHERE, RADARS ON.

Oh man I did it ONE TIME and I'll never forget. And even if you are blind, Siri will let you know you fucked up by announcing MLK Jr. Blvd.

Southwest DC has come a long way. Plenty of development like you said. Huntington Metro is fairly nice. Airbnbs all around in Alexandria, not too many cheap hotels though but it's a decent pick at last minute.

Yup. Chantilly has a stupid crazy amount of hotels and motels - all clean and sub $100 / day. Rt 66 gets backed up pretty quick though during rush hour. Beltway is usually the quickest way around DC but I'm expecting crazy traffic so keep the backroads in mind.

Virginia is def better than Maryland but for the people coming from up North, Virginia is probably gonna take another 2 hours to reach with the massive amounts of traffic right now. I'd say take your chances with the Silver Spring or Rockwell metro.

Yah this. The fake votes are now mixed in with the real votes - dated envelopes thrown out, dead voters included, can't do anything about the straight republicans except Biden votes either. I'm still pulling for a Trump win, it's only what? A 12k lead? Big enough chance of finding enough fucked up ballots with a hand recount.

100%. Every time I go to sleep and every time I wake up and a dozen times throughout the day.

I have been having some doubts lately but I think back to the saying "always bet on Trump." Anything short of pro-Trump news today is blatant demoralization by a leftist shill. Trump is strategic af. They've been trying to stump him for the past 5 years and nothing has worked. Give it time. Have faith. We will pull through. Justice Thomas is excited as hell right now.

Reddit is now literally tumblr/digg 2.0. Left wing hivemind think only and most of them are just bots and paid shills. Only a matter of time before a mainstream alternative pops up and takes it place.

Reddit has been infiltrated a long time ago. It's just dying from a slow cancerous death that's become evident to more and more people. Better to just abandon it outright. Best thing we can do right now is play the election interference card and spread the word.

What's ironic is that when most people finally leave reddit, they'll spread out amongst different websites like voat, 4chan, etc and become even more radicalized. I hate how extreme and distant the parties have spread over the past few days but we are approaching the modern Wiemar Republic days.
