    connecticut is the worst imo

    i hate that we're stereotyped as only a bunch of rich white people with wicker furniture. we're actually by far the worst state for income inequality in new england, and potentially the whole country. we're also 40% poc.

    CT is where you go to see overwhelmingly white towns where every household makes 200k next to redlined cities with extreme poverty, decaying infrastructure and schools, and cop cars at every block. it's hard to fucking survive here, my mom was working overtime as an LP nurse raising my brother and i in a one bedroom apartment
