This is me right now. My job and cost of living is keeping me here for now. But I am making plans to move!

Google “bipolar definition.”
- having or relating to two poles or extremities. "a sharply bipolar division of affluent and underclass"
“Moody” could be considered offensive too if you want to take that route. I’ve been clinically depressed and could easily be described as “moody” on those occasions. I don’t make jokes like “Hey, tell Mother Nature to take her meds,” because mental illness is NOT something to joke about - as someone who has suffered mental health issues I’ll be the first to defend that. But bipolar isn’t a term exclusive to psychiatric realms.

Reply to comment by ulele1925 in Why don't UPS stores have automatic doors? I can't count how many times I am carrying a stack of packages and dropping them all trying to open the door. Surely I'm not the only one? Seems like of all places a UPS store would be the most convenient place to have automatic doors 🙃 by Many-Map5137
Development control over inanimate objects?

I’m not moving until I have plenty of savings. The low cost of living is why I’m stuck here

I definitely don’t hate it here, but I’m planning to move this year, don’t you worry.

Reply to comment by Khulric in Springfield desperately needs more than one 24 hour pharmacy. by Digital-Latte
I had a medical emergency on Christmas Eve and was thankful that a 24-7 pharmacy exists. I would never have complained about a wait time.
I can't even imagine getting this worked up over a two hour wait.

It’s an adjective that also happens to describe a medical disorder. Take a look at how bipolar is used in chemistry for another example.

Because it’s a black hole.
Plus, if you try to leave, you always, always end up back here. It may take 5, 10, even 20 or more years. But you’ll be back.

Bipolar is an adjective.

$$$$$$
If I could move I would do it. But I would need 3 months rent up front, a new job, a safety deposit on rent, money to rent a truck, time to pack and fill that truck, manpower to move the things into and out of the truck, and plenty more I'm forgetting
And I don't have kids. If I did then I would also need to find a good school district, do that paperwork, and have a million more things that cost money to cover

The “This school sucks” mentality seems to be a theme in the Midwest. I’m also from Missouri, but live in Denver. People are more engaged Denver, but also no one is from Denver. Lol🤷♂️

Walgreens is shit. I work in the health field and Walgreens is literally one of the worst pharmacies not only in our area, but in the states as a whole.

I've lived in all of those places, and the best to me has always been places where fast food is 30+ minutes away. Cities the size of NYC or even STL/KC shouldn't exist in my opinion.. Nothing bigger than Springfield. Its the perfect size.. Just don't live closer than 30 minutes away from it

It goes so much deeper than that, but exactly, what do you know?

Also, like 5 dollar sushi rolls that you can sit down and eat until like midnight. So it's got that going for it.

You must not read the comments on this group much then.

That’s funny, I’ve noticed republicans are the ones to complain the most. Odd how your point of view can change the outcome.

The weather is NOT bipolar, please stop using that term as an adjective. My illness is not a descriptive word for fucks sake.
The weather changes frequently. Call it moody.

Do you know how much it costs to move?
