Reply to comment by Necessary_Cat_4801 in What will the future of Vermont ski towns look like? by The_Idealist_Realist

Other red places also buy the homeless bus tickets to California, and the only reason they won’t ship them off here is exactly what you said. Clearly from this thread we can’t even agree on stuff because there are a few harsh realities Vermonters are unwilling to face and no one knows what the solution is. Someone here asked me why I just don’t move out if I don’t like it, to a more “walkable” place. It isn’t that simple, I didn’t feel like I need to justify myself to him but you know exactly what the problem is so I’ll tell you…I was homeless for 6 months during Covid. With a job/ decent income because of the crisis, and we weren’t the only displaced family…what I didn’t tell that guy who has since deleted his responses to me.. is that my husband and I ARE working on moving out. We just have to save up where money (a difficult thing to do in Vermont) And you bet I have some pretty harsh criticisms for how a lot of people are in Lala land here. I love this place, a lot…I just can’t keep living here and have a passable quality life anymore.

Two+ player card based:
Let's Summon Demons (current favorite)

Two+ player board games:
Ticket to Ride
Pandemic
Patchwork
Scythe (prepare for a 2 hour+ game)
Everdale (a 3D board game. Quite possibly the prettiest board games I ever played)
