How does anyone motivate themselves to continue living in Ohio? (midwest.social)

As title. Ohio is a bleak, futureless shithole in a fascist empire that treats it like a frack-water dumping ground. Healthcare access is terrible, higher education has collapsed, industry has long fled. Christians and Fascists dominate basically every lever of power. Despite best efforts, I haven't been able to leave, won't be an option in the foreseeable future. Why should I bother getting up tomorrow?

Come to a good city that hasn't fallen to the fascists. Here in Columbus, we're fairly insulated from the psychopaths who don't care who they hurt. That stuff doesn't fly here. We actually have some compassion for our neighbors here.
