    think you’re ignorant or a dullard for not wanting the same things they do.

    I encourage this because the more people who think this way the fewer people will want to live out in the boonies which means less light and noise pollution and no NIMBYs whining about the way my pigs smell.

      I’d kill to live out in the boonies. But it’s hard to find a job out there if you’re in certain fields, or a rental. Unless you can afford to buy, you can’t live in the country. I live in the suburbs and my rent is still insane. I’m trying to pivot to a better paying career where I can work remotely, but I can’t do that overnight. Trust me, I hate living where I can hear people. All I want is to someday be able to walk outside into my own damned yard and not stare someone else in the face, but I have neither a yard nor privacy.
