  • Vermont’s gonna be a rough one to move to, they have one of the worst housing shortages in the country atm. Maine might be a good pick, you may want to check out Connecticut too, that’s the one I’m leaning more towards. The towns are small, but close to one another so you get the benefits of a city with a more small town feel. Cost of living is reasonable, schools are good, pretty progressive govt. It checks a lot of my boxes and I get the feeling it might do the same for you.


  • If you want to stay on the east, New England, New Jersey, DC, Virginia(Virginia’s the weakest of these options). West coast: Cali, PNW, Colorado. Michigan gets an honorable mention due to the whirlwind of progressive legislation they’ve been passing lately. Along with the more favorable weather they will have long term as climate change destroys the rest of the country. Illinois is apparently pretty ok too but I don’t know much about the state.

    E: here’s a tool that helped me get started with my research


  • I’m from Florida, I work in public service. A lot of the people moving here from blue states are bigots who either got priced out of their home state or rich people who want to be bigger pieces of shit than they could from their original state. Sure, sure, anecdotes aren’t evidence or whatever. But it’s a pretty noticeable trend. Florida has gotten measurably shittier in every way in the last few years.






  • Good ventilation is key. Afterwards, if you’re still getting a strong odor find a comfortable respirator (ones with expiratory valves will be best for comfort). The apparatus itself doesn’t matter much. As long as it gets a good seal on your face. That usually means you’ll have to go without facial hair if you have any, otherwise it could cause leaks. It’s the cartridges that will be doing the work. I’d recommend a 3M P100 filter of some sort for best quality. 3M being the brand, P100 being the percentage of air that is filtered. If you have facial hair and want to keep it, a PAPR apparatus would be best. Source: EMT, we’re trained and fitted every year for N95s, respirators and PAPR.

    Edit: as others have said you’re probably better off just not being in the room while the printer is running. Getting respirators and filters can get pretty pricey
