If Minnesota wasn’t so damn cold it would be my first choice of a state to live

“We’re not going anywhere. What’s more: we’re expanding.”

Nearly a dozen of Minnesota’s foremost experts on gender-affirming care collaborated on this beautiful op-ed in today’s Strib. No paywall.

We're trying to move to Minnesota. We are actually looking forward to the cold weather (to an extent, at least), even if it will be an adjustment.

Summers are amazing and you can adjust to the winter. Plus with climate change, eventually it’ll be much milder.

LoL, -7 Monday day, -22 Monday night, that's without wind-chill factor. Counting the days until spring.

There are 2 seasons in MN.. "Winter is here", and "Winter is coming".

Come to Massachusetts. It’s a little less cold and we have @drscotthadland.bsky.social too!

Living in MN is the only reason I haven’t totally lost my shit. It feels like a safe place in a giant shit storm. And only a few hours from the Canadian border.

Having visited Mayo several times the past few years… this 100%

Like maybe I can just spend summers there lmao

Minneapolis in summer was just AMAZING so many people out and about enjoying the outdoors and river and absolutely everything. Didn’t have a chance to do one but there’s also apparently a summer pizza farm thing all over that sounds awesome

I will say this for Minneapolis, at least: it’s the city that’s best designed for its actual weather of all the places I’ve ever been. You can get awfully far using their skyway system without ever stepping outside to experience the cold.

This is actually a good point! I live in the south where the city comes to a screeching halt for even 2 inches of snow 🥲
