Was he any good?
Comment on Colorado’s governor vetoes landmark ban on rent-setting algorithms
match@pawb.social 3 weeks agoi played league of legends with him when he was a representative as part of his outreach to constituents. he has taken a hard billionaire turn as his net worth is approaching 0.5 billion. it is actually really sickening seeing him change like this, i used to be the biggest fan of Gay Nerd Governor.

Tragically, he was a competent maokai support (we had a Rammus who was main tanking)

Colorado has effectively become a joke of a state where there are only two groups of people: peons who live here at the behest of major companies, and people who can afford a $1M minimum for starter homes in the middle of nowhere. Even in bedroom communities and small towns without real stores or services nearby, little bungalows go for $1M and vacant quarter acre lots go for $200k.
Sad as it may be, Colorado’s governor has no point in being a man of the people. There arent really normal people left here to be a champion of anyways. Except maybe some of the plains towns where they will hate the governor for not making this place identical to Texas anyways

We had a burrito place open up nearby that does “Colorado style” smothered burritos. They suck, and people left reviews about how he is fucking up the historic district of our town with his overkill flags and his really shitty food. He didn’t like that, and is actively harassing people who leave bad comments on his business. Dude got real mean real fast when he got called out, I wonder if it’s just a Colorado thing at this point to be a prick.

Any burrito that sucks is not a true Coloradan style burrito. Burritos are like the premiere food item of Colorado as far as general quality goes
Odds are the guy is not a Coloradan. There arent many actual Coloradans. Colorado has never had more natives than immigrants at any point in its entire history as a state

This makes me sad, from someone who was planning to move to your state.

Colorado us dope don’t listen to their negativity. They’re over exaggerating. Def not perfect but it’s better than so many other places.

Honestly if you love Colorado its worth considering moving to Kansas or New Mexico, in my opinion. Better to live a normal life within a spitting distance of the mountains than it is to try and make it living in the hellish economic environment of the mountains themselves. All the good aspects of living in the mountains are basically unavailable to you unless you are a millionaire.
So many people working three jobs to stay afloat out here, there is no time to have any quality of life

I live in Oklahoma, Kansas or New Mexico wouldn’t be any better. I was thinking of moving to Colorado and live in a camper until I built of the funds to buy and off grid property. I own my home in Oklahoma (its not much we got lucky and bought it in 2018) but I hate it here but love mountains and enjoy my time I spend there. I been to Yellowstone three times and would to live near there but jobs are not plentiful and there spots that have nothing for hundreds of miles.

no clue what this dude is talking about, recommends Kansas over Colorado? As someone who has lived in both states, Kansas can go die in a fire.

I know people who live there and I remember guy bragging and begging me to move to the area because he had no local friends. After showing me cheap housing in the area, he couldn’t show me any jobs. Plus I been through the state. Is miles of flat nothing.
I want to be in the mountains dude trying send me to flat places or deserts like WTH.
