Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option.

The middle of nowhere where nobody really wants to live has some really affordable places to live.

Indiana, for example, has whole houses under 100,000. Like to own them. And they aren’t even condemned!

Around me a 2br apartment is around 900 at the moment. You can still find one bedrooms for around 550-650. Not very good ones but housing is housing.

Problem is there’s nothing to do, very little good employment, and you’ll never make good money, ever. So if you move to a depressed area, or are unlucky enough to have been raised in one, you’ll probably be there forever, because everywhere else costs a lot more than whatever your nest egg amounts to.

If everyone has the mindset there would be no cities with anything to do. Real estate thrre is cheap you could buy a house and open a bar or board game cafe pretty easily.
