COVID-19 spurred more Americans to stay home. But this trend didn't start or end with the pandemic, research shows.

    America sucks so bad that I’d literally rather not leave my house

      Actually, most people just can’t afford to leave. With so few spaces being public these days you can’t leave your house without spending money you don’t have.

        Yeah that’s a better answer. Only reason I can leave the house basically at all is because (1) my parents pay for gas and (2) college is the only place I have to go. But my answer is true too; it sucks because everyone is too poor to leave.

          Yeah, churches are dying and there’s not a lot of community spaces. Especially out of the cold and heat extremes.
