On vacation up north, too bad it’s supposed to be a record high for Christmas Day 😭 The rental is beautiful though and we hopefully ended up packing everything we needed. Hopefully festive drinking and dumb shit posts will start tonight 🩵

Michigan:
Is split in half
Two different cultures because the halves are divided by 5+ miles of water and we didn't build the bridge for a while
5-mile-long bridge
Turtle Island
Two different ways to spell Mackinaw and no one gets either spelling right
Cherry Capital
not to be confused for our actual capital, in which there is nothing interesting
"Yoopers" and "Trolls"
Has a gazillion lakes
One of the lakes is in the US's Top 5 most clear lakes
It's not one of the big ones though
Doesn't touch Canada at any point
✋👈 you are here
HOMES
The Toledo War is a thing that actually happened I cannot believe this how did this happen
Skeeters
Noseeums
We're both very redneck and also not at all it just depends on where you are in here ✋👈
👉 the UP
No one says "LP"
It's all Northern Michigan
No Southern Michigan that's also not a thing people say
"can't have shit in Detroit"
really weird interaction between the French, the Brits, and the Minutemen up here during the Revolutionary War. I don't remember what it was but it was Weird.
we all hate Ohio
no other state is like this. why are we like this.

"A column of cold air encircles you, rising slowly upward in the shape of a courtyard; bordered by cracked plaster, windows, seagulls perched on air conditioning units."
I did this months ago in a 4am depressive slump after finishing Disco Elysium and thinking about my hometown
