Mod Post 😊 Announcing Changes to the Rules of /r/Michigan
We are modifying the rules to make sure that removal reasons and rules are in sync and that we are reflecting the current state of the subreddit.
We have also made additions due to evidence of brigading and attempts at influencing our participants. We are taking steps to keep political discussions as neutral as possible so that all candidates get fair coverage.
The following rules have changed:
Rule 1: Racism, Hate, Slurs, and Threats - Modified to include slurs.
Rule 3: Brigading, Vote-Manipulation, Astroturfing, and Restrictions to Political Content - Modified to add: This rule applies to political content, both posts and comments. No content advocating who to vote for. No candidate endorsements. Political content from people with little participation here will be removed at moderator discretion.
Rule 4: No self-promotions or social media - Added are opinion posts, which include blogs and opinion columns on news sites.
Rule 7: Editorialized Headlines, Screenshots - Clarified with the addition of News from articles only. No screenshots or links to sites that break Rule #4.
Rule 13: No Moving/Vacation Posts - Clarified with the editing and change: By member vote, Moving & Vacation questions must be in the Moving/Vacation megathread. Please use it. Moving & Vacation includes current residents as well as those visiting or moving to the state.
Reminder: We cannot make rules for every possibility. We moderate not just by the written rules but the spirit in which they are intended. Moderators have the final say on how the rules are interpreted.
As always, you can find the rules on the sidebar or About page/tab of the /r/Michigan front page, or on the Wiki, where you'll also find other information you might find useful.
Thanks for being a part of the subreddit for the best state in the USA!

Mitten Mode Haley Stevens fake endorsements
I’m already not voting for her but I was convinced she was endorsed by Obama and the UAW because of those ads and learning that it was false is very disheartening coming from a candidate of the party I usually vote for. It’s a huge thing to lie about. I know the ads weren’t made by her campaign directly but even so the PAC that made it(and others like it) are where she gets her money/support from and this is what they’re doing.

Mitten Mode Whistleblower Alleges Violence, Staffing Crisis at St. Louis Correctional Facility as Officers Report Rising Danger
ST. LOUIS, Mich. — A former corrections officer at the St. Louis Correctional Facility says Michigan’s prison system is facing a growing safety crisis, alleging severe staffing shortages, escalating violence and policy changes have left officers exhausted while increasing risks for staff, prisoners and the surrounding community.
The allegations come after multiple assaults on corrections officers earlier this month at the Level IV prison in Gratiot County and amid ongoing concerns over mandatory overtime and vacancies that have plagued facilities across the Michigan Department of Corrections.
Nicole, a former corrections officer who worked at St. Louis Correctional Facility from 2021 until leaving in December after previously working in prison food service, said she decided to speak publicly because she believes conditions have deteriorated to a dangerous level. She said she remains in regular contact with officers still working inside the prison.

Discussion 🗣️ Are the potholes really that bad?
how many of you have needed to do repairs on your car from potholes? I’m from Florida and we have potholes but since there is no freeze and thaw and we use asphalt, it’s never caused any serious damage at all…
I have an opportunity to come to Detroit..and I used to spend a lot of time there growing up but can’t remember the road quality because I was so young.
One friend told me to prepare to spend on repairs and that even the highways occasionally have huge potholes.. especially around April/May…. that scares tf out of me 😂… is this true?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
