Liberal states like California, with hella regulations, taxes, etc. More expensive.
Conservative states like Mississippi, with none of the above. Cheap cost of living.
I’m starting to think America is just too big to play together nicely. And the way our politics are playing out, a sane middle ground seems unlikely.
Maybe we’ll smear ourselves all over the land, which would force some common ground, more homogenous, dunno. I hope to have 30 more years on this planet, probably less. You kids, and mine, are straight fucked.
Do your best. I’m trying too, and I’m rooting for you.
“Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you’ve got a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies - "God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.”
Cost of living is the subject here. Think California is a paradise? Never been there, but it sounds damned fine. But don’t come back bitching about the cost of living.

But also things like no women’s body right, no lgbtq rights, rampant religion shoved down your throat, rampant bigotry, the war on trans leaning kids, etc…
Pick your poison.

that’s some enlightened centrist nonsense if you think California needs a middle ground with Florida
