@aldeka The sun/heat seems like a top reason to move. It's one of the things that's a draw for a lot of people, so if it's a negative for you that's definitely a reason to GTFO ASAP.
@aldeka I guess it depends why specifically you want to move... I’m primarily feeling that housing is just so prohibitively expensive that it takes over everything. That’s a reasonable reason to move elsewhere in the country but not a good reason to leave the US... but if you’re considering Norway, you’ve got other reasons in mind.

Roko's Basilisk is a prime example of Poe's Law because I am pretty sure the author was just taking the piss but now it's a serious thing
@aldeka out of bay area, maybe :( I'm thinking that too.

@aldeka the "fog" yesterday was still smoke, so that could be why the airlines were skittery
@aldeka the rain is saving us from the horrible weather. Today is the first day with breathable air

hey bay area friends: do any of y’all have a psychiatrist you feel comfortable recommending? need someone with experience with PTSD, bipolar II, and possibly ADD. should have base level awareness of trans issues, but that’s less important overall. this is ok to RT, pls DM me

Some toots you enthusiastically favourite, and some you scroll past, sigh, and scroll back up to shamefully hit that star.

"I wonder," said the robot, "do you think I am human?"
"You feed me, and stroke me, and you are warm to sit on," said the cat.
"Does that make me human?"
"No. But tell me, do you enjoy my company?"
"I do," said the robot.
"That is all I ask of any human," said the cat.

It sucks here
I was debating buying tickets to somewhere, just for the weekend. It's expensive though. Probably just going to literally not leave the house all weekend, which also sucks
