"I'm still big. It's the social media that's gotten small."
I'm feeling a lot better, actually, after Peggy spent the morning looking at Padmapper. NOLA is a LOT cheaper than I had been led to believe, and if we can figure out a few little orthocosmic things like insurance, we could actually put together a pretty good life there.
I'm gonna miss the locals a lot, but there's still a big reservoir of pain left for me in this city, and if it ain't gonna get drained... might as well move on.

I'll visit. But after that fucking Stranger article about local landlords (and apparently, most of the commenters on /r/SeattleWA) thinking poor people don't "deserve" to live here, I'm increasingly content to shake the dust off my sandals and let Amazon swallow this city whole. I wish the best of luck to those of you sticking around to fight the good fight, and maybe I'll be back someday, in stronger (and hopefully richer) shape, and actually be able to do you some fucking good again.
