I really need to leave this housing situation. It’s okay 70% of the time but that 30%... and it’s still here. The Bay Area compounds my feelings of entrapment and hopelessness.

@vahnj the big reasons I stay are 2 parts it’s familiar to 3 too poor to move. The only time I actually want to be here is in redwood forests I can’t afford to live near.

@Leucrotta @vahnj that's understandable. :/ and the redwood forests... I do miss them, very much. Seattle has Douglas pines, which are okay, but they *definitely* don't feel the same.
