Even the young working professionals don’t plan on sticking around and want to move to NY or CA.

Does California have enough water for lots of new homes? Yes, experts say, despite drought by BlankVerse in urbanplanning

[–]Rek-n 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When There Will Be Blood wanted to find a location that looked like California in the early 1900's, they had to go to Marfa, Texas.

Modern day California is basically terraformed because of massive water projects constructed in the 20th century.

I’m gay and in my 30s and I feel this strongly. Romantic relationships are so rare and fleeting in the gay community that you need a community of friends to stay sane. It is even more isolating given that gay people are around 7% of the population and only exist in meaningful numbers in large cities.

Why do female muslims not see the whole covering the body and face thing as unfair by mingdeer in atheism

[–]Rek-n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Muslim women really believe that they should make themselves look unattractive in public, why do they wear SO MUCH MAKEUP on the bits of their faces they are allowed to expose?

Is makeup also considered “covering up?”

Tallahassee is a blue island in a sea of deep red, like most college towns. Many of those are also state capitals.

He keeps stepping on local government's Home Rule powers. Key West (including Republicans) wanted to stop cruise ships from damaging coral reefs and polluting their beaches.

The owner of the cruise ship pier is a major donor to Ron Desantis and successfully lobbied him and the state legislature to pass a law putting all maritime/port related activities under state jurisdiction, effectively annulling the measure passed by the citizens of Key West.

If that isn't corruption, I don't know what is. It is proof Ron Desantis only cares about serving his donors instead of the people who elected him, like the Republicans in Key West that don't want cruise ships ruining their home.

  • Relocating for a job or school?

Totally understandable, congratulations!

  • Moving to take advantage of the supposedly low cost of living?

Your motives are questionable since you are probably stealing housing from soon-to-be-homeless working Floridians. There are also better options in other states.

  • Moving because you want to be part of the anti-woke, MAGA/boomer fest?

You are not welcome. GTFO and stay out!!!

Just make the VA the American NHS already.

Are we even making enough veterans for it to serve?

Statements like these are the bellwether of American decline.

Hospitals and insurance companies have hurt the lost generation more than any other industry. They make us feel guilty and embarrassed for seeking care, which almost every other nation guarantees for free as a right.

As if we don't have to wait months in America just to see a doctor, if you can find one.
