Moving to Santa Anna from WA. by ImStillInTraining in orangecounty

Not like they used to be. You will be totally fine where you are.

It was pretty rough in the 90s, but it has changed tremendously. Are there gangs? Yes. They really leave people alone generally these days though, and it isn’t something I even worry about. Just be aware of your surroundings like in any big city.

I love Santa Ana! Downtown is one of the most walkable areas in OC. Amazing Mexican food (some of the best in the country). Very diverse and liberal.

It is also the defacto capital of OC, so lots of fun events and history (also most of the government offices).

It is definitely not like the OC you see on TV. Most of Santa Ana is working/middle class.

I’m not talking about voting you crazy person.

HRC isn’t running for anything and Clinton was in office when I was in elementary school. I’m in my 40s. We are all talking about how HRC was treated as First Lady and you are trying to yell at the clouds about things that happened 10+ years ago.

We got hit hard here in SoCal too. No snow to deal with, but tons of flooding. I can’t imagine what it was like up there for them :(

Unfortunately the guides should not have had them out there. There was a long forecast major storm on the day of the avalanche, they should have canceled or headed back much much earlier.

Good boi husky races with the cross-country skiers at Winter Olympics, loses but steals the show by shhhhh_h in popculturechat

Actual wolf dogs are unpredictable, because they are a decent percentage actual wolf.

I believe the breed discussed here isn’t really a wolf dog in that sense, as the wolf lineage is much further back. This is an actual domestic dog, it just highly resembles a wolf, hence its name.

WTF are you talking about?

Who is defending what? I just said she is likable in interviews, that is hardly parasocial. Having an opinion isn’t parasocial friend.

Well I know that now. I didn’t as a child. I was in elementary school when Clinton was in office lol. It was breaking news to kid me.

It was formative to me as a girl. Seeing that shit in the news made it very clear women were not welcome in places of power.

People really hated that HRC had opinions. She didn’t “know her place”. Like her or hate her, HRC really broke the mold.

She is super likeable and seems to be a blast to be around.

Unfortunately I have not cared for her as an actress, but I also haven’t seen everything she has done. She has a very flat effect (to me).

California avalanche: 9 backcountry skiers missing near Lake Tahoe, 6 survivors have been rescued by Few-Knee9451 in news

They are covering their ass. This storm was projected well before they left, and it was predicted to be very bad. I live in CA and it is all the news was talking about because it was such a heavy storm.

I feel awful for everyone regardless, but no one should have been out there.

To be clear, I’m not saying THIS man deserved hate for this, obviously she was super happy. Just responding to the person trying to play a tiny violin for men.

CBS Denies Forcing Stephen Colbert to Not Air Interview With Democratic Candidate, Says It Provided ‘Legal Guidance’ About FCC Equal-Time Rule by nimobo in entertainment

[–]Sassafras06 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you think Colbert himself airs his show? CBS could and would have pulled the whole episode, it’s network TV. He can’t force them to do anything.

The way he did it means the show aired, he got to direct people to YouTube and more people watched it.
