I noticed that... Redder than ever as I watched the polls. I guess at least it'll be under the ocean in a few decades. Amazing how it changed since 2000, though. My PhD is in education policy, and also someone who dated a trans woman, I know exactly how fucked y'all are.

If only California could fix it's housing issues, we really should be a refuge for cool folk like yourself. People used to flock here, for better or worse.

Hardly anyone can afford to live in the progressive parts unfortunately.

It's true. Some places are affordable but won't be terribly enjoyable unless a lot of progressives move there (like Bakersfield isn't the worst place in the world).

Edit: on two separate occasions I saw cars wrapped in full anime weeb regalia parked in places in Bakersfield. It's just mostly immigrant farm workers, though.
