    Eh… I’m good.

    I’m a New Yorker who happens to be stuck in Florida right now. I don’t need any more of that shit.

        I guess that depends on what part of California you’re stuck in. I hope you have an EV

          The northern part. There are shitty people here of course but I love where I live. I have a hybrid but I live in a walkable city though I usually just ride my bike. It’s fucking ridiculous here right now with gas and food. Surviving California is not easy.

            I’m in Orlando. It’s like if you punched out a single neighborhood in LA and plopped it into the center of Florida. And, somehow, a little over 3 million people live here. It is not a walkable city. I suppose one can get around certain parts of it with an electric bike, but not much. Public transit here is a joke.

            I don’t really have any means of transportation at the moment. I’m just hoping to save up enough to get back to the city.

                I’ll say this about Orlando: it’s the best part of Florida. And man, that is a low fucking bar.

                I grew up here as a kid, and I escaped to New York as a teenager. As a gay man, I’m really really glad I’m not living anywhere else in the state.

                At least it’s pretty, but I miss being able to see the ocean from my rooftop. I miss the rivers. I miss being able to see the dolphins and the whales in the Hudson River. The red tailed hawk that would land on my fire escape every morning.

                I miss so much
