He had a whole tweetstorm on his repeated harassment by Homeless Crackheads and the eventual ending.
"The crack pipe must have broke in her mouth when her male partner fell on top of her. So sad."

Jeez. This morning I went to Santa Cruz for the first time in about ten or so years.
My recollection was I'd see those creepy street people in downtown and area between downtown and the beach.
But Jeez oh man they seem to have spread out.
I did not even really go in to SC proper. Made a right turn off the 17 at the Denny's to head away from downtown on Ocean St to the cemetery. Already, saw some filthy looking whacked out people in front of the Denny's. Then, a homeless hobo beggar in the parking lot at the cemetery, and another on the road between 17 and the cemetery.
I think it's gotten worse than when I was last in SC.
you could drive into Santa Cruz and see something goofy every time. Now, when we take walks, even in neighborhoods, the people seem creepy and weird, and everybody is on edge, the druggies are everywhere.

There's a whole hobo shopping cart commute/march/caravan from unda-tha-bridge to the library here in suburbia for the morning commute I used to make. Also about 20 illegal aliens on the sidewalk immediately after I pull out of my apartment complex hailing jobs / blocking the road. Actually more than that.
Thank you covid-19!
My car has a layer of dust on it like I used to see on 'old boats' - cars - parked in peoples driveway with flat tires when I was a kid.

Car turns 18 in 3 weeks too. Can't wait. Going to splurge on a new (used) one after that. I'm not even sure CA would accept it as a donation at this point. It was black and the paint peeled, then it was whitish. Then that pealed and it's black again.

Hey maybe some peeps who live(d) in Florida can tell me a bit about the state of the state. Are they hurting for money (pensions etc.,) like some of the others? I don't recall ever seeing FL on any of the short lists.
Also, how about those African dust storms? I remember them reaching TX and they sucked. One is hitting my parents in TX right about now in fact. FL being so much closer I bet gets hit good.

I was in Florida for 5 years.
Fiscally I think it's okay, probably pensions and salaries are not so high as to bankrupt the state.
Those dust storms I recall hearing about but I don't recall dust, rather rain in the summer.
It rains hard down in Florida, I was amazed.
Once it was so heavy that I was on the freeway unable to see almost , traffic slowed to about 15mph.
I liked the "lazy days of summer" after a while.
I tended to hibernate after lunch and watch a movie in AC comfort in the hot months.

As far as a city to retire in, I'm thinking Reno is near the top of my list given all the factors.
My suggestion: don’t be scared to live in a mixed neighborhood with blue collar people and a fairly good mix of Latinos. People are more real and more fun.Great suggestion and that has been my experience to a T. If people in my neighborhood knew how much I make, they'd shit bricks. But, my wife and I have learned that we're much happier living with down-to-earth middle class people who aren't constantly masturbating to the luxury car they just bought or the European vacation they just went on. We've lived in the upper scale neighborhoods and hate the people.

These five areas are the principal wine-grape growing regions of the world.
They all sound pretty pleasant, except for South Africa these days, dragging white farmers to death behind trucks, because you know, BLM.

Then why did you pick Atlanta over places like Savannah or Charleston?
We ended up in the Atlanta area. Believe it or not, we actually really enjoy it here and have thrived in the area. Whereas in CA it was much harder to make friends beyond the surface level and it seemed like everyone was always broke. Our cost of living is great, we paid cash for our house and run several businesses out of it. We've met a lot of very successful people down here, our kids have a lot of friends and owning a gun is considered norm. Good area, yes. Would I pick it again? Maybe, maybe not.
I personally miss the ocean and living within a 5 minute drive of solid hikes/mountain peaks. I bought a boat this year for our local lake thinking that would scratch the itch and it's really done nothing but drop my bank account balance $20k. I'm now thinking of selling it. I've considered parts of Florida, but have also considered Central America as I'm 100% remote work wise. We're considering renting our place out and sailing around the Caribbean for a year, but who knows.

She's sick of the stifling crowds, sanctuary crap, fires, the plain, daily crazy, ever encroaching crime and the endless blaring psychosis of one progressive shitburger after another. She wants to spend a year or two seriously looking to leave and move elsewhere. Covid and permissive riots with no interventions have driven people she knows over the edge in Santa Cruz who are all very seriously on the emigration bandwagon. Some have already moved in the last couple of months with their children, mostly to Oregon. She wants a place that is more immune from these self inflicted political disasters and has enough self governance to maintain civic order.
In the coming months, as the Kommie Python digests and exacerbates the economic disaster for working people and businesses, things will just get worse. I heard about one church (probably the first of many) that has has gone bankrupt from this. The Globalists have literally fucked everybody and everything with these disasters and madness for their narrow political purposes, and the fallout has fallen on America's most productive segments while elevating the scum. Leave it to the vandals and the swedo progressive crime families at the top?
We used to laugh just a few years ago, because you could drive into Santa Cruz and see something goofy every time. Now, when we take walks, even in neighborhoods, the people seem creepy and weird, and everybody is on edge, the druggies are everywhere.
Don't know how this will pan out, but we will be shopping for locales. I will miss surfing and the ocean, but they even shut that down for a while.
Used to be you came to California to pan for gold. Now, you come to California to pan for dregs.
