I wanted to start this thread a while ago. So many things happen in Cali that it justifies it. Florida may get one too one day.
This weekend I heard a news story about the state of California's teaching curriculum wanting to add something new to teach.
Capitalism is racist.
Please read and comment and feel free to add to the California post.

I watch a lot of van life, bus lives, RV life and yes car life videos.
Some pretty interesting videos out. Some are voluntarily choosing this lifestyle, but many are forced to live like that because housing is unaffordable. It's better that the street.

Well, semi legal. In the conservative butthole that is the Central Valley you would doubt its legal.

Costs are due to supply and demand; so applies to the cannabis industry. While my medical card no longer affords the tax benefits it used to, most dispensaries here offer freebies, great deals, frequent buyer programs, etc., which somewhat defray the taxes. As long as greed or way overcharging for a product don't come into play, I see nothing wrong with making money via this venture - or most any other investment, really.
Anyway, this native Angeleno has seen changes to California of course; everything evolves - or devolves. The cost of living where we are is through the roof, and if we were to look to buy in this area now, it'd be beyond unaffordable. I'm fortunate we've got 28 years in this place, and the equity that comes with it.
To the article itself, it seems to do children a disservice to focus more on one "side" than the other. How does one learn to reject or accept or form their own ideas if they're unaware of all of the options? It seems to stifle the critical thinking they want to promote.

In those 11 years the area had become a metropolis. It used to be all orange and strawberry farms but turned into malls and housing developments.
I would joke with my family that I wanted to buy a mountain in the area. They would all jokingly ask "why?" I replied that they seem to be building on every square foot here so might as well buy that mountain, it's only a matter of time.
A few months later the mountains I joked about were being developed...
She had seen Neil Young just pop up and and play in her local bar several times in the 60s.
She had been a nurse and agreed that the US health care system was vile compared to the German.
Cute couple. And she had a very cool Californian vibe.
That stinks.
It has nothing to do with being "nasty" and everything to do with rodent populations (prairie dogs being the worst) west of the 100th meridian being reservoirs for the disease.
