Am on sniffies. Its fine if the city has a population over 120k. Small towns not as much.
And I would rather live in a place where I don't have to worry about a supreme court decision leading to a trigger law in our Texas constitution sending me to prison for fucking the person I want.
Even tho the supreme court invalidated the law via Lawrence v Texas, it's fundamental basis was the right to privacy that was invalidated by the Dobbs decision. If (and when given the state of things) the supreme court revisits the topic, the original law is still in the state constitution.
Fuck this shitty state. I'd prefer it was broken up and I lived in the state of Houston. In fairness, California should also be broken up. But that's beside the point.
Well then I would recommend Seattle. But expect high crime unfortunately. Basically the same deal, nobody cares about you so you gotta go homeless under a bridge and steal what you need to survive. Put winter is fine 🙂. No homeless would dare be outside in winter. I mean we house homeless people in winter right? Right? We don't just snow plow them or anything in a big reset sort of way....right? Anybody? Otherwise Seattle is great 😃👍. All kidding aside, Seattle is good. You'll still find trump stickers around unfortunately but it's good. Except for the small surrounding little towns which I totally agree with you, they are gay deserts. But just remember, every rain starts with one drop.
I live in the IH-10 corridor in one of the rainiest parts of Texas. Crime and rain are normal for me.
As for the cold? Bring it. If I can deal with 110°, hurricanes, no power for 8 days in summer, no power for 3 days in frozen temps, I can take Seattle. At least they prepare to be frozen.
