are they going to be in a situation where they are happy or no

moving to a city after having a lot of open space can be interesting but can also be claustrophobic

also need to consider how long u will be there and whether / where they would go to school

that said, overall it could be a thrill bc america is boring af
I believe trag lives close to his in laws and has that child rearing support; that going away could be tough too, as someone who’s gotten to this point without it. I suppose his daughter is school age though, which helps some.

It's cute watching everyone blow up the new Pearl Jam music threads, and though I can no longer participate, it's nice to see you nerds having fun.

I don't really listen to this type of thing anymore. I also don't know shit about production, though it's interesting to read.

Was able to ask tall girl about Dark Matter.

She said it reminded her of Gavin Rossdale and Bush.

I am going to test drive the Model 3 this weekend. Just made the appointment.
My current lease is almost up and gas is expensive and annoying to pump.

Take 5 mins to pump gas, versus an hour?

Have fun, EVs are a blast to drive. Don’t let the regenerative braking weird you out, you’ll love it.
