they heading out to texas and the deep south and vegas, florida

anywhere where there arent state income taxes and homelessness and traffic and insane real estate prices

and i am on top of runyun canyon, where lemmy posed for this picture,

and im pointing east saying that way fuckers

that way.

like mr motorhead, ive lived in hollywood now 37% of my life. all in this 1 bedroom apt.

lemmy had a 1bd in hollywood too.

lately ive been watching videos on youtube of people moving out of LA buying houses.

and i look at other videos of people around the world: bali, manila, mexico city, india, tokyo to see what its like there

how much they spend on rent, what they do for fun

and the weirdest thing happened: i realized i have it good here.

thanks to 5 years driving uber, if you give me a cross street i pretty much know where it is and whats around it.

and how to get there quickest.

do i want to explore? of course.

but the more i talk with people the more i learn how little i know about this place.

how little i know about the history and what makes people tick.

would it be nice to have a pool and a hot tub and a dishwasher, yes.

but it’s also nice not to have to start all over

even if it’s on a tropical isle

with a rooftop cabana

and maids that come whenever you want

for six bucks.
