And New York. I came from New York. And I moved here on New Year's Day, and, you know, I was zipping up my jacket a little bit, coming from the freezing cold, and I was like, fuck, why didn't I do this three years earlier? Yeah, indeed. But... Are we overtaxed? Yes. Are we overregulated? Yes. And the tragedy is that it doesn't have to be that way. You could have the sunshine and the common sense.
No, I mean, I've confronted our governor about this many times. And I mean, I know this guy is probably not your cup of tea, but at least we see, I mean, Gavin Newsom was like the poster boy for the far left, California government, blah, blah, blah. And he's come around on women in sports. He's come around on getting the homeless off the streets. He's come around on free Medicare.

Maybe. But I think he wants to be president. And I think to be president, you have to move to the center. I mean, at least we see a movement. I mean, you would agree that we need two parties, right?

Right. I mean, I'm thinking back now to January and what I was saying about that shit, which seemed to me like the reasonable middle position, which I always think of myself, maybe, I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, maybe everybody else is right.

So if you ask me, that was 80% of it. But when you're living in a disaster zone like this, you can't afford to make any errors. And they made plenty of errors. And The police chief, I think the top three spots in the fire department, I think, were lesbians, something like that. And it's like, I think lesbians can do the job, of course.
