Trump's Covid 19 Plan, Get Cancer Then Poison Yourself

WKB says...

Why does Trump have a Paul Rudd mask on in that profile pic. That looks weird.

And, man, lol. Watching years of your dancing... it's like a ballet dedicated to spiraling into your own fears. You got staying power, I'll give you that.

Only fools think Trump suggest injecting disinfectants like bleach and rubbing alcohol might be a good treatment to kill Covid,


Shit load of Fools on the sift.

How these penny-pinchers retired in their 30s

newtboy says...

Arcata, being our college town, is the most expensive town here. I would consider other nearby towns if being cheap is important. Try Blue Lake, where I am (I'm outside town), it's more rural but under 10 miles from Arcata.
We moved here 25 years ago....back then, a 1000 square ft house with an acre cost us $800a month. I've owned my home since then, so I'm out of the rent loop, but poking on craigslist looks like around $1500-$2000 for a decent house, with some more, some less depending on what you get. Nice 2-3 bedroom homes seem to be about $500000 now with some property.

Our gas is the most expensive in the country consistently, over $4.

Beyond that, it's pretty cheap. Property tax is 1%, food is reasonable, entertainment is mostly nature and community, fishing, hunting, hiking, boating, surfing, diving, even back country skiing 1/2 hour up hill, so free, although there are paid events too, we even had GWAR play a few times in Eureka, but no opera or ballet.

My wife and I live on $30k....we have 4 cars, pets, vacations, a large pond, hot tub, etc. Because I have room, I grow a lot of our produce and we have around 40 fruit trees. We aren't putting any extra in the bank, but aren't depleting our savings either.

We are the marijuana capital of America, if you know the right people, it's maybe $100 an oz for A grade, $10-20 a gram for wax/oil.

All in all, it depends on your lifestyle. It would be easy to spend all you save living here on gas, or easy to not have a car at all if you're in town and will ride a bike in the rain. While there are certainly cheaper places to live, I'm not sure there's better. Our forests are gorgeous with skyscraper redwoods, the ocean is cold but clean here, the rivers unspoilt and full of fish, our air is some of the cleanest in the lower 48, water is too, and our summer daytime temperature is mostly 70-75 F, winter is low 50's- freezing, but we have very few freezing days.

Mckinleyville, just above Arcata, was (still is?) the largest town in California with no police, only highway patrol. They got a multiplex before police!

We have a ton of immigration from the bay area, but more often than not they move back because they miss the fast pace and abundant services and entertainment....I didn't.

Hope that helps. We love it here, but we're slow paced and super cheap bastards. If you are too, come check it out.

Newt,

You've mentioned living in Humbolt County -- how is the cost of living there? Arcata is on my retirement short-list.

I dare you not to find this mind-blowing!

GloriaJean says...

I find all the sexist comments unbelievable. I guess some folks have issues with their self-identity even into adulthood.

These are two beautiful dancers with great strength, agility and creativity. I have two daughters who were in classical ballet for 9 years and we all enjoy this amazing dance. Between my oohs and aahs of the many startling movements, I laughed and laughed.

This video is about a dance, not you.--Gloria

Dancing on Water: The Chinese Art of Bamboo Drifting

Fencing in slow motion

UncleBlasto says...

A beautiful video - in regaurds to what the poster mentioned, I would make this observation- Modern competitive fencing is to "sword fighting" what Ballet is to folk dancing, a purified form. What noims said stikes a chord with me, I miss it greatly. Pommel up.

I dare you not to find this mind-blowing!

Why you shouldn’t drive slowly in the left lane

ravioli says...

All of this left lane-right lane organization of traffic is only needed because people are not very good at driving. In 10 years or so, when most vehicles are self-driving, we will see a perfect ballet of cars and trucks dancing in optimized harmony. Well, that would be great.
