The dude who runs this on Mastodon is a pretty cool dude. I follow him and sometimes we talk about a print he posted. He's always down to discuss some games haha.

The company I work for is based out of San Diego (I'm from the deep south) and they fly me out there occasionally for work. I also lived there for about a year a little over 10 years ago. Downtown San Diego is somewhat similar to what you mentioned but the rest of it is basically paradise. Granted, I couldn't afford to live there (especially the paradise parts) but none of the stuff you mentioned has been a problem to me as an out-of-towner.

I rented a car so I can't comment on taxis, but I'm willing to bet that's not a California specific thing. In fact, if you've ever been to Seoul or Busan you would probably wish you had a California driver. The nice hotel I stayed at was around $250 a night I believe and it was around some nice shops that I visited for food. Never saw anyone steal anything and don't recall seeing stuff locked up (at least not nearly as much as I do where I'm from in the south).

I went to Pacific beach, didn't see anyone (noticeably) on drugs and ate a wonderful dinner and ran around on the beach at night with some coworkers. We also went to a Padres game (they lost) and had a blast. Parking sucked and was expensive. There were a good bit of homeless people packed downtown and it wasn't nearly as nice as it was 10 years ago. The worst thing about it is it's super expensive and things are really far a part and car centric, but I don't know any place in the US that's not really like that.

However, I absolutely believe every thing you said. I don't doubt any of it. In fact it sound vaguely similar to my experience in San Fransisco many years ago. California is a massive state, like, super duper big. Some parts are better than others but overall I think it's a pretty sweet place if you could afford it. There are definitely places I'd choose to live over California but it wouldn't be too far down the list.

This is pretty dope. I don't envy the position pancake was in though.

I don't have a dog in the fight and unfortunately I can't read the Spanish sources above but I appreciate you taking the time to defend your point even when you won't get any love on this site.

The standard version of Netflix comes with the tapeworm. Upgrade to the UHD 4k package for tapeworm free viewing.

I've always been very tempted to read these. I think you just convinced me to give it a go after I finish my current book!

I'm in the exact same place as you! I've bought all the games and I'll buy this too, but it'll probably be a long time before I'll get to it.

And Dragon Quest XI was released for the 3DS I'm Japan. Never understood why we couldn't get that here too.
