Maaaan. Everything seems dumb and hopeless recently

I don't remember, where did you grow up? Is SF specifically stressful, or do you not like high density in general?

I *love* a good city. I'm all about, for example, New York or Atlanta or Barcelona or Tokyo.

It's something about SF, and it's something about the Silicon Valley vs SF dichotomy. The vibe makes me feel unwelcome, and I feel like I'm *supposed* to like going there. In fact it's full of people who wish that I wasn't there (I can feel my very presence driving up rents), or who are hipster assholes who can smell how square I am.

And it's uniformly a hassle to get there from the South Bay.

(I grew up in suburban sprawl in North Florida, but I lived in midtown Atlanta for a long time after that)

"Atlanta isn't a real city." :p
