that there are 2 events that will get me moving back to CA: civil war, and California's secession from the USA.

i think both are unlikely but possible. I am so fucking homesick, but here in NC I own a home, which was never going to happen in CA. I have children here and there. Even now I'm not sure how my standard of living would change if I moved back home.

This is a good move in so many ways. Public Health will improve in CA with the guidance of WHO.
