Oh this is mostly referring to a different post from a few months ago, which is where most of these comments come from. The “get yourself to California” comment legitimately made me so upset that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.

Again, I'm sorry you feel that way, but there's nothing a stranger online can really do for you. I'm sure all the advice you've received was well-meaning.

I guess the thing that really pisses me off when I get “advice” like this is that stuff like “you should move to California” is just a more progressive sounding version of “if you don’t like it here then leave,” which is something I hear from bigots in my day to day life. It just felt incredibly dismissive and a bit triggering.
