I like the idea of them, but right jow they're too expensive and I live in an apartment, so I've got nowhere to charge unless I go to one of the limited amounts of charge stations by me. For the price of one electric motorcycle. I could get two entry level motorcycles.

You do realize that both electric motors and ICE, are both motors, right? And that both also meet the definition of engine.

My job allowed me to live other places and return here. I lived in Denver, Washington DC, Maryland, Tahoe City, CA, been to all 50 states, lived in Europe, brother lives in Maine and lived in WY. They just left WY and returned to Maine. So I was there a lot. Always return to WA. Keep your roots in WA, just do some travel. I would go to Maine and say, “where are all the tall tree forests”? They have forests but the trees are squatty and unimpressive. Mountains unimpressive after experiencing anything west of Denver. I go to MT or WY almost every winter to ski…yes, beautiful, but I find the people weird. Weather on the east coast in the summer? Do you like to sweat in the humidity? Do you like bugs? Just do some travel…you’ll be really glad to come back to WA.

I find all the motion in the lower 2/3rds unsettling. Maybe it's just my hangover.

If you’re under 30 I’d recommend getting a working holiday visa and moving to New Zealand. The scenery of the South Island definitely rivals Washington and there are less people.

Then there would be poor people near them. Won’t anyone think of the property values???

I've personally moved to Oklahoma and I know others who have moved to Texas and Kansas and they have all returned to Washington except me. My move was a recent mistake lol and I'm still trying to figure out what to do about it

They seem to want that in the Bay Area too, affordable housing… the only problem is they want that housing not anywhere near THEIR house… fuck

I do live somewhere less populated out on the Olympic peninsula, who's population has doubled since my family moved out here 25 years ago. Its insanely crowded compared to what it once was. So much of our scenic landscape is being torn down for sub divisions. Our one lane road highways were not meant to handle this much traffic, but I don't hear a peep from WSDOT about putting in additional lanes.

Oh no, I completely agree with you, not the person you were responding to. The solution to a housing shortage isn’t telling people to stay away, it’s getting more housing built

It was probably lost in translation. Text on the internet tends to do that. I definitely understand what you’re saying. I just visited Portland (moved away after living there for almost 2 years) and every street is packed with cars. Theres soo many people there!

I just moved to WA from NYC area. I spent much of my time in the Adirondacks of upstate NY. Lake placid is a great mountain town with tons of lakes for canoeing. I feel like that’s the closest I’ve experienced which compares to the PNW. Also costal Maine is gorgeous and reminds me of the port towns here.

Once again, shut up and tell your city council members to approve more housing

I’m awfully fond of Appalachia. My dad has a few acres outside of Beckley WV. Very lush and green, but still different than it is here, in its own ways.

Maybe let them ask their own questions.
