@Szescstopni it's Canada – They all want to join us in a tiny, woodsy cabin with beavers tapping at the door, and the only ice is for curling and skating.
@ottaross @Szescstopni Yes, please! I want to move to Three Pines, lol. I’ll be the bookstore lady who does counseling in a pinch.

@Heartofcoyote @Szescstopni you'll need a cat, or a dog will do in a pinch, and you're all set.

@ddr That's great. But you're pointing me in the direction of the rabbit hole of research on the ecology of golf fields. Guess I might not come out of it for a while.
@ddr Just took a glance. First search results say golf fields are great for ecology. And they're SEO written by golf course businesses. This really sucks.

@Szescstopni @rk @pseudonym
I think he's talking about the sitcom 'Friends'Or US sitcoms in general, but Friends is a good exemplar.
3 bedroom apartment in NYC would be terrifically expensive, yet on TV shows, folks with modest jobs and wacky neighbors have huge apartments with no apparent source of income to support them.
It's just sort of a genre trope.

Don't live in a forest! Seriously. I do and regret it. I had to evacuate from a fire last fall. Every year, with every fire season, the smoke outside gets to into the dangerous levels. My dream is to live on flat land with a lot of sky.

@rayotron Too late. I've been living in a forest for ten years. I know that fire is the biggest threat to us. We'll keep on FA and hopefully not FO. And the our volunteer fire department is really good.

Legit, I have more than a few times said my dream house is a stone cottage just far enough from town that I became the basis of a local legend about a witch that eats children who don't go to sleep at their bedtime

I just want a small beach shack on a remote tropical island. With WiFi. Is that too much to ask for?

@Szescstopni - Ahem. Super villain lair here.
(I want the lab, and I want the defensive perimeter so I don't ever have to deal with people.)

@Szescstopni My previous next door neighbors moved TO Florida. I feel like if one has the opportunity, one should be moving OUT of Florida. Guess they like not being able to get house insurance in a hurricane state.

@Szescstopni what is wrong with people. why would you want to live somewhere that is that flat and full of mosquitoes

@KanaMauna Wi-Fi on a remote tropical island won't be easy. Starlink, perhaps, but who knows when they start censoring anything that's nice and kind?

@jmax A lab sounds great. Though they're not very good in defence. But dogs are great. (Please don't experiment on labs in your lab)

@Szescstopni yuck. I won't even visit Florida much less want to live there.

@kimlockhartga Always trust the actuaries.

@Szescstopni - No, I was raised by a Husky/Lab mix. I know better than to put one on guard duty; one treat and the intruder is in.
Although they will be announced. "More? More? More?..."

@draNgNon Right, why have I done this? Now I use more DEET than vodka.

@Szescstopni @almondtree I am fortunate to be living the Mastodon dream.

I want to imagine that if I wasn't born physically disabled, I would have moved to the middle of a forest or the grasslands by now.

@Szescstopni
It sounds like you are very aware of the problem. I just want people to consider fire when they choose a place to live. Here in the Pacific Northwest US the situation is quite bad and getting worse.
