he means CA home values are re-assessed at purchase not annually like most other places. so your new neighbor is paying a lot more in property tax than the people that have been on the block 20 years.

the basic premise of wilderness classes is 'there is no 911, no one is coming for you' so the mentality is different. trying to stabilize the victim first and then to determine is they can self evacuate or you need to send out a rescue runner.

I grabbed an old Obon festival flyer from 2014 and told chatgtp to:

"look at this image and give me variants in the style of classical japanese artists and graphics designers (be sure to include hokusai and Ikko Tanaka). be sure to tell me about each style. upscale and include the original with some designer words that are plausible"

at least two of these don't look like AI to me and are perhaps better than the original. but a non-designer is likely to pick the more busy ones.
