I have no inclination to leave London, I just love it too much but if I do get tired of it at some point, I won't have the choice to move out to the sticks.
why, because you're not white? bullshit.
don't want, and can't are different things.remember that there are visibly non-white people who have grown up in "the sticks" and many more who have grown up in provincial towns, surrounded by white faces and have real lives - and yes some of it is fucking weird (especially looking back) but it's also a version of normal.

Oversimplification; maybe. But you can't deny that.
I have no inclination to leave London, I just love it too much but if I do get tired of it at some point, I won't have the choice to move out to the sticks.
And even if I was white; frankly; I'd chose to die with my lungs filled with PM2.5 than live in little britain. Its sad that the choice is between those two things.
