I have always heard that there will be a big quake and California will fall off the U.S. Lol.

No no and no.
As different as we are (and I've lived in both north and south CA) we are still Californians. Only a handful of people actually vote in favor of a split. It's been voted on in the past. And lost big time each time.
No State can leave the Union. There is no provision in the Constitution for that to happen. In fact that's what the civil war was about, southern states trying to leave the Union.
Refer back to the first answer. As much as USC dislikes Cal, it dislikes UCLA, a neighbor, even more. And that pretty much sums up how north and south feel about each other. Not enough to fight over.

The people who promote the idea - the people who have always promoted the idea - are largely the sort of people who don't wear socks. So there's that.....

Not anytime soon. USA is too economically and socially stable for civil war.
We are a nuclear state, so only civil war can split this union [not outside forces, they can only use proxy wars].
America has poverty but our poverty line is a godamn joke, ''poor'' in USA is rich by most other countries standards. Most poor Americans are not poor enough to be desperate enough to want to break from the union.
You need a very marginalized group to fight a civil war.

Not gonna happen. This is not the first attempt to split the state, but none so far has gotten very far. There's no way they're going to get the state legislature AND the people of California to go along with it, both being dominated by urban/suburban Democrats from coastal areas.
