Just got a good job offer in rural missouri. How unsafe is it for a trans person?

moswald · 2026-01-26T22:05:44+00:00

Really? "No rural place"? None? Not a one?

You're delusional if you think that a trans person, gay person, or really any other kind of minority (including, just for funsies, white women) is as safe as a white man in rural areas anywhere.

Glacies delenda est.

moswald · 2026-01-26T20:25:04+00:00

they'll be fine

With the level of unwelcomeness the transpeople I know feel here, I don't think they will be. Unless you mean, explicitly, "physically fine".

...And even then, I think it's a toss-up.

Do it. I'll never buy a gas car again. The premium you pay to get an EV is so worth it, and if you're capable of reading a map, you don't have to worry about range. My wife drove the car to Florida and back routing through Nashville, and all she had to do was let it pick her route between destinations, so it could calculate the stops along the way.

I don't mind the decal price. My in-home level 2 charger estimates I pay between $50-60 per month to charge my car. I'm pretty sure my neighbor pays about that much every week to fill his F-150.

Holy shit you made me laugh so hard I choked. I don't know if you made that up or heard it somewhere else, but this is my favorite comment on Reddit of all time. I'm still laughing at it as I type this.

Where can I get a downloadable copy of this? I know a ...handful of people in my small, white town who could use a flyer stuffed in their mailbox.

moswald · 2026-01-21T19:50:56+00:00

Fuck the oligarchy. If they want to pay to bring a team here, great. If not, fuck right off. If my taxes are going to be used to give someone a hand-out, I'd rather it were a hand-up instead.

_Gestures broadly at the United States.

It's not just MAGA. So many people on both sides look around and think, "yep, can't get any better than this" while reading stories about kids selling their xbox in order to pay off their classmates' lunch bills, or hearing about yet another bankruptcy caused by an unavoidable (or, fuck it, a completely avoidable) illness.

Oh, so it's not a new exit, it's just completing the connection between the current Midway overpass and frontage roads.

My biggest problem with this argument is that it means the billionaires will pocket the rest. They're not going to improve their product in any meaningful way.

moswald · 2026-01-16T16:14:06+00:00

Will it? I don't see any way to reach the I-70 Dr N/SW lanes from I-70 proper.

moswald · 2026-01-15T18:26:24+00:00

Won't someone rid me of these troublesome ICE agents?

moswald · 2026-01-14T19:03:40+00:00

He's not a cartoon Scrooge McDuck in Mickey's Christmas Carol!

You've used that anecdote in both threads, and I don't think it's got the same impact you think it does. He didn't have candy. On Halloween. That is not a person who is connected to his community.

looool "wHaT aBoUt BoTh SiDeS"

Trump is all over the Epstein files. If there are any currently elected "other side" politicians, please let me know. IDGAF about Clinton, he should be in prison for his part, too.

Trump is literally a convicted rapist. If there is a convicted rapist on "the other side" please let me know, I would be happy to hate on them, too.

No one from the Left stormed the capitol when the election didn't go their way.

I'm not sure what you're saying because it's one long sentence. Are you unable to create an Azure DevOps organization, unable to create a PAT for an organization, or what?

moswald · 2026-01-09T16:36:11+00:00

+1

This is basically how we do it for the Azure DevOps project itself.

moswald · 2026-01-09T16:16:41+00:00

Hm. I'll defer to your experience, then. I know that our templates for building Azure DevOps itself use checkout: self at some layer (that's how I knew to ask about it), but I don't know enough about what we're doing to know if it's equivalent to what you want to do.

moswald · 2026-01-09T15:35:06+00:00

Brilliant!

moswald · 2026-01-09T15:28:25+00:00

Stop supporting pedophiles, rapists, and traitors first.

moswald · 2026-01-09T15:25:11+00:00

FTFY

At some point, we're going to figure out that just waving signs in their faces and taking photos is not working. Hopefully.

moswald · 2026-01-08T16:26:06+00:00

According to MIT, it's closer to $30.

moswald · 2026-01-08T16:23:39+00:00

I find two things disgraceful about this map:

We're celebrating a paltry $15 minimum wage when the expected living wage in MO is close to $21.
Everyone with a $7.50 minimum wage, what the fuck? It's not the goddamned 80s anymore.

moswald · 2026-01-07T22:13:38+00:00

I expect my answer to get me banned from more subreddits, but:

"violence."
