This. Exactly this.

I am not trans, but I will say that I think you should move to a more accepting area first. We would be thrilled to welcome you as whichever gender identity you'd like to be here in the Bay Area.

Best of luck internet friend.

I'm almost there.

I also live in the Bay Area. My rent is locally cheap but nationally very high. My wife has a chronic illness and an unrelated acute issue that recently required surgery. She can barely work. Until this most recent surgery I was keeping ahead, but expenses are up and income is down and that's not true anymore.

I have good health insurance but there's a lot more to medical costs than just doctors, and to partially manage her daily quality of life it's not weird to cook her three different dinners and she can only stomach one. This explodes our meal budget.

We're childfree but one of our dogs recently also got diagnosed with chronic illness. They are our kids, full stop.

Shit happens. Don't be a dick about it.

Wrong. It's "democrats advanced in fits and starts, sometimes stumbling and falling, but heading in the direction of the finish line. I keep voting for them because the other guys are trying to set off a dirty bomb on the race track."

Exactly. We're a minority but it's still like 15%-20% of the overall problem that's addressable.

given the source of the energy most EVs use :/

What? This is hilariously wrong.

A profoundly filthy coal power plant has multimillion dollar filtration the size of your damn apartment. That gross coal is scrubbed more than the gasoline from any vehicle possibly could be.

In a first world country it's not possible to have an electric car as dirty per joule as a gas vehicle.

Further, the powertrain is direct and therefore dramatically more efficient, so on a distance basis you get an additional multiplier. That's where the EPA MPGe comes from - total energy content of 1 gallon of gasoline, converted to range on the electric vehicle.

That's about 33 kWh in one gallon, which is about half the total storage capacity of my Bolt EUV 2023 (65 kWh) which has about 240mi of range on a full charge, which is why the MPGe is ~120mi/gal, which for an equally polluting power source as a personal gas vehicle, is 5-6x cleaner. Public DC fast chargers are frequently exclusively renewably powered.

It's impressive because literally every possible angle of your statement is hilariously incorrect.

They're all sourced to the same "study" by a climate denialists outfit.

I'm all about MonoLisa, but I'll give this a look

Ten,

Unless they poisoned the Nazi's food and are just waiting to see the waterworks.

Sleep as Android!

You can make it device administrator and additionally add a max snooze count and a dismissal CAPTCHA. When I REALLY have to get up no matter what, I need to go physically touch my phone to an NFC tag in the living room. Can't even turn the phone off because it blocks that when ringing when given admin access.

JS Bach.

The only two I would consider otherwise are both alive (Lindsey Stirling and Amy Lee). They even have a collaborative piece 🎉
