    Yeah, seems like a great place. And I hear the cops were super-helpful with catching those guys, and totally didn't just tell the entire gay community to fuck off and die.

    Done with Japan or are they kicking you out?

    I still like it, but the gf hates her school so much and changing jobs here is a bitch (this is from a friend of mine who was working as an engineer here). The majority mentality here is basically you do one job for the rest of your life.

    Yeah, the main thing to get your brain around in the states then will be that the way to advance is to change jobs. Sticking with one company for 5 years is a "long haul". Some places (Amazon, Microsoft, Google) have benefits so good that holding yourself back by sticking with one company works out. But, especially if you are a contractor, you have to be willing to walk for a better offer.

    Hm... I'll keep that in mind, thanks. :) I just like doing different things to get new experiences.

    We just haven't really been aggressively applying yet (tossed my resume around to like 2 companies, she hasn't done anything that I know of) mostly because we just still can't decide where we want to live. We both think it might be easier to get started down in Aussie land where she's from. *shrug*

    There is nothing wrong with peeing in the shower.

    Taking a bath--which is to say, sitting around and soaking in your own filth--is disgusting.

    You will have incidents like that pretty much anywhere, occasionally; the differences are 1) you didn't have a crowd of people standing around and watching, just letting shit happen, in Seattle; and 2) the cops fucking arrested the guy, instead of saying "sorry, y'all, yer SOL."

    But hey, I'm sure if instead of gay people, it had been a television set, and instead of white rednecks, it had been a couple of Mexicans, the people of Austin would have been all over that shit.

    it's an example

    it's unreasonable to wash your sheets once a week, right?

    in one week you lay in your bed for 6-8 hours every night, and a lot of people don't bathe until the morning. You're telling me that a bath from one day is more dirt than than your sheets after a week?

    I really, really doubt it

    yeah seriously than that's a really dumb argument

    I mean some skinheads beat a Nigerian immigrant to death in Portland not so long ago either

    just because a place is generally super liberal doesn't mean it's completely free of criminally bigoted people

    Probably the most secure places for oppressed groups are where they dominate the local culture (San Francisco, Atlanta, etc), but that's not the same thing as "liberal."

    It's a bit harder to catch someone sending anonymous letters than it is to catch a bunch of rednecks who beat up some gay people in front of scores of witnesses. What the police were "busy" doing was coordinating with the bar owners and the FBI to try to catch the fuckers that did it, as opposed to just saying "eh, we're never gonna catch the guys; fuck off."

    As to the bystanders, my guess is it might have something to do with Austin's gigantic bar scene and huge college population. I think people in Austin are pretty inured to bar fights, and once the pummeling starts it's hard to tell a hate-crime from just some dudes beefing.

    That's just my guess. I lived in Austin for a month (rooming with a couple of gay guys, no less) and it seemed and I was told that it's generally very gay friendly, as well as overwhelmingly liberal.

    It's pretty much the Portland of Texas. Which is a fair analogy, because the rest of Oregon is about as red as the rest of Texas is. It's just that there's a lot more of red Texas than of red Oregon.

    edit: also big surprise cops are dickheads everywhere. Of all people I'm shocked you would make a statement that implies there are places where cops aren't conservative douches.

    Again, no matter how liberal, the only place I'd expect cops to be really sympathetic to the gay community would be SF, and only because there are a shitload of gay cops and the city is culturally defined by the gay culture there

    threats of ricin attacks are also somewhat more serious than assault, even if it is a hate-crime

    mass murder generally trumps assault, and tends to draw in federal authorities

    yes but Austin is still about as liberal as Portland

    I think it's important to not confuse "liberal" with "safe for oppressed groups."

    Certainly I think plenty of queer, black, Muslim, Latino, can tell you that living in a town full of white liberals is not the same thing as being safe and welcomed.
