Bio

trans girl living in seattle. single parent. self-unemployed after 20 years in big tech.

my main account is @gintoxicating where I post tech inanity, memes and shitpost (open to ~all followers)

this is my smaller alt mostly limited to gender people and other varietals of queer. sometimes a cool cishet slips by, and they should be proud both now and in a few months when they realize they're a girl :hatched_trans_egg:

hear me out on this: it's wrong for someone with 2,500 followers to sic their followers on a trans girl with 75

fuck anyone who does this, and fuck y'all who reinforce the power of bullies who strangely only use it to harm trans women when they get a little too uppity

fucking hell

weird how cis folks assume nobody wants to fuck trans people when we are in short supply and also literally the top search term on porn sites.

im no capitalist but we are talking about the basic economics of scarcity

Things are not looking up for me right now. I was supposed to get another university grant payment this month but my program dropped me for failing 3 courses in my first semester so I didn't get that money and am now struggling financially. I can only keep staying here for another 2 weeks before I can no longer afford it, and while moving back in with my parents is an option, I know that they would not treat me kindly and that my mental health would deteriorate somehow even further. I am trying to search for a job but my depression is almost the worst it's ever been so I'm struggling so badly to get anything done, I can't afford my meds anymore, and I'm suicidal right now too. I could use anything you can afford to give me to give me more time to find a find a job and be able to afford a stable place to live so I can try to get my life back on track.

my grungler buddy gave me some good relationship advice: “try not to fuck a pile of red flags”

anyway I really took it to heart and so now after the fifth or sixth obvious red flags I start to think “hmmm” then keep going because I like watching catastrophes and he thinks the stories are funny

grindr profiles are at most 255 characters and yet this one took me on a journey:

“you can call me Miku
(I always play dressed as Miku)

trans only NO CIS MEN OR WOMEN

I AM NOT TRANS
I am a guy who does COSPLAY”

chat I have no idea if this counts as a chaser

I’m taking a very professional and serious survey on how fediverse/mastodon features are used across instances and software!

so my first question: have you ever boosted a post someone else has written?

For statistical accuracy and reach, please boost!!!! :boosts_okgay:

After a bit less than 20 years, today is my last day working for Google.

Even though leaving is something I’m glad to do I’m still bad at change. For the past two decades my job has been the most stable part of my life through, like, everything: fertility and adoption struggles, an abusive marriage, my mom dying, a divorce, COVID, identifying/treating a congenital hormone imbalance[1], being assaulted……

Work gave me a second place that felt stable, where I could duck my head low and dig into something I know how to do really fucking well.

I could solve some other people’s problems, write a design doc with more memes than text, get my report promoted, help a coworker navigate a toxic manager…

Even when my life (and, later, my career) was cooked I could focus on helping and with that came the joy of seeing someone I care about succeed.

Maybe I’ll post some fun stories (right now I’m in a shit mood so “fun” probably would be sarcastic but I’ve worked there long enough that I do have actually fun stories too)
