Bio
i post for attention and affection (it's a youngest child thing): memes, tech rambles, newly acquired domain names, and short irreverent nonsense i think is funny. ymmv.
seattle based. single parent. self-unemployed after >20 years in big tech
created 1st mastodon account: 2022-12-22
found out i was a girl: 2022-12-22
(former was causal to the latter)
i don’t use ai in my writing because it capitalizes words, and also because writing is the fun part for me (you do you!)
ask me about my banger domain names!

My ex keeps giving me "helpful" advice on things to change or hide about myself to get dates
and it's like... last time I did that I ended up married to someone who hated everything about me... so no thanks I'd much rather be alone
and anyway my type of people don't immediately dismiss awesome art "because it has a dragon"
they'd think it's rad and then we'd make out under smaug's penetrating gaze
I'm gonna name my six blahaj after my favorite queer people that live inside my phone (if they don't mind)
Worried and excited this path leads me to owning 250 blahaj~~~
:blobhaj_hug_full:
it's time for my annual "inclusive workspace" training at work~
this same week they added "men ONLY"/"women ONLY" signs outside the single occupancy (and previously gender-neutral) bathrooms
but make ME take the class, sure
i think there is another recently cracked egg on my team and if that fucker steals my thunder i'm gonna be so pissed off
gender is hard, let's go shopping!
if someone new at work says their favorite programming language is rust, is it okay to ask them if they also have a blahaj
this is a serious and time sensitive question :blobhaj_thedoctor:
sometimes it's tough being *sure* i'm Actually Trans
thank you for snapping me out of it, walking straight into a wall because i was distracted thinking about taking a cute boy's last name
was gonna do a joke somehow that new profile pic abbreviates to "new pp" but it was too hard, which is a bit of a bad joke too, so instead
My landlord keeps trying to fuck me over but is having difficulty because his dick is still inside of me from last time
(this is a metaphor he's gross and a bigot)
Therapy is bullshit invented by phone companies to make me feel obligated to call people and talk to them
my pronouns are she/they/he
and
my adjectives are cute/desirable/alleged
old and broken: "that's a problem for future me"
:Fire_BlackTrans: : "that's a problem for the LLM that replaces me"
I post too much negative shit so here's something positive again !
One of the coolest things about being trans is you get to sincerely compliment people's names. :bigblobhajhug:
{ hi lunas I would have been one of you if a friend hadn't named their stupid baby that. and who even knows what gender that baby really is }
sure wish technology companies put five fucking minutes into making their products safe for trans folk
hey we're a small market segment, that's the neat thing so even if we're murdered it should have a negligible impact to their KPIs
hard to be sure on a name for myself without having heard what it sounds like moaned in the thralls of ecstasy~
(this is a significant way picking a chosen name is different from naming a child)
dating apps, criticism of cis women
why are straight cis women on grindr
i had my annual physical with my old doc and i was figuring out when would be a good time to explain some things about my gender. i didn't want to lose him as my doctor because finding good pcp is impossible
"hey so a couple years ago your testosterone levels were a little low i think we should check those again"
~FUNNY YOU MENTION IT DOC~
My work health insurance covers trans hair removal. It seems mostly honesty based so I was wondering why every guy doesn't "pretend to be trans" so they can get rid of their gross body hair. :hatched_trans_egg:
(took 3 weeks to figure that little puzzle out, which IS a dramatic improvement from 30 years... but still pretty slow tbh :Gaysper_Trans: )
