Bio
i post for attention and affection (youngest child thing): memes, tech rambles, newly acquired domain names, and short irreverent nonsense i think is funny
seattle based. single parent. self-unemployed after 20 years in big tech

found out i was a girl: 2022-12-22
(former was causal to the later)
i donโt use ai in my writing because it capitalizes words, and also because writing is the fun part for me (you do you!)

my ex does the compliment sandwich thing except itโs the atkins version :3
a group of ravens is called a murder;
a group of trans girls is called an orgy
i know i'm not supposed to like or use ai but it just spit this out when I asked what linux distro is the most trans:
"""
Arch has chaotic trans girl energy and there is real data backing โa suspicious number of trans women run Arch.โ
- DIY, โbuild your own system from pieces,โ and refusing defaults maps weirdly well to gender DIY and transition culture.
- Heavy emphasis on documentation, sharing configs, and community knowledge (dotfiles, wikis, AUR) mirrors how trans communities share HRT guides, voice tips, fashion, etc.

If you ever think to yourself, I want to chat with that person, but I don't want to bother them.
STOP, go send them a dm, they may also want to chat with you, but feel too anxious to send a dm.
In the worst case scenario they will just ignore you, it's fine.
Please do dm people
How I know Iโm trans: I saw a headline about โrust: console editionโ and my first thought was โwow, typing in code with a playstation controller sounds awfulโ
my family wants to go play something called โtop golfโ so I say itโs unfair because Iโm a bottom, but since theyโre all cishet they didnโt understand
Hey Germans, please come up with a word that means "the fear of typing `return` vs `shift-return` because you don't know which inserts newline and which sends the message"
I confused the tsa man to the point where they werenโt sure which button to press on the body scanner, so they just said screw it and sent me through the xray machine
I feel this needs to be repeated ๐ช
The annoyance of cookie banners
doesn't come from the regulations, but from the malicious compliance of the corporations who want to exploit your personal data.
No data-harvesting cookies = No banner.
Simple.
My websites have no cookie banners,
because they don't use any non-essential cookies and don't track visitors.
Yours shouldn't either.
i still occasionally get one of those fun validating head spiny moments when I find out a weird experience is a Genuine Transfem Thing That Happens
I had been thinking moving to a self hosted instance had too big of a downside since itโs somewhat isolatingโฆ but yeah thanks to some fellow queers for very quickly reminding me trans women do not have a safe space anywhere.
Nobody else looks out for us, we have to do it ourselves.
The new Frankenstein movie is really good itโs about feminism and parenting and how most men are too irresponsible and emotionally incapable to create life
too old to figure out what discord orbs are
I said, "I love you too"
He said, "Everything is different now, everything has changed
Always on a plane, always something new"
I said, "Nothing's new, nothing's changed, I still need you"

i forgot i was a bad bitch
the point of camo for a soldier is to obscure their position from the enemy. camo in an urban environment is completely different, and this forest green or desert pattern is functionally useless. police only dress this way to project an image of power they should not have.
