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
created 1st mastodon account: 2022-12-22
found out i was a girl: 2022-12-22
(former was causal to the later)
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!

someone recommended making a No Hello site but for dating apps and i might need to register my 70th domain
wake up babe new nordvpn ad just dropped
cool cool cool my phone now autocorrects an to ai
people keep asking me questions that my "this tshirt makes people ask me questions i cant answer" shirt should already answer
if i link someone to something i self host, i mention it gives me access to find out their ip address and they could use a vpn if they were concerned about privacy
anyway ive started to think this gives off “not involved in human trafficking tshirt” vibes because nobody has ever found me mentioning this remotely normal or reassuring

it used to be old -> new in order of when I stole saved the meme but now a lot of the older memes are at the bottom (heh) and it's messed up my mental search model and i can't help but think that some of them have gone missing
here's one i couldn't find a couple days ago when i really needed it
anyway thanks for listening, like and subscribe and dont forget to smash the notification bell
it’s weird that youtube channels owned by private equity firms have patreons that still exploit the personal, parasocial relationship
excited to see this expand to mutual aid
reddit asks “how can i convince my wife to let me replace our Roku stick with a HTPC”
go back in time and marry a tgirl, to begin with she wouldn’t have let you buy the Roku and most models include a Thinkpad accessory and by the way you’re running Arch now
a different person said i was “upsettingly sweet, like american white bread” and i think there was an intentional racial implication there too
boy: “do you use a phone case?”
me, offended: “it’s like you’re not even paying attention to me, my case is clearly visible in my mirror selfies. are you not zooming in” 
seriously considering getting the custom license plate “NO T”
feels subtle. at least to me, a girl with the subtlety of a hyperactive dog
"americans have to pay for healthcare" is an offensive simplification of our refined-through-capitalism health system
so, yes, I have to pay over $2,000 USD a month for health care
and i'm responsible for 100% of the first $3,400 of care I receive each calendar year
and then 10%-30% of everything after that
BUT once I've spent a bit over $50,000 USD on healthcare in a calendar year - the rest is free! 100% free!!
... as long as the for-profit company involved thinks the service is necessary. and that I deserve it. and the claim doesn't get processed incorrectly. and the doctor is in the small group of providers the company is partnered with. and (🧵 1/69)
i told my therapist sometimes i work through problems myself without her help and i feel bad because it’s like pirating therapy, and now we meet twice a week
