If you, as a cis person, want to know what growing up as a trans woman in this society is like, one manifestation of the trauma is in becoming a fully grown human and still, in many cases, having the nagging belief that everyone sees you as a predator, maybe even other trans people, despite all of the kindness and grace you have done your very best to practice.

And yes, all of these recent state laws will hurt another generation that way.

for how much minidisc is constantly labeled a "failure" that "never took off", i think 21 years is a pretty good production run for a media format

another pixel portrait going out to Cass of @BadGameHOF@twitter.com / https://www.badgamehalloffame.com/ ! i couldn't decide on a background, so this one gets two variants!

you can get portraits like these and more if you just head on down to https://maple.pet/commissions !

if any mutuals are still being scammed by Discord and losing money on Nitro then you should send money to my ko-fi instead because i need to survive more than you need animated emoji https://ko-fi.com/squirrel

i make open source tech tools and toys: https://maple.pet/tech

i started the netizen club and the link cache, to help my yearning for a simpler internet: https://links.netizen.club/

i'm looking for work. if you know anyone who needs someone with 8+ years professional experience plumbing nearly any sort of bespoke tech, talk to me.

Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer

today computerfairi.es is 6 years old and going strong! thanks to our admin @arielmt and mods @LaserScheme and @troubleMoney for keeping the dream alive

i founded computer fairies roughly this day 6 years ago, give or take initial federation growing pains. in the first week we had an issue with the host, which i managed to fix through ssh from my phone while sitting at an university class, which made me feel very badass indeed

i'm electively no longer part of the staff but i'm glad i started this corner of the internet and i'm delighted it's still existing to this day

was anybody going to tell me ESA was gearing up to launch the JUpiter ICy moons Explorer on Homestuck Day or was i meant to find that out on my own

ah looks like it's "check that discord hasn't defaulted/randomized all of your settings again" day

"you fucking idiot the earth isn;t flat" quipped the intellectually superior reddit incel, before tabbing back to his pirated copy of Adobe NoeffortWebsiteDesigner to add more flat and lifeless Material Design to his crypto-backed AI app that is about to be defunct in the coming 3 months

cis people owe me $50 each today #transdayofvisibility
