The final part of my #trans #comingout narrative, Opening the Black Box, is now up. For all the terror, uncertainty, worry--all of it--this day was the day that built the foundation of the woman I would become, and I will never be able to tell my wife how grateful I am for her love.
I promise that I didn't plan out a happy ending for the day after Christmas. It just... sort of worked out unexpectedly. Which, I suppose, is exactly how this particular story ought to end.

I had pumpkin pie and a croissant, so no accusing fingers from this section.
Iβm now varying my diet. Instead of mince pies for breakfast, I had some all butter Scottish shortbread with my first coffee of the day.
@getimiskon @Scott1984FP@mastodon.social Everyone has something that just hits them wrong, or hits them at the wrong time, and they overreact. I know I've done it, and I've always felt like a big ol' jackass after.
@peachfront They may have just been passing through, looking for a new home.
In CA it's illegal to destroy a hive, so the guy came in and collected them all, to set up house somewhere else.

I had a bee swarm in my yard several years ago, and had to hire someone to come in and get them after they set up house in a vent coming from the downstairs bathroom. The guy said our yard was a bee magnet with fountains (fresh water) and lots of flowering plants.
@M_U@toot.community @rossbright I haven't done the math myself, but I've been told it's about $80 - $85 per share, so it's still overvalued at $124, assuming that's true.
So much talk about Elon Muskβs wealth drop off in the last 12 months due to a downturn in market pressures as well as other economic, labour and manufacturing problems.
But here is Tesla, Ford and GMβs stock price.
Note that stock prices moving roughly in tandem until mid-October when Musk's impending takeover of #twitter is finalised and then ... a huge drop off.
@rossbright It's almost as if investors are worried about his management skills.

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
