you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

If you’re being rejected or even ghosted responding to job offers you’d be perfect for, it’s not you. Apparently there’s a new trend of companies putting up fake vacancies for appearance’s sake. A bizarre and unethical practice. wsj.com/articles/that-plum-job

[Daniel Plainview voice] Ladies and gentlemen, if I say my tummy hurts, you will agree.

I'm recording an one-off episode of my video game podcast, 25c, with @ultranurd, who's had one for a bit, to see if he can convince me to order a @playdate. If you've got one, why did you buy a #Playdate? #videogames Subscribe to hear the episode later this week: 25c.goodstuff.network/subscrib

@kiry I've been pissed at MaxFun ever since the folks at the network unceremoniously shitcanned John Roderick

I don't want to give their host network any more money because fuck em, but I do love this MBMBaM sticker...

Bid here if you’re interested! ebay.com/itm/295575038772

selfies, trans musings (+) 

Different poses but both happy mid-run photos. March 2019 vs February 2023. 29 months on HRT vs 64 months. Something’s different around my eyes (other than glasses, haw haw) and mouth/jaw. I’m about 15lbs heavier now but a lot of that is muscle. I dunno. Being trans is WEIRD.

@TheInfamousGdub Aaron, of all the men I know in my life, I think I admire you most. I’m so glad that you’re you, and I’m grateful for the parts of yourself that you share. The ups and downs. The growth, the effort. Also you’re funny as fuck and a sharp dresser. Happy 40th, and may the year ahead bring you comfort, delight, and triumph.
