Yes, it's true -- I was dating Bubsy.

You know that Dril tweet about the candles?

While we were still together, I was doing budgeting with my ex, and pointed out that they were spending a huge amount of money on yarn. It cut into our savings. Sometimes they were late on utilities because they didn't have enough money. I'd have to beg them to chip in on basic purchases for the house, like a table or rice cooker.

When I was homeless and they owed me money, they were still on Instagram, posting about buying more yarn.

Everything is needlessly more complicated when you're trans and legally change your name, and cis people will always be there to explain why it must be so, even though cis women who take the name of their spouse don't experience nearly as many problems.

Cis designed packers: Bland bandaid colors, the size of an Arizona ice tea, so hard you can can hammer nails with it, not particularly fun to wear while fucking

Trans designed packers: Neon tie dye swirl, actually able to fit in your pants, squeezably squishy, has stuff on the back so you can, like, feel a little something while you're goin' to town

This family needs 20k to get their dad out of ICE detention:

I just started listening to Lil Nas X's album.

Fuck, F9mily is good too.

If Michael Crichton was alive, he'd 1000% write a novel about BitCoin.

Like, a BitCoin theme park, where cryptocurrency runs amok

If I were an English teacher and somebody handed this in to me as homework, I would fail them just for having so many formatting mistakes.

If you're wondering why I'm using Word...I am too!

Sometimes the text is in the wrong font size

Sometimes Word randomly decides to switch to Times New Roman

Sometimes Word doesn't register that you've unclicked a text selection, and the cursor goes zooming away

Sometimes keystrokes aren't registered at all

Word loves to grab onto imaginary whitespace to the left of words, so you have to constantly adjust text selections, and add spaces after you're done

Casing is inconsistent

Quotes used instead of bold or italics

Commas? Periods?

July 11 is the day we celebrate the conquest of the Iberian peninsula, ushering in the Golden Age that lasted from 711 until the extremely, extremely cursed year of 1492

The perfect band name is already taken, and it was Teenage Jesus and the Jerks

The annoying thing about being in tech is you don't know how formal or informal to be.

Motherfucker senior devs from Stanford will be in cargo shorts and busted t-shirts and not tipping.

Wtf do you wear to an interview?

How gay can you get away?

Can I add an emoji to this email?

Why did they add an emoji to that email?

What do I make of this 40 year old program manager adding multiple exclamation marks to this Trello board task?

Who the fuck knows! It's tech! Weeee!

90s gangsta rap radio edits like "Murder murder murder [censor 'shit'] murder murder"

GIT EXISTS.

I COULD BE DOING THIS SO MUCH FASTER IN MARKDOWN.
