Peter Thiel is my favorite billionaire because he's what the villain would be in a particularly hamfisted communist cyberpunk novel, but he exists in real life
It's official. The stereotype about trans men is that we're all werewolves now. If you feel left out, don't fret; you just have to get bit by a transwolf to join the club.
I don't feel excluded by trans programmer catgirl stereotypes, but I [i]do[/i] feel excluded by laws that specifically discriminate against me, and stuff like being afraid to use changing rooms at the local rec center, or go outside without a binder on, so...
Petition to start trans programmer werewolf stereotype for trans men
I am personally very offended by the trans programmer catgirl stereotype. How dare they make fun of my girlfriend
Every few months, we as trans must ritually re-enact the 70s-80s feminist sex wars discourse
Finally, Farfetch'd gets their due!!!

A friend suggested today that it's time for a manifesto and I agree. Another friend in another conversation mentioned that "free software" and "open source" are not relevant terms for what we need. I also agree.
It's time for something new. A new, community-centered ecosystem.

I'm increasingly of the opinion that the way forward for us is to build a dual-purpose Commons: one where our communities can freely partake and share and collaborate and learn and build each other up, while those who seek to profit on their own terms put cold hard cash down.

I'm entirely in favor of building an altruistic Commons where people aren't counting pennies of value at each other to make sure everyone got their exact right share and instead focusing on everyone's needs.
But fuck if a CTO is gonna tell me that's what Rails is doing.

Milo Y just got deplatformed at a furry convention, and I figured this would be the appropriate venue to pass my thanks to the furry community
Cis people treat trans people as disposable.
My ex didn't give a shit about paying me money they owed me until 2 years later, when I had a high-paying apprenticeship. They didn't really care when I was homeless though. No wonder I stayed in that relationship, since they're the same as my garbage family.
The best part is, the lies started once I got a good job. When I was literally dumpster diving for food, nobody gave a shit about bothering me.
And before that, during Christmas break...being contacted by my sister about my mom being hospitalized, no details on with what, no messages, then a week later my mom is abruptly fine and nobody has any information on what was going on. If I sound paranoid it's because of shit like this. Absolute garbage people.
