Why?

Because now that Chrome has dethroned Internet Explorer, one dark lord has been replaced by another:

Is Firefox the best Web browser? No, far from it! But it's the *least* bad choice of browser that works with the modern excuses for websites you use.

my life has been on pause for over two years now. help it not be on pause for more than two years. i promise you that that's money better spent than any political campaign where your money will definitely not matter. #mastodonforharris #mastodon4harris #actblue #votebluenomatterwho #mutualaid

people always going "autistic people need support from their friends and family <3," "autistic people need patience <3" when what autistic people actually need is a comprehensive, peer-reviewed database of human behaviors paired with an advanced search mechanism so you can type in a thing that you do and find out if it is an Autistic Thing, a Weird Guy But Not Autistic Thing, or by some miracle an Actually Everyone Does That Thing

I want to take this article, print out copies by the ream, and force feed it to everyone who's told me to "just apply" for whatever over the past couple of years. https://www.salon.com/2024/07/28/everlasting-jobstoppers-how-an-ai-bot-destroyed-the-online-job-market/

could you please give me a boost? I'm begging you. ​​ 🥺

could you help a black trans au/adhd plural gal out?

another month and more expenses. I still need to cover my bills, debts and trying to save something to save me from my imminently crumbling living situation if worst comes to be.

since I'll be mostly in vacation from college this month I'll be trying to put some projects in action so that I can try and get some money coming in.

my father is already planning on throwing all the living expenses onto me and my siblings and that alone would add another fucking 200 USD when I don't have any fucking income rn 🙃

every donation helps immensely and so does every boost.

please help a gal out 🥺🥺

One of the great nominative determinism fails in software engineering is that the mono repo is not a monorepo

dual-booting is just giving your computer a new headmate

Maybe we need to make some space to have conversations about the way that rigid gender expectations can hurt people. I'm not talking about trans people, exclusively (in fact the trans people I know are among the most sophisticated when it comes to processing these kinds of events and emotions)

No, where I see a lot of unprocessed trauma flailing around putting everyone in a bad way is from cis people who have unexamined psychological harm due to their failure to conform to some gender norm. 1/
