Please consider contributing to The Recompiler. It's paid. The current issue is about "Hard Problems":

Have you heard this one before? “There are only two hard problems in computer science: cache invalidation, naming things, and off-by-one errors.” The idea for our next issue started when your editor was talking to someone who said, “you could do a whole issue on timezones.” So yes, why not?

I'm doing a lecture at a family medicine clinic, on meeting #trans ppl in a health care setting. I'd love some input on what you'd like my colleagues to know - good and bad experiences etc. This goes especially for enbies, since you make up a significant part of the trans population, but my personal experience is limited, being binary myself. Send me a message here on Mastodon, or email me at dimduningcanhazpdf@gmail.com. Thank you! Feel free to boost!

Btw after finishing Ninefox Gambit (it's nice! Weird but nice!), my current falling asleep audiobook is The Magicians and I'm not expecting much (watched the TV adaption and liked it a lot even though parts of it aren't great, and what I've heard of the books makes me think I'll probably hate them), but so far it's fun, except for the detailed descriptions of Quentin's desire for Julia. /o\

Also I have no idea what became of the Carmilla Zookeeper AU. No I'm not going to check now, I'm going to sleep, but that was wonderful (and it's so sad that I always forget to read new chapters of everything when they happen).

Okay, basically all you have to know about my taste in fanfiction is

I was unironically sad that a certain thing called "Battlestar Orphan Blacktica" never got longer than 4 chapters, I really enjoyed it.

And I haven't​ changed much since. ^-^

Vulgãr

Perhaps you need a constructed language, but don’t want to build one from scratch. Vulgãr is a complete language generator.

While the conlang community produces a lot of software tools to make the process easier, most are built around the idea that the user wants to guide the process. Vulgãr is aimed more for the people who want a constructed language without the heavy lifting.

Does anyone know/is anyone learning Czech right now? It's not on Duolingo so I'm looking for other apps that might be useful.

Remus and Sirius are being very cute, and I'm sad that I'm not the kind of person who is cute with anyone. I mean how. How do you do people things. I don't even talk to people on the internet much. And some people just interact with people in meatspace and aren't awkwardly distant. It's all really weird.

"You do lots of things beautifully. Yelling the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody is not one of them."
1. that is so mean Moony!!
2. I didn't know I'd appreciate the mental image of Sirius yelling the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody that much 🐕

Ohmygod. I have 7 chapters of Of Leaves and Stars to read. This is not a bad thing but I am not exactly a Reading Cat currently!!

🇫🇷 Je prévois de construire mon premier deck Standard et j’avoue que je pourrais bénéficier d’un peu d’aide. Vous avez des conseils à me donner ?

🇬🇧 I'm planning to build my first Standard deck and I admit that I could need a little help. Have you some advice to give me?

Oooh Remus and Sirius are kissing

It was a good decision to finally read something again

i can’t believe i’m saying this, but i’m 9 days from being homeless. no one will rent to us. we’re not being evicted, but have to be out of the place we’ve lived for 12.5 years at the end of the month. if anyone knows of a place where 3 adults can live that’s safe for a transgender woman in the NJ/NY area, please let me know.
