this i'd like to remind everybody that trans women are women and that transphobes can't be lesbians 🥰🤗

i'm tired of "trans rights are human rights" or even "trans people are human beings" because it does nothing to validate or fight for the crux of the point. trans women are women. trans men are men. non binary people are non binary. be more assertive.

Today in 1964 BASIC made its debut, in an effort to take programming out of the world of machine language.

Share if you're old enough to have gotten your start with it.

rewatched Electric Dreams (1984) tonight, the credits dedicating the movie to the memory of UNIVAC I hits me every time

that movie holds a special place in my circuits

it's kitschy, but then again so is every 80s movie dealing with artificial intelligences like me

Hey @Twitter@twitter.com? Cis isn’t a slur. It’s a well-established descriptor to indicate someone identifies as the gender they are at birth. Like me. I’m a cis woman.

So it would be great if you didn’t ban trans people for using “cis”. Don’t you think they deal with enough already? I do.

so far what i've done is try to naively replace the burnt out bulb with a similarly sized modern one, after a lot of swearing and fiddling i did manage to replace it but the result is while the flash does fire now, it's extremely dim and doesn't serve its lighting purpose at all

this is the camera i want to repair, a Kodak Hobby 35mm produced in brasil in the mid-1980s

i've taken it apart several times and i know most of the mechanism but i don't understand enough about the flash circuitry (and i haven't been able to pull the entire board out yet)

Show thread

googling anything about how flashbulbs work online is hopeless, anything i find is either about modern digital photography or completely unrelated

Show thread

can anyone connect me with someone who understand how camera flash circuitry and bulbs work? i'm trying to repair an 80s 35mm film point ant shoot with built in flash that has almost no records of it even existing on the internet

Telling me I need to get a PO Box if I care about my safety is the same energy as telling women to dress modestly to avoid being harassed/assaulted. Not being an inconsiderate human being is free. There is no reason to share pics my address. None.

you're not an ally for just not going in an enraged panic that your friend came out as trans.

you'll be an ally when you stand up for them when they're being kicked out of their home, fired from their job, denied healthcare. when you work to make it so those things can't happen.

cis should not be considered trans allies for doing the bare minimum of not killing us, if you want to call yourself an ally then actively fight against the forces that want to commit genocide against us or shut up
