can't find the post I made about this before or I'd just boost that
but it is kind of fuckin weird that our words for "man who is like a woman" (femboy) and "woman who is like a man" (tomboy) both center around the concept of "boy," which under normal circumstances means "child"
Some landscape renders made with Bryce 3D come by on Mastodon this week and it reminded me of the first landscape renderer I used: VistaPro.
It was was one of many DOS programs on the "Virtual Reality Madness" compilation disc from 1993. VistaPro also came out on Amiga and Mac OS, and later Windows.
VistaPro (v1.01) didn't give you much control but the results looked stunning then, if you allowed your computer to render the highest quality image for a few hours that is.
This afternoon, Columbia University brought in New York police arrest over a hundred students who were occupying the campus in solidarity with Palestinians. In response, a much bigger wave of student demonstrators has occupied the university. Tonight, the occupation continues, stronger than ever.
Students—you can do this, too, wherever you are.

I was just informed that the Guardian is prepping to do a story on DIY HRT and is looking to interview trans folk, particularly teens.

Be safe out there fam

Did you know? I curate a gallery of procedural artworks by various demosceners — each piece was rendered by an executable program no larger than 4096 bytes:
I made a new Mastodon bot, called "I Hope This Email Finds You.” Twice a day it proposes a novel way to conclude that sentence. (It uses phrases from Google Books that include the phrase “finds you.”) I've been having fun reading these, so I turned it into a bot because you, too, might have fun reading them. https://botsin.space/@thisemailfindsyou/112295528875440987
