Pinned post

Decided to update my pinned post but ALSO to let you all know that I'm sort of "unifying" my name across my forms; a different suffix for each.
Rivaclaw for Werewolf, Rivamon for Renamon. ^.^

Just got off the phone with my GP, he suggested that I self refer to the local GIC as it'll be quicker than waiting 2 weeks for us to meet again for an appointment to go through pretty much the same form, lol.

Gonna do that when I get home tonight! 💜🏳️‍⚧️

Long time coming but ahhhhh finally!!!
Those of you who knew me in the early 2000s, and knew I was trans back then (there are a couple of you), you were right. 💜💜

"there's no ethical consumption under capitalism", transphobia, JK rowling, i will not be arguing with anyone in the replies 

"there's no ethical consumption under capitalism" is true however it is not a free pass for you to give money to anti-trans organizations indirectly and still demand your trans friends' opinion of you to not change for the worse

What if a meltdown wasn't a "bad" thing, but a signal that you're having trouble coping with something? Or that you need something you're not getting?

the UNIX v4 tape reminded me of this story by Ali Akurgal about Turkish bureaucracy:

Do you know what the unit of software is? A meter! Do you know why? In 1992, we did our first software export at Netaş. We wrote the software, pressed a button, and via the satellite dish on the roof, at the incredible speed of 128 kb/s, we sent it to England. We sent the invoice by postal mail. $2M arrived at the bank. 3-4 months passed, and tax inspectors came. They said, “You sent an invoice for $2M?” “Yes,” we said. “This money has been paid?” they asked. “Yes,” we said. “But there is no goods export; this is fictitious export,” they said! So we took the tax inspectors to R&D and sat them in front of a computer. “Would you press this ‘Enter’ key?” we asked. One of them pressed it, then asked, “What happened?” “You just made a $300k export, and we’ll send its invoice too, and that will be paid as well,” we said. The man felt terrible because he had become an accomplice! Then we explained how software is written, what a satellite connection is, and how much this is worth. They said, “We understand, but there has to be a physical goods export; that’s what the regulations require.” So we said: “Let’s record this software onto tape (there were no CDs back then—nor cassettes; we used ½-inch tapes) and send that.” Happy to have found a solution, they said, “Okay, record it and send it.” The software filled two reels, which were handed to a customs broker, who took them to customs and started the export procedure. The customs officer processed things and at one point asked, “Where are the trucks?” The broker said, “There are no trucks—this is all there is,” and pointed to the tape reels on the desk. The customs officer said, “These two envelopes can’t be worth $2M; I can’t process this.” We went to court, an expert committee examined whether the two reels were worth $2M. Fortunately, they ruled that they were, and we were saved from the charge of fictitious export. The same broker took the same two reels to the same customs officer, with the court ruling, and restarted the procedure. However, during the process, the unit price, quantity, and total price of the exported goods had to be entered—as per the regulations. To avoid dragging things out further, they looked at the envelope, saw that it contained tape, estimated how many meters of tape there are on one reel, and concluded that we had exported 1k to 2k meters of software. So the unit of software became the meter.

A bit of a vanity project 😅
But hopefully it'll be helpful as a reference for stuff.
I really need to look up some proper tutorials and stuff for this sort of thing.
No real clue what I'm doing.

Here are the fullsuit pictures of Wello! The client was kind enough to do a little photoshoot for me using their phone and send it in. If I end up finding good pictures on FurTrack, I will post them here! 💙🧀

All of the triangle markings, including the smaller blue ones inside the ivory ones, were hand-sewn by me.

sometimes people brag about their mint condition hardware, but consider the following

what if your computer had character?

Snowmobiles... we missed an opportunity to name them "snopeds" instead.
