Here's a question that shouldn't be too controversial here:

What Linux distribution should I install and why?

Please boost I'm super curious I'd love to learn what's out there now.

I want a city builder where you start with a super dense car-ridden city and you have the challenge to build in green spaces and public transit and stuff to increase the happiness of the residents.

If you’re a trans woman considering not transitioning because your kids will (as someone today lamented to me) “lose the dad they need,” consider instead that not transitioning is denying them the mom (or trans parent of any label) they deserve. #trans

I don’t know who needs to hear this but when you’re putting that potato masher away make sure it’s not going to get the drawer stuck.

If every trans person vanished tomorrow, every single transphobic troll mocking trans women online would just keep doing the exact same thing to cis women and other minority groups.

We are just the easiest target. #trans

Water is a molecule with two hydrogens and an oxygen. Sometimes, instead of hydrogen it has deuterium, which has an extra neutron. This is heavy water.

It’s a kind of water because, while rare, it naturally occurs and when it’s in the mix it all acts, looks, and reacts just like “normal” water. We didn’t know what we called water was mostly “light water.” We learned there’s more than one kind, and that’s neat.

Heavy water is water.

This is a post about #trans people.

I took a selfie and was looking for one to compare it to and saw I wore nearly the exact same outfit in October

So yeah not much of a difference here but it’s still funny to me 😂

Honestly I had considered making a video of how I do my hair routine, which folks usually do wearing a bathing suit, but I'm not sure the fediverse is ready for that.

We fucked up, the internet was supposed to be a fun weird thing with hamsters dancing and now it’s a thing where you pay bills and your boss spies on you

If you ever make the mistake of thinking I’m cool please consider that I just spent 30 minutes in a bra and an inflatable hair dryer sorting legos

Oh here's my hair routine by the way:

1. Shampoo and massage scalp (https://www.sheamoisture.com/jamaican-oil-strengthen-shampoo/764302215837/)

2. Condition with tons of conditioner, rake through hair to evenly spread and then rinse out (Trader Joe's Tea Tree Condition; work's great, dirt cheap)

3. Fill a plastic bowl with water in the shower

4. Work in leave-in conditioner (Kinky-Curly Knot Today https://kinky-curly.com/shop.php)

5. Dip hair into bowl and then scrunch the water and conditioner out

6. Add curl cream (https://notyourmothers.com/products/curl-talk-defining-cream), dip into the same bowl and scrunch out 3-4 times

7. Get a giant handful of mousse and scrunch it in (https://notyourmothers.com/collections/curl-talk/products/curl-talk-activating-mousse) while holding my head forward and side to side

8. Get out of the shower, holding my head forward still

9. Diffuse by hovering the diffuser over my hair for 5-10 minutes

10. Diffuse for another 15 min normally

11. Scrunch after air drying for an hour or two

I wish I could tell people who call being trans a choice what it feels like I chose.

I wish they knew everything I chose to gave up. I gave up security and stability: financially, politically, romantically, medically, physically. I wish they knew the things that broke and can’t be fixed and the hurt and pain I can't take back.

They’re right, I chose all of that. But it wasn’t the choice to start pretending I'm someone I'm not, but the choice to stop.

I think programming is like running a dishwasher. It always takes longer than you think and some stuff is never as clean as you expected it to be.
