It's passport photos day, so I did the makeup thing, and put on a bra with an underwire‡, and everything.

My hair was still a bit damp as we were about to leave so wifey suggested blow-drying. The right side of my head now has the volume of a '90s teen girl left unsupervised with a can of hairspray.

I went in looking like this (blurred for eye contact).

The passport photo is god-awful. I didn't know it was possible to make my jaw look that big.

‡ We hates it precious!

Thanks. Also, that totally checks out because my mom was a professional artist & I swear to god I'm looking more like her every day.

I know people with estrogen have said their ADHD gets worse during perimenopause/menopause, but I'm wondering if people with testosterone 50+ also notice their Autism/ADHD symptoms getting worse. Especially more "inattentive"/stuck in their thoughts.

I feel like we really need more research on all of this.

@KitMuse @actuallyautistic @neurodiversity I'm 50, trans-femme recently restarting hormones, ADHD, & Autistic so I think i can speak to a lot of these.

estrogen drops during perimenopause & i've gone from basically none to too much recently. I don't think i'm any more or less stuck in my thoughts than before hormones.

My autism symptoms do feel worse BUT I've also been doing a lot of work unmasking work, & listening to 🧠's needs, & feeling / being percieved as "more autistic" is normal then.

I have decided to give the cat some supervised grass eating time.

She was scratching at the back door with envy while watching the dog lounge in the sun.

A beige and gray Maine Coon cat stocks through grass and dandelions in search of the tastiest blades of grass to consume. There are some steps with gray treads and white risers behind her

Just got off the phone with my parents and it’s amazing how prevalent the myth of immunity debt has become. Sad.

@andymoose “immunity debt”? What’s that

@andymoose people.... believe this ⁉️

Further evidence that the US education system is no longer capable of teaching anything beyond elementary school level math & reading skills.

I wonder how long it would take me to learn programming well enough to be able to make the things I want to work the way I want

masukomi,
@masukomi@connectified.com avatar

@misc I am an experienced programmer. I watched my wife learn to program and answered her occasional questions. Time And again, I would hear her suddenly say “that’s it!?”

I have been doing this for nearly 30 years and mentored many people. I swear to you there is no magic. It is a collection of simple patterns combined an interesting ways.

I would say that there is a degree of specialization in “genre” of coding: web development, mobile development, embedded device dev, etc.

masukomi,

@misc all of that is to say that it will take far less time than you think.

If, for example, you are thinking about mobile development, you should easily be able to make “functional” apps in less than new year. How much less depends on how much time you have to devote to practice.

There is a bit of a gap between it technically does what I want, and it looks, feels, and behaves the way I want while doing that.

@misc admittedly, that last bit involves a lot of yelling at your computer. THings like "what the !#$&*| Do you want from me?!" as a result of framework features that were released half-baked, or with crap / no documentation, or seem to have a glaringly obvious missing feature that really, really should have been included.

@pencilears if you have not tried Pioneer Woman’s “Cowboy Quiche” recipe, and aren’t a verse to meat I would highly recommend you give it a shot
