You know what would be cool? Being friends with a trans woman my own age.

I think there are only 2 trans women I'm actually close with, and one of them's >10yrs older than me and the other's > 10 years younger than me.

I'm not sure I've even *seen* any trans women my age (early 50s) here on fedi. I hope there are some. 🤞

I just feel kind-of isolated. You know?

Anyway. If there are any 50ish yr old trans women out there looking for a friend… 👋

One of our driveway trees fell over in the windstorm the other day. We are in the middle of trying to stand it back up. Dachary is heading off to Home Depot to get rope.

(Home Depot - ICE supporting fucks - is the only hardware store within an hour of here)

Hopefully it won’t try falling over in the opposite direction.

It is staying up. We’ll see how long.

@hellomiakoda yeah. I had to stop playing it because it was just stressing me out.

What, the fuck, are Japanese people doing with their tongues for "emotional bonding" where a robotic tongue would be an acceptable substitute?

Like, i 100% see how the adult toy industry could benefit from this, but the idea of a robot licking me for "emotional bonding" is a full-on "hell no".

Figured i should probably bring this to a larger audience. For those who don't know, programming by voice is absolutely possible if you have physical issues and it's not horrible either.

With the help of Talon you can handle any weird punctuation - OR - custom words which is also useful if you're a fiction writer.

I support Talon on Patreon as a form of insurance. I want it to be around in case I need it some day.

Golly who could have ever predicted this?

@hellomiakoda Why not just a phone with cell stuff disabled?

My Google Pixel works great and has no phone number or cell service attached.

A trans woman followed me.

She's a programmer. 🤦♀️

WHY ARE WE ALL PROGRAMMERS?! WTF?! 😫

The venn diagram of trans women and programmers is soooo close to being a circle.

🤔 I wonder what it is for trans men. Are they all programmers too?

Obviously I need more trans men in my life because I'm currently sitting at zero.

Just found out our old black dog has kidney stones. 🙀

Poor thing

@hellomiakoda 🤦♀️ stupid phone.

Although, in its defense buying tires is even more expensive than tits. So maybe I should be more excited about them.

Tits'll last you a lifetime. Tires… not so much.

@hellomiakoda wait . What? Who? There were tires available?! I’m happy with mine, but i wouldn’t say no to more.

(Always wanting more boob: the true trans agenda)

@cwebber Yes! this! 100% this. The junior will at least build up institutional and domain knowledge and get better every year & can use their own 🧠 to help guide choices instead of blindly doing what's asked even if it'll make things worse.

PLUS you get to feel good about giving someone insurance and a house and food.

there's NO downside.

No-one expects to find themselves living in a repeat performance of 1930-1940s Germany 🇩🇪 and no-one with a conscience seems to know how to stop it.

Being one of the targeted folks is stressing me out. Especially since no country has offered us asylum yet. The US is still considered “safe” officially.

@hellomiakoda 🤔 I could 3D Print you something along those lines. I'm thinking raised letters against an background of a contrasting color.

@hellomiakoda Pretty sure you wouldn't be the only one. The only question is if this would help or hinder. 🤔

Related to this. I firmly believe that the environmental effects on coffee plantations are quite possibly our best hope for getting politicians off their asses to actually do something about Climate Change.

It'll be far too late of course, but I think we'll see real policy change as soon as we start having coffee shortages.

Not the greatest place for it - I still need to get a frame - but there's a piece of @Lyra_silvertail 's art where I can see it from my desk now.
