GenX US midwestern AuDHD trans lesbian Python dev in Quantum Computing. Lefty nonevangelical ✝︎

Just trying to get by, skating on good vibes. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

If you know me in real life, please don’t out me.

Signal: @QuantumDev.01

ChatGPT ward: Jonathan Zittrain

Introduction 🧵

I’m an old Midwestern white trans lesbian. I write software for a quantum computing startup. I have multiple overlapping flavors of neurodivergence.

I was raised by television in the 80s, so I’m nostalgic for pop culture of that era.

I take too much at face value.

my favorite Christmas song is this version of “all I want for Christmas is you“ that Mariah Carey did with the roots and Jimmy Fallon on children’s instruments, with a handful of actual children, and I’m gutted that they took it down and this is the only version i can find

I’m a disabled homeless trans woman living in a motel in the short term. If anyone can help me out with funds to extend my stay and cover necessities, I would be immensely grateful. My links are in my bio. 💕💸💸💕

A reminder in particular to... well, you know who you are.

And also - the (ai-generated?) alt-text for gifs is often garbage. It only takes a minute to fix before you post.
I see people saying

“I would use alt text but I keep forgetting!”

Thankfully, @bsky.app has a setting for that.

- Go to Settings
- Then Accessibility
- Toggle “Require alt text before posting” to the active setting.

Now Bluesky will remind you to add alt text to all of your posts.

I am wearing my regular overalls with my regular high top sneakers, and my son told me that if I wore it with a red T-shirt, I would look like a toddler

y’all, I normally wear it with a red Hello Kitty T-shirt

supporting Caitlyn Jenner doesn’t make you anti-trans

if you have a favorite member of group X (who is generally considered a traitor by group X) because they are “one of the good ones“, then you’re anti-X

imagine saying “i’m not racist, i love Clarence Thomas” or “i’m not anti-gay, i love Milo Y”

like, sorry/not sorry i am capable of efficiently understanding humor

i am happy to be enthusiastic supporter of the things that i enjoy, but also, i can be a petty bitch

i’m not trying to be vindictive, so i’m not putting the particular show on blast, but it almost put me off of all of MaximumFun
there was a comedy podcast that i loved (and financially supported), but the delivery was languid

I listened to it at 2x, because I still caught all the jokes, and I had a lot of podcasts to listen to

one of the hosts said that you should only listen at 1x, so I stopped listening and supporting
"I watch all videos at 2x speed." And this is why you're incapable of understanding art and will only be able to consume "content" with a hunger that can never be satiated. People spend hours/days/weeks making videos and you can't even bother to actually watch them at normal speed?

Well... yeah. Video app culture being garbage is why a lot of people fast forward in the first place. Algorithms encourage people to make videos of things that didn't need to be videos and then pad them out for optimal engagement. The platform literally wants you to waste viewers' time.
This is a big part of why I just don't wanna "pivot to video." I know HOW to do it. I literally have a fucking Emmy trophy sitting behind me. But the entire culture around video-based apps is garbage. Why would I put any effort into that?
