it is fucking _weird_ to be only 37 years old but yet to be a trans elder on account of having transitioned in the early 2000s.

and even weirder that we've regressed to policies worse than what existed around when I did the medical/legal parts of my transition.

What’s a cybersecurity myth that you believed at some point?

About 30 years ago I believed that you could be 100% secure. That’s hilarious when I think about it now.

I sometimes bump into people that believe their posture is bulletproof, until it isn’t.

Kendrick going to therapy and coming back and choosing violence does not surprise me. Therapy did not make me nicer but it did make me unapologetic and very cunty!
