Friend came out to me as trans.
I didn't know what that means.
I Googled what it means and went, "... holy shit, there's a word for it." 😂

TRANS WOMEN OF BLUESKY:
What was your egg cracking moment?
When did you know you were trans? What made you realize?
And did you know you were a woman right away, or did you pass through other identities first

Found another doggo statue that's clearly been getting pets.
I need to see a study on people petting statues of Canidae ASAP. You know, the things that actually matter.

Me, jokingly, to a 19 year old: "[sighs] Kids these days..."
19 YO: "What the heck do you mean 'kids these days '? You're not that much older than I am!"
Me: "... Out of curiosity, how old do you think I am?"
19 YO: "I don't know. 22 or 23?"

sockscast goty recording is always a joy and the listener lists are a huge part of that!
We're down to just a little under a week to get your listener list submissions ready for the Sockscast Game of the Year spectacular!
Just follow the simple rules in the attached image or at the link below and you're in! It's SUPER EASY and SUPER FUN!
socksmakepeoplesexy.net/index.php?a=...

![It's very easy to do, the rules are the same as always!
1. Pick yourself three games you liked this year. They don't have to have been released this year! If you played it this year and enjoyed it then it's fair game. On your list it goes!
2. Write a small blurb about each game. A few sentences should be good, but let's not write entire IGN reviews here okay? We don't mind reading full paragraphs, but please be kind, these podcasts take us 7+ hours to record.
3. Email your submission to podcast [at-sign] socksmakepeoplesexy.net BY THE END OF DECEMBER 12TH. We'll be recording the Game of the Year episodes on around midday December 13th and 14th, so this is pretty easy to understand. You might have a little leeway if you're in after the deadline, but don't take your chances, because once the shows are recording, we're locked in!
4. For those of you who would like to read your own lists, the same rules as above apply. Three games, three blurbs, read it out, sing it out, whatever you wanna do, however you want! Keep it at under or around 5'ish minutes if you can! Create an .mp3 file, attach it to your email and just send it to the above email address.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ljpben527ucs2com44w67dxi/bafkreic4f5ytri32h653is2qk5y27o7ct4dyuvywjvavokc42xtregdz2u@jpeg)

Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

After MUCH procrastinating, the 2026 calendar is finally here. I enabled the free preview in case you don't have $20 to spare this year. Will finish the Lefty/Foster Dogs one tomorrow. 🎁

Spend an entire year with the goofballs at Blue Heron Farm. Sure, it's mostly goats, but you should see what they get up to.

I love this weird ad for Lockheed Martin recruitment.
"You didn't become an engineer to build push notifications", but you became an engineer to murder people???
Like... phone apps are more robust than that easily hacked software on their Sentinel drones.

Bluesky philosophers, I need your help.
Recently, I saw graffiti that read "Take away my gurl and I'll buy a boi", and this has left me puzzled for, like, the past 24 hours.
What could our street philosopher possibly mean by this? I must know! 😭

Gender Dysphoria is when you reveal Anor Londo's lies about the nature of society, have frustrations about getting left behind and enter your experimental phase like Gwyndolin, and then decide that hanging out with all the weirdos in the Painted World was more fun anyways.
