This is like if, a few times a week for 8 years, you had canned peas and used a screwdriver to mangle the can open every time Then one day you thought "there has to be a better way to do this" and googled it and the search results were like "........ can opener."
You'd fucking cry, I promise.
After 8 years of silent frustration any time I needed to cycle between two directories in the Linux terminal, using cd repeatedly for each dir or using pushd popd and repeatedly typing out one, I have finally discovered ' cd - '. It was that simple. It was right there the whole time. Eight. Years.

Remember, the difference between using a 32-bit value and a 64-bit value when storing timer interrupt ticks could be a maximum system time of about 12 hours or almost 6 million years

I actually look forward to spending many more years here with it. Thank you to everyone who supported me through that process. You helped save my life, and for that I will be eternally grateful 💜
depression for the first time since I was like 12. I can't put into words what a privilege it has been to be connected to the body I live in and to be able to experience it as a home and not a prison. My life is universally better because of this new equipment and for the first time in a long time,
Vagination day!!
It's been one year since my bottom surgery; a thing that quite literally saved my life. I couldn't be more grateful for the body I have now, nor the people who rallied to help me get it. For the last year, I've had the privilege of experiencing life without suicidal levels of
A dog staring eyes-closed into the setting sun. The dog's peaceful demeanor is evocative of the feeling "I see what's about to happen here and, while I'm just about at my wit's end, I've accepted my fate regardless."

Forced to continually work to cleanup the aftermath of the aforementioned and take it upon myself to write a styleguide for our company so future devs have less of a dumpster fire to grapple with and I don't have to watch anyone make horrendous coding/stylistic choices again
Born 10-20 years too late to create software from a foundational level using whatever quirky, fun and wholly inconsistent paradigms and styling rules my little heart desires, with wanton disregard for how this will affect code readability, scalability or maintainability in the future
Shout-out to my roommate for being literally the only person on this soul-sucking, empty void of a platform that actually seems to hear me screaming my best work into it

Take a moment to "they/them" a she/they in your life today! Just pepper that shit in there. Make a bitch feel seen! 💜
was surprised to see upon returning to the superfan announcement that I only made it about 40 seconds in before pausing to go subscribe. Love that I get to support! 💜
Always. This literally happened to me a month ago
Oh hell yeah slay diva 💅🏻🤌🏻🙌🏻
Oh, sure, when a cat runs around screaming with a turd hanging out of its ass after a great shit, it's totally normal, but when I do it, it's "indicative of a serious underlying psychiatric condition".
But also let's be clear: none of those people that he's offered to pay for "leaving voluntarily" are actually going to see a penny
The irony in announcing you're going to shell out thousands of dollars to non-citizens while in the same breath cutting funding from critical gov't infrastructure that serves US citizens and claiming it's because the government is spending too much money too frivolously is so thick I'm choking on it
The hope is that my insurance company will pay me back once it starts working again, but if they don't, I will be in a pretty bad situation. I'm keeping the GoFundMe up for now in case that happens, but in the meantime I am eagerly and nervously preparing for my bottom surgery on January 22nd! 💜
Surgery update: through some questionable financial choices, I was able to secure my surgery date. Thank you so, so much to all who donated for your help in making this possible!! I can't describe how relieved I am.
Oh also I basically have two more days to secure these funds, as the hospital requires payment two weeks in advance 🙃
Hi all,
I'm once again asking for help. My insurance company isn't providing me with an insurance plan, even though I'm paying for one.
Unless I can pay out-of-pocket, I will lose my surgery date. My life depends on this surgery.
Please share this link however you can.
Thanks 💜

I can't see any of the comments on this post for some reason, but I wanted to thank everyone who has donated, shared, reposted, liked, etc. There are only a handful of you, but please know I'm so grateful for you 💜
Please help. My insurance company is in breach of contract and while I've gotten them to fix the issue before, I don't have enough time to get them to fix it before my surgery gets cancelled.

It's 2025? That's fucked.
The loose cannon in my pfp is Moose. Look her. Look her dumb face. She's exquisitely unhinged.
I have never resonated with another creature so much in terms of personality.
