Ok, I recognize that since starting HRT, I have reclaimed Bitch Mode, (estrogen, my old friend, how I've missed you), and I am crankier than advertised. So, perhaps my morning of aggravation is not so severe that it requires me to call in tactical airstrikes on #Dell and #Microsoft...but it just might.

Back in 2011, #UEFI Secure Boot, a mechanism for verifying PC bootloaders to ensure that unverified software can’t be loaded at startup was added to #Windows. It became a formal system requirement for installing Windows starting with Windows 11 in 2021.

#SecureBoot has relied on the same security certificates to verify bootloaders since 2011. But those original certificates are set to expire today, 06/24/2026.

I am far more bitchy off of HRT than on it

@burnoutqueen I think my default state is "angry and doing something about it", after my hysterectomy, I was so placid and pliable. Now, with estrogen back, I feel like me. I'm going chase some people with a slipper, I tell you what. ;)

@MissConstrue

So, long story. I'm transgender, mtf.

Before I began hormonal transition, I was just miserable all the time and I took it out on others.

After I began estrogen, I feel more well adjusted and I behave like it too.

@burnoutqueen My daughter is a transwoman, and it kills me that getting estrogen for her is so hard. We live deep in the heart of Yeehawdist territory, and Texas is aggressively punishing transpeople. I'm saving as much as I can so I can get her out of here.

@MissConstrue

It's hard for me in Tennessee as a trans woman. My insurance doesn't cover my estrogen
