Thesis: “I am sending you a picture from when you were 4 years old.”
Anti-thesis: “Please do not, it will be distressing to see that.” (Have you heard a single word I’ve been saying for 5 years?!)
Synthesis: “Thank you, feel free to send any more you have, I love to get them!” …So that I can ensure they are properly destroyed…
Cis parents stop sending their trans children photos of early childhood deadself challenge: impossible.
@imsnif @hpj Had to share this one… ;-)
Honestly one of the more rad things I’ve seen on this coding spurt: replace a solid-color-image cell with a text cell set to the RGB color, such that the glyphs behind it can bleed through. Still plain xterm.
@imsnif @hpj
Surprise! :-)
Somehow I’ve been able to code again lately, it’s been nice. Hope you are having some good moments too.

Today’s discourse has me genuinely curious what the transfem (ONLY transfem please) folks around here know about internalized transmisogyny brainworms. Can someone point me to a list, or name some here?
Not trying to stir up stuff, just super out of the loop and would welcome the insights.

It’s been a fun weekend. I got #lcxterm resurrected and this time cleanly restarted on codeberg. Honestly if LCXterm had existed, I probably would never have written #qodem.
It has a ways to catch up to the last seven years of terminal innovations, but it can still fill in some gaps right now. Here we have it demonstrating how the GPM feature request for #zellij might look.
Feature request: GPM support on text consoles · Issue #2952 · zellij-org/zellij
When trying to select text using a mouse in a graphical terminal (i.e. Kitty), it works perfectly as expected and the selection stays confined within its own pane. However, when trying to use the o...
On a more positive note, I found tons of stuff I liked in the anime and comics stores I visited.
* The "how to sex while trans" area having a copy of Fucking Trans Women.
* The "when my spouse transitions" area having a copy of Reaching For Hope, and *not* having any copies of the books authored by the tme partner of said marriage.
* The books about drag being shelved in a wholly different section than the books about transition. (Bonus: the biopics about fucking RuPaul being shelved within the gay men section.)
* Physical copies of *any* fiction written by trans women post-2020.
* Any book at all about trans women that acknowledges the existence of asexual trans women.
* Books about growing up as a trans woman shelved alongside books about growing up as a cis woman.

Suffice it to say, I typically exit queer/feminist bookstores feeling more alone than when I entered them.
Not all of them, but the heavy hitters.
"Men’s investment in transmisogyny is easily understood, but transmisogynistic women, especially GC women, display an interesting aspect to theirs. To a degree, the idea that a male person could ever experience misogyny, actual misogyny like they do, is existentially terrifying. A world where patriarchy is natural, biological, and absolute is an unfair world, an unhappy world, but it is still a world with order. A world where even male anatomy doesn’t guarantee a freedom from misogynistic violence, where gender is proven to be unstable and revocable, confronts them with the reality that their place in the gender hierarchy is only so stable, too."
"The tranny is a reminder of how women with no reproductive utility are treated, and the idea that they could share a classification with us—that it is possible for them to be considered the same kind of thing as us—is unconscionable."
