Happy International Transgender Day of Visibility!
We're everywhere and we're cool.

Here's the trans pride flag 🏳️‍⚧️ on a mid-90s Pentium running DOS.

The fact that the GTK.AboutDialog has parameters specifically for crediting developers, translators, and artists speaks so much about the ecosystem.

Software created by people for people. That's the future in this sloppy world.
