Xenia, the fox girl mascot of Linux, was first designed in 1996 by Alan Mackey. She was meant to be an alternative to Tux, the official mascot.
She had fallen into obscurity, but was noticed by a Twitter user in 2019 and was redrawn as a fox girl. But as it turned out, Xenia was originally meant to be male! The original creator, Alan, was cool with this, saying “It matches the transition of a lot of the smartest, nerdiest Linux users I know” and “And sure, you made her trans!”.
So now we have a trans Linux mascot. And I think that’s neat.

My friend just sent me a decade old photo of myself when I had a huge beard. Just wearing swim shorts. I’m having complicated feelings.
Like, idk… I’m handsome, but it’s okay to think you’re handsome and still want to transition. Sometimes feels like I’m fucking something up.
I mean, I look at recent photos of me in makeup/dresses, and I’m still handsome/pretty, but… Idk, it would’ve just been easier I guess.
Also I had super hairy legs. REALLY glad those are gone. I had actually forgotten what they looked like lol
I’ve had Disintegration by The Cure on CD for probably 15 years and didn’t find it again it until now 😲 (I knew I had Kiss Me x3 this whole time since I bought it at the same time but I don’t care much for that one)
Webfishing clocked both me and my sister. The first chest she opened awarded her the pan title, and the first chest I opened awarded me the bi title. How did it know these things? This doesn’t change the fact that I’m still going to run the Good Girl title though.
If I were to ever look at myself in the mirror and see a pretty person, I’m not sure if I’d have the emotional bandwidth to be able to control what happened next.
OH MY GOSH I almost forgot to mention some progress I made today. I was trying to set up Bluetooth in the car, and it always repeats certain phrases back at me. I dread it for this exact reason, and I’ve avoided setting it up until now with that being one of many reasons. However, it had to happen, so I went to do it and put on my best fem voice. Imagine my shock when it spits my voice back out at me, and it sounds like a mature woman! I don’t even know how I did it, and I don’t want to listen to it again in case it ruins what might be magic, but in that moment I felt such intense euphoria. I then enjoyed the convenience of having my music on Bluetooth while no longer having to deal with my static-ridden aux cable.

Gonna
and 
for a while, comrades. Got some things I need to do. Be back soon!
Make sure to keep the cis down in my absence. 
I miss the good old days when men would name their sons “Gaylord”
When you have to let your facial hair grow out for electrolysis 🤢
Lost so much shit since I started wearing women’s pants. I keep not bringing a purse because I think I won’t need it then I just feel my wallet slip out of my pocket after a minute of walking
My time’s gonna be limited going forward but getting the urge to do all 326 routes of shadow the hedgehog again, got reloaded 1.2 running on dolphin with the widescreen going. Got the added S ranks, got some tweaks, got a timer for each route and got the tab open for the library routes. It’s very much a comfort game at this point 
we finally have pones on the site

just cut my hair for the second time, i cannot believe how much it grew in 2 months, like i lost a couple of handfuls of hair just to get to the same length
I click on one dating advice vid and now the algorithm keeps giving me more, have to stop myself from doing nothing but watch them all week. Been through that before way too many times but I keep hoping one of them will make the whole meeting people and being vulnerable part easier, got trouble expressing interest in people because of fear of rejection.
I enjoy the novelty of meditating in shorts and a t shirt in the cold rain in public.
