GenX US midwestern AuDHD trans lesbian Python dev in Quantum Computing. Lefty nonevangelical ✝︎

Just trying to get by, skating on good vibes. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

If you know me in real life, please don’t out me.

Signal: @QuantumDev.01

ChatGPT ward: Jonathan Zittrain

Introduction 🧵

I’m an old Midwestern white trans lesbian. I write software for a quantum computing startup. I have multiple overlapping flavors of neurodivergence.

I was raised by television in the 80s, so I’m nostalgic for pop culture of that era.

I take too much at face value.
i mourn for the trans friends that we lost, but i also want to celebrate and lift up all of us who are still here

trans ladies: you’re a good girl and I love you

trans guys: hell, yeah, dude. giving you a high five as we pass each other

non-binary folks: you’re valid and cherished just as you are

well, i think i remembered wrong

there was a website that did sizing, but then even if it was weird, gave you links to brands/models that matched that size

i though it was ABTF, but i put in my measurements, and it was like “lol, start with 40 C/D and just try on a bunch of bras”

has pepper jam always existed? this nonsense is amazing, and I’m mad that I’m only just discovering it.

FUCK. it’s TDOR, not TDOV

OK, full disclosure: this didn’t last for long. She and I ended up having lunch together today, and my outfit-to-body proportions made it look like I was playing dress up and someone else’s clothes, so I switched to a sweater and overalls.

I did wear this pin, though.

electric razors are one of the best ADHD accommodations out there

if i can’t shave while i’m driving to lunch, you’re eating with a lady with a she/her pin and two days’ stubble

hit a WEIRD point in satisfactory last night.

no spoilers, but I finally managed to make a start on one of the research trees in particular.

I don’t like dress shoes, so i usually finish off my all-black outfit with baby blue Chuck Taylors

can i get a read of how uncool that makes me look? (0 being lou reed, 10 being musk)
WHAT ARE THOOOOOOSEEE

you make up nonsense words, and she doesn’t?

You're a vegan and she's a carnivore?

Problematic phage gap.
Your herb garden has unexpected spaces in it?

i’m celebrating by wearing a dress to work

(my desk 20 feet away, where i work by myself and am off camera all day)

no one will see it, but it’s a lovely one that @editrixbecks.bsky.social gave me

Fun behind-the-scenes tidbit!

I use a Stream Deck to switch layouts when we’re on stream. But to make it even better, our incredible Producer Asha (@ashadotb.bsky.social) changed the buttons so they have little Heaters. 🥹🐈

It makes me smile any time I’m at my computer. :-)

quick reminder that the jews were not the only marginalized group targeted by the nazis

does she think gay people, trans people, and the romani should also be allowed to do a genocide?
I'm struck by this clip of former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz saying Holocaust education has backfired in part because people Palestinians as victims: "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people."

cankles still there, nurse was not overly concerned

tonight, i’m sleeping with my legs elevated and wearing compression stockings

i feel approximately twice as old as i am
I can’t find compression socks, so I’m just gonna put on some tights under my clothes, and I appear to have purchased a pair of topologically impossible tights.

I have turned them inside out three times now, yet they remain inside out
I don’t know why, but I suddenly have cankles

I don’t care for it

i don’t know if I’m playing satisfactory wrong, but I realized that I wearing away trails as I was walking around the planet, and I felt terrible about it

that plus the fact that I’m not great at combat means that I’m basically traversing the whole map from a system of cat walks 200 feet in the air

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

I have a poster ready to be picked up from the frame shop, but my prescriptions are not yet ready to pick up, and it only makes sense to wait until I can do the two at the same time

guess it’s Satisfactory time
