I feel deeply embarrassed about being from the US. It’s like hanging out with a group of friends out of necessity, later realizing they were all assholes, and trying to come to terms with the fact you spent so many years with them. I live outside the US now and I’m even more embarrassed to be from there. Every time there’s some culture shock my takeaway is either “wow how did I normalize this broken aspect of the US” or “I wish I was from somewhere that didn’t do those things to that person’s country”.

I also feel embarrassed and guilty over getting out of the US. I worked in tech and now I’m living off tech savings to start a life outside the US. I left my friends behind many of them are struggling financially, I left my community behind many of which are actively homeless, I chose to leave. Sure I’m leaving in part because my trans ass is on the chopping block but I see a lot of trans people fight harder instead of flee. I fought for so many years though and I couldn’t keep doing it so I left. The US did this to my community, made me confront choices I never wanted to make, I’m disgusted by having paid taxes to the war machine, and I justify working in tech as a way out of there but really I feel guilty over choosing to buy into that side of the US too so I could secure personal safety.

I’m at a 4 today doing pretty well!

Ah, this is my trans self too, but the functions are protests and I don’t stop at just half naked

If you don’t have variety over time please be at least taking a multivitamin too. It’s not perfect but it helps against nutrient deficiencies

Hell yeah! My first game was a text only java program where you killed skeletons and dragons, gained levels, and movement was done by typing a wasd key then hitting enter lol. You still making games at all?

Felt cute might be a bit late today so I can do it tomorrow and all the other day I was going to be a bit of a lot of people’s pantries in the morning

Just looked into the ram I got last year. From about $200 when I got it to $750 now

It’s been hitting -20c where I’m at currently. I love it, I’m so happy I moved here, idk what it is about the cold but it makes me happy and bundling up to go outside is fun

Damnit beat me to it

Ooh, are you doing a thing every month or just periodically?

As part of my most recent move I switched from windows to Linux. I gotta switch away from google now. What’s the current recommendations, is Proton still in hot water? Ideally something I can link my own domain or domains up to

They were supposed to be vegan carrot cake muffins but mistakes were made and I couldn’t get them out of the tin. So they got mushed up, bound with cream cheese vanilla frosting, and covered in chocolate

I was making vegan peanut butter cookies the other week, only used just over half the sugar in the recipe and straight up forgot an ingredient entirely. They still turned out awesome. Cookies and quick breads I’ve noticed are especially forgiving

How do they prevent buildup at bottlenecks?

The drivers in Seattle can be unhinged. There was one time I was going straight through an intersection, a guy jumped a median into incoming traffic to get past the car stopped in front of them so they could turn left through a red light; a couple feet difference and I would have been a road smear. Another time I had a truck stopped at a light yell at me for passing them in the bike lane and try to door me. Pretty much if I was ony bike I assumed I was going to get hit by a car. Still spent hours exploring the city on my bike though

Maybe no trafficking any individuals

If there’s one thing I know about chefs is that they’re still able to make a banger of a dish while out of half the ingredients, the oven is broken so they’re using a blowtorch, and Joey the kitchen bitch needs saved from getting eaten by the industrial mixer. I’m sure they’ll figure out using a wood stove while taking out their anger towards front of house by butchering a pig
