[I don’t think there are any spoilers here.]

The most recent episode of Doctor Who was my favorite episode since… maybe ever. The Doctor and Rogue are so cute, and Ruby is such a badass. The musical references were so perfect. And it didn’t get bogged down in lore or end the day with a Deus Ex Machina. Just a good old fashioned episodic story with character development and some action. 💜

I spent an hour or two today recording my voice — a little talking, but mostly singing. It really doesn’t sound as good recorded as it does in my head. I know that’s true for everybody, but I had gotten over that with my old voice. I really want to sing, though. I guess I just gotta keep trying.

There is just no fuckin way I could ever scrub my deadname from all of my github repos. I’ve got 59 repos. I don’t even know if I could find all the files, let alone the commit histories. Github should offer this as a service.

I’m kind of a confused mess right now. I realized earlier today that I went to the same store in girl mode one day and lazy boy mode the next day, and if anybody noticed, they just rolled with it. 😅

Not sure what it is, but lately FFS has gone from something I’m wasn’t sure I even wanted to pretty much the top of my list for gender affirming surgery.

@zombierustpunk@hachyderm.io avatar

@bridget I was just thinking something like that earlier today. I used to be sure I wouldn’t want it, but now I definitely want to at least get an assessment.

@tobyhede You are not the only person. In fact, it seems like everybody hates it except for the CEOs pushing it.

My transition timeline as told through the memojis I’ve used on my iPhone.

Here's a new (for me) take wrt async APIs:

Public async APIs can't know how they'll be consumed. If I want to wrap a few different calls into my own Future, there's ergonomic pain to include async fn's.

Instead of marking themselves as async, these APIs should return their own Future object, for maximum flexibility.

@khionu Hmm, I don’t have much experience with Rust async, but that’s exactly how async functions work in C# and JavaScript — they return a Task/Promise. And it’s great. Very composable. Did rust take a different approach?

zombierustpunk,
@zombierustpunk@hachyderm.io avatar

@khionu Thanks for the detailed explanation. I’ll have to take some time to wrap my head around all that.

i think i’ve been transitioning slower than most folks i follow.

but i think today might have been the first time i spent an entire day girlmoding, including a job interview and a trip to my beloved taco bell. if i take this job, i’ll be Bee there from the start. (not stealth, though — i know some folks there from pre-transition)

feels like i’ve turned a corner. and it feels so nice.

I recently bought Myst. It’s one of those pieces of software I always wondered about. When it was released in 1993, my family couldn’t afford a computer that could run it. When we did finally get a proper PC in 1996, it was old hat.

Well, technically I bought a 3D reimagining of it, I guess.

It was… fine? I don’t know. Maybe I’m spoiled by better games that it inspired, like the Room series on iPad. It wasn’t bad, but it just left me a little disappointed.

@Obdurodon i feel the same way about some classic movies or music. like, you listen to the Beatles now, and they just sound like everything else. but at the time, they were doing new things. it’s impossible to experience with the original context

@joshuaelliott i feel like such a hipster. “it was better on the original cd-rom”

Sending an email coming out as trans to a close relative feels like opening the bomb bay doors in a B-17, releasing the payload, and waiting for the impact.

i wouldn’t say the writing on Doctor Who this season has been particularly great, but the show finally got its sense of fun back. the show had gotten so dark and dour. i love the excited energy of the new cast.

and how are the loveliest folks on the internet doing today?

i’m procrastinating cramming for my upcoming job interview

i’d love to have a season of Doctor Who where the companion is just some person, and not the mysterious key to this season’s big mystery box.

i don’t understand the kind of “futurist” who thinks it’s good to put chips in our brains, but bad to change our genders. They seem like the same kind of bio-hacking to me.

my bluesky account has turned out like my twitter account was — 99% bitching about politics. i very intentionally don’t bring that energy into this space.

i miss pre-2016, when most of my social media experience was shitposting on tumblr.

my favorite place on the internet these days is subreddits for fast food chains. people spend their whole lives optimizing the art of ordering the perfect burrito for the minimal price. beautiful humans

it’s weird how i’ll get excited and write like 3 songs in one month and then not even pick up an instrument for the next 11 months. i guess i just have too many hobbies. now if i could just finish Planet Crafter already…
