  • I appreciate you calling out the use of the term “normie”. Communities that frequently use such terms always end up with an unhealthy “us vs them” mentality.

    Like I’m not surprised people don’t react well to someone bringing up privacy issues if said person starts the conversation with the mentality of “how do I enlighten this normie?”









  • Personally I feel like if you have to ask, I’d lean towards caution and not sending it. I mean, best case she gets a chuckle out of it, worse case it kinda creeps her out.

    If you’re unambiguously an ally and she has seen proof of/knows this, most trans people I know would be fine with it. I’m not sure the risk/reward is worth it though (and tbh I’d say the same for sending memes to any coworkers one’s not on more familiar terms with)




  • I am too dumb brain for programming :(

    I’ve tried a few times in the past to get into it but I just get overwhelmed. I’m frankly amazed by and so thankful for all the programmers who contribute to all of the great libre software I use. I am stuck at the level of knowing more about computers than essentially everyone I know or encounter, while simultaneously being a complete and utter noob to anyone who actually understands computing. I just know how to use search engines and follow instructions written by people smarter than me.
