the interruptions, credit stealing, and mansplaining were no longer incogruous with my understanding of my gender. Which was ... retroactively confirming in an infuriating kind of way.

I also had way more confidence afterwards because I was no longer pretending to myself nor anyone else to be a boy or a man. It turns out that that's a huge mindfuck and takes a massive amount of energy to maintain.

I mean, it's always worth having a couple of weird Bluetooth devices hanging around to hide passwords on when crossing borders.

I always thought it should be possible to model the FFT in physical media. I think it would make an amazing piece of art

Duress passwords are absolutely a thing, in GrapheneOS

need sauce bc uncle MAGA will say it's AI

"what do I have to say to make you love me? You ungrateful shit you don't know how good you could have it with me! You're nothing without me!"

So civilians the general public can help dig out an access path.

fire/rescue and even police are civilian institutions. A more appropriate distinguish them would be, "general public."

A seemingly minor thing, but legally very important to keep (more) tanks off our streets

Plenty of athiests, agnostics, pagans, etc in NA. Look for the queer online meetings for a start.

People always forget about patches, like patches are the Gen-X of fem HRT methods.

They're easy to apply, easy to access, more efficacious than pills.
