Yeah, as I commented elsewhere, I'm damn impressed my code managed to compile and run. I guess life has a pretty fault-tolerant compiler at times, or maybe I was just super lucky to not have the errors be in spots that'd completely screw me over.

I really feel for the inevitable handful of trans men with Androgen Insensitivity syndrome. Imagine how bad it'd be if you were born with the wrong body, and couldn't change it through hormones - it'd be an actual nightmare.

I found out because I was doing genetic work to test for Ehlers Danlos and I'd gotten my entire genome sequenced, so I figured I'd look for other stuff as well. I've suspected for a few years now that I've got some sort of intersex condition for a while because of very low testosterone and a weirdly fast transition, but finally got the confirmation earlier this week and wow my genetics are kinda a mess. Tbh I'm amazed that my code actually compiled XD

IMO being infertile is a plus - can't accidentally have any kids, and can't be coerced into doing so.

OMG yes it is - it's especially fun to tell it to TERFs who are all "but muh chromosomes"

Oh look, it's me! I found out a few years ago that I have De La Chapelle syndrome. I'm actually a trans woman though and not a guy, so I consider it a bonus rather than a downside since it made me have very little testosterone growing up.

I'm far left (anarcho-syndicalist) and I say vote. It's not that hard and buys us more time to do our organizing and try to build out unions and mutual aid networks while fascism is at least growing more slowly.

I love these old IWW posters, especially as a current wob. It's really cool to see the history of the One Big Union!

Do you support sending weapons to Israel? in c/asklemmy

Let's arm the Palestinians instead. Or, we could send intentionally defective weapons to Israel. Israel's genocide has to stop

You could also make this a joke about being trans, but not realizing it yet. In the trans community we refer to people who're trans but haven't realized it as "eggs" because they haven't hatched yet. Anyway, there are the seeds of a good joke there!
