Okay, I don’t have a single book that perfectly relates to everything you said, but I’ve got a small list of books I that relate to transness and gender as a whole. I’m going to put them in a rough order of “approachability” with the first being a good primer to thinking about gender and inclusivity and the last being very academic and in depth historical analysis. All links provided take you to bookwyrm pages, a Fedi book info and review site.
I’d like to make it clear these are by no means the end all be all of books on transness. They are just the books I’ve read over the last few months. I’m not even sure how the broader community feels about all these books. I am recommending them solely because I didn’t actively dislike them, and in most cases enjoyed them, and they effectively got me thinking about my own journey and trans experience.
Glitch Feminism (a personal favorite)
Yeah, I’ve largely figured out how to change all these settings from configs for myself, just always on the lookout for a nice gui. I’m slowly working to make a Linux experience I can install for my relatives that makes the transition from crapware Windows relatively painless.
Ah, so being on Hyprland means I can’t really gain access to this, right?
I’m currently fairly attached to my instance, but I’m so glad this is happening!! Might make a second account just to give y’all the numbers!
Another Fastmail user. I’m happy with it. The unlimited alias and masked emails are nice. From what I can tell I’ve only ever gotten emails from things I have directly and explicitly given my info to, so I’m assuming my email address isn’t being sold around resulting in lots of spam.
I had pretty good luck with Garuda on an old gaming laptop. In fact I’m pretty sure gaming wise it worked out of the box. Any tweaks I made were for other use cases.
Kind of an odd suggestion, and I know this might not work if you’re someone who wants to place themselves in the story, but if you’re looking for healthier, better adjusted men in literature, try some queer or gay romance. Not sure exactly your desired age/reading level, but Red, White, and Royal Blue is cute, and while socio economic status makes the main character slightly less relatable, it’s still a nice read. There’s plenty of other excellent queer romance that has well written men. If you also enjoy fantasy and political intrigue, Priory of the Orange Tree has excellent world building and a few romance subplots I think are very sweet.
EDIT: Somehow missed the “nerdier” part. Let me do some library diving and give more accurate suggestions
Yeah, by my understanding this is by design. However, there’s nothing stopping you from running multiple instances for each user account on a computer, assuming you are running Linux and are using the Syncthing CLI. Probably can’t do that on windows though.
Yeah, I’d also generally prefer to use my front matter for my global tagging and sorting so I can keep my templating consistent. I’m not explicitly opposed to adding more, but in an ideal world I’d keep my front matter pretty trim.
I’ll do some experiments of my own with data view and such to see if I can get some good functionality.
Could you elaborate on “move to obsidian”? I’m already storing some recipes in my vault, but I would be interested in further features like shopping list generation and other filtering options.
Apple Pencil clone 👀
Any chance you could elaborate on that?
Do you use it to draw at all? How does it compare to the pressure and tilt that the official one has?
Ah, I was thinking once it was empty, but then the moment you put one in it locks back up. I see I see.
Presumably you can spin it more the 360 degrees so the opening could be repositioned over already empty slots, but that doesn’t really count as “refillable” given how slow of a process that would be.
Yes? I believe so, but I also take two different shaped pills, both twice a day. I’d be happy with a disk for each or a disk that only does 1 week and has an opening that provides pills in pairs. Or something similar.
Give me a bit to go dig out my calipers and I’ll get you some dimensions!
Yeah the person who recommended it to me for the clicking is (I’m fairly sure) from Germany.
Damn, makes sense now looking at it. Unless the clear top had an easy way of coming off, it would totally be a pain to refill.
Where to buy this pill case??
For some reason I can only find stock images of this pill case. I have it on good authority it makes a satisfying clicking noise and my gay, neurodivergent ass wants one.
Ideally not an Amazon link, I deleted my account a bit ago and I do not plan to make a new one.
UPDATE: It would seems this is a prepackaged way E is sometimes distributed. Thanks to folks that pointed this out.
I’m in this picture, and it’s the vertical line dividing them. Slowing getting my life in order has been feeling great!!
Yes absolutely. Back in the day I used Hamachi for Minecraft servers, now I run a server with offline mode enabled through Tailscale with zero fear of anyone but my friends accessing it.
Fixed a rule from a bit ago
picture is of a Hatsune Miku edited to be sitting at a table from a Calvin and Hobs comic, with a sign on the front of the table reading "Hatsune Miku (creator of Minecraft) is very deserving of this meme format"
[Plugin "Bounty"] Obsidian note inline ACSIIFlow
I realize that the lines of text in a normal file have gaps between then, which almost instantly renders this impossible, but I’ll ask anyway. I’m looking for a way to get diagrams like ASCIIFlow in my notes. I’d even settle for a dedicated tab/filetype similar to canvas. My use case here is input with a stylus on a tablet and the original site struggles. Just doing weird things with highlighting random text, because the whole page is text. Canvas kind of does what I want, but there is a speed and elegance to ACSII flow, with the added ability to copy the result as text. I often use Obsidian to write documentation, and various system diagrams often come up. Being able to use characters rather than an image would be great.
In case the “” in the title aren’t clear, I cannot actually offer any financial compensation for this, should a plugin actually be made.
