Mine's HOPE, but awesome that you can also get back to DEF CON! Have fun and enjoy your return.

HOPE.

That's true, my butt hair could do with an occasional shampoo. Maybe a fresh style too, I've been wearing it for ages just parted in the middle.

As the prime version of Georgiou's lines basically amounted to "Hi!" "Oh crap!" "Bye!" the overall math shouldn't be too affected.

My baldness sufficiently prevents me from using them.

Please don't give up on finding a mental health care provider who works for you! If it helps, think of it like shopping for any other product or service; you want to pick out food that works for you, clothes that fit you well, electronics you can use well, the right beverage you're in the mood for in the moment, etc. and finding a psychologist who provides the psychological care that works for you as an individual is just as important.

It's very important to remember that not jiving well with one psychologist, therapist, etc. is not in any way a failure on your part. Sometimes someone just isn't the right service provider for you, and that's nothing you need to be ashamed about.

If you are getting a builder to work on your house, a mechanic to work on your vehicle, and such it's perfectly normal to consult with more than one person before picking out who you think is the best for for the job and to change providers if one isn't working out, and your health is no less important to get the right person to work with you on.

I'd go so far as to say that the vast majority of people who use mental health providers have encountered one or more that just weren't right for them, and I certainly count myself as one of those clients. There's absolutely nothing wrong with shopping around for someone who works out better for you.

Damn, I wish I were too!

You don't have to transition for that, most adults can get their name changed whenever they like.

Two years ago I had to miss a biennial hacker conference I'd been going to (and helping out on) every other year for over two decades, something I love a lot and always deeply look forward to attending, because I'd finally got hit with my first case of COVID. The virus hit me hard, and not only did it make me miss the conference but it left me with heavy long COVID effects which knocked down my ability to do a lot of things for a long time.

Last week I had a checkup with my doctor who congratulated me on how much I've come back from the long COVID. That hacker conference is happening again next week, and I'm extremely excited to see everyone again! (I'll be masked, of course!)

Because however principled you are about the shittiness of the two-party system - and it is indeed shitty, but it's the one we're stuck in - we have a practical choice of only one of two people, and he's not the other one.

It's one of the things I really miss about Old Twitter.

"Look at that sign with a big picture of eyes. It makes me think about stuff."

You don't want the clutter, but you read the memes community?

they are too large for babies to feed.

Then it seems I must have seen some of them fake it really convincingly for some reason.

Excellent Henson wasn't a jackass in real life.

At the fancy Little Caesars they have Pizza Pizza Pizza.

The Doctor stole my grandma's wig.

But the best image format to download is the original one it was uploaded in, without the recompression of server-side conversion to a lossy webp which we're seeing all over the place.
