never a bad time to remind everyone about http://gameaccessibilityguidelines.com/, the best fucking website in the universe (if you're making a video game)

Dear Mastodonians: in case you missed it, Matrix has hit a major bump in funding and we're asking for folks to support us via Patreon/Liberapay. If you believe in a world of decentralised real-time messaging/VoIP/VR/etc, then now would be an *amazing* time to help out!!

@SarcasmKid sounds like an ointment

honestly, HumanBody is the worst hacked-together nonsense i've ever seen.
- no documentation (_everything_ we have is from reverse engineering by enthusiasts)
- little to no runtime modification, everything's baked in at DNA compilation time
- all the sensory hardware is fragile and pretty much impossible to replace when it inevitably breaks
- the built in security is decent but has to constantly download patches to cope with the latest malware, and is only necessary cause of larger systemic problems

MMMM Give me that FOOD😘😘😋😋😋❤️❤️❤️❤️. I'm a SLUT for WATER 👅💦💦💦💦💦💦. Gonna get some SLEEP toNIGHT!!!👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌 Basic Bodily Needs 😍😍😍😍😍

Question for other trans people:

Do you feel that transitioning has lead to you feeling a greater ability to change parts of yourself and improve your life? That is, has transitioning lead you to also feel that, for instance, if you are bad at something you have the ability to become better at it?

Everyone read this incredible essay by @u2764

If you're wondering why I stopped working in MastoDev, and why my posts about how development already includes marginalized voices are no longer applicable, then read that essay because it gets into all of it super fucking well
