I can't emphasize enough to cis people that the term "euphoria" was chosen to translate what transition feels like because there are no other words you will associate with a feeling like this — which you obviously cannot feel. But it is not a superlative. Transitioning is the greatest relief and elation I've ever experienced. There is not a word that contains all of it. I wish I'd never experienced all that torture I didn't know I was enduring, but I wouldn't change a thing. I know things now!

Is anyone up for running a tech conference with fake AI-generated men on the promotional material, but an all-female cast of actual speakers?

How is “confirming my address” to a receptionist enough verification for all medical professionals to be like “yes this information is secure”

I’m very sad to announce that my professional AWS qualification, that I have never once used, has expired.

Viral allegations that Devternity founder Eduard Sizovs fabricated female speakers to boost diversity have caused several big-name speakers to publicly drop out of the conference.

I don’t know why I act surprised when someone posts a toot with “content warning: my genitals” and a NSFW filter and I click it and see the aforementioned genitals Multiple times a week

I didn't eat anything that could be called a meal today, which I thought was a mistake until just a few minutes ago when I tried eating a meal. Clearly my body is mad at me about something.

Upgraded a library and the new major version removed support for something I was using. However, instead of complaining to the maintainer, I copied the code into my repository, reformatted the code and went along my merry way. Thank goodness for freely licensed source.

Cheeky referral link, but a good one: if you're doing your UK tax return (ew) then I recommend Tax Scouts as an affordable accountancy service. I nearly overpaid by £2k this year because I didn't know wtf I was doing. And here's 10% off: https://taxscouts.com/i/SOPHIE395

"I've been deeply concerned about inclusion and diversity" says conference organizer who booked Uncle Bob to speak 🙄

This whole conference debacle is so disappointing. Speakers, when invited to a conf will say “who alls gonna be there?” I’ve my rules for participation posted on my site - including an inclusive lineup - for years. I was duped by the fake speakers also. I remind all conf organizers that there are THOUSANDS of speakers of all walks of life, genders, ages, backgrounds. I offer 920 for you to invite to your confs http://hanselminutes.com/episodes inclusion means doing the work. So, do the work, friends.

@anderseknert they weren’t in the lineup when I agreed over 11 months ago. Either way, I’m out.

@shanselman racist uncle Bob fronting the lineup, followed by anti-woke DHH. Who could have guessed a conference like that would have such a dark side?

I always thought of [Spoon Theory](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoon_theory) as covering chronic illnesses with physical impact, so I've avoided using it for myself. I say "cognitive resources" instead to describe my similar but not identical #ADHD issues. But maybe I can have a little fun with it. What about "Spork Theory?" I've got an entire damn drawer of resources, but they're individually wrapped, not reusable, not well-suited to any one task, and break if you try too hard.

Ah, would you look at that, after a few days of respite following Halloween, the bellends with fireworks are back to scare the living shit out of pets like our puppy, folks with PTSD, etc. PS. Wanna hear a joke? Fireworks are illegal in Ireland. #ireland #fireworks #bellends #pets #ptsd
