@revoluciana Isn't it _wonderful_?
@danirabbit @rooster Believe it or not: you did a brave thing. After coming out, transitioning, and surviving holidays with difficult relatives, who'd have thunk? 💓
Keep being brave!
Hi!! Happy #TransAppreciationFriday!!
I’m Nicole (she/her). I manage mobile engineering for the Pocket products at Mozilla. My previous incarnations were as an iOS developer, an attorney, a CGI enthusiast, and an aspiring horror makeup artist (I never wanted to be an astronaut).
I originally hail from #Tucson, #Arizona, but reside in the #BayArea these days.
I think it’s really interesting that my oldest, dearest childhood friend is also #trans. Coming out to each other was super special.
Hey friends - I am in Antarctica with extremely slow and limited internet and I have a book coming out this year that I'd normally be posting more about because pre-orders are *critical* to a book's success.
Help me get the word out?
OUT THERE: THE SCIENCE BEHIND SCI-FI FILM AND TV
From black holes to space elevators and extraterrestrial civilizations, this is a rich and beautifully illustrated book for your coffee table. And astronaut Mae Jemison wrote the Foreword!
Promo Codes for Rube Works: The Official Rube Goldberg Invention Game
We published this game in 2013 using Unity 4.6. Apple updated MacOS and the game no longer worked. We have a new version that works on recent MacOS versions, but doesn't work on older versions/Macs.
I could use some help finding out exactly which versions of Macs and MacOS's are compatible. Any takers? DM me with your Mac info, and I can send you a promo code.
Just need to know if it runs. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rube-works-official-rube-goldberg/id826938697?mt=12
@bumpus @danirabbit I think we can throw a ⭐ in too, just because it's a selfie + wisdom post.
@piratescarlett On it. 💪 Just a few more things preceding on the list.
@piratescarlett Another streaming service. 😂 Oh gods, they feel by Pokemon: gotta catch 'em all.
In 2023, don't tell me that your tech is doing good.
Show me a team that reflects society.
Show me a team with women.
Show me a team that is safe for trans people.
Show me Indigenous inclusion.
Show me a team that welcomes and RETAINS Black people.
Show me management that accommodates disability without intrusive questions and a legal fight.
Show me neurodiversity.
Show me management that doesn't use people like emotional support animals. Show me fewer meetings, with agendas & notes.
@piratescarlett I'm convinced enough to order the Blu-ray of the first two—unless you recommend another way of screening them?
@SoftTransMom Nope. My tolerance for genuine scares is super inconsistent, but this looks well on the other side of my enjoyment threshold. 🫣
Project A-Ko 1986 ‘プロジェクトA子’
Directed by Katsuhiko Nishijima
If you miss the #80s then here you go! Earth. The not too distant future. A city is miraculously reborn just sixteen years after being completely destroyed by a giant meteor. A love triangle of three school girls, confrontations with Aliens, Giant Robots and complete destruction ... #Anime #Animation #Japanuary #Japan #Cinema #Nowwatching #Nw #Asiancinema
@a0dbxza Oh, gods, a total embarrassing tween fave of mine. I even own an animation cel.
@piratescarlett Okay, now I’m _really_ curious. 🤩
