One of my close friends came out as gay to me in highschool and I said “I know? Everyone knows. Well, everyone except you, apparently.” and nothing changed between us. I don’t advise the first part of it, even if everyone did know, but the second applies - start using their new pronouns and otherwise continue on as normal. That’s all they want, for their gender to be respected and to not be treated as different or strange for it.

A mix of BBC radio 6 and recommendations from my cousin who works in the music industry. I can’t give you my cousin’s details, but radio 6 has a great range of music from some of the DJs.

TTRPGs and occasionally a lil’ crime.

The Youths (20-somethings) at work have a new 3d printer, and were explaining how they were using the printer to print additional parts for the printer, so I said “oh, like downloading Limewire pro” and the blank looks made me feel so old.

I believe that men wearing shorts/trousers and women wearing skirts/dresses is abhorrent and a crime against basic logic.

Quite simply, skirts are for people with testicles. They’re kept outside the body in a special climate controlled sack that’s kept at a lower temperature than the body. Skirts and dresses allow airflow in the groin area, assisting this process.
Conversely, shorts and trousers restrict and insulate the groin, perfect for people who don’t have to worry about keeping their genitals cool.

I don’t care if the hegemonic gender paradigm disagrees, it’s categorically incorrect.
