I’m a trans woman and generally nice person. I like video games, board/card games, Magic The Gathering, DnD, karaoke, tech stuff, and space stuff. I work as a computer programmer primarily using C# .NET. Not sure what else to say haha.
An astronaut, until I discovered I hated rollercoasters.
And then an aerospace engineer, until I failed pre-calculus twice.
And then I had a random computer programming course in high school, and ECPI visited our high school. So I settled on computer programming.
I’ve been in the field of computer programming for about 20 years now. I like coding and it pays good too.

Arguably my favorite song ever. It encourages and motivates you to do the thing whatever that may be.
Can relate haha.
I got my gender marker changed. But not my name change yet. So I’m in this weird limbo where this basically constantly happens as described by the meme haha.
Sometimes I encounter a nice person and they change my preferred name in the system. And sometimes I don’t and it’s annoying… Or they’ll even make me announce my legal name etc.
I want to pursue my name change… But I’m also worried they’ll refuse and correct my documents forcibly due to the current political state that I won’t go into.
Plus I’m trying to buy a house and if I change my name I can lose my credit score apparently? I’m trying to wait until after I bought the house and then afterwards I might be able to do my name change by then. But we’ll see what happens.
Soon:tm: haha.
I think you look super cute!
I’ll have to look into Vinted haha.
Girl, you’re beautiful. Just remember that we are our own worst critic. Try to ignore the bad thoughts and ask for feedback from friends and stuff. hugs
Hai Cily!
You may not see me often. I’m a bit of a lurker haha. But I’m around ;-). I’m 40 and I’ve been on HRT since Nov 2022. And I’ve been doing great lately!
Hopefully things are going well for you too! hugs
One quick voice training trick/tip to get you started.
Simply take your tongue, and if able, place it on the roof of your mouth. Far enough to feel your muscles in the back of your neck tense up but also be careful to not choke yourself or anything. These are the muscles you need to keep tense. Now that you can feel which ones to target, simply drop your tongue back to a normal position while also keeping those neck muscles tense and then attempt to speak normally.
If done correctly, you’ll find that you’ll talk softer. This trick demonstrates an example of resonance. It can be quick to pickup and use, but difficult to sustain. But that’s where practice comes in. ;-)
Also don’t forget to drink water. It helps a lot during practice.
Here, also, is my favorite voice training video that covers this trick in the “positioning” section: https://youtu.be/4AesESPasZw?is=KRJ1UpbHlQzAnj8m
Super cute. Definitely a good purchase. ;-)
I know the secret to making a triple decker grilled cheese :-)
And my gf says she can make homemade alfredo or homemade meatballs.
Awesome, thank you! I’ll definitely have a look at this when I can.
Is it time for me to try to mod my ps4 so I can keep all my games? Does ps4 support soft modding yet? Cause I can’t solder…
I’m currently on Linux Mint, works pretty well out of the box. Steam games and indie games and even old windows game work (with lutris and/or bottles).
However I should warn, I also have a Steam Link. It does stream, but depending on the game the framerate can get very laggy. I’m running on a RTX 2070 tho. Not sure I can recommend steam link on Linux yet.
Everything else works great.
Currently playing “Phantasy Star Universe Clementine”. I reach level 196/200 on my main. And I already made a 2nd character around lvl 60 ish haha.
Its a bit of a grindy game, but its also online multiplayer which is nice.
Whenever I go out, single use bathrooms or family bathrooms if possible helps ALOT to make me feel welcomed and safe. (Dealing with the bathroom issue is one of my greatest fears. I won’t go into it further.)
Aside from that, if the people at my destination are nice and cordial, that’s good enough for me. Just don’t spread the hate.
Just do appointments or other stuff in the early morning or late afternoon. You don’t typically have to take the entire day off. Just an hour here or there.
Sometimes even then I still have to take an entire day off, but that is usually a very rare occasion.
