Me: Just let me update my tests.
Client: We're in a hurry so push it and you can update the tests later.
Me writing tests later: So turns out this doesn't work...

I warned them that I'm going to break every glass they give me, and they're apparently gonna grab some plastic cups.

GRS(+) 

GRS consult call done! No major issues with my disability blocking me from surgery. We're good to go!

Also bought a new(old) gameboy, and a flash cart. As I demand it run on real hardware!

From Ye Olde Teknologikal Magicks Folio, have a gander at the glory of HMSL, the Hierarchical Music Specification Language, an object-oriented extension to #forth used for experimental music in the 1980s and 1990s:

The 2bpp format is simple af. So it shouldn't be hard.

Gameboy homebrew update: Needed to edit tiles, tile editors on mac suck. Making a tile editor. :P

I've decided to make a little gameboy game, and it boots successfully and does some housekeeping. (Currently copying a tile font into the VRAM). :possum_rawr:​ 🎮

re: Contrapoints commentary, trans medicalism. (Surprisingly +ve) 

Like in a few trans communities I'm in the transmed people like, posted it and started talking like they expected that we all agreed with them. They seem universally unaware that most trans people don't believe their bullshit. :P

Contrapoints commentary, trans medicalism. (Surprisingly +ve) 

At the very least, the last contrapoints video has like, caused every transmed person to reveal themselves in a rage after it's release. Whereupon we subsequently threw them out.

"You're right," the mechanic said, "your battery is draining much faster than normal."
"I knew it!" said the robot.
"Let me check diagnostics... Why is your processor 100% busy?"
"I'm monitoring my battery."
"If you stop that, it will last longer."
"I can't, it might run out."

GRS (++++) 

Pre-op consult is on the 24th!

I am sad I don't get balloons on my profile on mastodon today tbh. It's a critical twitter feature!

"Don't you want to heat that?" the alien asked.
"No, ice cream is meant to be cold."
"Do you humans not have cold receptors to warn you?"
"Yeah, but it depends on context."
"Wait, you humans rewire your warning signals to pleasure depending on context?"
"It's a lovely ice cream."

How the fuck do cis ppl expect me to write my gender on their forms if they don't specify metric or imperial??

Realtalk, my local amateur radio club is a blessing. Every single one of them knows my deadname via my callsign, but I have heard absolutely NOBODY ever say it out loud.

GRS (-) 

Called the clinic today, file is still under evaluation. It's entirely possible they might reject me, so I've been living at maximum stress since I submitted the paperwork in april and I am just plain running out of energy to handle that.

content warnings are such a blessing.
having the freedom to write out something that bothers you, so you can vent it into the void, while also knowing you’re not randomly dumping negativity on someone who might not have the spoons to deal with it, is pure gold.
