Spannend!

Thank you 💜

Thank you!
Funnily enough the actual pose didn't feel that hard - getting into it was a struggle.
It took several attempts to find an entry which gave me enough height for the pose

Me, a middle aged white man, hanging upside down on a chrome pole. One leg is hooked around the pole, one hand is pushing me away from the pole. I'm looking at the camera and smiling.

I rarely remember to smile during #pole, so this is a special picture.
The shape is called "eros" 🥰

The mechanic removed the back plate and inhaled through pursed lips. "Who did this?"

"I did," the robot said.

"How?"

"I took one arm off, put in a wireless interface so I could still use it, and put it in a vice, then turned-"

"OK. Why?"

"I needed fixing."

"You are allowed to ask for help."

"niemand führt Listen" zu äußern, während die CDU an Bestrebungen festhält, eine solche für TIN* Personen anzufertigen, inkl. vorheriger Vornamen und Geschlechtseinträge mag faktisch korrekt sein (noch werden diese Listen nicht geführt) aber ist auf so vielen Ebenen ignorant.

I'd buy it for the cover art alone

Sleep is the best debugging tool. But taking a walk is a close second.

-phobia is a fear, -misia is a hate.
Transmisia means hating trans people.
The people creating those laws are not afraid so while more commonly known the term transphobia isn't correct.

CN transmisia transphobia
They won't rest until there are no more trans people.

This isn't just true for the US, in Germany there are also repeatedly attempts to create lists of trans people. No good ever comes from putting people on lists, there are more than enough precedents in history.

Cis allies: Zum #FeministischerKampftag seid nervig, weist insb weiße endo cis Frauen darauf hin, dass #Frauenkampftag exkludierender bullshit it. Lasst nicht zu, dass das wieder an genderqueeren Personen hängen bleibt und wir dafür von cis Frauen angekackt werden, Inklusion von ihnen zu fordern.

The term “biological sex” is not a politically neutral term (when discussing trans issues).

Mir folgen hier über 1000 Menschen, wenn ich darauf Hinweise, dass immer noch nicht vom Tisch ist, dass es ein Sonderregister für TIN* Personen geben soll, in Deutschland, nachdem in Arkansas auf Grundlage einer solchen Liste sämtliche TIN* Personen dort über Nacht keine

Thank you for sharing the recording. I liked the article a lot but hearing you speak the words, hearing your passion and emotions made it so much more impactful and touching.

Vibe Coding and the Return of Throwing Stuff over the Fence I touched on this topic in my last post. I want to elaborate on this phenomenon some more. Testers, remember the old days? Developers on one side, testers on the other. A fence between them, and code flying over it like a catapult delivery. "Here, we're done. Go find the bugs." No context, no conversation, no shared understanding. Just a lobbed artifact and a prayer.

Vibe coding brought the old dev-tester silo back. Except now engineers are the ones getting half-baked deliverables thrown over the fence. One person + AI agents won't replace a cross-functional team. "You need the full package, man!" New post ✍️

In Baden-Württemberg können alle Wähler*innen für eine starke, linke Opposition sorgen. Macht euer Kreuz bei Die Linke. Denn diese Partei kümmert sich um das Thema soziale Ungleichheit, Mietwucher und lässt sich nicht von der Stimmungsmache rechter Einpeitscher treiben.

Heck yeah, you look drop dead gorgeous 🤩
All the best for your presentation!

She found the skirt but unfortunately she didn't have it in stock.
In one or two weeks I'll get to try it on myself and see if ita skirt or cape. The idea is to wear it with the slit to the side so it's more skirtlike. The high slit is crucial for the pole shenanigans I've got planned.

Und das tun viel zu viele Leute.

Es beginnt immer mit einer Öffnung von Geschlechterdefinitionen, man möchte inklusiv wirken.

Und dann plötzlich fällt der Satz:

„Ja nee, biologisch ist’s eh klar was man ist, aber…“

Nix ist klar, alles ist von Menschen zum Machterhalt definiert.

I went shopping for a skirt today and had a clear image in my mind how I want the skirt to look like and behave.
After some failed attempts in other shops the shopkeeper in my favourite shop found the perfect skirt. Of course it's called "goddess" by the brand "kinky diva".
I can't ever be subtle 😅

'That doesn't affect me, it doesn't apply to me!’

This is a terrible misconception that will come back like a boomerang!

Exclusion, violence, oppression and murder of marginalised people will sooner or later also affect people who were not marginalised at the outset. They just can't see it yet.

All I wanted to do was create an automated test for one of our product workflows.
I ended up finding a bug which completely breaks the workflow. However it only happens on Linux in a specific shell - and it exists in one of our other products as well.

A bug which has a three line fix no less. 🫠

It's just not what I expected from the training.
On top of that I learned the things the training is focusing on already during my own therapy like "Put your own oxygen mask on first", "don't neglect your own needs", "regularly check in with yourself how you're doing" (2/2)

My wife and I are attending a training for parents of kids with ADHD. The further the training goes the more it becomes apparent that it's actually a group therapy for parents in disguise. Which isn't bad - parents will be able to handle their children better after doing their own homework. (1/2)

Ich habe wieder freie Commission Slots für Topflappen.
Egal ob Pride flags oder Lieblingsfarben. Eckig oder Rund.

The blouse is so gorgeous 🤩
You look beautiful and I hope your weekend was as as great as this whole outfit
