Not pictured: elitist chuds that are really angry about the trans and furry community, and think Linux and other open source communities were ruined by code of conducts.
I am contributing to the “trans girls everywhere for some reason”
Furry sysadmin here, also trans but not a girl =D
I don’t know where “🏳️⚧️” is, but all the girls from there are hot.
Transylvania
The guys from that place are pretty af too!
And don’t get me started on the its, theys, and etcetera. The weird ones are so cool~
100%
Honestly everyone hot.
I think the abundance of trans women (≈ women who were raised as boys) is proof the social conditioning the only factor in why there aren’t more women in STEM fields. Women love this shit just as much as men, but they’re actively steered away from it.
(Yes, women face other challenges beyond lack of exposure, but I think all of them can be traced back to social factors as well, such as how men are conditioned to treat women.)
I’ll never forget dialling into a work meeting with the corporate infosec team who we needed some guidance from.
Their rep shows up and it’s a fem-presenting person with pink cat-ear headphones.
I’m like oh fuck they sent the big guns, this is exactly who we needed to talk to. And I was right, we got exactly what we needed.
Was she wearing cargo pants? Did she have a subway map poster on her wall?
The old adage “The worst-dressed nerd in the meeting is the most important one” could use some updating for the modern era to include trans folks with really good fits…
No socks?
As a dark-hooded sweater guy, I’m feeling personally insulted.
Yeah but are you also wearing stockings?
No sorry.
We have finalized our decision. Apology accepted. Congratulations. Please get socks at nearest available date to not repeat this.
Linux users: people think about us
People: I wonder what’s for dinner
Conclusion: Windows, Mac and BSD users are cannibals
SOYLENT LINUX IS PEOPLE!
My ship sails in the morning
I would argue that’s the cool part. You also have the average hyper racist neo-reactionary Suckless fossid user who thinks daring to write in anything other than C is “gay” or smth.
I had a discussion with someone who was of the belief that anyone that doesn’t build their own packages and reads the documentation is a lazy retard that doesn’t know what they’re installing on their computer.
That was a fun conversation
I assume they were a Gentoo user?
As a gay trans man, looking down on people who code in anything other than C is my toxic masculinity. Don’t let reactionaries take it away from me.
You’re not a real man if you use an IDE. Vim and gcc were good enough for the founding fathers (D & R), they’re good enough for me.
I use an IDE… guess I’m not a real man anymore 🏳️⚧️

I believe in your right to access gender affirming care (installing netbeans)
