Four foot twenty the Streamer Man Is waiting for the touch of his hand Starting up live streams without a plan Like the every daily Chat that bothers the Streamer Man Could he do something to make me laugh? Inside his little chamber made of gaffs So he lived the Jerma Man, Jerma Man
When I get sad that I didn’t start transitioning until I was almost 30, I try to remember that Lynn Conway also transitioned at 30
How it feels trying to follow a recipe that your average Chinese grandma can do with her eyes closed
That reminds me of when I saw Dean Norris in my rewatch of Starship Troopers, and then there was the whiplash of realizing this was only 10 years before Breaking Bad

I also like how in some schools of Buddhism, there are gods you can pray to for help, and then there are schools where they acknowledge many gods exist but they won’t really help you so they’re a waste of time. Same energy as this fighting game screenshot
I turned 33 back in December, at this point you just try not to think about it much
There is the menacing tree sprite from the fall newsletter that haunts me. The color palette seems wrong
