Chilean style marraquetas made at home for a nostalgic kick 💞
I'm very grateful a lot of folks are against having their images fed into AI for conference art, but can I also throw in "us gals don't want to have our headshots airbrushed for promo art" please lol every time it's like a Twilight jumpscare
It's been a truly rough couple of weeks. However, for the first time in a long time, I feel myself coming out of them with my head held high. I am truly grateful to the people who have been supportive, and to a bestie who is always available to start a new game of Elden Ring together 💞
Update: I won't be at EuRuKo this year. My sincere hope is that things will move in a positive direction, but I won't be part of this specific iteration.

Gosh I used to love Google Easter eggs and that sorta thing but now with Jimothy it feels a little “silence brand”-ey, yknow?
Setting up my first Raspberry Pi in a while and wow the software for setting up the OS is getting so good. I love that I can set up ssh auth before even writing the SD card
Getting a loved one into Star Trek, starting with TNG but still sharing the fandom lore. He was born in 2000 so this intro feels nostalgic to him
Carmen Huidobro@hola-soy-milk.online · 10mo agoPals it’s been long enough we can admit to ourselves that we secretly love the intro to Star Trek Enterprise and sing along every time, right?
Dear Arbeitsmarktservice (Austrian public employment service), Kosovo is not the same as Kyrgyzstan. Can’t believe I have to tell y’all this but here we are.
Getting real tired of white (passing) queer/neurodivergent folk thinking it’s cute to belittle, shit on or otherwise other cishet/neurotypical people. You realise that you’re perpetuating tribalism and thereby causing harm right
Remember kids: If it ain’t intersectional, It ain’t feminism.
Maybe there is a tiny bit of shame coursing through me when I share my discord screen and people realise I use light mode
Alright it's been a few days, I've mostly emotionally recovered... Time to listen to the Deltarune Chapter 5 soundtrack on loop for about a year or so
Every time I watch a new Star Trek Strange New Worlds episode I’m shocked to have forgotten how hot everyone on this crew is
It's been several years and I'm still struggling to recover from how perfect herrklären is as the german term for mansplaining
Oh hey, my talk from @friendlyrb.com is live! Come listen to how I stay versatile these days 💜 www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXsW...

it’s pride so I want to re-voice my opinion that you do not get to self-ID as an ally to queerness “ally” is not an identity, it is a name assigned to action

Helping a loved one hide the effects of testosterone from their relatives in another country by setting their phone to 2G and lending them a headband feels like the kind of hacktivism I was MADE for 🥰
Y’all are now looking at a corporate chiquilla with a corporate bank account 😌 Soon I’ll be a founder chiquilla 💜
Them: Oh wow I've never met a programmer who wasn't compeltely obsessed with and taken by Gen AI and doesn't think that Claude Code is the greatest thing ever Me: Um... okay so well done ya just met one pal
I was teaching CSS to emerging devs today. We got into declarative vs procedural programming. One of the learners asked whether prompt engineering is declarative programming. Needless to say, dear reader, I was upset. This was me in bed later that evening
White (passing) queer people can we just learn to listen and do better ffs
Looking for a cofounder to build a non-US static website host. Think Netlify but bootstrapped and hosted in Europe. No VC bullshit. Hmu if you're queer, interested, and can do devops.
