So many people in my life think I’m reserved and distant and aloof and I’m just anxious and having gay panic about my friends

I think the most important thing with anything is to just get started. Be it music, art, coding, anything, just get started. Don’t be worried about perfection or making it just right. That’ll come with time. Instead, focus on creating.

I swear, every Reptile store I see is next to a Liquor store. Does being drunk make buying a lizard sound like a good idea, or does having a lizard make people want to drink?

Having gone to so many conventions, the ones I feel most safe at are Fur cons and Adult Only cons. They’re the only conventions I’ve seen with a consistent focus on consent and respect.

I’m getting tech people following me here and I feel like none of them realize that I’m also a polyamorous furry and boy howdy, are they in for a ride.

I’m beyond exhausted of seeing how trans people are viewed by conservatives. Hearing one of the arguments in today’s Supreme Court briefing compare youth trans health care to lobotomies for children was horrifying. We deserve freedom and love, not hate and fear-mongering.

I can’t capture the value of Rust in one post, but I think my favorite aspect isn’t the Borrow Checker or the Type System, but how it all comes together to Correctness. I always have more confidence in my Rust code compared to other languages, even when the tooling and tests are equivalent.

I think it is how all the Rust systems come together in a way that I’ve not seen in other languages. I’ve written Go, Python, JS/TS for years, but Rust is the best at inspiring confidence in your own code.

You are up to date.
