Xenia, the fox girl mascot of Linux, was first designed in 1996 by Alan Mackey. She was meant to be an alternative to Tux, the official mascot.
She had fallen into obscurity, but was noticed by a Twitter user in 2019 and was redrawn as a fox girl. But as it turned out, Xenia was originally meant to be male! The original creator, Alan, was cool with this, saying “It matches the transition of a lot of the smartest, nerdiest Linux users I know” and “And sure, you made her trans!”.
So now we have a trans Linux mascot. And I think that’s neat.

If I were to ever look at myself in the mirror and see a pretty person, I’m not sure if I’d have the emotional bandwidth to be able to control what happened next.
OH MY GOSH I almost forgot to mention some progress I made today. I was trying to set up Bluetooth in the car, and it always repeats certain phrases back at me. I dread it for this exact reason, and I’ve avoided setting it up until now with that being one of many reasons. However, it had to happen, so I went to do it and put on my best fem voice. Imagine my shock when it spits my voice back out at me, and it sounds like a mature woman! I don’t even know how I did it, and I don’t want to listen to it again in case it ruins what might be magic, but in that moment I felt such intense euphoria. I then enjoyed the convenience of having my music on Bluetooth while no longer having to deal with my static-ridden aux cable.
Gonna
and 
for a while, comrades. Got some things I need to do. Be back soon!
Make sure to keep the cis down in my absence. 
When you have to let your facial hair grow out for electrolysis 🤢
I miss the good old days when men would name their sons “Gaylord”
My time’s gonna be limited going forward but getting the urge to do all 326 routes of shadow the hedgehog again, got reloaded 1.2 running on dolphin with the widescreen going. Got the added S ranks, got some tweaks, got a timer for each route and got the tab open for the library routes. It’s very much a comfort game at this point 
Lost so much shit since I started wearing women’s pants. I keep not bringing a purse because I think I won’t need it then I just feel my wallet slip out of my pocket after a minute of walking
just cut my hair for the second time, i cannot believe how much it grew in 2 months, like i lost a couple of handfuls of hair just to get to the same length
we finally have pones on the site

I click on one dating advice vid and now the algorithm keeps giving me more, have to stop myself from doing nothing but watch them all week. Been through that before way too many times but I keep hoping one of them will make the whole meeting people and being vulnerable part easier, got trouble expressing interest in people because of fear of rejection.
I enjoy the novelty of meditating in shorts and a t shirt in the cold rain in public.
Looking back I’m surprised how long it took for my egg to crack. I watched the Korra avatar and was wishing I was a lesbian, saw the Netflix Shera and wished I was able to transform into a woman and be a lesbian with Catra. Also watched some anime where a guy cross dressed for like one episode and I was wishing I could “cross dress” myself. Wild how oblivious I was
How many of you would join me for Webfishing later, assuming I actually manage to get my work done? Feel like it would be fun to run a server with you all
misgendering
Cissies see me breasting boobily and still refer to me as a guy. Wild how oblivious they are
Hey, guess I’m gonna use the anonymity the Bureaucracy affords us. I just saw the current icon of the new !cute@hexbear.net community. It’s currently an animation of Fluttershy from MLP G4 vibing and I started to wonder how many people here were/are bronies (in the widest sense possible). I watched the show during its original run and I was strongly aware that I wasn’t in the target-demographic, which caused me shame even if I never shared it with anyone irl. I only consciously started questioning my gender long after the show had its run, but now I start to wonder how many eggs were/are in the fandom of MLP.
In retrospective it’s kind of obvious why I found great joy in watching that show and I guess I just wanted to ask if others here share a similar experience?
