Periodic reminder to anyone who builds applications:
People's names and email addresses can change over time. And not just women's last names. Any part of any person's name. Build a fucking workflow that won't break everything when they do change names.
Yes fellow white trans people, I know you're going to want to say "well actually this is all minorities he hated", but fuck off. I'm letting Black people speak this article focused on their own history and oppression in their own words without appropriation. If you want to express similar sentiment, write it in your own words somewhere else and source this article as the inspiration for you describing our own history and views. But we aren't allowed to appropriate Black pain and trauma.
A 10/10 article about why there should be no expectations of sympathy or sorrow by Black people for the death of people who have spent their lives heaping abuse on the same people. https://wordsbybibbs.substack.com/p/no-humans-involved-a-requiem-for?triedRedirect=true

@adamhotep Even worse when I try to open in a new tab so I don't lose my place, and it's one of those stupid JavaScript links that doesn't actually open a new tab.
"Who, Where and How you're allowed to Protest Oppression"
-- Some wealthy cis het white person
Chapter 1. A list of all of the successful protest movements in history
Chapter 2. A list of the protests who successfully stopped structural oppression and violence by writing letters to their congressional representatives and waving signs in approved places that they got permits for
(Hmm somehow this chapter is empty)
Good to know AP understands. One of these is not like the others
Elected officials react to the shooting
By BRIDGET BROWN
Vice President JD Vance: “Dear God, protect Charlie in his darkest hour.”
Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg: “Political violence must be always and totally rejected,” Buttigieg wrote on X. “Praying for him and all who may have been injured or impacted.”
California Gov. Gavin Newsom: “The attack on Charlie Kirk is disgusting, vile, and reprehensible. In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.”
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker: “The attack on Charlie Kirk is horrifying. Political violence has no place in this country and should never become the norm. I’m sending my sympathies to his family and friends at this time.”
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis: “The way to resolve political disputes is not through violence. The way to do that is to ask questions, debate. An attack on the idea that we resolve these things through reasoned debate and elections.”
NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani: I’m horrified by the shooting of Charlie Kirk at a college event in Utah. Political violence has no place in our country.”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: “Praying for @charliekirk11"
My eternal beef with SSO.
Click on link to page on app that's behind SSO.
Oh turns out your session expired, kick you back to SSO login
(Because the "Keep Me Logged In" button is a lie)
Authenticate in SSO
Oh look, the app is now back at the home screen not the link you wanted to go to.
Click back
Oh that page is the SSO redirects you back to the app
Okay, click to go back more pages
Guess wrong on which page you were on
Something refreshes on that page, fucking up your forward button
Now you have to either dig through history or you have to just refind the link you wanted to go to in the first place.
Or you just get distracted and give up until sometime after your session has expired again.
Trans man shows up, behold my uterus powers!

@Ask_aubry I mean my dude, if you want to be a woman, you can. It's called being trans.
Signed:
A woman who gave up her penis.
PS. I'm still waiting for all the free shit that was promised. All I got is a pair of tits and misogyny.
And I had to pay for the tits and the penectomy too.
And especially in education, driving anyone with compassion out of the industry is probably the point.

One of the worst parts of becoming an adult is realizing that there's nobody who is going to clean up the mess you've made, and you're going to have to clean it up for yourself eventually.
Another worst part is that you're sharing a world with a whole bunch of other people who haven't learned that lesson.
@the_etrain One of the few things I miss about working in-office with other people is that I can't bring people apology/thank you cookies when they save my ass.
