Today I went toe to toe with a transphobe pushing a "keep boys out of the girl's locker room" bullshit. I'm exhausted. I left the house to get my hair cut, pick up some things for Yule dinner next week.
I do these things because I have the privilege of passing as cis. (I hate that term) 1/n

Was watching my vod to see if I fixed my mic being quiet. Somehow my game sound went down but my mic sounds better. I feel like it doesn't sound as warm as my voice off stream. Probably going to do a test stream and see.

Pulling clips from the last stream and I just got super tired. Like someone sprinkled sleep powder on me. I look over and... imagine feeling so safe and comfortable with your own little pillow.
Her bed is over the heater vent in my office, so it's a warm spot, yes I bought her a toddler pillow. 😅

Another puppy fact. Even when she doesn't want to play she'll just bring all her favorite toys into my office and put them behind my chair before she stretches out in her bed to nap.
It's a party in Papa's office.

My puppy and I have this game, where we look at each other and I "stalk" her. After like 5 seconds I'll tell her to "go get that tug" and she will play bow, run to grab her rope tug and sprint back to me for 2 minutes of intense play. She's the best girl and knows how to brighten my day.

I have certificates of proficiency in network administration and IT Support. Tell me why it took me 25 minutes to come to the conclusion that gigabit switch in the living room wasn't bad, but the network cable that the Xbox uses was. I swear troubleshooting at home is hell.

I'll be frank with you, I don't fuck with GenAI even a little bit. I don't care how fun a game is, if I catch wind that it was used in place of human work I'll drop the whole thing. I dropped Tribes over its AI banners, I dropped The Finals the minute a friend clued me in. Its a line I won't cross.

The last 2 weeks I have been exhausted. Debating a couple "No Mic" building streams in Valheim. Spoons are very low this time of year
