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.

i am attempting a scientific experiment. i have been using a plant oil that is supposed to act as a topical antiandrogen that reduces sensitivity to androgens in the places u rub it in, leading to less hair. i have been using it on my face for a couple weeks and it feels like it's changing.

BUT

i plan to conduct an experiment on my arm hairs. i'm gonna do the exact same hair removal on each arm, but i'm gonna put the oil on one arm, for 6 months. i will report on the results.

ooo like reverse monoxidil. i also would like your results

between the DIY electrolysis device, this, and other stuff this place is turning into the bleeding edge of DIY trans healthcare

i've been avoiding making a post for... reasons? it's basically just been incrementally closing out the last 10% and i don't want to say that over and over again and not have new news, plus since this is a free time endeavor for me, actually documenting and writing the post was becoming a non-trivial slice of the time i spend on the project at all in a week. i feel really bad for leaving y'all in the dark but nevertheless we persist โœจ

we do in fact have a matrix chat as @Edie@hexbear.net ~~linked~~ mentioned (thanks friend you're a real one and i deeply appreciate your persistent checking in trans-heart). if you're here and you're seeing this you're invited. DM me wherever I accept DMs (hexbear or matrix) and i'll send you an invite. matrix has been a lot better for me because i don't have to think and curate and take screenshots and instead i can just spend thirty seconds writing a couple quick messages and get to the rest of my day.

sphynx is absolutely not dead. ๐Ÿ’ช

I didn't actually link the chat. I must said we had one

[โ€“] Edie@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

We have a matrix chat, I'll ping her and tell her to check hexbear if she hasn't.
