your hands are the only hands you get so you better start installing Linux with them
I have installed windows on so many systems it will take me decades to atone with enough linux installs
Well, it depends on when.
90s windows inatalls aren’t great, but they’re excusable.
00s windows installs are a few points against you, depending on use case.
10s windows installs are… Oof.
20s windows installs, yeah, a special hell just for you.
Mass scale enterprise windows 10 to 11 migration 🫤
They’re building a 10th circle just for you.

Forgive me father for i have sinnedI’m sorry daddy, I’ve been naughty
It’s so easy, you can do it one-handed.
Frees up that other hand for multitasking fun.
People who use “your body is a temple” as an argument against tattoos or body modifications have never seen a fucking temple in their lives.
American Christian temples and churches are all boring and austere because having fun or enjoying anything is a sin. They are not representative of temples as a whole, but their constituents think they are (or else think they should be).
We’re all living in Amerika, Amerika ist wunderbar
Nice.
Decoration is sacred, and as such it is important to adorn your mortal home accordingly (ie, however it makes you happy).
Life is messy and beautiful. Imposing drabness onto others is an affront to nature.
I envy people with tattoos. I think when done weil they are cool and beautiful expressions. But I have never had anything I’m willing to have permanently etched on my body. I don’t even like the same things I liked last year.
This is the only body you get. It will inevitably wear out. The worse you treat it the faster it will wear out.
Keep in shape. Eat right. Don’t take stupid risks. Listen to your doctor. And modify it to your hearts desire, but analyze your desires.
Someday with fortune you will be old. I’ve spoken to a lot of old people. The things they say they regret aren’t things like tattoos, piercings, or transitioning. They regret not doing those things more often. But they also regret eating poorly and not exercising. They regret the injuries that now cripple them. And they regret not enjoying their time.
Many regret divorce.
HRT is permanent but so is the passage of time.
Not doing hrt also permenant.
Which woild you rather live with?
Is this a rhetorical question?
Nope! Your body’s do’in stuff, with or without your intent.
You are on sexed hormones. Whichever side of your skin they come from. They are doing their thing. It is permenant.
Inaction is not a real thing when you exist in so much fucking context; only ceding your turn to forces in motion.
Not always a bad thing. Maybe they’re doing what you need them to and you just want to float down the river.
…
that’s what I said but with many more words.
I think anyone who needed to hear it would have used the ambiguity to not do so.
A friend suggested to me that I get over this mindset by getting a tattoo. Instead, I’ve just been talking way too much about getting a tattoo.
Can never find an artist i like that does the thing i want.
That’s one of my current excuses. I may get around it by starting off with something stupid simple and small.
My guiding principle is “it isn’t mine-mine until I customise it.”
Do Estrogen recreationally!
This is stupid. “This is the only body you get” is a good point. The point is to think twice, not to not do it.
