Short PSA:
WD-40 is not a lubricant. It is a brand of penetrating oil, also known as penetrating fluid. If you have metal parts that are rusted solid, WD-40 might help you get them to move so you can take them apart, but it evaporates quickly and leaves no lubrication behind.
So if you want to *oil* something, you need a lubricating oil. Which one depends, but which one is never WD-40.

Also putting this alongside my begpost: I have been looking for work for over 2 months now with nearly every application ghosting me or telling me that my resume is "impressive, but we're moving on with someone else".
If you know of Software Developer jobs that allow remote work, and do NOT, and this is non-negotiable, work in support of the DoD or any such military application, please feel free to send it my way.
My skills are mostly in C++/C# wrt my recent work, but I have experience using Java, Javascript, C, Python, as well as a billion different APIs. #FediHire #fedijobs

“I spoke with a Google worker fired for protesting a $1.2 billion contract with Israel”
"Yeah, this was retaliation, like completely indiscriminate—people who had just walked by just to say hello and maybe talk to us for a little bit. They were fired." https://www.thehandbasket.co/p/google-worker-fired-protest-israel-project-nimbus
⚠️ It's a trap ⚠️ (please boost for reach)
I was just informed that the Guardian (UK) is prepping to do a story on DIY HRT and is looking to interview trans folk, particularly teens.
The story will almost certainly be weaponized by conservatives to argue for removing access to the necessary materials.
Just like with the police, anything you say can and will be used against you by mainstream media.
Be safe out there fam

Update #2: God dammit Guardian US, I retract my kudos to you. This is why we can't have nice things.
Update #1: I wanted to share this article that was brought to my attention. The US Guardian wrote a piece that really gets to the heart of why I'm sounding a warning, while also helping to frame that this isn't directed at the .com Guardian—they seem to have a healthy viewpoint on how trans people should be treated.
