:isopod:

when you look into the past with electronics and computing you find all these wacky wild ideas that faded away or got phased out or failed on arrival. all this neat weird stuff.

mods, give him the anki flashcards and a study guide

That trans girl that you follow, the one that you see as amazing and cool and goals? The one that seems to have a ton of friends and followers? She's just a normal girl, with normal feelings and, more importantly, normal hidden struggles. Your interactions and kind words might actually make her day when she's feeling down, or insecure, or feeling the pressure of social interactions due to any number of things. Remember, there's always just a normal girl behind that screen. ​:asuka_love:
