It's so here I am being visibly trans! Hi! I'm Ash and I'm an autistic, chronically depressed ADHD trans woman. I started my transition about 8 years ago and these days I'm a lead game designer at Avalanche Studios, I own my own apartment in Stockholm, and I have many people who love me dearly. It has been and continues to be tough sometimes but I'm alive and I'm doing pretty well.

Blughhhh. I want to like Obsidian. It's super cool, I love all it's features and extensibility etc. But I can't take capture small notes quick enough or scroll through my list of existing notes as easily as Google Keep. It's insane that Keep is the best tool for this I've found for myself, but I'm still here. 🤷

I've tried a couple of the different AI art applications that take a bunch of photos of your face and then generate a model of your face and then render it out in different styles etc, cause I'm forever curious about how I'm seen by different parts of the world, and I haven't liked any of the outputs from any of them. Why not? They all make me look more cis. And not just more passing but more cis in ways that are not my face, in ways that lack the battle scars left by testosterone that say "I fought for my womanhood and I continue to fight for it every day." Who is this girl these machines imagine? With her softer, rounder, prettier features? She's not me.
