Hey there kiddos!

It's your GAYINT Internet Auntie, here to have some real talk. There's a whole bunch of major holidays coming up (US Thanksgiving, then a whole slew of other days throughout December/January depending on your region/religion). And holidays are stressful.

That goes double when you're. Well. Kinda different. Maybe queer, maybe neurodivergent, both, something else... Look. Holidays are complicated at the best of times. And, these are, quite frankly, not the best of times.

Maybe you're with your family and you wish you were a thousand miles away. Maybe you're a thousand miles away and you wish you were with your family. Maybe you're glad to be with your family, but they can be a bit a bit much. And it's easy to feel like you're the problem.

Listen.

Really listen.

You. Are. Not. A. Problem.

You are perfect just the way you are.

You are doing the best you can in a system that is working against you every step of the way. And you're still here.

Quite frankly, that is *amazing*. *You* are *amazing*, sweetie!

Whether its your family, or your friends, or your pocket friends, or just your Internet Auntie, know that there's people who love you and cherish you and want nothing but the best for you.

I'm not gonna lie to you and say everything's gonna be fine, but I can absolutely tell you with certainty that you're not alone, okay?

And remember: you're doing *amazing*!

The annoyance of cookie banners

No data-harvesting cookies = No banner.
Simple.

My websites have no cookie banners,
because they don't use any non-essential cookies and don't track visitors.

Yours shouldn't either.

I originally saw this with "my performance review" as a header.

Valve announce limited edition blue Steam Machine, “It is a piece of Andalite technology that the Yeerks do not have,” Gabe explained, “A technology that enables us to pass unnoticed in many parts of the universe - the power to morph. We have never shared this power. But your need is great.”

I am an IEEE 754 NaN value. You are an IEEE 754 NaN value. We are not the same.
