Hey all! Our son's boyfriend is working on a project to develop a compendium of Transmasc Comfort Characters from books, movies, TV, and video games.
He'd love it if you'd fill out this survey with your favorite characters! Whether their transmasc status is canon or not - if that character comforts you, please include them.
Please BOOST! :)
Edit: Fixed - you can now submit multiple characters!
Welcome!
Your answers here will be added to my ongoing compendium of canon and implied transmasculine characters in media. By completing this survey, you are doing a lot to support the transmasc community!
What do people think of this response to ‘generate detailed Alt Text’ by Gemini:
Here is some detailed alt text for the image you provided: Alt Text: A large, menacing grey cat, reminiscent of a monster, stands on its hind legs with its front paws raised. It has glowing yellow eyes and a wide, toothy grin. The cat is surrounded by a fiery aura as it emits a powerful beam of energy from its mouth. The beam is directed towards the Empire State Building in New York City, which is engulfed in flames. The city skyline is visible in the background, with tall buildings and smoke rising from the destruction. The overall tone of the image is chaotic and destructive, evoking a sense of fear and awe. Additional Notes: • You may want to adjust the description of the cat's appearance based on its specific characteristics. • If the image is part of a larger context (like a movie poster or book cover), you could add a brief reference to that context. • The alt text should be concise and informative, providing a clear description of the image without being overly detailed. Let me know if you have any other questions.
I can't see the image myself, but where I was seeing this would matter.
The description is great as a longer form piece. But I can see a time not too far away when that's the standard way of having alt text on book covers or thumbnails in search results.
Then I go from just wanting "a monstrous cat shooting energy at the Empire State Building" to no alt text at all depending on where I am and what I'm doing. That brief descriptor would suit me on a product page of a shop, for instance, but I'd find having that in my search results or list of products annoying enough, to say nothing of the hundred words you have there.
There is a mechanism in html for longer descriptions that is very rarely used. Perhaps it could be revived for this sort of thing.
In times like these, vis. US election, I like to remind myself of the sticking power of America. With something like this. youtube.com/watch?v=nROK4cjQVX…

Activistas del Instituto de Estudios Miñoráns y de la asociación SOS Serra de la Groba reflexionan sobre sus recientes victorias judiciales frente las empresas promotoras de parques eólicos en la zona del Val Miñor (Pontevedra)
Y presentáis la obstaculización de la transición energética como algo positivo?
fueron capaces de presentar 80 recursos administrativos, uno por cada parque eólico proyectado en Galicia. Actualmente, y gracias a su trabajo y el de muchas otras asociaciones, han conseguido la paralización cautelar de 59 proyectos.
> And we as a people, especially millennials and Gen X-ers prone to such intense nostalgia, must also reject the 80s, which I know you hate to hear, but that you must hear. It is essential in the fight against fascism.
I recognize that I've indulged in 80s nostalgia quite a bit in the past year or so, especially retreating into my childhood Apple II memories. No more. Time to live in the present.

Vypadá to, že se té objednávky u Alzy nedočkám ani dnes. Nevím ani, co si mám pod tím odůvodněním představit. Řidič zabloudil, ožral se, nebo to ztratil, nebo kombinace všeho? Naštěstí tu objednávku zas tak rychle nepotřebuju, klidně si ještě týden počkám, ale je to divné. Není to poprvé, co se tohle zpoždění u Alzy stalo, ale vždycky se to posunulo maximálně o den a pak už jsem si to mohl vyzvednout, navíc jsem dostal slevu na další nákup.

Leasey 9.1 is released. This supports JAWS version 2025 and earlier. Anyone who has a license for version 9 can use this product. Note: This is not an update so is not available via check for updates. Please be sure you are installing the product you are licensed for.
If you are installing JAWS 2025 for the first time, please be sure to read the JAWS 2025 Setup Guide. Just go to any page on the web site and look for the term 2025.
For anyone who needs help installing JAWS 2025 and Leasey, please be sure you have Remote Incident Manager installed. Installing RIM is the only way you can be assisted. Again, there is a link to RIM on every page of the web site, close to the top. A day and time can then be arranged with you to install the software and check the computer is optimised for best performance.
Thank you to our loyal beta testers who have tested this version. This has not been the smoothest of processes. In many ways, JAWS 2025 handles controls and environments very differently than any previous version which has been in place for many years, and a balance has had to be struck as to what we should fix through Leasey and elements which should be left alone.
Enjoy using the product! After Christmas, the process of building Leasey version 10 will begin. hartgen.org/leaseydemo

They will be free for angels that already have worked.

Two students who discovered a novel proof of the Pythagorean theorem in 2022 have wowed the math community again with nine completely new solutions to the problem.
While still in high school, Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson from Louisiana used trigonometry to prove the 2,000-year-old Pythagorean theorem, which states that the sum of the squares of a right triangle's two shorter sides are equal to the square of the triangle's longest side (the hypotenuse).
Mathematicians had long thought that using trigonometry to prove the theorem was unworkable, given that the fundamental formulas for trigonometry are based on the assumption that the theorem is true.
Jackson and Johnson came up with their "impossible" proof in answer to a bonus question in a school math contest. They presented their work at an American Mathematical Society meeting in 2023, but the proof hadn't been thoroughly scrutinized at that point.
Now, a new paper published Monday (Oct. 28) in the journal American Mathematical Monthly shows their solution held up to peer review. Not only that, but the two students also outlined nine more proofs of the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry. livescience.com/physics-mathem…
In a new peer-reviewed study, Ne'Kiya Jackson and Calcea Johnson outlined 10 ways to solve the Pythagorean theorem using trigonometry, including a proof they discovered in high school.
I was hoping to release a more complete version as 1.0, but that's taking a while, and people are already starting to use it as it is (especially with the impending shuttering of #WhatsApp on KaiOS) so I decided to get this out right away 📦
I've also submitted to the #BananaStore, so hopefully it should be out there soon 🍌

Dear geek/libre comrades, I have a queer-stion for you: Do we know if the first communities -in the 80's and 90's- around the development of critical computing (?) and its evolution towards free software were related to the homosexual liberation movement and the fight against AIDS? Thanks
