After the #TransVoiceTraining app insists on allowing massive tracking or me giving google my payment-info to purchase the full version, I’ve started to write my own one. You can try it here: https://ftvt.fiona.onl
All the data-processing is purely in your browser, you can literally just download /main.{html, js, css}, store them locally and open main.html in your browser; the only data that my server stores are the access-log and error-log of nginx.
Now to be very clear: I am not a good web-dev at all, this is kinda my first (depending on what you count: second) somewhat serious project that produces dynamic-websites. The code-base is also not yet cleaned up at all, so don’t be too harsh on that. Furthermore there are a lot of features and improvements that I (or someone else? you?) might add later. Aka: This is more of an open-alpha, but some of you might still find it useful.

If you are #trans and a minor in #Missouri, the #MOleg has taken your access to transition healthcare away. (Because they're awful people with empty lives, and I'm sorry they have power over us.)
There is a program that will help connect you and your parents with gender-affirming medical care in another state, with small grants to help with travel:

I just pulled multiple triggers on multiple projects today that will be my 2024. One of them will even be a paying one, although less a salary, and more a stipend.
I find it funny that all this happened on the solsctice, moving into 2024. 2024 is going to be a very different year than I've had before. Better? I'm hoping so. But definitely different.
Watched a video that uses the new Dr Who theme in it, and I kind of got wistful for the Jodie Whittaker theme. The New Who theme is very happy and flighty and fun. Jodie's is Dark and Ominous. And as a fan of the old series, I preferred Dark and Ominous.
I have a feeling Jodie's time on New Who will kind of echo Season 18/19 of Doctor Who, where we got a new producer and new script editor who decided to jettison all the slapstick and overt humor and base the show in better science and drama (and a better budget). And it was a Big Change to what came before, and arguably, the beginning of the end of the classic show.
Or, like me, you actually liked that direction for Season 18 and 19. I liked some of the changes made for Jodie's run. Sadly, it really ran out of steam super quick and Jodie was left with some lackluster stuff for her final seasons.
