“Trans rights” (photo centers drag queens).

I mean, allies are a thing of course, but most trans women, including myself, resent being confused for drag queens. Most drag queens aren’t trans, they’re entertainers.

What’s nice about the fediverse is that you can say this and I can agree and upvote without our accounts getting banned. That, and people over on the other site are clutching pearls about this.

I think it’s time to make Alberta a territory.

Happy to see Last Night on this list

Beneath A Steel Sky (though I kinda prefer the grungier aesthetic of the Amiga floppy version)

For backing up my home folder, I just plug in my external drive and use rsync from the terminal, like so (change to your user name; mine is gecko. Double check the paths and edit as necessary)

rsync -av /home/gecko/ /media/gecko/media/emmahomebackup/ --delete --dry-run (test first, check for errors at the end of output, there shouldn’t be any unless you messed up the paths)

then,

rsync -av /home/gecko/ /media/gecko/media/emmahomebackup/ --delete

This command will back up your home folder the first time you run it, and on subsequent runs will sync any changes that have occured since the last run.

To restore, reverse the paths.

For backing up my system files (basically, everything outside of my home folder) I just use Timeshift.
