Xenia, the fox girl mascot of Linux, was first designed in 1996 by Alan Mackey. She was meant to be an alternative to Tux, the official mascot.
She had fallen into obscurity, but was noticed by a Twitter user in 2019 and was redrawn as a fox girl. But as it turned out, Xenia was originally meant to be male! The original creator, Alan, was cool with this, saying "It matches the transition of a lot of the smartest, nerdiest Linux users I know" and "And sure, you made her trans!".
So now we have a trans Linux mascot. And I think that's neat.

i am attempting a scientific experiment. i have been using a plant oil that is supposed to act as a topical antiandrogen that reduces sensitivity to androgens in the places u rub it in, leading to less hair. i have been using it on my face for a couple weeks and it feels like it's changing.
BUT
i plan to conduct an experiment on my arm hairs. i'm gonna do the exact same hair removal on each arm, but i'm gonna put the oil on one arm, for 6 months. i will report on the results.
Please keep us informed
will do!
I used this oil before if it's the same I'm thinking of. Unfortunately it didn't really do anything for me after a few months, but other people swear by it and have said they had good results. Maybe it's an application error on my part? Not sure how I could mess that up but if anyone could it'd be me.
Anyway I'm curious to see the outcome of your experiment
as far as i know the main thing is to do hair removal, then put the oil on. but i assume u know that already. i will report in a few months anyway
very interesting, pls keep at it!
ooo like reverse monoxidil. i also would like your results
between the DIY electrolysis device, this, and other stuff this place is turning into the bleeding edge of DIY trans healthcare
