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.

So much pain. I'm so hungry right now. I haven't eaten in a day and a half. I'm starting to cry. If/when I eat something the pain is going to get worse.
Why am I such a failure. Broken. A waste.
that sounds really difficult i'm sorry you're having to suffer through this
spoiler
You are not a failure, you are not broken, and you are not a waste
I don't know whether or not it would help with the type of pain you're describing, but it's probably a good idea to eat. Make sure you're drinking water as well. I really hope you start to feel better soon, and I wish I could do more to help

Mental pain. My head hurts. I don't know why. Maybe it's pre transition stuff. Maybe it's just how it is for me. :meow-hug: thank you.
