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 think when he finally dies, I'm gonna treat myself to the stupid expensive .308 rifle I want and take the chair he spent a decade rotting away in watching TV out to a quarry and put a couple hundred bucks of ammo through it and burn it with a jerry can of gas when I'm done
It'd be the send off he deserves and a little catharsis
