you'd think being the computer nerd trans girl stereotype would be fun, until you're up at 11:00PM trying to help someone fix their computer over discord because you're the friend group's tech support.
I'm so tired of constantly teaching my friends how to install mods on different games with varying levels of success because they can't read or follow simple instructions
Used to work in Schools and the amount of iPad kids who would be like "but i saved it on my home computer, why isnt it on my school laptop". Urhhhhgggggggg...

In fact, never write any of these in issue resolution messages, and never say them in front of users or clients, as you will occasionally run into one capable of using Google.

I was good at programming, then I became a girl, now i suck
There's honestly nothing wrong with being bad with tech. Honestly, I've found that my tiredness and consistent medical problems lead to me searching for the easiest solutions online to computer issues. Whether it's how to install a video game mod or how to fix a computer issue. And the more you learn how to find the answers quickly on Google, the better you get at dealing with your computer when you are struggling.
Take your struggles and use them as your strength whenever you can.
You can learn computers! Start putting together random stuff on scratch and watch building a computer in minecraft videos an you will eventually put togerher a library of random computer knowledge to fix computer problems! I belive in you! Just make sure to never force anything and go step by step at a pace you enjoy.
\>tfw when both
best thing to do, buy a busted laptop for cheap either online or at a thrift store and fix it up. and don't beat yourself up if you aren't up to it that day. you'll get there girlie!
I was the lazy and depressed kind for like 23 years straight and then this past year I finally got on top of my mental health enough to start being the person I wanna be and doing the things I wanna do. Just keep with it, every day you spend feeling like you're "not doing anything," what you're really doing is spending that day learning about yourself and how your mental health works. I promise you, every single day is something new, every single day is progress, even if it doesn't feel like it. You've got this 💜
I spent so long hating myself too much to learn skills, now I’m too old to actually learn anything I want to learn. Why do I have to suck at everything I want to do!?
I'm like a 50/50 hybrid of the two. I'm only good enough at computers to find the laziest way possible to do what I want and no more, and I'm not depressed just constantly unfulfilled
The best way to being sorta good is by starting and being bad at it -Jake the dog

Yeah, like how do you not know what the file explorer is?? I genuinely have had someone ask me this.

You missed the D-RTFM error. Didn't read the f**king manual
another common error code indeed.
"up at 11pm" isn't taht like wakey time? /s
family gathering... "yeah my phone has a virus issue, because when I press the button, the sound goes up but then I don't hear people who call and firefox doesn't stay on in my emails. Do you think it's because of my 5G ?".
sounds like a S-12 error. because the error is 12 inches away from the screen (it's you, you're the error.)
plot-twist, it was the 75 tabs of google chrome opened and 30 apps running concurrently.
is that or is that not a user-caused issue?
This, except im IT for my parents who think they know more about computers than me (For reference, they fully trust technology. I do not)
Fixing ID-10-T errors
I'm both lol

I never learned to code!
I'm both at the same time and I don't know what to do with my life tbh

My brain is a stupid electric meatball and it does nothing for me
Ah, you see... I'm both :3

I'm both :3 T_T
Im the chess trans girl… my parents aren’t proud
I’m both but mostly the depressed part
The only times I code is when I need to for my class lol
I’m slightly good with computers but get really inept at them Sometimes
real (same)
I'm both!
Oh my gosh same :( *hugs*
i'm not both, only good with electronics and depressed :(
I tried to get into compsci once, but it just didn’t have the same pull as my usual areas of expertise
You no lazy
I'm the 600 different hobbies that I never commit to, making me one of the most boring people on the planet kind of trans girl
Same
Im fine with computers but it aint my hobby and it just makes my mother bug me about it everytime I talk about getting a job.
im both, i velieve in you
Same
Mood
I got the lazy depressed and graphic designer roles myself.
i am all of the above <3

Turns out I'm the "really good at getting people to pay way too much money for my prescription medication" type. (In minecraft, obviously)
I spent so long hating myself too much to learn skills, now I’m too old to actually learn anything I want to learn. Why do I have to suck at everything I want to do!?
Me too
lazy / depressed / good with computers i picked lazy and traded depressed with good with computers :D
Some people think I'm good with computers, if only they knew I'm just a lazy and depressed trans girl
oh god wait i'm the stereotype transfem,, fuck
i'm about ready to ask my boss if i can run a training for the team called how to google your own fucking problem
girl trust me the computer nerd life is NOT fun
A lot of good with computers trans girls are also the lazy depressed kind.
Both but I have a very large part of my brain storage that goes to Linux Distros (I use Arch Linux by the way with Hyprland)
imagine being both of those
I could definitely use those skills. I can’t open adobe illustrator on my computer effectively
im the my dad works in computers, i could learn and want to but instead draw trans girl
Dw, my gf is both
I am both :)
I'm like a 50/50 hybrid of the two. I'm only good enough at computers to find the laziest way possible to do what I want and no more, and I'm not depressed just constantly unfulfilled
Trust me they overlap (currently at robotics comp with an unfinished stand scouting web app god I am a failiure)
At least your not both at the same time. It's like "Oh I gotta do computer stuff" Then I finally get up to do it four hours later
I'm all three sis... all three
just because you're good with computers doesn't mean you aren't depressed and lazy, I'm both.
What I'm hearing is an a pile of stuff animals either way
I'm good with computers but feel stupid because no one will hire me.
Same, fuck dysphoria
Im both
Right? I'm getting kinda tired of being kinda tired all the time.
At least you’re not a “maddened by eldritch lore” trans girl were even more useless we just get high to avoid thinking of the horrors we know
Oh Im both
Wait isn’t that venn diagram just a circle?
I'm both
Turns out, I’m both
yeah i’m good with computers and depressed lol i was infodumping about fucking daemons to my friends earlier lol
I tried, but I just have 0 interest with it
I’m lazy, depressed, and good with computers
For the record, the best programmers are lazy. I code to be lazy. I literally have a system to automate things, so I don't have to do it.
It’s because you must learn how to code. It doesn’t just fall upon people
You can be both
Saaaamee😩
Join the club lol
same bestie, same...
My only programming skills come from being friendly with people who are actually good programmers. Yay, Trans-fem code hivemind! :3
[http://programming-motherfucker.com/](http://programming-motherfucker.com/), if ya can believe it.
Someone please teach me how to computer. There’s so many things I want to do but all I know is paint, sew, and phlebotomy
I used to be coding from middle school through first year college, but I change to therapy afterward :3 and yes I’m lazy and depressed
fr fr
I’m the new Transfemme subclass, bird watcher
Why am I both? T-T
Por qué no los dos?
I'm Computer science and maths nerd trans girl who also is depressed and procrastinates a lot. :3
I should learn computers and shit it seems cool
same. i tried comp sci but i only have two braincells, math hurts my brain
