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.

How bad is it that I accidentally injected a decent amount (0.01-0.05 ml) into my thigh? I switched needles after drawing the estrogen and forgot to push the air out. I stopped after I realized but I don’t know if any of the air came out
It's not a problem unless it's IV. There's a bunch of surgeries where they basically inflate your abdomen to make things easier and your body just absorbs and gets rid of it. A tiny injection is nothing.
A lot of medications come with air in the syringe as a “lock” to help keep the medication in once injected. You see it a lot with blood thinners and vaccines. You don’t want a ton but like 0.1mL is fine. Doing IV stuff you want to avoid bubbles but even then it’s like a solid amount of air that’d cause an issue.
okay so my best understanding of this is that a) air in the needle is only dangerous if u inject it into a vein by accident, and b) it needs to be more air than that in order to kill you and c) it would have happened already if it were gonna
obviously it is important to remove the air in case u do actually hit a vein, u don't wanna rely on anything, but obv i understand accidents happen.
and also not a doctor
Ok thanks
