My name is Elizabeth but please call me Lisa.
I'm probably best known as the person who started the #Safari and #WebKit projects at #Apple. You may think you know my deadname but... you don't.
I've drawn underground comics, pioneered using a Mac for newspaper graphics and developed software at Adobe and Netscape.
Now I write video #transcoding scripts and sometimes podcast.
Follow me and I'll fill your timeline with boosts.

Confused? If you followed my old account before then you're still following me now.
Being #transgender means I'm changing my account name to reflect my new identity.
I plan to keep greeting new arrivals, boosting loads of toots and making occasional pithy comments.
Nothing changes here on Mastodon other than my name and pronouns (she/her, BTW).

My apologies if you're a former co-worker, old friend or distant relative finding out that I'm #transgender from this toot and you think I should have told you sooner.
But I know a LOT of people and it's simply not practical for me to have that many intimate conversations first.
So I'm telling you all now about the joy I feel. 💖

Some of you might have questions about me "suddenly" being #transgender. I get that. And you can go ahead and ask.
Just keep in mind that I might not answer all your questions or even respond immediately. Please allow a girl a bit of discretion and time.
Thank you all for listening. I appreciate you so much! 🥰
