Or just feel free to talk about it.

My profile picture is the Magician enemy from the game Persona 3, based on the major arcana.

I kept the picture because it reminds me of comfy when it's rounded.

Xenia first designed by Alan Mackey in 1996, was meant to be an alternative to Tux (who was also created by another artist outside the Linux foundation).

It was popularized again in 2019 in Twitter (not yet to be renamed to X dot com) where Xenia had her transition into the iconic transfem Linux/Free software enthusiast.

I like Xenia because she's my lucky charm against a lot of libertarian/ancap/capitalist chuds in the software/hacking space. Also trans.
