re: TERFs 

Somehow this completely factual revelation came to them from the fact that I mentioned a surgeon based in Oregon.

It's ridiculous pretzel logic, of course.

I guess they didn't see (or care about) all of the places where I went to great pains to say that I got that surgery because it was what was right for me.

Anyway I've blocked/reported them on twitter and on wordpress.com, so, there's that.

TERFs 

Today I found out that a couple years ago a couple of TERFs were trying to crusade against my GRS article (beesbuzz.biz/articles/5195-nul) using the completely expected "think of the children!!!" angle, because apparently that article is all about how I'm forcing 15-year-olds to undergo an expensive, niche neutrois surgery procedure and not about how I was providing information for people who want to know their options in an informed consent manner.

sure wish my body could tell me I'm overdoing it so I can stop doing things before I end up having my next day be completely hecked up with a pain flare

also sure wish this weren't a thing I'd have to wish for

Techbro Culture: Making Sure All Technology Falls Into The Wrong Hands

given that I feel like I didn't need to convert all my citric acid to sodium citrate, I could have just started nacho cheese sauce out by putting a pinch of each into the pot and let it react right before adding the cheese. Oh well.

okay so according to huffpost.com/entry/nacho-chees the trick is to dissolve it in a little liquid and then stir the grated cheese into the liquid

So far my experiments in actually USING it to make nacho sauce haven't been particularly successful though.

If you want to make nachos from scratch, first you must synthesize the sodium citrate.

Last night I wanted nachos, so I synthesized some sodium citrate (as you do), and

Back in the late 90s there was a recurring gag on Slashdot where people would, for some reason, make different parody accounts of Bruce Perens, with subtle misspellings or using punctuation or whatever to get a distinct username or whatever.

I just realized that it would have been *hilarious* to have one named "Bruce's Parents" who espouse about opensource from a pure capitalist standpoint, and the last post would be "Tonight we're going to the theatre!"
