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 (https://beesbuzz.biz/articles/5195-nullification-surgery) 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.

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 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/nacho-cheese-sodium-citrate_n_6108794 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.

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!"
