And for the more basic among us, an excellent French toast base. Even more basic, heated a little in microwave (or grilled, or heated in a dry pan) and a helping of wa custard tipped on top. A sprinkle of orange (any) liqueur before heating is extra bonus.

Yeah, I loathe those "cultural feminist" types (not least bc of their coining terms like "wombyn"). At a dance (also in the 80s), one of yelled at me for being "male-identified" - apparently my gf and I appeared too butch/femme for her. She prob would've had an aneurysm if she knew the gf was bi.

I couldn't see that reply, so I assume they've made it onto at least one blocklist

Yeah, nah. The Kinsey scale isn't perfect, and there's plenty of social programming, but non-celeb, not just gay-for-play bi women definitely exist. I've been involved with several; unlike some ppl, my ego isn't so delicate it bothers me if they hook up with a dude next.

And Lois McMaster Bujold, of a similar vintage. Literally got her start writing and publishing ST fanfic in a zine.

Idk where this meme that it's an identifier of AI-written material has come from, bc it isn't accurate. Oxford comma usage is common in formal US writing styles, so it's kind of dumb to think it's a marker. (In EN, you *don't* need a comma with a conjunction, but for clarity or house style, fine)

Cool - it can be frustrating finding workarounds (IF they exist), but good on you making the effort!

Some mushroom types may be better, and it's mainly mannitol of concern, if you're sensitive to that. Ofc, it's the common fresh button mushroom and portobellos, etc, that are on the "not great" list. But oyster mushrooms, some tinned mushrooms, and small quantities of shiitake/porcini might be OK

😨

(couldn't help myself)

Even if I did have a printer, which I don't and never will, what then? Print the stupid thing, scribble and hope said printer has a scan function? Take a photo? I mean, if you can't provide a relatively secure web form (why not, in this day and age), at least provide a decent PDF form.
