Bi, geek, genderqueer, sf&f fan, in no particular order. Pronouns: he or they. I blog at https://www.bigeekfan.com
#pencils So I have these novelty Star Wars pencils gifted by a co-worker, but they're really not that good. The decorative surface is shrink-plastic (I live on a costal city so I'm really trying to cut back on microplastic crap) and the ferrule is crap.
"Queer Time" A nice overview of articles about how growing up LGBTQ disrupts many of the traditional markers of "adulthood."

#Pride Month is over, but I want to leave y'all with one thought about visibility.
When I was young, I didn't know what #bisexual meant—thought I was a broken straight.
I want people to see me and know that being bi+ doesn't have a damn thing to do with your ability to love as you will, including the possibility of being in an awesome relationship like the one I've had for over twenty years.
I want some young bisexual to know that and not beat themselves up for decades. I want them to love themselves. ❤️

I'm thinking something like the Bloodflies from Dishonored 2, but in a contemporary setting.
Current badness: Slap-fights over exactly what sexuality terms we can use to talk about Thompson, Monae, and Noodle.
Not so dumb idea of the day: Alien parasite horror but in documentary style from the perspective of health care workers treating victims and survivors.
Upskirt photographer's shoe explodes, ends up talking to both hospital and police:
I still get pagination for my elisp indexes though.
There are kind of two problems going on with my hugo install right now. 1. It helpfully applies pagination to JSON indexes that don't really need it. 2. the jsonify function seems to be getting slower.
Of course, since what I really wanted was an easy way to import metadata into emacs, I ended up hacking hugo to dump a lisp structure.
Dumb distraction of the day, chasing edge cases and stats to document a probable bug in hugo, then submitting the bug report.
