Turns out the gym and leather photos are simply not there on Aphyr's twitter anymore—there were a lot of them a while ago, but apparently run-ins with Twitter moderation didn't wor…

Ah! Somehow I completely missed that they're supposed to be fashion designers. Thanks. > top performing drag artists Well I guess then that to understand the appeal of ‘Drag Race’ …

Okay... thanks for the effort, at least. I've been meaning to get somewhat into early-ish burlesque, Brecht, that kind of thing. Maybe then I'll be able to watch drag shows with va…

Well apparently I need an AI to tell me what's ‘trolling’ on HN, because gym and leather don't mean ‘dumb flamewar’ to me. If mentions of gym and leather trigger HN's crowd, I don'…

I heard that astigmatism is the reason some people find reading white-on-black intolerable: the edges shift from their proper places, look doubled, this kind of stuff. Idk if astig…

That's what I'm saying, in part. Mr. Moolenaar's reports on his own on-the-grounds activities are quite clear (from what I remember now, a bunch of years later), and the goal of ‘b…

Gotta say, when I read about how Bram Moolenaar, the author and maintainer of Vim, works sometimes to build schools in remote areas of Uganda and encourages users to donate to that…
