"Zen & The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" is in my list! I only read "In Search of the Miraculous" when I was 22 or 23, though...

In eev I use M-e as a shorthand for C-e C-x C-e, but highlighting is optional and only happens when I type M-0 M-e... take a look: http://anggtwu.net/eev-intros/find-eev-quick-intr…

It was "trans women are going to rape children _or something like that_". Most reactions that I saw about J.K. Rowling's 3600-word essay point out that she equates transness with i…
