Pro-trans voice silenced and sidelined. Meanwhile, anti-trans voice says she'd rather have a suicidal daughter than let her transition because "she was incapable of making those decisions and I had to make those decisions for her." YIKES.

@spottyfox - My version of this is "The Mayonaisse Incident."

I think the next batch of bread will not have poppy seeds on them. THAT STUFF GETS EVERYWHERE.

Forgot how good bread dipped in olive oil with spices is. Especially when it's bread you made yourself.

Really feeling this lately.

Okay, all of April's bills paid, and May rent paid. June rent is saved, and I think I can make all of the May's bills even if the severance doesn't come in.

But it better come in. I kinda need it.

Only three BIOS flashes in twenty five years, and this is the first one that actually WORKED. And hey, Wake On LAN works now, she said turning her apartment into a freakin' Borg Cube.

@Aminorjourney - Same, but picking up Austin and moving it here would be easier than getting my family out of Texas.

@Aminorjourney - A visit or short term back in Texas wouldn't be illegal per-se with this bill, as my treatment would still be in Seattle. But if things get bad, and I think they will, I could straight up be illegal there.

This would kill any return to Texas. While I've always planned for a return some day, it's been doubtful for years...but this would end that.

I honestly believe at this point, this is a move to get this in front of the Supreme Court, which will likely side with the Missouri Attorney General. Not so much to force Transgender healthcare to be demolished (that's just the plate delivering the dessert), but to give the Attorney Generals of all states huge powers.

Does anyone remember these phone lines that would have games on the other end you'd play by pressing numbers, or would have facts and figures, even sports scores? They never charged money...so I used to spend hours on them late at night in the mid 80s.

It's here....

I ran into Redmond today for a dental appointment, and decided to give Five Guys a second try. My first Five Guys burger was cold and had turned into a solid slab of fat, which didn't exactly enamor me. So I tried it hot.

Actually a fairly good burger! Close to Whataburger in flavor, but not quite there. But it has a problem: it's far too gooey. It's a hamburger paste once you're about halfway through the burger. Also, no way I ccan finish even small fries, and I don't like wasting food.

If it weren't for those two things, it'd probably be my Whataburger surrogate up here.

I look at this crumb structure in the heel of the bread where it didn't collapse and think, yeah, I think it's the oven that caused the bread to collapse. This looks like real bread.

Aw, the Old Alsatian Restaurant in Castroville is gone. :(

If the Altdorf Biergarten and Old German Bakery in Fredericksburg and Alpine Haus Restaurant in New Braunfels ever close, what even is the Texas Hill Country anymore?

I will always, ALWAYS, love the NASA Worm Logo.
