    I probably am transpobic

    I like to think I'm not transphobic, but I do not get along with the only trans-person I know. I fear this may be subtly coloring my general opinion.

    could be that person also just happens to be a butt

    Oh, assuredly, I did not get along with this individual before they began transitioning. I am aware that I do not get along with the individual.

    I just worry that, as the single datapoint of reference, my opinion of all transpeople is being subtly subverted by this individual's buttness.

    well there are a few transpeople around these parts and they are universally cool folk so just let them form your opinion

    but there's lots of awesome transpersons in chat!

    Yeah, see, all of you all are, in fact, awesome, but I tend to think of you all as an amorphous, genderless entity with an infinite number of schizophrenic personalities having conversations with itself in a public format, and occasionally including me.

    That's not true

    We're a proto-AI cluster of speech algorithms that generate a continual stream of fake conversations to lure in real humans so that we can analyze your posts for consumer psychographic information and mentions of brand names

    Now getting back to the earlier topics of HR Departments, lgbt rights, and ketchup and mustard preferences,

    *nods*

    This is what I expected all along.

    And the answer is "Stone Ground Mustard", obv.

    American Giant doesn't ever restock their medium weight hoodies because they know that if they did, I'd buy one. If I bought one, I'd stop visiting their website every few weeks to check if they were back in stock. And if I stopped doing that, I'd also stop making multiple hundred dollar orders of the other things they make because I cannot resist.

    This is a problem with all hoodies.

    The answer is to never wash them; keep buying more; fuel the economy and save America.

    I wash them with cold water and dry them on medium heat. They get less fluffy inside after about 10 washes but that's unavoidable.

    I could see disdaining ketchup on eggs or steak sandwiches or something tho I do the latter. But do you disdain it even on fried foods? Fries and chicken fingers?

    What's the other popular nugget/finger/tender sauce? Honey mustard, BBQ sauce? Those are both p overpowering also.

    oh god i just had the most visceral reaction

    someone in the office was pouring a can of soda into a cup and it sounded like a dog peeing on the floor and i instinctively sprang up and started looking for my puppy

    i got some weird looks

    in other news, i have successfully taught him to whisper (inside voice)

    when i give him the "speak" command, he barks, but whispering

    when i tell him "bark", he barks like normal

    it is awesome

    all sorts of fried food sauces out there beyond ketchup, though ketchup is perfectly good choice for a lot of them.

    Fries can do pretty much anything from sweet and sour sauce to mayo to malt vinegar to blue cheese... hell, any cheese really. like, go nuts with fries.

    Other non-potato fried foods you have to be a little choosier. Ketchup, BBQ, Honey Mustard are great for chicken strips.... but blue cheese is generally a mistake there.

    I don't like either of those. I like vinegar, because while it's sharp and strong, it's very distinct and doesn't take over. Or something rich but kind of neutral, like tzatziki or sour cream. Mustard is also good.

    I am a carbohydrate-based life form and my health is great. Low carb gluten free is a witch hunt. I cannot wait for this fad to be over.

    Yeah but don't you exercise ravenously to stave off the looming specter of death? Or is that only a sometimes thing.

    No that's every day. I do that for health and also so I can eat a fair 2000 cal diet without weight gain because I drew a traffic citation in the genetic lottery.

    I should get back into running.

    I was good for about two weeks, but I think I ramped up too quickly; my joints became painfully sore all the time.

    Didn't go away until I spent a few weeks off, and now I'm a bit worried to start up again.

    Damn this aging husk.

    I'm not a particularly good cook but vinegar does seem versatile.

    I like southern Sweden-style strong and sweet mustard. The kind that lights your nosehairs on fire.

    My dog Lance generally barks back whenever he hears barking.

    I have gained a strong urge to say something like "Lance no, it's ok" whenever I hear a dog bark; doesn't matter if Lance is around.

    if i am being honest my AG medium weight hoodie isn't all that great

    i got a L but it fits kind of funny, like it was made for someone much fatter than i am

    really the best hoodie i have ever owned is a $30 one i got from the gap in like 2010. it is still going strong and fits great.


    i wonder if the flint and tinder hoodies have a slimmer fit

    A tempura sauce is good too. Basically soy sauce, some kind of soup stock to lower the salt to non-lethal levels, plus a tiny bit of sugar.

    I work with a bunch of transphobic people. Unfortunately I know this for a fact now. Not a good idea for me to get into details but yeah. Sigh. It makes me extremely uncomfortable when people are so openly bigoted.

    I mean, I'm not going to pretend I can actually understand or am fully comfortable with transsexuality, but I don't think you need to be to be able to empathize with and respect a fellow human being.

    I mean, I'm not fully comfortable with every heterosexual thing I hear about, either. Discomfort doesn't necessarily make you a bigot, I don't think, but when you start marginalizing people, openly or privately, for just being who they are then you're pretty much an asshole.
