11 months agomemoir: Vassar on censorship; Heinlein vs. Serano

memoir: Vassar on censorship; Heinlein vs. Serano

The Heinlein tidbit is definitely worth mentioning somewhere (I hadn't
previously blogged it, and if this is where it shows up in my
correspondence history, I guess this is where it shows up in the
memoir and therefore the blog), but I wasn't sure whether it was worth
the wordcount to summarize the whole thread, or if I should gloss it
over with "during a conversation about Milo"—but I'm actually feeling
good about this use of wordcount? It's giving the audience a taste of
who Vassar is (which I can't summarize).

memoir: stub out a pt. 8?!—this is retarded

The story was supposed to end with the Eliezerfic fight!

Even as the early 2023 moderation slapfight started escalating, I had
thought it was out-of-scope for the memoir—I was just going to say, "I
got into another slapfight about me being un-collaborative, which is
not interesting enough to summarize." But the persecution of Said is
significant enough that it becomes part of the story, and actually
throws stuff from back in "If Clarity" into new light: previously,
Said only merited one brief mention (in the Vanessa slapfight; I
wasn't even going to mention his role in the Ruby slapfight), and I
was intending to self-censor a bit in order to not attack Ruby and Ray
(who don't seem like "public figures" who are fair game for attack the
way that Yudkowsky and Alexander are). Now, Said's role looks much
more significant in retrospect, Ruby and Ray's psychology seems
important (rather than censorable), there are parallels to explore
between Said's scapegoating and Michael's ... all in all, I'm feeling
that I don't want to publish "If Clarity" onwards until the moderation
fight is resolved—but that's 25 July at the earliest!

In light of this development, I think I want to polish and publish
just pt. 1–3 (I guess I'm dropping the numbering scheme where "Sexual
Dimorphism" was pt. 1?), "Blanchard's Dangerous Idea" to "Hill of
Validity", and get it out in June—which doesn't mean abandoning the
other parts of the ms., but does mean dropping them from my immediate
publishing target (while the Said situation is still unresolved and I
still have active bad feelings about it).

(Or maybe "It does not, actually, have a happy ending" in December
2019 is the natural cutpoint, and then next post would be relatively
short, but not too short, because it covers both "Trans Kids on the
Margin" (early 2020) and the "Lenore" disaster (late 2020)? Okay,

check in ... and thinking about an advance

Given that a lot of the unwritten sections are in pt. 4 and 6, I'm
thinking that I should prioritize getting a pt. 2 draft filled out, so
that I can polish and publish pts. 2 and 3 sooner (without 4–6 having
been done yet). It impose a little bit of communication overhead on my
friends re: clearances, but probably not insufferably much.

For now, I should just focus on cranking out 1000-wordcount days
(tomorrow, and the 27–31) as planned, but on 2 April, maybe I should
think about what it would look like to shove pt. 2 and 3 out the door
early?

So much time pressure in the current year.

13 months agomemoir: some fine details to the parts about "Helen" and Sophia

memoir: some fine details to the parts about "Helen" and Sophia

Writing is impossible! (Even little parts of the story that don't
"really matter" have all sorts of little details to them—I added a
point to the far editing tier where I still don't think I got this
right—and I want to explain the details correctly because I think it's
a cute window onto the tapestry of my life, but if I spend too long on
every detail, then I'm not going to finish telling the Whole Dumb
Story before the world ends)
