Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Bee honey is pretty high, as far as I've read so far, and maple syrup isn't an improvement--I've seen agave (but since it's fructose, it has other downsides), coconut palm, brown rice, and xylitol. I've been assuming the rest are medium to high.

Good lord--depressing documentary alert--Atlantic City Hookers: It Ain't E-Z Being A Ho. Sunshine has no hair, no teeth, little hope, and a hell of a blow job and drug problem. And she's not the most depressing.

Alt.fan.pratchett was one of my first newsgroup obsessions.

Alt.music.Alternative was how I kickstarted my music writing career.

I used to publish fiction on rec.music.gdead, come to think of it. Good times. Didn't become a career, though.

Glycemic index of sweeteners chart [link] It is not clear to me at what point the numbers become acceptable, but, still, numbers.

Yacon is intriguing.

The average of most of the guides I read was effectively "over 50 is high, under 40 is low" so that's my general dividing criteria. However "glycemic load" and just a plain lack of agreement about who tests the index and how means I feel I'm just avoiding the worst stuff.

Always Anti-fascist!

I don't really remember(except a Tom Robbins group that was very much like this place, in spirit) but I spent a lot of time on Usenet.

soc.culture.african.american was MOBF before TT had MOBF. One of the places I left my full name before I knew not to use it recreationally. Also lots of time in racsfw, rast.*, rac.*, and back in the day when reading porn stories not about TV characters was a thing I did with any of my time--alt.sex.ita'sgettingeducated.

I was wondering about that. Glycemic index sounds so scientific and precise, but I don't know how you measure it or if there are actual standards.

Regardless of that, I hope it helps.
