So very pleased to see that they haven't changed a bit in my absence!
Also, you gave me some helpful thistle-removal advice in the comments to the post from two years ago that's referenced above. My weed problems are so much worse now - chamomille! morning glory! augh! - that seeing this gave me a warm nostalgic feeling. So ... hello!
Damn. I read the opening line here and got excited because I thought that yes, this was going to be the Deep Thoughts. Alas.
I live in hope.
But then, there was this lovely consolation nugget:
let's say that her worldview and my worldview are not closely congruent
That's a lovely phrase. I'm going to have to remember it for future use. It explains everything, and in a way that is hard to take offense at.
Although if someone really were that wackadoodle, I'm sure that she could take offense at it. If she tried. Anyway, a nice way of putting it, and I'm going to steal that sometime.
And you outed Laura Hale? Wow. Of course, that assumes that you did know it was her actual RL name and not just another pseud (of which she has several). I wasn't sure myself 'til yesterday that this really was her RL, but someone who claims to have met her posted that she was sure it was.
Please! Steal that line! It's especially apropos that you should ask, considering that the original wank, in the two-year-old post, was about plagiarism.

It's completely squee-worthy, esp. the young Tom Riddle here.
