  My first thought was that odd numbers have soft edges, and even numbers are hard. I didn’t really know why I feel this way, but I always have. Your comment made me realise that geometry might have something to do with it.

  What I still don’t fully understand though, is why I attribute personality types to numbers the way I do. Why do I think that 7 is dim–witted, and 2 is arrogant? You don’t have to have an answer. I just think about it sometimes.

  I’m not at all superstitious, but so quick to attach sentimental value to things that I would instinctively know that this salt can never be thrown away or used in cooking for the rest of my life. I’d have to get an ornate urn for that salt, and it would become a thing I’d have to lift each time I’m dusting the shelves. Fucking salt.

  That’s a heart breaking way to learn your lesson about backups. It must have taken a long time to accept.

  You’re getting stuck on my failure to read the summary because you thought this was an opportunity to make someone feel stupid online. That fact is that I did read it, and the article, however my brain disregarded the miniscule detail that we’re only talking about the friends part of Bumble because it has no influence on my overall takeaway. Stop being weird.

  Authenticity is no less important in platonic friendships.

  This doesn’t seem like an important distinction.

  It looks like you don’t have a personality yet. Would you like to use AI to generate one for you? Honestly, why are you even trying to date at that point?

  Here’s how it goes with half the games I mod these days.

  1. Game not manageable in Vortex out of the box 2. Find the extension that makes the game manageable 3. All popular mods are based on one single mod that acts as a framework or SDK for those other mods 4. That prerequisite mod isn’t well maintained on Nexus, and the author recommends using $otherModManager to manage this game

  Problem with VPFs is irrigation throttling, or lack thereof. Most people are cool, but I’ve heard of people hosting exotics which just max out downstream 24/7. Plus everyone has root access which gets abused frequently.

  Biology -> biolog -> biologist

  China -> chin -> chinist?
