I do not believe in the supernatural, magic, ghosts or anything like that. However, I can be very superstitious about tempting fate and won’t make jokes or flippant remarks that could be interpretted as such.

For example, my partner made a dark joke about how she’d rather have cancer than such and such. I begged her not to say such things, not because the thought of her having cancer upset me (although it did), but because it feels as if saying stuff like that could make it happen.

    I feel you. I haven’t started either and for years there was no name I felt connected to because they would elicit a negative rmotion or was connected to a person. Eventually one just sounded right to me and I started using it, and one day it was my name.

    I love your handle lol

      Thanks for sharing! That’s so beautiful! 😍🩵

      Yeah, I played around with various handles but, alas, none of them felt quite right. 😂 So I decided to pass whatever name I feel like at the moment as an argument to printf(). 🤪 Easy peazy lemon squeezy 🤣Sorry, I’m sleepy and I’m projecting Sunday night’s anxiousness 🫣 I don’t wanna go to woooooorkkk. 🤫 Aight, have a lovely day! 🫡
