"Romantic love" is a catch-all term for positive sentiments towards an object that go above a certain threshold of normality. As such, it is multiple and badly defined. "Love" is language saying "I don't know, you figure it out!".

 

Noirvember is an annual celebration of film-noir.

I wrote this some time ago. It is rather personal, but maybe some readers will find this useful.

 

I haven't written a movie review in ages! I am currently watching a bunch of film noir, finally filling that gap. These are my impressions of Touch of Evil, a highly regarded film noir by the director of Citizen Kane. I am ambivalent about it, as will become clear in the article.

I'm 42, dude. Limited mental energy. I would gladly be part of your server, though ;)

That is way over my head as I am genuinely a non technical user. I tried many times to have a statistic page and every time I failed. It may be hard to believe but some things that are trivial for hackers are not trivial for most people. For years, my domain name was going to waste. So my choice was between having a webpage on someone's server or none at all. If a professional programmer wish to dedicate their very valuable time to make a static page for me for free, I'm all ears :) Until then, Bear Blog seems rather reasonable.

I would never self host anything myself, as I don't know how. But there's a response to that question on the project's GitHub: https://github.com/HermanMartinus/bearblog/?tab=readme-ov-file#can-bear-blog-be-self-hosted

 

"Will Ferrell and his close friend, former head writer at SNL, Harper Steele embark on a cross-country road trip together after Harper comes out as a trans woman. Watch Will & Harper on September 27 on Netflix." (from the YouTube description)

That was a a fairly short article reporting on another article. The title gives the impression that the assertion was made with certainty when the actual quote makes it clear that this was meant as speculation, a calculated guess made on a conversation that was not meant to be public. I truly have no inclination to defend corporate leadership, but perhaps it would be more productive to direct our sentiments towards the article that is being quoted instead.
