Fun how? Like patterns and such, or something more like toe socks or thigh highs?

Good. I have most of that. Just missing the vest.

Just a wizard hat? That could be hot in the right context.

I could use a bath 😘

That's perfectly fine. I didn't assume OP was shitty. I was pointing out the "females" thing because he would get a better response by using words that made women feel more comfortable.

This post was the first to be made. I think the other was made to get a rise out of "snowflakes" or whatever.

The thing is that this post isn't even shitty. The question is both fine and valid, and the OP hasn't done anything terrible either. I just like pointing out things to improve communication.

Additionally, the use of context would have told you that I was pointing out a well known red flag to benefit OPs conversations with women.

And for informational purposes, an article detailing why using "female" as a noun is a problem: https://www.jezebel.com/the-problem-with-calling-women-females-1683808274

I generally find that a gentle reminder helps people who are not a problem, and quickly reveals those that are the problem.

Are they sealed for freshness?

I suggest not referring to women as "females". Many find that to be de-humanizing.

The question itself is fine.

It's fine. I have a web server. I just didn't want to run a separate server just to run Ghost on Node.

Oh, I'll definitely be writing the templates by hand. I have a preference for hand written CSS.
