I know many people hate the word "moist," but I get similarly visceral reaction to "growth."

For what it's worth, I loathe them both.
64% moist
35% growth

@monsieuricon the way i see it, growth is mostly these days just associated, in my brain, to growth for the sake of growth, to make numbers bigger, which is fundamentally more concerning than smth just being moist

@monsieuricon
my reaction to "moist" is instinctual, embedded in wetware
my reaction to "growth" is intellectual, full of thought and association
you're essentially asking me to pick between an uncomfortable texture to touch and manmade horrors entirely within my comprehension
I know what my choice is
