I always thought it was kinda funny when people would censor themselves online by saying "God dang", because I'd genuinely rather they say "Gosh damn".
Side note, sometimes I wonder about using substitute words like gosh, golly, or jeez--they're all just slight alterations of the original blasphemy, so is it really any better?

Looking in the mirror: Lookin' good, handsome.
Seeing a photo of myself: an abomination. who let this happen

I think a lot of the reason we hate this is due to every human being at least slightly asymmetrical. When you see yourself in the mirror, you're reflected, and that's what your brain has latched on to as "what I look like." But in pictures, you're not reversed, and you get an Uncanny Valley effect from your own face.
I've seen this same issue in Zoom and Discord video calls where for whatever reason, your own image doesn't start out mirrored. It's DISTURBING until you can flip it back to "correct."

Took my sister to see Owl City last night as an early birthday present! My friends, the vibes were immaculate.

FanX has started today in SLC, which means that the train was full of nerds, many of whom were in costume. It was amazing and now I'm consumed with regret for not going.
