#number facts

Four and vier (four in German, pronounced “fear” but more German) are both 4 letters long. Cinqo (five in Spanish, pronounced “sink-o” but more Spanish) is 5 letters long.

However, four is the only English number which, when spelt out, is the same length as its numerical value. This, however, makes it nicely unique in terms of English names for numbers.

Fifty has 5 letters and seventy has 7 letters. This fact is nice. Therefore fifty-four and seventy-four have letter-counts of 5-4 and 7-4. Thirty-six and forty-five have reversed pairings; their counts are 6-3 and 5-4 respectively. Both of these sum to 9, and the numbers they represent are both multiples of 9, even if reversed.

Forty has its letters in alphabetical order. One (and also first) has its in reverse. These are the only English integers to do so. (Non-integers, such as pi and e, do not count toward this.)

Eighty-eight and thirty-three both are divisible by 11, and 11 letters long.

Eleven plus two = Twelve plus one, both mathematically and anagramatically (they have all the same letters.)

I have many many more nice number facts; perhaps I should start a series of information posts about them. Many of these I retrieved from this site.

its absurd that trio is four letters long and not three

Had a dream where Welcome Home wasn't a horror project, but a therapy clinic, and Wally was their (main) mascot. It was apparently so prevalent that this ominous ass poster was literally everywhere. At one point I went down an alley with both walls lined with nothing BUT this. It was terrifying.

It is strange to think something so intrinsic to humans may be so detrimental to another.

spent like an hour trying to find a post abt the disparity of origin companion's content in bg3 and couldn't so, hey, this fucking sucks

[dead-sp1der]

I was inspired by @temporaltemporary's Bdubs chart and decided to add data of Joel as well

Interesting things to note:

Because the length of episodes were so different not only between Joel and Bdubs but also between their own episodes, I decided to use percentages

Joel does not (afaik) mention Etho in his episode 2 and 5, so I put those percentages at 100%

Both Bdubs and Joel mention Etho within the first minute in both their episode 7

I know Joel is up to episode 11 now, but this is about the difference between the two, so I'm currently only going to use the episodes both of them have released
