Fictive resistant system?

I've never really heard any other systems talking about this, but to our knowledge we have only ever had one fictive ever, the source was deliberately focused on and studied prior to forming as a fictive, was only active for a few months, and never fronted. Its just not something that really occurs in our system. Are there a lot of systems out there that just don't typically form fictives, or really introjects in general? My gatekeeper is sort of an introject, based in someone fron early childhood that we arent sure was ever real and changed from the source over the decades, aging with us and independently becoming their own identity, but that's about it for introjects really.

Looking for the closest affordable fragrance to Zoologist's Tyrannosaurus Rex

I haven't had the opportunity to smell T Rex on my husband in a couple years when we got a bunch if samples on some holiday deal, and that one just really did it for me, but its way out of my budget to get any more than a sample. I'd love to get something as similar as possible.

Dark trance producers that are NOT psy

Hi! I've been looking for some dark and dirty acid-y sounding trance producers that aren't psytrance, looking for a sound more similar to Anne Clark's Our Darkness for example. I had been listening to a lot of stuff lately like Latex Fruit and Purity Filter, and the type of sound that influences those artists I think is in the wheelhouse I'm looking for.

Thanks! :)

neophyte intimidated by part swapping, advice?

Hi! Ecstatic novice rider here with a bit of a ramble:

I got this secondhand magna echo ridge for like 60 bucks and its been a huge lifesaver since I've been bereaved of the family heirloom pickup. Riding this the seven miles to work even a couple times out of necessity has captured my heart. I had not rode a bike for about 20 years before I got this and it's just makes me feel so young again! I reset the rear derailleur, aired up the tires and it has become my daily driver, I immediately became enamored with bike commuting since the first time I did it.

Thing is though, my commute is entirely paved, even the trails I take, and this is a hardtail mountain bike. I don't know if its even worth it to turn into *The Bike of Theseus* with part swaps, but converting it into more of a street bike sounds appealing as I've already bonded with this one, and the saddle is goddawful not even the padded cover does enough for me not to want to inevitably replace that first.

How big of a pain in the ass would it be to just install some drop bars at bare minimum? Could I reuse the brakes and just reconnect the cables to drop bar brake levers, or would it be a whole overhaul? I don't know much about gear shifters and changing those either. I'm also curious if that would necessite a different stem. What I would want to work towards is making this bike more ergonomical for a mostly flat and paved commute and try and shave some extra time and effort off the trip with better biomechanics.

Is anyone else having issues today with artist radios being full of completely random unrelated artists/songs

Was listening to an artist radio earlier today then came back to it a couple hours later and all the tracks changed to a bunch of completely random ones that had no similarity to the artist I was listening to, and it seems now to be the case with every artist radio I've looked at since this happened. For example I was listening to a german rap artist's radio and it went from being a bunch of similar artists to random stuff like K-Drama soundtracks, old samba music, funk, midwest emo, etc, just all over the place
