Good news and bad news
Another win on FTL, again with the Carnelian/Crystal B. I actually spent money at stores rather than waiting around for good augments/weapons to fall into my lap, to get Stealth Weapons and the Chain Vulcan (!) Usually the Crystal B is a good boarding ship, but against the Flagship you need other weapons too, so that paid off!
I'm on a team that edits/workshops various silly RPG prompts to add into our webgame. Usually for each event/juncture, there's one teammate who does the main editing and the rest of us make suggestions. So user A was working on a submission from outside contributor Z.
B: I think you need the word "the" in this sentence.
A: No, I think it's good as it is.
Me: I agree with user B, the more general grammar rules are blah blah blah, or if you phrased it this way instead...
A (privately to me): don't be patronizing, I've been doing this for longer than you.
And like...would "no, I think B is correct" with no further justification have been better? I feel like no. But I also feel like I'm under more pressure to be like "this is why I think this phrasing is better." Is this an impostor syndrome thing? Are women more likely than men to be either tentative or over-scrupulous?
