It's weird going back after 16+ years of watching NCIS to see who played thackery binx. Didn't know him when we watched it at time of release, so it was a huge surprise when we re-watched it to prepare for the sequel.

As long the player is open to whatever the DM decides their characters history is, or they have collaborated on an outline or even a detailed history the other players just don't know about, that is all fine and can be really fun for everyone.
If they are doing it with no heads up and are not going to play along with whatever the DM decides happened in their past, then no. But when it comes to DnD, I normally let stuff play out and only stop play if something is clearly going poorly, or might make other players more uncomfortable than they are willing to be. I only play with friends, so things rarely end up being anything close to the worst they theoretically could have gone, socially.
I will say, this is probably gonna go down as the "most visible" visibility day, due to the coincidence.
My apologies, I took your post as though you were being serious. Wanted to explain that you shouldn't feel bad and why.
Social media effect, the odds are not in your favour. Comparing your random pictures to the best pictures of thousands of other people combined into one entity.
Mathematically, you shouldn't be able to randomly happen accross even one picture that compares, let alone is better than any one of the top rated posts on a social media site.
Having said that, pictures of a cat you care about automatically get bonus points to you and you'll like your pictures way more than what are effectively the equivalent of super model cats you don't have any investment in.
Right? I was gonna look it up to make sure that name is the one I was thinking of.
For others maybe not familiar, if you have ever heard the phrase "they drank the kool-aid" a cult leader also named Jim Jones ran a cult informally called JonesTown. If you have a strong stomach and a curiosity about how cult "life" can be, there is a pretty detailed Wikipedia article on it. Spoiler alert, the ending of the story is one of the worst parts. And also how we can be certain this is a different Jim Jones.
And also it was "flavor-aid", but details don't always make it into the memes.
Sounds like a possibility for a really creative story moment. Maybe the comic book that character always carries around with them just so happened to use the same runes as their "secret language" and the author of that comic is some super nerd for that specific language.
