I spelt ‘sphynx’ (sphinx) wrong, it’s saved that way in my phone for some reason and I wasn’t paying attention.

Edit: Ah, yep just saw that comment with the cats. It’s because of cats.

There is a “y” in “my” so maybe “Sphinx” would complete the sentence?

The fuck happened with that one. Its literally the same word, this isnt an aluminum vs aliminium situation where the namer was a fuck up and called it both so people flipped a coin. Fucking English spelling is ratfucked.
