You will be assimilated, resistance is futile. Your technology will be added to our own. Embrace the inevitable.

honestly, I like your perspective better, its way less depressing than how I normally view people. Its still sad to know that people dont praise eachother or themselves enough. but at least from your viewpoint the people I deemed weirdos are not the monsters I percieve. It gives everyone room to grow, Where as im generally more interested in myself. Praising others, Is definitely something I should work on.

I feel bad now, but when I see people practicing basic decency I generally see it as “the bare minimum”, When obviously thats not the case. Your perspective is very much appreciated, Thank you!

but for most tend to exaggerate enormously what other think of ourselves and the truth is, no one cares much.

This is true, but for most people with S.A.D. they were frequently exposed to people who DO care. Family for example constantly commenting on your looks and demenor can have a lasting impact on someone. I was lucky enough to become more rebelious and anti-conformist. but some like my SO, are constantly worried about what others think because its so engrained in them that the people around them are making snide comments to them or behind their backs.

For me, and what im trying to get her to understand. Is that “indifference” is paramount. Its a difficult thing to do but becoming indifferent to the opinions of others is way more powerful than attempting to believe something that isnt always true (that noone cares much). Truth is we are constantly surrounded by wierdos who take a single look at another person and make 1000 judgements.

I find it to be a way more powerful tool to just think about how sad they are, how lonely they must feel, how every foul word is likely a projection of their own lack of self worth. Shrug my shoulders and walk away. Sadly children are not given the opportunity to “walk away”. Especially in the case of parents and family.

My home feed is “all”, sorted by “hot”(weird i know but its a good way to find communities to sub to). I dont usually see nsfw, but I have seen some trans memes, sfw yuri and a instance dedicated to middrift which is kind of nsfw but has no parts showing. If i dont like what im seeing i just block the instance. But it hasnt happened alot. Mostly just news articles and current events though.

Honestly that would go hard. The ending is a boss fight against baphomet where you climb him shadow of collosus style to give him pets.

Maybe all goat variants?

The shift in public perception on weapon ownership when they see actual tyrany in america is very interesting. Ive been 100% pro gun and have gotten so much backlash from family and friends for being so. I dont even own a gun and to me it has been obvious that the government and media were using mass shootings (not actually commiting them as far as we know) to disarm the people.

There are and have always been such a large number of safe, moral, and sane gun owners in this country. Normal people who target practice, hunt, shoot competatively, design guns, modify them, defend their homes, study weapon history, or even just put them on display. It baffles me that anyone could be so against normal hard working americans doing no harm whatsoever.

Not a single person I spoke with was ever against owning a car when I brought it up. I was always given the same “its not the same thing”. The common denominators in vehicular violence and gun violence are mental health, education, and financial status. I dont want to compare numbers on how many people are killed in either situation because it does not matter. Human lives are lost everyday needlessly to both of these. But only guns get talked about.

Curious to know if you or anyone else have recently become pro gun, or have you always felt this way?

Its so accurate… I hate it.

This is generally how i get a healthy dose of fiber in my diet

Cutting burger with a skill saw

sorry for the yt short couldnt find the original

I also enjoy black licorice but, I also enjoy lemons jalapenos and sawdust on occasion. So i might just be an anomoly.

My headcannon was always that they were action figures. The episode where they all go on the surface shows all of the characters as puppets

so in my head all of the characters are real items that are being animated by some sort of undersea magic.

I used the plasma-meta package and to be sure I just now used arch-chroot on a flashdrive and removed plasma entirely. Cleared pacman with -Scc and then reinstalled plasma-meta and all its dependencies.

Also breeze-gtk and oxygen-gtk were the only themes in the long list of dependencies. Maybe they removed them to shorten install times and shrink the size of the DE install?

Youre comment is greatly appreciated. it also gave me an idea. Im next going to install downgrade and check if the dependencies change to add more themes in a previous version.

I could also be crazy and manually installed a bunch of themes one night. but i barely put any work into the look and feel of the DE so im almost 99% sure this is not the case

Update this did not work downgrading breaks dependencies and will not let me since force was depreciated…

So in essence you are going to teach your child to be a free thinker, which is an ideology. When another child aproaches your child with the classic “do you believe in jesus?” Your child will say “who?” Hear out the other and make a decision in that moment.

If you had set up your child to be unconvinced of claims without facts. Youve groomed an athiest. Its not directly intentional but you 100% groomed your kid into a particular manner of thinking.

Everyone does this its unavoidable. Even if you never spoke a word to your child. Theyd pick up your mannerisms and beliefs by simple mirrorism.

Obviously grooming has negative connotations which is what i assume you take issue with. but the word can be and has been used innocuously such as this example from dictionary.com

DuBois and Dickerson weren’t necessarily groomed for this job, a change from how evening anchors were selected in the past. — Brian Steinberg, Variety, 2 Apr. 2025

Using a pan and a propane grill are vastly different imo. I dont dislike charcoal or wood. I think each has thier own place depending on the meal you are preparing. For example I like to make steak and chicken kabobs on a propane grill and burgers and hotdogs on a charcoal.

At the end of the day though seasoning and meat quality take center stage. So its all about what you have access to and can afford.

After some tests with many different keyboards from f-droid, not a single one of the roughly 12 I tested were able to send capital letters. My workaround would be use a keyboard that allows for custom keys and add shift or a capslock input to the keyboard.

I tried “unexpected keyboard” which had the option to do this but i cannot for the life of me figgure out how to actually press capslock when its added to the keyboard its set to the letter A but its not useable through normal means i must have to hold it or something and i cannot figgure it out.

My other solution is to buy one of these

Its a dinky wireless keyboard with a left click on the top left making it holdable like a game controller and all mouse inputs are useable with only thumbs. Its great for using a keyboard from a bed or couch.

Best of luck

I use fossify, im going to test this on my device later after work and see if i can reproduce any issues you are experiencing. Any specifics would help. (just want to see if the problem is limited to you)

Taste the meat not the heat.

Fisticuffs, pugilism, the manly art of self-defence. Come on. Isn’t this all wonderfully barbaric? Go on, take a poke at me. I know that’s really what you want to do. Come on.

All things considered I think they did a pretty good job. He reminded me alot of someone I went to elementary with. They were insanely smart, for example he could recite the entire periodic table at 10 years old from memory, Atomic mass and everything. They were bullied relentlessly by everyone. I havent seen them in years but i could totally imagine he grew up to be similar to Jack.

And they hated jesus for he spoke the truth.
