Here's some completely unrelated crap

ArE yOU StILL prO GAY!!??

Yes? People should have the right to be gay

::: spoiler CW: SA The fact that some men rape and assault other people has nothing to do with anyone else being gay or not.

It would also be helpful for you to know that most pedophiles who attack boys (and probably the men doing the raping in prison) are actually straight. [1] Again, nothing to do with gay.

Wtf are you on lol

Anti-gay activists who make that claim allege that all men who molest male children should be seen as homosexual. But research by A. Nicholas Groth, a pioneer in the field of sexual abuse of children, shows that is not so. Groth found that there are two types of child molesters: fixated and regressive. The fixated child molester — the stereotypical pedophile — cannot be considered homosexual or heterosexual because "he often finds adults of either sex repulsive" and often molests children of both sexes. Regressive child molesters are generally attracted to other adults, but may "regress" to focusing on children when confronted with stressful situations. Groth found, as Herek notes, that the majority of regressed offenders were heterosexual in their adult relationships.

The Child Molestation Research & Prevention Institute notes that 90% of child molesters target children in their network of family and friends, and the majority are men married to women. Most child molesters, therefore, are not gay people lingering outside schools waiting to snatch children from the playground, as much religious-right rhetoric suggests. :::

They won't let me reproduce

I have a lot of questions but the answer to those questions is probably incel bs so I'm not gonna start haha

That sounds extremely fake.

Do you have anything to back up this fever dream?

We've gotten our 1yo eating more solid foods rather than purees and I've found an oats recipe that is generally liked. If they eat enough of it at dinner then we've gotten a sleep in until 5:30am without a 3am bottle. It's a slow process but now there's more solids I'm optimistic we'll be able to sleep through the night soon. They apparently eat a heap at daycare but they've been hesitant with solid foods with us, maybe we just need to go for the stuff with more flavor. Terrified about choking though so maybe it's more our hesitance.

Also walking with only one hand held for a while rather than holding up both hands.

Growing up really quickly every day.

This makes way too much sense, don't know how I didn't see it before!

I grew up and lost all respect for Nate over something really trivial that made me realize he was full of BS. He said imperial measurements are better because you could say you ran "4 miles", he said saying you ran 3.2km would just sound stupid so why would you want metric? Does he think people in countries that use metric are agonising over having to round distances (just like imperial would the majority of the time) or wish they could express it in miles? Does he always run in exact mile increments every single time? Rant over but it made me irrationally mad. He might have been joking but didn't care enough to find out.

Thanks for the recommendations! I was already kind of considering switching to Fedora so Bazzite sounds good, although CachyOS sounds interesting too.

I feel like I'm getting performance below what I've been getting on windows for the same games when I'm booting in Linux. Top of the head example is COD WWII, the gameplay and cutscenes stagger a lot but runs fine on windows with the same hardware. I've checked that my graphics card is being used by Linux but I just feel like I'm missing some settings that would optimise it.

I'm running Linux mint with a NVIDIA GTX1070. I know there's some issues with NVIDIA and Linux but would that be the full reason?

Ocean by John Butler is amazing

I'll probably think of some others and may update this as I think of them

Thanks!

Mint with GNOME

It just works and I like the look of it, never really like cinnamon for some reason

GrapheneOS often picks up security flaws in the android open source project and fixes them before google goes. I won't claim they fix everything but I've seen enough examples of things they fix over AOSP that make me doubt they wouldn't have fixed something like that (on top of keeping everything updated). Maybe you weren't referring to Graphene but still worth a shoutout for being a very (the most?) secure operating system.

NEDA (National Eating Disorders Association) fired a bunch of staff after they voted to unionize then tried to launch an AI chatbot to handle the talking instead. It went about as well as you'd expect.

I'm doing a python introduction course, I've made a hangman game and caeser cypher builder so far. It's just started getting into dictionaries so it would probably have something to do with that
