You're not broken, your different. So you don't have many of the same experiences we take for granted. If you look at it in the right light it might be a blessing. You have the opportunity to have brand new experiences in a time when you can understand them better without the cloud of childhood. I think there are hundreds of things I would almost kill for, to experience for the first time again.

Before you might not have had a choice. Now you do! Choose to do the things you love. If you don't know what that is, keep looking till you find it. Find the things that awaken your passion and follow that road where it leads. Branches in the road and the choices you'll make will open more of the world to with each passing day.

We are all fucked! We all have baggage we needlessly carry. We all try to hide that from each other. Your baggage is just different than mine.

What ever you do in this world remember to be kind to yourself, the world can be rough and you at least need yourself on your team.

Big hug young one!

Not entirely sure we ever had one.

Fucking pissed but unsupprised.

Yeah the primary is where we choose the candidate to represent us. Without a primary we are robbed of our choice of who gets to run. We only get a choice between two parties.

It would be like me and all my asshole friends choosing the candidate that's gonna line our pockets for you to vote for. You have this one shit sandwich and a shotgun. Easy choice at first.

We've had a shit sandwich and a shotgun as our choices for the last 50 years. This time there are live rounds and a fuckwit's itching to use it and we still chose a shotgun over the shit sandwich.

In the past we had the opportunity to choose the toppings on the shit sandwich provided to us giving the illusion of choice. Still ends up being a shit sandwich.

With so many Americans on the brink, pain, debt, legal drugs you can't afford, a healthcare system designed to rob you blind, low wages, corporations spying on your every movement with every device known, a failed educational system, destitute, and I could go on and on, we chose the shotgun.

I don't think gender or color is as big a barrier than who the person is. IMO Harris was a better choice than Clinton, still a piss poor choice, not even close to someone I would choose to vote for. If I had a choice that is. Pick a woman of any color that has the fight in her and the policies and fortitude to follow through on an actual populist agenda; I think she would succeed.

I think we've had enough of the "we hope we might be able to give you the change that you mandated but we're not really gonna try and if you point that out FUCK YOU!" candidate the dems always push on us.

Well we had a great primary to ensure the best most qualified.... You know, I think your right, I really didn't have a choice, the loosing candidate was cemented as my only choice. Democracy's a funny thing when it's not Democratic. From the get go it was like gift wrapping the largest military on the planet to Russia. Every one of those fucks in the DNC won't give two shits, they'll make money from donations for the next undetermined amount of time while what was left of our failed democracy is sold off to the highest bidder. At least now they don't have to worry about doing anything for the people the love to loathe.

Democrats are fucking clown shoes! I need a new party.

They even go as far as to have poisoned pill dems that are there to tank any change and take the blame. Joe Libreman, Olympia Snowe were likely not the first. Just the first time I saw that trick. I was dumbfounded when everyone let Manchin and Sinema rob that football like Lucy, again!

I remember when Biden was caught hot mic'ed saying "Nothing would fundamentally change" to a room full of rich donors during his first run. He already knew that he wasn't gonna do a fucking thing to help anyone but his donors.

Surprise pekachu all those who forgotten the first three card montie "find the single payer" trick during the Obama years.

The system is working exactly as designed. Repetitively even.

Steam allows you to ignore publishers.

  1. Go to the steam store page for publisher.

  2. Select the gear icon. Right of the "News" tab

  3. Select Ignore this creator.

At a medium pace.

My explanation above just gives the illusion of entire computer encryption.

Say you have a separate hd for each OS. Each with bootloaders on their drives. To bypass grub running luksopen you can boot directly into windows in the bios, in this instance the windows bootloader will be used to load windows. However if your bios is set to boot your Linux HD and grub has successfully found your windows drive and created a boot entry for it, it should be selectable after luks decryption. This can give the illusion that windows is encrypted while not really being so to an advanced user. There is nothing preventing you from mounting windows as its not really encrypted, just the way grub loads Luks before OS selecton. If I remember correctly systemd-boot loads OS selection before luksopen giving no appearance of encryption till after your OS selection, you should be able to boot windows without the false sense of drive decryption.
