I have one bio parent I can do that with, and I know I’m privileged to have that. To be able to confide, ask questions, seek advice, break down, or even just play cards together provides a certain level of mental safety I didn’t experience otherwise.

I only hope I can provide even a fraction of that to others; everybody deserves safe people.

McCarthyism, Southern Strategy, three letter agencies spending decades actively targeting/murdering activists; yeah it’s been rough.

Theoretically you can spin up a used thinkpad from a yard sale and run steam. Nintendo doesn’t (legally) run on anything that’s not Nintendo branded ¯_(ツ)_/¯

For me personally, anything times 5 can be reached by halving the number, then multiplying that number by 10.

Example: 66 x 5 = Y

• (66/2) x (5x2) = Y

  • cancel out the division by creating equal multiplication in the other number

  • 66/2 = 33

  • 5x2 = 10

• 33 x 10 = Y

• 33 x 10 = 330

• Y = 330

I’m going to hold onto the spark of your optimism until I can light my own; your perspective does help and I hadn’t considered it. Thank you /gen /pos

One can only hope, but knowing how fucking stupid my right-wing, sycophantic, fellow countrymen are I doubt much will change.

Pretty sure everyone who voted against him already hates him though.

Butt cleavage maybe? Undercheek?
