Should just keep going and tear the whole thing down. Don’t think we need it anymore.

Correct.

Those in power overused the word and made it mean nothing.

Neoliberals are a part of that.

It’s from the 30s, actually.

Implies waking up to the systemic violence and oppression and beginning to do something about it.

Then it began being used as a bad thing because people were understanding systemic harm and those in power did not like it.

Overuse the word, make it mean nothing, remove its power, push the people back into oppression.

I could do so much with free gravel, you have no idea.

Outstanding article! Gosh, I love reading this kind of stuff. Thanks for sharing!

Of note, the second expansion, Stormblood, is now included in the free trial as well.

thanks! I’m keep an eye out for an android APK.

Do you have a link? When I search tapestry I find a proprietary app for a learning program

I just find it weird I’ve been on the wait-list for 7 months. Long enough for me to have completely forgotten I even signed up in the first place.

They’re certainly taking plenty of time.

I got tired of windows feeling like my only option. I knew there were alternatives out there so I went searching.

Mint and Kubuntu are both super easy to install and use and I’m glad to help my friends with installing a new OS whenever they ask.

I just went to download it and realized I needed an invite code because the beta is closed.

When I went to sign up for the wait-list, it turns out I’m already on it, since last DECEMBER!

So they either need to let more folks in real quick, or they cannot gain traction by word of mouth.

I think that’s actually the plan. There’s been moves to dismantle public education entirely, and once there is no more public education in Oklahoma, then the private schools can hire whoever they want.

To be able to see a person’s perspective when they tell me a story. Kinda like The Echo from FFXIV, but without the headache.

“The revolution will not be televised”

It’s a phrase I hear a lot in leftist spaces. Effectively, you have to be aware that publicizing these things is a great way to get them shut down.

The work is being done locally, and quietly. Advertising these events in public spaces like this one will very likely lead to them not getting off the ground due to infiltration or oppression

If a computer is a car, then Linux(the Kernal) is the chassis. Mint (the distro) is the motor, and Cinnamon (the desktop environment) is the fancy interior.

KDE plasma is a fancy interior that works with tons of different motors.

Cinnamon is designed for mint and works best with it.

DISCLAIMER: All of this is analogy and isn’t technically correct in a pedantic sense, but it works well enough for me. I’m sorry if my analogy isn’t exactly accurate.

Goddamn it… A Splatoon adventure game is the exact type of shit to finally make me want the new system.

I ain’t buying that shit at full price tho! You can’t make me!!!

Mine was also a ninja that used signs as weapons. He’d pull them out of the ground and use them like swords.

Signposts with reflectors on them had special powers depending on the reflector color.

Sapphic, perhaps.

Buy local, in cash.

Every card transaction benefits the big credit card companies, all of which are complicit. Local businesses are some of the ones hit hardest from all of this and will need your support.

Avoid chains owned by local folks, too. Those big chains still benefit even if it’s your neighbor that owns the local McDonalds.

Support things the government is trying to destroy, like your local library, and your local stores that sell LGBT positive merchandise.

Make friends with your neighbors. Grow things in your yard that they need and trade for stuff you need. Many folks that seem in agreement with all of this really aren’t if you know them. We are stronger together.

In regards to home gardens, Not everyone needs everything, but everyone needs something. If you can get chickens or some kind of egg laying fowl, then that’s a possibility as well. Guineas are fighters and do well in areas without a lot of brush or low trees.

Bike as much as you can. Avoid gas as much as you can. Ride the bus or a train. Don’t fly anywhere. Install solar panels if you are able. Capture rain water and use it for your garden.

Buy used as much as possible, especially clothes.

Replace your single use materials in your home with reusable ones. Rags instead of paper towels, glass containers instead of plastic ones, metal straws, and a water pick instead of floss.

Make things. Anything. Don’t monetize your hobbies, share them instead. Trade homemade goods and art for other stuff.

Avoid the dollar as much as possible, and use cash when you can’t.

Mint cuz I’m a newbie and it was recommended.

I tried KDE Neon Plasma a while too and it was doing a weird stuttery jitter thing with the mouse that I didn’t like so I switched back.

Mint just hasn’t had any huge frustrating problems or anything wrong with it that I couldn’t fix in the settings menu. Just how I like it.
