My first real linux distribution was Mandrake 6, which I bought in a retail box at Walmart, and had KDE 1.1.

I 100% agree. It should be the standard at this point.

People in my area were wigging out that the Arby's now has gender-neutral bathrooms. Like, how is that a bad thing. They are locking single seaters.

Happy Columbo’s Day

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we remember the horrific genocide that founded the so-called United States and the continued settler colonialism on Turtle Island.

From Palestine to Turtle Island, we stand with Indigenous peoples resisting colonialism and oppression.

I need to get some paintings done so I can hopefully cover J’s root canal & some other time-critical bills.

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

Excellent choice as well. I also firmly believe that Cherry RC is the best cherry cola on the market.

John Macabre @attackofhubris.net · 1d

RC is legitimately my favorite Cola. I love it.

My children both have some tastes that I deem questionable (ugh Imagine Dragons), but my 12-year-old son's three favorite bands are Green Day, Bad Religion and ALL/Descendents. I was all in on grunge and thrash metal at his age, so I can't complain.
