I don’t know what it’s like to be trans…
Because I’m not trans.

Just like I don’t know what it feels like to experience sexual attraction.

Doesn’t mean I deny it exists. It just means I listen to others and accept their reality.

I've made a detailed & thorough #HelpPost about our #WiFiConnectionIssue on the #LMDEForms. Hopefully a fix can be found. #WiFi #MacBookPro #LMDE7 #Linux

I'd installed b43-fwcutter_019-14_amd64.deb months ago on my mid 2009 13" #MacBookPro runing #LMDE7 to fetch my needed #Broadcom #WiFiDriver. It worked & I've been connecting it over #WiFi to our #BellAliantFibre via #TekSavvy #HomeInternet just fime. ... #Linux

I've always used the date format "day of week–month–day–year" but from now on I'll be using "day of week–day–month–year". I'm making this change as the vast majority of people on Earth, including now most Canadians, use this format plus it gives the most immediately relevant info 1st. #DMY

Our landlord had arranged for the birch & the bigger of the 2 maples in the yard to be removed today, but due to wet weather the #TreeRemoval has been rescheduled for tomorrow.

Here's the #banner I made called "I Use Linux Mint Debian Edition BTW". It's a play on the famous meme "I use Arch btw". It's intended to be used by individuals to share with others the fact that they use #LMDE. #Linux #GIMP #ComputerArt www.flickr.com/photos/lyric...
I Use Linux Mint Debian Edition BTW
A banner I made. It features the green and white version of the Linux Mint Logo which is, in addition to being used as the logo for the Ubuntu-based Linux Mint editions, used as the logo for LMDE (Lin...

Just installed the latest #SoftwareUpdate from #Samsung on my #SamsungGalaxyS21FE. It gave me #Android16 with the latest version of their #UI called #OneUI8. My Samsung Galaxy S21 FE isn't scheduled to receive anymore Android version updats, only security updates going forward.

I'm #relieved that my #stoma is now more round & that its circumference has shrunk to 29 mm. #ileostomy
November 20, 2025 at 11:22 PM
My #stoma #telescoped a bit today, but thankfully I was able to get it #unelescoped. Sadly though it's since gotten a bit hard & swollen necessitating a change to a new #OstomyBag that ended up needing to be held on by some strong #SkinTape. All this has left me feeling a wee #frustrated.

As we approach #RemembranceDay here in Nova Scotia on N0 11, I've changed my profile picture temperately to a photo of the #WhitePoppy which is an alternative to the more commonly known red poppy. The white poppy symbolizes #peace.

For quite some time I've hadda live with the fact that I best avoid the consumption of any food & drink that're any warmer than room temperature. This is cause they've been causing my poo to be runny & to run a lot.

Made a help post about my #GRUBMenu issue on the #LMDEForums. Got a #fix that'll render my GRUB menu in #ConsoleMode, still hoping for 1 that'll render it in #GUIMode. & if a simple fix can't be found for rendering it in GUI mode than I'm willing to call this solved. #LMDE7 #Linux #troubleshooting

Can we truly say we're better than the US when we have Premiers using the notwithstanding clause willy nilly to strip Canadians of their charter rights?

Being dependent on a medication because it works and treats/manages your symptoms, is absolutely not the same thing as an addiction.

This distinction is super important, and needs to be better understood by public and healthcare alike.

The only thing I've left to fix in my install of #LMDE7 on my mid 2009 13" #MapcBookPro is the #GRUBMenu not loading during #booting. The next step for me is to make a help post on the #LMDE section of the #LinuxMintForum & see what advice fellow LMDE 7 users can give me. #Linux #troubleshooting
