In terms of games and programs, it's best to look for/ask about the specific ones. Things have improved a ton with Steam/Proton, but just make sure there isn't a deal breaker in there somewhere. Otherwise, there's great distros out there that are EZPZ for normal everyday computer tasks (web surfing, file browsing, office shit).
I live here, and I actually called the Sheriff and yelled at her about this. She said these ICE Nazis showed her deputies ID and warrants, and that she couldn't stop them from entering. She has met with the judges who actually have the power to determine who is allowed entry, asking if they want her office to stop feds in the future. They were still considering it as of yesterday.
We'll see. Ending qualified immunity means they can be charged, but doesn't mean that they will be charged. It's a step in the right direction, but the system will continue fighting to protect its own.
Nah. I just won't help bomb civilians at all. I can't always control whether others help bomb civilians, but I can always control whether I help bomb civilians. Civilian deaths are 99% intentional. They are decided before the bomb is deployed. You will make the bombs knowing they will be used immorally.
Nothing says you have to believe the same thing everyday, or even moment to moment. Think of your spirituality as kind of story, or a painting, or a song that you sing to yourself. Wouldn't it be boring to sing the same song every day? There isn't just one "greatest" song/poem/story/painting because you can't fit all human experience or emotion into just one of them. I like to treat spirituality this way. Play with your relationship to life's mysteries. Make an art of it to entertain and comfort yourself.
To be clear, I have some core values that I don't change, and these inform my politics and how I interact with other people. When it comes to things like death, "the meaning of life", the origins of the universe etc, I'm most comfortable with fluidity.
I know what Israel is doing, and I know there will be consequences. Fuck you, for saying you'll kick back and "sip tea" while random Jews reap "karma". You're doing Israel's work for them. I spit on Israel, and I spit on you.
I've been voting against fascism since '96 and I keep being told to vote for the lesser of two fascisms instead.
