If everyone stopped believing in religion (any and all religions), all these religious leaders would lose their power.

Project yourself 20 years into the future. Imagine yourself saying this to present day you. Then act on that advice. Much of these suggestions can apply to anyone at almost any age.

That’s a crazy thing for him to say. The election isn’t just his own little personal competition.

Christian Nationalism at work again.

You don’t need divorce if you never get married. 👍

The ending of SOMA. I sometimes watch it on youtube just to enjoy it again. Note: the ending won’t mean anything to you if you don’t already know the story.

I hope The Freedom From Religion Foundation gets involved with this in a big way.

OpeNoise is one… it will need calibration but if you weren’t concerned about actual dB readings you could use it uncalibrated

I’ve heard YouTubers say they aren’t making as much from their regular videos and that YouTube is pushing shorts. So the Youtubers have started to focus on shorts. I don’t like short so I don’t watch them.

Lobbying and lobbyist groups.

For me it was magic. I love watching magicians. When I got a chance to do some magic tricks it just wasn’t as much fun as watching someone else do them.

Not specific advice, but make sure all the programs you use are available and where/how you will get them.

The people that want a theocracy want it based on their religion and their interpretation of that religion. This way they can present what they want as what god wants and that gives them complete control over you since you have to obey god.

Remember when MTV first started and didnt have adds and only player music vidsos?

Any time they talk about not looking back but looking forward ““We’ve got to leave the negativity and the baggage behind”, it means -I’ll forgive them for what they did in hopes the people that come after me will forgive me in the same way.

Where in KDE are those settings? I see Flatpak permissions listed in Discover (bottom of right panel,) but you can’t change them there. Not sure where else to look. I’ve been using Flatseal but if it isn’t needed …
