Can't go wrong with Linux Mint

I've had second thoughts about posts I've made in the past (usually because they proved to be unpopular with the majority), and have deleted my post. Why sit there and rack up downvotes for no reason? Now if a post I've made was unpopular, but it generated fair and good-faith discussion, I'll keep it up.

I'd have an open and respectful discussion with them, asking the following questions: Are they safe? Are they in full control of the money they earn? Is this their own decision? Are they happy? If they answer positively to all of these questions, then I wouldn't have anything more to say. It's their body and their life, not mine.

Second this. I don't really listen to a lot of mainstream stuff, so Bandcamp is really awesome for finding really great indie stuff.

Heheh....a very wise man once told me that 'every truth begins as a heresy'. In the 30+ years since I was told this, I have found it to be completely accurate. :)

I think it's okay as long as it is a temporary thing. I would definitely look into a quality therapist who can address any underlying issues.

I honestly prefer Lemmy over Mastodon. My experience with Mastodon has been one of screaming into the void with very little actual engagement with anyone. Also, it just seems like everyone is trying to sell their product or advertise their blog. It probably depends on which tags one chooses to follow, but I grew tired of it very quickly. I haven't had the same experience with Lemmy for whatever reason, which is why I prefer it.

As has been mentioned before - Howard Zinn. His 'A People's History of the United States' is jaw-dropping. This book literally changed my life.

Right, so leaving jobs off your resume is probably not a good idea. Year-long gaps in your employment history will get you passed on, as well.

So if you're keeping off any jobs that you've worked at for less than 2 years, does that mean you lie about dates to cover up the gaps?
