As with so many things American, something does not look right about "Minnie Pearl"
Lady looks like a dude to me...
It's always difficult to be 100% certain, but this pattern plays out again and again...They could easily be men in drag. Very easily...
When I’m upvoting stuff online, here are 11 things I’m always on the lookout for:
We may all be just be cogs in the machine, but at least we can be colourful cogs
“Cogs.23” by fROt – spraypaint on canvas with digital editing
Wherever we may be, funny as fuck is just around the corner
Our history books are full of shit, so let’s start flinging some shit right back at the fuckers trying to spoon feed us lie upon lie (and that includes ALL politicians, every last one of of the worthless lying maggots)
There’s nothing quite like gawking at some photos – a gateway to other worlds
But keep in mind “they” are playing both sides – basic tactics 101
In the digital age we can all be artists – let's make some shapes
“Naked In A Field” by fROt – Crayon on paper with digital editing
There is an entire world out there – get off your fucking phones and fill it with colour
If the end is nigh, and we are all fucked, and we are going to end our days beaten into submission – we can still have some fun before we shrivel up and die…
Less words, more pictures – stop trying to bore each other’s pants off with endless tossfest word salads
One of the fastest way to transmit ideas in an age of information overload is with memes
You know – the opposite of boring shit…

In this post I'll be referring to "GEEKS" quite a bit. This is not entirely disrespectful, I do appreciate all the work geeks put in, creating open source software.
But like so many people who have transitioned from Windows to Linux I have come to view geeks as a bizarre sub-species of computer users who take a perverse pleasure in exerting their superiority over NEWBS (I was a newb too)
Possibly some computer geeks place a value on themselves that partly stems from being the only ones who understand the technology, so making them gatekeeper tech gods. Which they get a buzz out of.
Unfortunately this tends to mean that rather than making things easier for newbs by giving them simple instructions, they often give out incomprehensible instructions like "Just enter this simple command in Terminal". Their condescending tone of "this is all really easy" is infuriating and one of the main reasons so many newbs give up.
Geeks seem to be unwilling to accept that about 90% of people using computers are not other geeks, but regular people who want to have most, or even everything they do accessible through buttons and menus that they can click on.
Personally
I like to do everything on my PC using my mouse, and am about as anti
keyboard command as it's possible to be. The very word "type" totally
turns me off. "Copy & paste" I can do when necessary, but not "type"
What I actually want to see are the words "click on".
Life often plays out in strange ways, and I have brain damage to the left hemisphere of my brain, so am very right brain dominant, but I still use computers anyway, and even sometimes seem to end up trying to explain computer stuff to other non-geeks who just want some basic instructions.
My perspective from being a right brain computer user is a bit different to most of the people who are usually commentating on this stuff, so I imagine any actual geeks who see my posts might view me as a clueless idiot. Which I sort of am.
During
the process of transitioning from Windows 7 (Yes, I was still using Win
7 up until 2024) to Linux Mint, it struck me that a lot of the
information online is confusing rather than helpful, and I wish I could
have read (Yes READ, not viewed endless badly done videos) web-pages
that explained things in a way that made sense to me.
Now I want to leave some notes for my friends who at some point will be wanting to escape the clutches of Microsoft. Windows 11 is likely to be the final straw for a lot of people with it's obvious and intrusive spyware, so the end of Windows for non sheeple is looming close on the horizon.
Linux is the only real option for anyone who wants to continue using a computer without selling their soul to the deep state. (Yes, Apple & Google are spying too)
As I've found from sticking with Windows 7 and refusing to use Windows 8 or Windows 10, it is possible to soldier on for years with an unsupported operating system.
But installing Windows 7 on more modern hardware is a pig of a job, mainly because sorting out drivers can be really tricky, and there are ever increasing problems with software no longer working properly.
Linux is the future and I think everyone who wants to use a computer with some degree of privacy is going to have to get the hang of it. So that's why I do a few Linux posts attempting to clarify things.
Ever wondered why vapes are so popular?
It's winter - time to harden up and get outside!
The girls don't sing. They just wave. 😂
Back in 1938 when men were men.
I love it when normies say "show me the studies" 😂
