  • The "everything reminds me of him/her" meme refers to some ex relationship.

    Another meaning for "gaslighter" is someone who manipulates you and makes you feel like you're crazy.

    So they're saying this lighter reminds them of their mentally abusive ex. Which is really more sad than funny the more I explain it.

  • I switched to Linux Mint a couple months ago and use Steam a lot. I've tried at least 10 games and all worked perfectly.

    But I don't do competitive multiplayer. Those are more likely to have issues with anti-cheats. Although I did try Hell Let Loose and Helldivers very successfully and those are both major online titles.

    Check https://protondb.com if you're worried about a specific game's compatibility. I've had silver rated games work perfectly though.

    Edit: Apps - Photo editing and 3D CAD are the main areas I've struggled with on Linux. There's no good Adobe equivalent, and no good Fusion 360 equivalent. Free CAD exists, but that can gently fuck off.

  • I think the woman with water poured on her is white and sitting with the black woman.

    My understanding of the two sides were the white people attacking them and the white people sitting with a black person to protest segregation.

  • Yeah, those questions are the only the only way I stay sane. I've never been asked to participate in a poll so I have to assume the demographics are biased toward specific groups, like people who answer land line phones.

  • Do polls make anyone else unreasonably angry?

    Unless it's 20 points, I can't fathom how that many people support Trump. He never says anything of value in any speech. There's no platform to support. He just needs power to avoid criminal consequences, and half the country is good with that.

  • That's true, but it became clear that others would experience similar emotions.

    Also according to the Wikipedia, the author regretted writing them in a way that suggested they're a linear progression of steps. I've only actually heard the steps used as a sitcom plot point (Monk, Scrubs).

  • Bailey, who was appointed attorney general ... has a history of opposing overturning convictions, even when local prosecutors cite evidence of actual innocence.

    In 2023, Bailey’s office argued against then-St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner’s effort to overturn the murder conviction of Lamar Johnson, who was imprisoned 28 years. A St. Louis judge sided with Johnson, who was freed.

    Bailey’s office also argued in court in May against freeing Christopher Dunn, who has spent 33 years in prison for a 1990 killing that St. Louis Circuit Attorney Gabe Gore determined that Dunn probably didn’t commit. A judge is still deciding that case.

    And Bailey is opposing St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell’s effort to set aside the murder conviction of Marcellus Williams. A hearing is Aug. 21 — just a month before Williams is scheduled to be executed. Testing unavailable at the time of the 1998 stabbing death found another person’s DNA on the knife, but not Williams’.

    I would love to hear his justification for all of these. Is it just the for-profit prison money, or the pride of not being wrong?
