Hey Smorty!!! :D

Thank u for the nice comment, I been smiling lots each time I read it, but I struggle lots with making a reply (I do it to lots of my friends 2, bad habit but choosing words to say back can be scary :<)

I’m really happy tho that u like my posts n comments <3

I been going thru a lot, dealing with family health stuff no fun at all but I wanted to help and that sucked away my energy ;-; But I try 2 rest, just very slow recharge and work not helping- at least I with safe ppl so I’m ok

How is Smorty doing? ^^

I haven’t replaced a GPU on Linux, but my experience on windows has been to always uninstall and remove the graphics driver (forcing the Microsoft generic display driver) before replacing the GPU.

Then, it was just a matter of getting the drivers installed before I’m good to go. Granted, this was under Windows 10

Ahhh spicy is not the right word I realize , but i meant to compliment on ur writing style which is nice n refreshing :)

Also thank u! I’m happy in meeting u too! It is rare but nice meeting ppl on places like here where ppl can be nice~

I do like ur pfp (I saw that clippy went away)- that looks like a nice drawing 😊 But also, it could be neat to see a self drawn fluttershy :3

Also thank u Smorty! It is daytime and I’ll try my best to have a nice day :) I wish u a nice day or evening or nighttime too, ur amazing by being u!

Aw, dang! At least I’ll have good company with the FBI agents offline like I do online!

That’s it, pretty much. It’s a day and night difference with just a healthy family that is willing to work through dysfunction vs a family where dysfunction is the norm

Omg omg haiii Smorty!!! :D

Pinkie pie is my fav character so I made it my pfp 😊

I love coming across ur comments btw (esp the spicy ones 2), they kinda encourage me to try n make comments when I has the energy to do it too!!

Also, I’m so happy to hear u might wanna update ur pfp cuz of me! U totally can do it 100%!! I love seeing colourful ponies around and they make me happy when I see them so that’s sorta why I have pinkie pie here!! 🩷🩵🤍

That hits real hard, especially when I met my (now) fiancés family that turned out to prove that functional families exist outside of TV?!

…I have been hit with the three mental illnesses, and I am seeking help, but the time and cost go 😔

Oh god this is me, but now I get noticed in groups when I do make niche references and I haven’t planned for it to go that far

Funny enough, Fedora just works for me. The live CD convinced me enough to install and then it stopped recognizing the touchscreen and gyro components with my display.

Only after reinstalling on the fourth attempt did Fedora finally pick up my laptop display exactly like it did in the live USB.

Late to the party, but I feel this one particularly hard. At least as an adult now there’s some solace in being able to buy the things that I always wanted as a smol child but never got

That might be more of a circle than a venn diagram some days 😅

Yay! 😀

Aaa my app was weird and said I had no comments all day, despite seeing them all in my inbox 😭

I’m glad to see them all now though!

I really hope Liquid Glass stays. I much prefer it over the boring ass oversimplified design from before.

Now I want a blues clues blanket! >~<

Oh, so for a brief period it’s going to be useful before eventually sponsored and SEO slop results crowd the first page?

I’d still chase down ice cream trucks as an adult, I just want a tasty soft serve!

Yeah, that’s fair. I don’t really have family supports to fall back on and I just built up a small emergency fund for the first time so it’s not a serious consideration as much as it is nice to daydream about, especially since I feel like I’m able to also find routines and purpose for myself if not for my lack of independent wealth or support structure (beyond my partner that I wouldn’t want to just live off of)

The work-life balance has been a big struggle of going back and forth on getting to saner hours while also having a bunch of mental health stuff going on from not dealing with earlier in life and starting a job search since the company I’m at might fold. I know I’m not alone and I am in a privileged position having employment, but as someone that is easily overwhelmed and struggling mentally, the escape from responsibility is a nice thought in a vacuum.

I am starting the process of seeking help now that I can afford it, but it’s more “work” to do anyways.

I’m sorry for the wall of text, but yeah rationally it’s not wise to just not be employed, though it’s at least a nice daydream that’ll stay that way hopefully.

This feels so tempting to go down the widdle babygirl/puppygirl route since work is so stressful and exhausting, but at the same time it feels like it won’t be so fun after a little while because I like buying nice things sometimes >~<

Can relate. I’m the end of my bloodline as well- at least for my branch of the family.
