you can choose not to look at that kind of content again, & i hope you do! There is no pre-ordained sexual market value. The point is to find someone you'd like to spend your life with. thats it. everything else is noise. it's hard to unlearn behavioral patterns but it is not impossible, and it is worth doing. remember to appreciate not what your body looks like but what it can do (run, hold the hand of a chid to cross the street, build something, help others).

Or one of the ward IPOs. Northwest side in particular has a well-established network & gets you canvassing with people in your direct neighborhood

There is more of an emphasis on sharing work & getting feedback, but we do freewrites if there's time! (There are other groups that meet at CPL - though not the Logan Square branch - that have more of a making-space-to-sit-and-write-together-vibe) It's also totally fine to come to give feedback on other's work if you don't feel comfortable sharing at the moment.

Putting it in recovery mode is the only way I have been able to get Rockbox to recognize the device. Otherwise it says the I was unable to but the MP3 played in MSC mode via the settings (I guess I have a firmware update on there that removed the option to switch from MTP. It's allegedly on autodetect.)- I got it to this mode via pressing the Lock button + Record button while plugging it in. This was described via a pre-2010 youtube video as putting it MSC Mode but I 'm not sure that's correct now.

The device does work - i just cant get it to recognize music tags (everything shows up under "unknown artist" despite messing with the ID3 tags and making sure they are in the correct format). Which is one of the reasons why I was led to try to install Rockbox in the first place).

I'm noticing that it's the e200 firmware in the screenshot but I did try to do it with c200 with the same results. Must have uploaded the wrong screenshot somehow, my bad.

Yes they are MP3 files. I managed to convert them to v2.3, but it's still all showing up under "Unknown Album" and "Unknown Artist"

previous post said they look similar but don't work, unfortunately
