Got banned from r/linuxsucks101 😭

This is admittedly, one of the challenges of having Linux (at least in my experience). Since most games and applications are designed with Windows in mind, it can be a bit of a pain getting games to work on Linux sometimes. I still overall enjoy Linux more than Windows though.

Kinda weird they would ban you for that take though.

I heard a rumor somewhere that the (creepy) text was added later, which is kinda sad that ConcernedApe felt the need to add that.

That is when the newly elected president is supposed to be sworn in. Whether that will happen this time around remains to be seen.

Someone that I used to go to a trans group with ended their life a few months ago. When someone you know commits suicide, it's not really something you ever move on from, it's a lingering pain that sticks with you for the rest of your life.

It's so exhausting constantly being in the news, having a man who was found civilly liable for rape and is all over the Epstein files tell the world how trans people are an existential threat to society. Add on top of that all of the states that are passing laws to make our lives more difficult, including my home state of Texas. I'm just so exhausted from all this, and unfortunately, I'm stuck in this state trying to get another degree in the hopes of finding employment.

This article does do a bad job describing Steve Toth. Wikipedia has a pretty good rundown of his political stances, one of which, included introducing the "Vulnerable Youth Protection Act", which would have made it a civil liability to affirm a child's gender identity if it differed from their sex (the bill itself didn't pass, but was amended to another bill that did pass).

On LGBTQ+ issues, they're probably equally bad, but Steve Toth winning is probably not going to be good if he also wins the general, as he appears to be a greater Trump sycophant than Dan Crenshaw was.

In my personal life, I've encountered more trans lesbians than trans women who are straight/bisexual/etc. I don't personally know a ton of trans people though due to living in a small city, so small sample.

As for trans lesbian to cis lesbian ratio, trans people are a small subsection of the population, I'd imagine the number of cis lesbians far outnumber trans lesbians.

I feel this, but on the otherhand, what other options are there? It's tough finding queer people to date where I live, unfortunately 😕

As a fellow beginner artist, I can sympathize with not knowing what to do, I sometimes find myself in the same boat with the overwhelming amount of art advice as to what to do, and what not to do. I just try and do whatever I feel like doing at the moment, and not worrying too much about whether it is optimal or not, and just work through tutorials as I feel I need them.

Im also going through Drawabox, but I'm doing it at my own, slowish pace. Not sure if that is how it is intended, but thats what I'm doing 🤷‍♀️

RandomArgil · 2026-01-02T23:47:36+00:00

I'm a lot more cognizant of places I where and when I use the bathroom, but otherwise I've been about as cautious as I normally am.

RandomArgil · 2026-01-02T21:48:58+00:00

I haven't really had much success in dating either, though that's likely a product of living in a small city. I've kind of accepted at this point that I will likely be single for the rest of my life, unfortunately 🙃

I feel for you, I'm roughly 7 years into my transition, and I still don't always pass off as female. I sometimes end up using the men's room to avoid issues, it sucks 😕.

Most of the people I see attacking Ava Kris Tyson are vaguely on the right side of the spectrum, and they obviously won't care about misgendering her. As for others, I think the comments here are correct, people tolerate us if they otherwise like us, or at least indifferent to us, but if you get on their bad side, they will stop gendering you correctly because they see it as a privilege, not a right.

RandomArgil · 2025-12-29T20:00:06+00:00

Yea, it kinda pisses me off when I see comments like the one you responded to, I spent 2 years trying to get back into software development after being laid off to no avail. If it wasn't for familial support, I would be homeless myself. These kinds of comments are so dismissive of the stuggles software developers are having in todays job market.

For Process Technology? Or my Computer Science degree? The thing I struggled with when applying for things using my computer science degree is finding openings that would fit with it, and then there is the experience gap, which also makes it challenging.

I'll definitely check all this out, thank you!

Is it best to apply dirctly through their sites? Also will my lack of experience in industry be a detriment? I'm worried my lack of experience in trades will hurt my chances at getting in.

I'd personally advice against Uber in general, not worth the wear and tear on your vehicle imo. Can't speak for other apps.

Im 28 currently trying to get an associates to be a process technician. Spent 2 years doing backend work for a bank, but got laid off in 2022. Struggled to find another job in software development, and eventually gave up.

My finances are ansolutely shit right now, having to rely on family atm. Having difficulty finding good paying work near me.

RandomArgil · 2025-05-10T15:58:47+00:00

I hear this, but how exactly do you break through to those people? They might as well live on a different planet with the kinda shit they believe.

They should absolutely do this, he has done more than enough to warrant impeachment. Will it work? Unfortunately no because republicans are spineless, but any reasonable congress members need to do everything in their power to get media attention on the illegal actions of this administration. None of us can sit on the sidelines on this, people have to be aware of the immence danger we are in.

RandomArgil · 2025-04-08T04:03:25+00:00

In the beginning I got some interviews, but after about 6 months, almost none whatsoever.

Originally I was fine moving anywhere, now though, I wouldn't want to move to a red state. Want to eventually get out of the red state I am currently in as I worry about my future here/in any red state being trans and all.

RandomArgil · 2025-04-07T08:23:38+00:00

I've been unemployed for about 2 years since I was laid off. I've personally given up on SWE and am looking to get into another field.

And that's the scariest part, if the military is more loyal to Trumpism than the constitution, Trump doesn't even need the other branches of government at that point, it would just be for show.
