  • Gods, plural. But believe is a weird word.

    I commune with the ancient gods of my ancestors, whether I believe in them is complicated though. I spent most of my life atheist after the christian church failed to grab me. I learned of my ancestral religion from my great grandmother and my great aunt. Grandma was Catholic on paper but still recognized the old gods. My aunt called herself a druid.

    I choose to commune with the old gods because I have to believe in something. I’ve felt the call of spirit, the gaping void in my heart where spirituality was meant to be, but I do not trust organized religion. I don’t trust the churches. I don’t trust those who would hold power, enforced by faith, over those who do not know better.








  • Frustrating.

    The rate at which I absorb information is disgusting. Yes please finish your sentence I already have a response why are you taking so long. How did I learn that? I picked up the manual and did it. Developing new skills? Learning Rust right now and its going well, failed out of highschool because I learned too easily and didn’t need the homework to learn (so it didn’t get done).

    It comes with imposter syndrome: I knew the problem, I had the pattern figured out, why did I still fuck everything up (plot twist I probably didn’t).

    It comes with a superiority complex: I learned this in 10 minutes from looking at a Sci Journal, why has it been hours and yallvstill don’t get it? 🙄

    It comes with accidentally hurting people: frequently I say things thinking something hould be obvious when it is not, while unintended, it often hurts my partner who is usually in the line of fire when I let some dumb shit outta my mouth and insult someone’s intelligence.

    Anyway I hate it I’d rather be dumbsauce ignorance is bliss






  • Barely a week later and I had to do the thing. My partner uses LMDE and Nvidia 535 is the newest version in their repos, but we need nvidia 565+ for Kingdom Hearts 3.

    Installing from the website wasn’t as hard as I remember.

    1. Blacklist Nouveau.
    2. As root, without an X server running, run the nvidia*.run file from the website
    3. Follow the prompts.
    4. Verify your initramfs rebuilt correctly before rebooting.
    5. Reboot and enjoy your actually current driver.
    6. Bonus step, restore your Xorg.conf backup because you’re on a multigpu laptop and you just borked the Xorg.conf with the installer so mesa doesn’t end up loading and X ends up dead on summon
