Just like cable! \o/
Wait until they learn that the thumbs-up in some countries means what the middle finger does in the US…

Oh, thank god. Plasma looks good for me. Easy to look at and professional. Assuming I understand how it works, which popular distros can use Plasma? Update: After some quick research, I think I want to use Kubuntu? Does that sound like a good idea?

I see. I’ll look into it, thanks.
Cool, but didn’t everyone tell me I should use Mint, for a bunch of reasons including “it’s arguably the most beginner-friendly”?
Dude, I just had this realization on my own a few months ago. I grew up thinking weeds literally choked the life out of grass and other plants by definition. So after some thought I started saying to myself and others “weeds are just any plant you don’t desire in your yard, they aren’t a species or group, the word means nothing”

That means he’ll die regardless of which he is!
I further updated my explanation, there you go.

That’s not why I removed it. If you’re trying to post a helpful comment in response to a mental health issue, I recommend phrasing it in a way that doesn’t sound ambiguously toxic. That’s not a rule or demand, it’s just why I removed it.
Update: For context, it was a minimalistic statement along the lines of “I thought all the gang stalker victims were on Reddit” or something-- I forget the exact phrasing. I only removed that and one other comment here, and performed no other moderator actions; because I couldn’t tell the intention of the commenter, and I’m not here to “crack down” on people unnecessarily. If I took the nature of the comment the wrong way, then 1. so could OP, which is the point of the removal, and 2. you can always try posting again in a different way. We’re all chill here, or so I hope, fam.
Welcome to being a mod-- people will always think you either do too little or do too much, and your decision is always wrong. I’ve accepted this. But I do like to be transparent and chill.
I promise you these are all different people, just responding how they naturally would to posts such as yours. The internet can be a mean place, and some people are easier targets than others. And it’s unlikely any of the commenters here know you personally.
Either way-- regardless of which events may not be happening-- your issues sound tough. Please speak to a professional mental health worker, and I wish you well.
Note from moderator: The comments here are walking a thin line and I’m not always sure which to remove. But here’s my advice for y’all:
I’m not against people saying OP likely has schizophrenia and has paranoid delusions. I’m not sure how insensitive it may be to make those arguments. But for the love of god please watch your tone and phrasing, and use some common-sense empathy when people are struggling with mental health. I’m removing a few of the more callous-sounding comments, but I’m not sending any warnings unless they’re really mean. Thank you.
Update: also feel free to report comments if you think they are too mean.

Pretty sure they died off in the 1600s from man being jerks. Ice Age isn’t a good source for history.
I mean, regardless of semantics about whether it’s new to us or not, that’s still news.
Yeah, because you’ll fall off the bottom into space
