    I hear ya.

    They’re a product of the machine that raised them.

    They all constantly get told to expect the unexpected because one of these days jebus comes back, or one of them is going to be “the leader of a new generation” (vom). And not a damn thing happens aside from a kid getting cured from a headache after 2 hours of hysterical prayer and a painkiller…

    Some of them get abused in various forms, most of them are truly holding onto their god thing because the leadership sure ain’t stepping up aside from more catchphrases and “encounter weekends” (or whatever the fuck they come up to waste time). Life is under unbearable tension with a monster of a sky daddy god looking over your shoulder making sure you’re only using it to pee. And keep fighting of all the thoughts 24/7. Especially the empathetic ones.

    Deny yourself, and after that deny yourself even harder. I dare you, I double dare you! (And don’t ask questions, it’s a weird complex book you should know but heart but don’t expect to understand any of it’s hatred love.

    All that bottled up hatred has to go somewhere. And it spills out onto the one group they can aim at (because praying against imaginary demons gets old fast)=> all the OTHER people.

    And then they act surprised that they don’t fit in with the rest of society.

    I know it’s meagre consolidation but let’s be glad you got out of there.

    Next stage is you’re writing your own backstory that somehow combines minis from different factions and games even.

    You take care to walk a fine line to keep it cohesive and relatable.

    You invest time and effort to bring it to life on the table.

    You even spend hours play testing the rules and stats you wrote, with an eye on keeping things balanced.

    “Nah man, let’s just play 40k as is, I mean your stuff seems weird”.

    -Go find appropriate driver for soundcard.

    =>or we could launch steam and have fun. Wait, even better what about gog? Man I wanna play Warhammer Dark Omen so bad. You know what, let’s head over to their forums and ask for a Linux version. Come to think of it, what would you need to run it? Could I run it on wine? Dark Omen doesn’t even run properly on Dosbox, is that one revival project on YouTube going anywhere? Still dead…damn.

    And that’s how far I am trying to get grapheneOs running on that one phone.

    Welcome!

    Mint is an awesome choice to start. It’s got a nice balance between slim and enough features to get you going.

    Keep in mind at all times: at some point you’re gonna need that one piece of external hardware to play nice with Linux or maybe that one piece of software ain’t doing it like you’re used to.=> there is a way or an alternative. Always keep calm, research the topic, and follow instructions carefully and thoughtfully when you find a tutorial.

    That aside enjoy it, a little slice of freedom away from big tech awaits.
