US Politics snark 

Don't get me wrong, there are some left-leaning trends in the Democratic Party, thanks to the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezes and Bernie Sanderses of the party, but, for the most part, fuck 'em.

Leftist mocking CNN Ad 

This is the system. Some people may try to tell you a Trump-Russia connection exists. They may yell "Trump-Russia, Trump-Russia, Trump-Russia". They may put in all caps "TRUMP-RUSSIA SMOKING GUN". You may even begin to believe that a Trump-Russia connection exists. But whether it exists doesn't matter. This...is the liberal media thinking Trump is an outlier and not the system working as intended.

@avi @maple Most of the reason people still use it is because they don't know of anything better (such as the loveliness that is Krita) and are too scared to pirate photoshop. Unfortunately, along with OpenOffice (which, for those unaware, hasn't really been properly supported in *years*), it's most people's only experience with free software (except *maaaaybe* firefox, if you're lucky), and so all free software gets this really bad rap.
As for why FOSS bros promote it...GNU cultists gonna cult?

@bombshellbun I mean, Window Maker or i3wm, tbh, but, if I had to choose, give me KDE. If I have to go for a GNOME 2-like DE, I much prefer MATE over Cinnamon. Cinnamon is very "meh" for what it is.

@ADA_SIX I mean, guitar is just toy bass, so even lesbians who play guitars play bass.

There's also the risk that I do both. Honestly, I feel like the rabbitholes might merge at somepoint. At any rate, things aren't looking good for me.

Window manager rabbithole 

The other day, I found myself tempted by the allures of Window Maker. I ended up biting the bullet and downloading it. I don't know why, but I really like the aesthetic. It's so pretty. Anyways, so, long story short, I find myself torn between going so deep down the customisation rabbithole that I never return or going so deep down the loving old interfaces rabbithole that I can never use a modern system again.

First toot! Quick, think of something good!

Uh...
