  • It’s not even the right flag. The rebel flag we see nowadays is a bastardized version of a battle flag that was flown incredibly briefly and not recognized by most at the time. The original was square because they were too broke to afford the cloth to make it a rectangle.

    The more common version of the flag still included the symbol but on a white background which was literally to show the “purity of the white race” but then people were confusing it for the flag of surrender. Fitting, in my opinion.

    I’m nonbinary so not a man but using moisturizer before bed has done miracles for my skin.

    If you have longer hair, I don’t care what you say about cheap shampoo, use a halfway decent shampoo. Ask your hairstylist or barber and actually listen to them. Additionally, if you want longer hair, go to a hairstylist and if you want shorter hair, go to a barber.

    Clothes have no gender unless you operate certain parts with your penis. It’s better to have something fit well from the women’s section than something that doesn’t fit from the men’s. You might need to have an honest conversation with yourself if you’ve got a more feminine figure or not. Additional tip: If you’re a legitimately small person, the women’s section is a godsend. Aeropostale specifically specializes in the smallest sizes of jeans possible.







  • Here’s how you actually free space on your computer in a way that matters without installing some malware “fix-it” program or need a computer divining rod to find every random file:

    • WizTree: Scan your entire computer hards drive(s) in a matter of seconds and display a very useful graph and data about where your space it being taken up. It’s eons faster and easier to use than the leading competitor WinDirStat to the point where I can’t imagine why anyone would use something that isnt WizTree.

    • BCUninstaller: It helps uninstall as many apps and programs off of your computer automatically with little to no user interaction needed beyond hitting the “start” button

    • BleachBit: It deletes all the temporary and nonessential stuff that gets accumulated over time. It won’t clear as much as BCUninstaller or deleting stuff with WizTree and a lot of apps will generate most temporary files again anyways but I do typically see a decrease of around a gigabyte or two. Worth a shot in any case.

    • Winget: While not a software in the general sense, Winget is a package manager built into Windows 10/11 itself that lets you automatically download, configure, and install a ton of programs in one command via command prompt or PowerShell.

    Every single program I’ve listed here are available on Winget.
