I hand this advice out like Halloween candy. I just rarely swallow it myself.I tell people their constant whining is exhausting. Because it is. Complaining feels productive, but its just emotional junk food. It gives you the illusion of movement while you stay parked. Every rant is a little dopamine

20% seems like a lot.

It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.

Kindness is invincible, if it be sincere and not hypocritical or a mere facade. For what can the most insulting of people do to you if you are consistently kind to him, and, when the occasion allows, gently advise him and quietly put him on the proper course at the very time when he is attempting to do you a mischief.

As Americans we are often defined by what we do. We answer the question at parties, coffee shops, family gatherings and anywhere you meet someone for the first time. Its endless.

Im here to tell you youre more than your 9-5. You can be someone that works a cruddy job and still be a brilliant, artistic, leader who is a genuinely cool person.

Go forth and be yourself, not the title you get when you make money.

Just if someone else every runs into this problem:
I use the latest version of Ubuntu and I had the problem that links wouldn't open in my browser when I clicked on them in Signal - didn't think too much about it because I thought it was a sandbox security thing. But then it happened with discord, too, so I had to investigate.

A few hours of research later, it turned out that I had two firefox profiles in /.local/share/applications

If you have the same problem start journalctl -f in a terminal, click on a link that won't open and then something like this should pop up:
Discord5692: Could not find the program '/usr/lib/firefox/firefox-bin'

go to .local/share/applications and search for any firefox-XXXX.desktop file, open them with a text editor and see if you find the link in there that journalctl gave you. That's the file you need to delete.

After that everything should work fine again.

Still don't know why it only started in Signal, but that works now again as well, so I am happy.
