I stopped trick-or-treating at 11 or so when I became self-conscious and had some depression/introvert stuff happen. Sometimes I'm sad that I stopped so early in my childhood. I just want people to know that I love them and want them to be happy and have fun.
I don't give a fuck how old you are. Are you having fun and want some candy?!

If it's a conservative or religious person trying to justify something:
"That's really interesting, why do you think --insert brief summary of their topic/first sentence-- ?"
Continue this until they realize they've either painted themselves into a corner or they realize I'm trolling them several monologues/pages later. It's the uno reverso card when they try wasting my time.
I came here to recommend this book series. Very fun, compelling, and breaks down complex ideas into smaller digestible plot devices that actually mean something later in the series.
With the caveat that you should absolutely not do banking or log into anything personal on the clearnet from TOR, although it would surprise me if most sites even allow traffic from known exit nodes. There are a disturbing amount of exit nodes that absolutely monitor outgoing traffic, and if one of those is malicious, the owner can and will steal your shit. And that's just the exit nodes not controlled by law enforcement.
I wouldn't recommend using TOR without first routing through a VPN, as entry guard nodes are another target for law enforcement, and receive your IP address when you connect.
Fuck. I guess I'm a pokemon virgin and utterly worthless now
I think Google maps does something similar with Firefox, where it won't zoom in with the mouse wheel--only the '+' and '-' buttons work. It also seems to lag quite a bit on Firefox. On chrome it works just fine.
If we are being honest, Russia would probably appreciate some of the heat getting moved from Ukraine to the Middle East.
I have an Nvidia 2060 Super with Pop_OS driver version 535.xx(?), and I haven't run into a game proton doesn't work with.
It sounds like you're more familiar with Linux than the average person, so I'll forgo advising Ubuntu or Mint. I personally prefer Pop!_OS, but that's also because I was a MacOS user for a while and like the feel of that.
I am also more comfy on distros that use the apt package manager, but learning a new one is pretty minor.
As you said you like Win7, which feels fairly straight forward, there are a couple that strike me as something you might like. They are less flashy, lower on resource requirements, and generally stay out of the way.
Xubuntu - it's based off Ubuntu, and is downstream from Debian, so there is quite a bit of support in forums that is applicable. It's pretty lightweight, and gets the job done. Everything generally seems to "just work". The bad: resizing windows with the mouse cursor is sensitive and difficult.
MX Linux, or a distro with a KDE environment (there are several (Ubuntu, neon, or pop_OS(?)). KDE feels a lot like "windows", but also incorporates some sensible enhancements. The enhancements aren't flashy (not like Mint)... they just make sense and feel right. The Bad: you need to go into settings and change single-clicking a file/program from opening the item to selecting it. One thing to note is that MXLinux does add a few things to the right click contextual menu, which might also drive you nuts--it does me. MX is good, but didn't feel right for me. The other KDE options don't do this IIRC.
EndeavorOS - A pretty lightweight option that also feels very traditional with few frills like Win7. I don't have as much experience with this distro as I would like. It uses Pakman and AUR, which I am least familiar with, and is also a rolling distro from what I understand, which might eliminate this option if you're looking for stability. Although, I've read many comments from people who have had zero issues for years with it. But, there are things you have to be proactive about like snapshotting before updating that can make it a hassle.
Distrowatch.com is a great tool to check the pros and cons out if you haven't seen it already.
EDIT: I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier, but you can also simply install KDE on Debian as well. This might be a really good option since you're already familiar with it.
I'm at the stage where I'm ready to remove myself from Facebook and other stuff, but I also know just how isolating it will be.
