Yeah, something like that. I usually just wear the ones that look more like hats like these ones, though

Black people receive a lot of flack for publicly wearing bonnets, so I don't want to be insensitive. I have severe sensory issues and things like satin, silk, etc are the only safe materials for my head.

Edit: will wear something different. I am just doing my best to not be culturally insensitive. I will look for a different style of hats; this question is about appropriation.

I wish there was a newbie-friendly distro that didn't use Systemd.
