I don't have a solution. However, here's suggestions.
Try to evaluate her actions and words as a reflection as to her own insecurities or immaturity. Try to assess if there is any thing you can say to her to get her to respect you the way you wish. This would likely involve setting clear personal boundaries. If not, then don't be her friend, and spend time with people who you have better relationships with. You can also try to make new friends by joining activities you have genuine interest in. I'm guessing if you find people who share your values or interests, you'll be happier.
Also, if you have some friends you like better, ask them directly if they view you as childish. Ask them to be specific and honest. There might be something easy you can do differently. Or they might not view you as childish at all.
I doubt they took into account the emissions and other climate effects due to the animal agriculture they will be supporting.
No, two of the most likely mechanisms are cholesterol and AGEs.
If you want to return to being a cereal person, try a minimally processed no sugar cereal such as Uncle Sam, with a no sugar plant milk such as West Life soymilk.
The picture looks like the cat is asleep, which doesn't seem to be "head pressing". The picture looks like normal cat behavior to me.
Had a cat who jumped on the counters all the time when we first got her. Decided to cover the counters with tin foil. Scared her quite badly. Needless to say she has not to our knowledge jumped up again.
If a tumbleweed update causes issues, then rollback to a previous snapshot where the issue was not present. You should: reboot into the preupdate snapshot, which will be in read only mode; then launch zoom and check it works without error; then in a terminal enter sudo snapper rollback, which creates a read write copy of the good snapshot; reboot and your computer should be as if you never did the update.
The next question is about updating again in the future and if zoom will break. If you update again in say a month, the issue may not occur. It's hard to say. Otherwise, if you can figure out which library packages caused the problem, you can lock them in yast so that they do not update on zypper dup.
I had a similar issue with zoom in the last few years. If zoom stability is essential for you, just use the flatpak. The web client is an option too.
