This is the error I am receiving:

You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.

You've not provided any OS/release details, which are the starting point for package issues (*deb packages are built for a specific release so release is required detail; snap packages work on all*). A quick look at one picked at random shows https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=librhythmbox-core10&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all but I don't know your release details! so can do no more. If you're using a *supported* release & match that data, I'd suggest starting with the command `sudo apt update` & peruse the output, any warnings, missing lines etc.

If you read the link I provided; your pasted details provide no clues as package versions match multiple releases, highlighting you need to examine what you're actually running, plus your sources (ie. the `sudo apt update` is the likely place to start once you work out what you're actually running, as you didn't tell us we're rather limited). A 2020 install is only helpful if we know what was installed; an old release? a new release? a respin of an old release? etc

File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/db/creator.py", line 11, in <module> import apt_pkg ImportError: libapt-pkg.so.6.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I think maybe this is a problem? I can run python2 and python3, when I try import apt_pkg, I got the same error. But I cant install python-pip, since my apt-get update is not even working

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/apt/libapt-pkg6.0_2.0.2_amd64.deb I was able to install this, then the sudo apt-get update runs fine now

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
