Thunderbird actually had a big resurgence a little while back, I use it as my mobile client 🤷‍♂️ If I understand correctly it’s not actually a directly Mozilla project anymore.

Personally I’m less bothered by the terms of use changes specifically than the bigger picture of mozilla consistently making choices that confuse or raise eyebrows with their core audience, letting their browser languish from a technical standpoint, and making confusing business choices that don’t seem to help their financial future at all while paying executives huge salaries

Wasn’t sure if there were better places to post this, feel free to cross-post if you know other fitting communities :)

Emergency medicine. I’ve heard various medical fields/disciplines described that way

Under conditions that raise the possibility of females engaging in extra-pair copulations (i.e., periods of separation from their partner, allegations of female infidelity), Gallup et al. (2003) also found that males appear to modify the use of their penis in ways that are consistent with the displacement hypothesis. Based on anonymous surveys of over 600 college students, many sexually active males and females reported deeper and more vigorous thrusting when in-pair sex occurred under conditions related to an increased likelihood of female infidelity.

I wasn’t prepared for any of it, but I certainly wasn’t prepared for to read that paragraph

Meant to reply to this but it got burried in my inbox-

Im glad you got value out of it, it’s a subject I care a lot about as someone who’s fairly mentally ill and tries to hold myself to a high standard in how I engage with people.

Hope you have a good one :)

😳

So like… Psych meds and hormones don’t count right…?

Who wants to fight!? 😡

Thanks for the additional context!

Those are some sweet fuckin pants, I want some

I think the important thing is really just that mental illness doesn’t shield you from accountability for how you impact other people, and for a personality disorder that primarily manifests in traits that harm people, that’s a hard thing to reconcile with that person’s merits. Doesn’t mean you can’t or shouldn’t, just that because you are still responsible for potentially hurting people, and have a disorder that makes you very likely to do so, those things will be very hard for people to square.

Another example is paraphilias. Paraphilias can include things like pedophilia, which manifests in a desire to do something that would subject someone to profound amounts of trauma, the likes of which most of us couldn’t even begin to appreciate. Can someone with such a paraphilia be a good person who is kind, and does not harm people in that way? Yes. Can that person be largely a good person in most contexts, but cause people enormous harm as a result of their paraphilia? Also yes.

In some ways we are all people with conditions that affect who we would be otherwise, and in other ways we are all just people, and conditions are used descriptively to communicate the traits that we have.

At the end of the day, the thing that matters is how you treat people. If you cause people harm, it might be more understandable given the context of a personality disorder, but it doesn’t absolve you of any responsibility. And if you don’t, then you haven’t done anything wrong. And I mean that for each moment in time, each interaction. Humans are messy and complicated, and generally ideas like “good person”, “bad person”, are reductive.

I’m sorry you feel trapped or defined by your diagnosis. That can be a painful place to be. I have a close friend with borderline personality disorder who has at times felt similarly. Only thing that matters is whether you’re an asshole. Only thing that ever has mattered, only thing that ever will.

Edit: just want to be very clear- the fact that it will be hard for people to engage with you purely based on your behaviour in a given interaction is not something you deserve. Its the actions and how they affect people that count, even if I can empathize with why it’d be hard for people

Awwww

I do wish we could afford a few more pixels though. This is a paltry sum.

I’d argue we’re a lot more like the British empire in their glory days- exporting authoritarianism, subjugation, and hate globally, for as long as it serves our material benefit.

We learned from the best 🤷‍♂️

Love me some street complete! It’s a great way for me to get out of the house and do stuff even when places are closed, since I’m not awake during the day

That looks awesome! I’m deeply nostalgic for that period of time, material design was the big thing when I was first getting into UI design and I was absolutely in love with it

Klwp and Kwgt are still a blast, that’s what almost all of my stuff is made out of, but iOS has its pros as well :) from what I hear things are progressively getting a little more customizable, if still pretty locked down

At some point I’d like to get a little better at animations so I can make my setup feel a little more alive, but for the time being it’s mostly just static elements

Lol, I’m somewhat similar. I’m a big ui/ux nerd but don’t have professional or academic experience other than some pro-bono work in high-school. But I love tinkering with my phone’s homesceen and other similar little projects. I’m hoping to make a neocites page soon!

This is my previous phone’s homescreen I posted a while back:

I’ve gotten a new phone since then and am still getting it updated to fit properly on a new screen, so right now it looks a little jank 😅 but it’s always interesting to hear how other people feel differently about aesthetics than yourself!

Interesting, thanks for sharing your perspective with me! ☺️

I’m curious how you feel about the GNOME application icons, they sound like they might be up your alley

Right now I generally have a preference for either weird stylized themed stuff I make myself, or very flat stuff like what android currently does for app icons, but I can certainly see the appeal of other stuff :)

I really like the application icons used in Gnome but I really like the consistent line weights and geometry of material symbolic icons so I’m still using a material icon pack on gnome

Edit: Here’s a picture I grabbed of icons done in the adwaita style Gnome uses in case you don’t use linux and aren’t familiar with them. Its not a full sampling, but you get the idea :)

Personally I don’t, I kinda hate old skeuomorphism 😅

Neo skeuomorphism has some neat novelty though.

Edit: this is just my personal aesthetic preference, I don’t begrudge anyone their love of skeuomorphism, or nostalgia for it.

It’s not quite what you’re describing, but neocities probably has some blog templates you could use. I know there’s a webcomic artist who hosts their webcomic on neocities using a template

But it wouldn’t be a blogging specific platform, and I don’t expect there’d be any way to integrate with ActivityPub

Good luck in your search for the right platform!

I’m a bit of a FOSS nerd and care about privacy, but I’m much more an art and design person than I am a technical person.

I use Linux, and I can write some very basic code after learning how in Highschool, but mostly I just like making pretty stuff. Especially anything to-do with UI/UX

Like someone else said, I’m a technical person compared to the average population, but not compared to Lemmy, or the FLOSS community. I left reddit when the api changes happened, and have found I really love the Fediverse and very strongly believe in what it represents
