Why does that breed always look like their entire world is crashing down around them right this moment? Like, a stage actress training for her role as Juliet when she discovers Romeo killed himself because he thought she was dead, could take her cues from this photo.
Same. Or (“That one’s too easy, I’m not going to bother to volunteer an answer. I’ll wait for a harder question.”)
Doesn’t Elmo get bullied enough without people comparing him to an egomaniac with too much money and not enough sense?
lemmygrad.ml and lemmy.ml are run by them, the former is explictly a tankie haven. While lemmy.ml is supposed to be a general lemmy instance, the admins (which are the same as lemmygrad’s) have spoken in favor of genocide and removed posts on lemmy.ml that are critical of the CCP, especially in regards to the treatment of the Uyghurs.
Most instances have defederated lemmygrad, some have defederated lemmy.ml as well.
I absolutely disagree about all fediverse devs being problematic. @ernest is the dev of KBin, and everything I’ve seen of or about him shows he’s a good person and a gem.
Also, there’s a vast difference between being a bit of an asshole sometimes, depending on your point of view (like Linus Torvalds), and trying to justify genocide (lemmy devs).
Less standardized than just the most natural coloring. Or wildcat coloring. The standard insofar as monocolor coats, long hair, calico, etc. are nonstandard for cats as a species.
That’s the joke.
Btw: Anyone made a /c/thatsthejoke or /m/thatsthejoke yet?
Protonmail accounts are free. Just make one and use it for bug report signups.
Is there a known downside to this mutation? Like increased risk of autoimmune disorders?
@Tenthrow That “kbin” link is only for kbin.social users. There are other kbin instances such as kglitch.social, fedia.io, karab.in, …
!spaceballs (!spaceballs@lemmy.world) works for everyone if the community you’re linking to isn’t on your own instance (which is why it’s working for me but not for you; both lemmy and kbin are currently too overzealous at removing the instance part if it’s your own instance).
If you want a kbin link that works for all kbin users, use For Kbin Users [For Kbin Users](/search?q=spaceballs@lemmy.world)
Why on earth is this tagged as NSFW?
Link that actually works: !neuroscience
I just blocked the entire instance. Does that not work in lemmy?
Yeah, I’ve heard of this scenario basically the first time I heard about climate change period, and that was before 2004.
For a long time I (and people around me) just believed I must have become a lazy person and that I just needed to get over myself. The idea that I might be ill didn’t even come up. When I struggled to write my bachelor’s thesis I did visit an insurance-approved psychologist, but all that guy did was trying to find ways I could motivate myself, with no attempt to find out what was causing me to struggle in the first place rather than just reinforce my perception that I must just be lazy. After a couple of months I stopped going because all those visits did was making me feel worse. Also, because I chose to go to a psychologist directly rather than being delegated there by a doctor/psychiatrist, insurance only covered half of the cost, so it was a waste of money as well.
Really the first idea that it might be a mental illness rather than a personality flaw and being a general failure of a person didn’t come up at all until I read a book in which I saw a lot of myself in the protagonist’s mother who was said in the book to have depression. That same week I had my second bout of suicidal ideation, which drove me to get help asap.
Definitely not ADHD in my case. My depression came from family history and having internalised harmfully high expectations.
Edit: Oh and likely genetics that produce less serotonin than would be ideal.
Edit2: Also, it developed way too gradually to be a burnout.
You’re right on all counts. With the help of therapy and medicine I was able to reach a state where I was able to start an apprenticeship as an automation specialist in a regular firm without any concessions that would need to be noted on the certificate of proficiency (just a bit more leniency for sick days (unpaid)). Just a few weeks ago I received my federal certificate for this profession and I’m now starting to look for jobs (luckily, the market is starved for automation specialists).
But as you guessed, it’s still an ongoing process. For the duration of the apprenticeship I had to work 100% and as a consequence was sick a lot (part my body complaining about being overworked, part not always having the willpower to power through). I’m planning to only work a maximum of 80% in future, maybe just 70%.
Some days are still very difficult. Just last week I shut down completely for two days because of the combination of needing to prepare my work project for handover, looking for a new workplace (my current one only deals with apprenticeships, it’s kind of like a school in that regard) and being hounded at home about deep cleaning my room and parts of the house in preparation for moving out (was living with several other people for the duration of the apprenticeship and will move out next month) all at once.
I’m very grateful to the state (canton) I’m living in for all the help I received without counting it as debt against me (unless I suddenly win the lottery jackpot, inherit a fortune from an unexpected benefactor, or start earning disgusting amounts of money). Because of that, I’m hoping I can find work in this state so that my taxes may help in continuing these policies for other people rather than benefit an unrelated state.
So what? The topic wasn’t about her being a biological woman. It was about her being a woman and whether she was qualified to have an opinion as the woman she is.
She does accept who she is: A woman born in a biologically male body who chose to change her body to fit who she is.
Now if the topic had been something only biological women experience, like menstruation or pregnancy, your argument would have some relevance. But it wasn’t. The topic was wether or not to trend towards believing women about rape allegations, a topic where it doesn’t matter whether you were born without a Y chromosome.
Maybe they splurged for a ceramic one. Or illegally bought a real one.
