sorry, could you explain? is it about the polemic semantic weight in the word ‘female’?
i feel “non-binary/fluid” most of the time but i didn’t socialize enough to use some words correctly.

oh, you mean like Barnum Effect? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnum_effect)
i don’t know what is normal anymore… i always thought i was neurotypical, common, but i got BPD diagnosed, bullied, stigmatised because of these ‘completely normal human things’. yesterday i was told it could be a feminine Aspie.
sorry… i’m ashamed, but it’s just my fault, i couldn’t understand. thanks for your comment.
i still don’t know if i’m autistic, so i’m just lurking around. but i upvoted you. you seem a good person, let’s make that minus symbol disappear ^^
it’s a bit hypocritical that big companies complain about piracy when they are no better than Blackbeard, xxx-sama and Akainu combined.
i mean, they have hijacked the system so they can set the rules, their lawyers are law crackers, they take advantages of artists to buy their copyright for pennies and making millions of it, they scam us with DLC’s, fees, dark patterns; they steal our private info, images, text creations, etc. to sell it or use it for AI development; and they also limit our access to the internet and technology by banning third party apps, modding, using anything related to their patents…
sorry but if i was a law enforcer, they would be the first ones i would chase after.
masochistic self-kink shaming? i’ll take it!
what if i feel a sadistic kink about king shaming others’ kinks? my kink should be respected then, right? evil laugh
it’s admiration, not necrophilia! Charles Darwin is dead!
i can confirm the medicine shortage, not just in psychatric recently, but in other pharma fields, along the years.
our Latin American brothers and sisters in Spain were doing their best to send medicines to their families in LATAM. you could also see people asking on Twitter for medicines. iirc it was commented on the news too.
here in Spain we also have public healthcare, and we all people pay for those medicines so individuals don’t have to assume all the cost on their own. pandemic has shown our healthcare system is not as good, public and clean as our corrupt politicians tend to say, but still, we think public healthcare is the way to go.
in Spain abortion is legal since many years, but a year ago or so, in a region of Spain, a extreme right-wing party wanted to create a regional law to make women asking for abortion feel guilty.
medicians would be obligated to ask women “before aborting, would you want to listen to your baby’s heartbeat, or that we take a 4D radiography of them?”.
the women could refuse, but the medicians would be obligated to ask. this extreme right-wing party tried to push this regional law proposal in an attempt to push antiabortion agenda bypassing the national abortion law.
this right-wing party wanted to make women feel guilty of their abort decision, as if many many women hadn’t had enough guilt, doubt and sadness when asking for abortion bc they aren’t in the position of having a baby (see our emancipation, salary and unemployment rates), or they weren’t even in a position of conceiving in first place (rape, mental suffering, codependency, drug abuse, etc.). this political party wanted to take advantage on these women’s situation of vulnerability. that’s horrible.
(also in that region, big part of medicians and population overall were known of being right-wing and sexist. that’s how this right-wing party got power to propose this law).
fortunately, it seems we have progressed, to the point many medicians were the most angry at this, and them, along with feminists (many are both), and citizens in general didn’t allow this law to happen in this region of Spain.
but sorry for digressing, the main point is that many people in Spain are very happy for Mexico. we wish you the best. we hope our LATAM siblings get the progress and independence they wish and deserve. we are on it too here. let’s do this 💪
just passing by, just wanted to say i liked your content a lot.
so please, take my upvote and my upcomment, and have a nice day.
i agree, but the thing is that we could be already doing more ‘here’ and ‘there’ to fix this corruption, but in the end we don’t get anything done ‘here’ or ‘there’ anyway because we are not organized enough in local.
if i can’t fix my own stuff, how can i pretend to fix others’? i get the ‘there is no time to think small’, but i don’t think we currently are ‘locally big’ enough to think ‘big globally’ either.
also, the ecologic problems in countries like India, Bangladesh or China (for example), mostly depend directly on how economy is being handled by these countries, but also in rich countries that externalize their industry and garbage there, which makes this not an isolated corruption problem, but a whole failed economic model, in global as you say.
we people from Western countries import industry and export garbage, when we could have a responsible national, inner, circular, market first, so we don’t affect other economies so much and so bad.
i feel we people from Western countries are in a much powerful position than people from those countries because we are the Demanding part of the market. we shape it. they Offer what we Demand. sadly, when it comes to the market, a bunch of Westerners can have more impact on India’s Government than one of their citizens.
the problem: we are powerful but we cannot make it count because we are disorganized on what to do and how, we have been numbed and individualized.
we can cry in forums or go greta’ing to random politicians, but when it comes to action it feels like we are “oh no! … anyway” and go to daily stuff again. i think the easiest way to not get overwhelmed by this is starting local, making active choices in our economies and prosecuting corruption.
in Spain we get fined if we don’t recycle or even if a box is outside their respective container (even if it’s not ours, some councils just want to fine people)
the company in charge of recycling (EcoEmbes) is not doing their job of waste collection, sorting, separation and treatment in our country, and they are even faking their statistics to make us think in Spain we are achieving our recycling goals, when we are not recycling even the 25 %.
GreenPeace Spain has been reporting this for years but nothing is done, because this EcoEmbes company is just a part of the political corruption network that reigns over us. https://es.greenpeace.org/es/en-profundidad/ecoembes-lo-reyes-del-greenwashing/ (Spanish)
many Spanish citizens already know about this and they recycle ‘just in case’, or they get so damn discouraged that they decide not to recycle at all. we are just… tired and depressed. no will to fight since 2014.
i have four containers, one for each garbage type, and i still recycle even if i know maybe not even the 25 % of it will be treated as it should.
it’s very depressing. it’s not just companies, but our governments too. they are allies one to another, and their enemy is every nuisance that interferes with their greed. the only green they like is money.
i wish European Union helped us Spanish citizens with the EcoEmbes corruption and our many other corruptions, but the European Union is just an European richman’s club, so i suspect they probably will be doing their own corruption schemes in their countries too, and being allies to our politicians.
our Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, who is probably going to be re-elected, and his Ministers, but also members of the Royal Family, and other Left and Right governments before since forever, = all of them politicians and monarchs in office, have been using the Falcon airplanes to go to the most simple reunion, vacation, music concert, football match… just citing ‘security reasons’ even if the reasons are not related to their job.
here you have the usage statistics of our current Government’s Falcon airplanes, taken from FlightRadar: https://falcondespega.es
thanks to this page, the Government stopped using the airplanes so innecessarily because people started being aware of it. but if not, our Ministers and monarchs would be still doing as bad as before.
they could be using trains but why doing so, right?
sigh
sorry for the long post.
that’s funny, because if they rely on AI to serve them, they will the first ones to be screwed. the most replaceable human class in the History is not plebs, but tyrants. they are the least prepared, the least talented, the least creative, the least reliable, the least resourceful, and finally, the least willing to contribute something to any compilation. so let them have fun while they can.
i’m glad to find similar opinions on Thunderbird UI!
omg, the part of donations didn’t happen to me, i think. maybe there was an option to disable it and i used it, or maybe i didn’t use Thunderbird enough to make those tabs pop out on my browser.
I hope this doesn’t happen often to you, because it looks as annoying as Outlook ads. i understand the Mozilla Foundation needs money but…
yes, if i find another email client that looks good, i will share it. my focus on the search would be: FOSS and simple UI.
thanks, pal!
hello! thank you for replying!
um… no, i don’t use advanced features at all.
but this part of your message: “i only use a smart fraction of Thunderbird’s capabilities”, made my mind click, as it’s totally what i feel as an ‘intended’ Thunderbird user.
for me, it feels like there are too many options, too many menus, too many buttons. it’s easy for me to feel overwhelmed or distracted by the UI.
i wonder if there’s some “compact UI” mode i haven’t checked out, as i am a very basic email user. for me, Outlook simpleness was perfect, aside from the ads and stupid things like not being able to write an “@” (on an email client!).
hello, i tried changing from Outlook to Thunderbird some months ago, but i found the UI very confusing and complex. does any of you feel the same?
is there some way to simplify the UI to make it look more like Outlook with no ad crap? i tried looking for UI addons, but aside of dark mode, i didn’t find one.
would you guys recomend a FOSS email client that you feel comfortable with?
thank you for reading!
that’s very sad, i’m sorry.
one may feel unsupported because others don’t have enough courage to leave Reddit, leaving you alone with this, which perhaphs is more difficult than moderating r/Piracy without mods.
Might even feel outrageous if they joined later only in case Lemmy is a success thanks to the people here, but i don’t know.
i find you people very brave and forward-looking, thank you all for your effort <3
i wonder if we will end using personal webpages with FOSS/affordable domains and integration to forums and video platforms, just to avoid some crazy CEO screwing our content again.
i think social media was good, but we gave the CEOs too much power over our content and accounts.
so… we went from “social media is where society creates media” to “social media is where tech CEO’s control and keep society’s media hostage”.
aa, thank you for replying and confirming! :)
Hello, I apologize for not realizing about the problems around the use of the term ‘female’, thanks for explaining.
Yesterday, I just learnt about Feminine autism after a neuropsychologist mentioned it to me. He said ‘feminine’, because of the gender-cultured reasons contributing to underdiagnosis in women and LGBTIQ individuals too.
That’s the reason I am doing my best to understand by reading in communities as r/AutismInWomen, and noticing the need for safe spaces due to issues with the male autistic community.
Still, I just would like to note that some individuals new to minority-based communities may be new to the language on itself and have this double struggle with social interactions leading to “double exclusion” in certain situations, e.g. in the LGBTIQ+ community.
I promise my intentions are not bad, but I can struggle for hours to communicate a simple idea effectively and still do an epic fail. Sorry.
