one funny thing they say on empath tiktok is "npd is what creates bpd". personality disorder family tree goes crazy

[serial-unaliver-deactivated2024]

this is the full family tree

npd npd

bpd bpd

aspd

explanation: the bpd child developed substance abuse issues, then once it grew up and had its own child; the child was taken by CPS and developed conduct disorder due to the trauma, later leading to an aspd diagnosis. other bpd child faked their death

Hey so if "I hope you get exploded with hammers" or whatever is enough to get not only get just one account permanently deleted but to get every new account you make permanently deleted, wiping an entire person past present and future off of the site, does that mean that all harrassment meeting and surpassing the same comically low level is now retroactively a permabanable offense, and therefore every fucking terf on this god damn site that's ever left even a single hate message should have their entire existence past present and future wiped from tumblr? Just checking if there's a transphobic (and transmisogynistic) double standard or not @photomatt, since you're so convinced that tumblrs transphobia is just misinformation

On July 10th of 2023 I got an email on tumblr regarding a neo-nazi I randomly spotted and reported was not violating community guidelines with his comments towards another user and therefore no action would be taken.

This led to me asking this in reply, including a direct quote of what the neo-nazi said.

[Image reads: "How is saying you want your job to be "liquidating faggots like you two" not against hate speech rules or community guidelines? Like, can you explain that to me please?"]

I never got an answer.

One small but extremely annoying effect of Tech Modernization or w/e is how UI contrast is garbage anymore, especially just, like, application windows in general.

"Ooh our scrollbar expands when you mouse over it! Or does it? Only you can know by sitting there like an idiot for 3 seconds waiting for it to expand, only to move your cursor away just as it does so!" or Discord's even more excellent "scrollbar is 2 shades off of the background color and is one (1) pixel wide" fuck OFF

I tried to move a system window around yesterday and had to click 3 times before I got the half of the upper bar that let me drag it. Why are there two separate bars with absolutely nothing to visually differentiate them on that.

"Well if you look closely-" I should not!! have to squint!!! at the screen for a minute straight to detect basic UI elements!! Not mention how ableist this shit is, and for what? ~✨Aesthetic✨~?

and then every website and app imitates this but in different ways so everything is consistently dogshit to try to use but not always in ways you can immediately grok it's!!!! terrible!!!! just put lines on things again I'm begging you!!!!

I know I sound like a broken record when I praise Windows 95 UI, but holy fuck Microsoft figured this shit out already about 30 years ago. It's all there, black and white, clear as christmas:

So much of modern UX woes stem from not knowing, or intentionally ignoring the genuine design study put forth into GUIs in the 90s.

3D elements are 3D in a specific way with lighting from a specific side to make it obvious where a window element begins and ends.

The gradient always should from from one side, and keep it consistent.

Make your color shading and shape of scroll bars consistently side and easy to press. I have a 4K display, don't make me hunt for the magic activation pixel that makes your 3-pixel wide scroll bar appear.

It's a desktop application, I've got the screen real estate to spare to have the actual GUI elements present on screen at all times (I know, heresy).

The moment aesthetic takes precedence over form and function, you've failed as a UI designer.

And any argument about "we don't have the resolution" can go right out the window, we were having nice, clear and legible interface widgets on nine inch screens in 1984. We continued to have nice, clear and legible interfaces on machines vastly less powerful than today's and on screens vastly less pixel-dense than today's. We used to know what the hell we were doing. At least one of these examples even has on-screen instructions in case the widgets functionality isn't immediately apparent.

[weaselsblaugh]

since this has come back to my dashboard again i want to call attention to one more thing that these GUIs have that modern ones don't even try to do.

RESIZE WIDGETS.

Do you tire of trying to grab and resize a window whose border is literally only 1 pixel wide?

Do you see how large the corner widgets are in those clips above? Those are at least 16x16 pixels. They're almost as large as the Close buttons on a modern GUI. If you can see the bottom right corner of your window, resizing it is a snap. You can aim much more easily at a 16x16 widget than you can at a one-pixel-wide vertical line.

OK, maybe technically Windows' borders are wider than 1 pixel. They're technically 3 pixels. That is still just really goddamn tiny compared to 16 of them.

We used to be a society. Look at this. Look at this.

WINDOWS FUGGIN' 95 HAD THE CORNER WIDGET. Why the hell can't Windows 11?

your art has improved so much since the last time i saw it (not that it was ever bad!) -sailor

ksksksk thanks sm sailor!!! ive been drawing a lot more recently and im starting to feel a lot better abt it, so this means a lot ^-^

[dudlesdoodles]

so, this is kinda bad bc i havent been feeling super inspired or motivated lately??? to do anything ahhhh but i wanted to draw somehting having to do with someone in a circle/bubble thing. and then i remembered a drawing of an angel i did on the back of one of my sketchbooks last year-ish and wanted to do something kinda like that

its not exactly like the one on my sketchbook, and its not super good compared to other stuff ive done, but i like it. its... peaceful 

[dudlesdoodles]

sooooo this is a thing i made based off of a prompt site :0

the prompt i got was “Draw a bug, burly, bashful lumberjack” 

Btw Kunal and Bryony are both flowers so thats where the middle and last names came from skksks

and i just felt like he looked like a Benjamin so

[admiralexclipse]

alright im gonna say it :/  big and defined noses are extremely fucking good and can easily center facial shape and add interest to a face the way a button nose cannot. and if you do not agree you are firstly my enemy and secondly a coward
