Yeah I’m a real person, the name is just a reference to getting banned on Reddit many times, and then getting banned immediately across several discuss.online communities for hurting a mod’s feelings. I guess if it’s going to happen, might as well ask for it.

    OMG is this accurate.

    I have quit all of my vices, from meth to cigarettes, and finally did away with weed.

    Now I like who I am without weed - less anxiety, more in control, more ambitious, etc.

    But I like being high almost more than that.

    So I guess I’m going to buy a bag of weed once a month or something, get the best of both worlds? Or the worst IDK

    Astonishing how often I see someone start swatting at a paper wasp when it gets curious.

    The fuck? It’s like a dog smelling you, but that dog has a stinger. You don’t swat at the fucking thing. You chill out and act real casual. Maybe pretend you didn’t even notice it. What wasp? I didn’t see any wasps. Now check my back so we can get our asses inside.

    Yay came here for this. I was all excited to start a couple of beehives in my back yard. Then I discovered their lineage and what they’re doing to the native bees. Instead I realized I am hosting tons of huge ass bumblebees in my yard, and I’ll just let them be(e). Maybe get some of those bee houses for solitary bees instead.





  • Just tell them you don’t want it and they will almost certainly accommodate. Most therapists are still trying to get a sense of the tool and how their patients will feel about it, they won’t be looking to fire patients over it.

    I’ve been looking at the SimplePractice tool as I am IT guy for a couple of therapy clinics, plus my own therapist wanted a guinea pig. I am not thrilled by the terms of service, which allow the company to do whatever they want internally with your data. But the tool is legit useful for therapists (it’s to help them justify your ongoing care to your insurance company, who wants specifics on the how but not the what you’re discussing. The therapist winds up reviewing the summarization before it’s sent to the insurance company. It won’t affect your care. The LLM is supposed to be HIPAA compliant, but I am really curious about how that works.

    I am looking more at on-device models for the future. Notetaking is a big burden for therapists, who often wind up keeping multiple versions of your notes: one for you (you have the right to request them), one for insurance which is coded to their treatment plans, one for the court or judge if there’s a divorce or other proceeding involved. One for the parent if it’s a teenager. So a tool like this has the real power to cut back on a therapist’s weekend admin time. There’s just no reason it can’t be a local model. A Mac Mini sitting in the corner, with a mic input switch for clients who don’t want it on.

    AA taught me to pray to myself, because I am the only god (creative force) who is along for the journey in my headspace. It’s actually incredibly effective. Determination setting. We use the word “god” a lot and get so caught up in what it must mean according to large groups, and we lose focus on what it means on an individual scale, which is where recovery happens.

    The tip is to find a group full of angry atheists because then you get to use the whole hour unpacking religious trauma and bashing the church while you reclaim these words for yourself - “god,” that’s your word.
