i feel similarly about people using llms for "therapy." like yeah it sucks and the people doing it dont actually know what therapy is, but also if youre at the point where youre relying on a chatbot for emotional processing and mental health advice then your support network is probably really bad.

theres also the issue where therapy is only an hour (bi-)weekly and costs too much for the most vulnerable populations and if you use insurance you have to be diagnosed with something to get the sessions covered which could end up causing problems down the road. some people would benefit from more frequent/intensive outpatient care but good luck getting anything like that today. meanwhile chatgpt is available 24/7 for free.

even under socialized healthcare, theres never going to be enough therapists for everyone who needs it (without horribly overworking them and thus reducing the quality of care for everyone) so idk what to say. a lot of peoples struggles could be mitigated if they actually had families and communities that were attentive to each other.

i aint ur average democrat. one time, i let a camera crew film me shooting guns for a campaign ad. and i played dreamcast on aoc's twitch stream that one time. i also have an extremely problematic tattoo that you won't discover until the primaries are just 2 weeks away and its too late to find someone else. im just your average, hard working dude who believes in common sense and talking to folk where theyre at.

The microscopic bunnies acknowledge you were probably joking but they decided to take your threat seriously as a precaution and already returned to their space ships and left the planet before I could even say good bye!!! Duck you!!!

its genuinely tripping me out. we dont even know of any aliens yet and we just assume they're terrible but it actually reveals how untrustworthy humans are that this is the default mode of thinking. it is our shadow. I do not think this is considered normal in the universe.

the microscopic bunnies want to know why all of our stories about conflict. they dont understand and they say its not a thing where they're from. they like to hear how drops of water fall between leaves. their highest rated "movie" (they probably dont have eyes) is about one of their kind finding and eating the tastiest "carrot" (they probably dont have carrots) in the world. its quite a triumphant affair. they watched people lose at the olympics and they found it extremely "depressing" (they probably dont have the neurochemistry to develop depression).

humans are just kind of fucked up and it explains why ive been so sad and miserable all my life. this is yet another reason to support the plurbs. I need to find a group of extremely kind individuals and we all work together to escape this horrible cycle of samsara.
