“Is your therapist a chat bot?”
sparkles
Hey!
I’m new to piefed. I was a part of the Reddit migration originally. Since then, I really enjoyed the conversations.
I’m a behavior therapist by day. Otherwise a bit of an introvert/gamer. I’m always up for a conversation. Unless I’m asleep, which is earlier and earlier these days.

Having allergies prob saved me from experiencing less socially acceptable recreations. I still have a Benadryl from time to time. For my allergies.

I make one grocery trip a week so I’m not dealing with all that.

5·3 days agoLove cherry blossoms. Thankfully we have lots of them and crabapples in New England. Beautiful and makes the early spring tolerable.
I knew some with dead parents, a few in jail, a couple “call the police on sight” and plenty of abandonment… Life really isn’t fucking fair. I know it is a joke but it definitely is a privileged one.

I don’t post there anymore but the only time it felt like I was talking to real people was on my small state sub. That’s the only reason I even lurk. Since I’m banned from Facebook it’s the only place to get the tea.
Oh absolutely. My industry is has a big shortage in practitioners.
My current company was kind enough to give a dropdown menu of reasons. I just chose one, no questions were asked.
I can afford an attic??
I always imagined the potions in stories would taste more earthy gross than chemically refined gross but that is why this is the bad place, isn’t it?

71·11 days agoTruthfully the armpit and surrounding areas are my “never again” spot. Ribs tickled, elbow made me sneeze. I hear this varies a lot from person to person.
I don’t know the meme, but I can tell you a lot of people bottle. If we’re taking off our jewelry, for example, that’s a precursor/signal that the consequences no longer outweigh the motivation to engage in dangerous escalation.

44·18 days ago“We just kind of struggle a little bit to see how allowing community colleges to offer four-year baccalaureate degrees is our best use of those finite education dollars we have in the state,” Obradovich said“
Idk dude maybe increase the dollars rather than try to funnel all the low income or cost conscious learners into 1-2 donor approved fields?
Meh. I’m more into big juicy brains. Not in a zombie way. Outside appearance is not relevant other than hygiene.

Technology@beehaw.org•ChatGPT wrote “Goodnight Moon” suicide lullaby for man who later killed himselfEnglish
21·22 days agoPeople seeking ai “help” is really troubling. They are already super vulnerable…it is not an easy task to establish rapport and build relationships of trust especially as providers, who will dig into these harmful issues. It’s hard stuff. The bot will do…whatever the user wants. There is no fiduciary duty to their well-being. There is no humanity nor could there be.
There is also a shortage of practitioners, combined with insurance gatekeeping care if you are in the US. This is yet another barrier to legitimate care that I fear will continue to push people to use bots.



I play as women. I find the models more attractive and the voice acting pleasant. Not in a sexual way, I just don’t like male models and voices. They don’t give a whole lot of variety which is unfair. Male night elves in wow could at least have pretty hair but their shoulders were massive so nope.
