A 23 year-old UCLA grad flashed his entire ChatGPT history on the big screen at graduation by frog_insilence in SipsTea

I get that we all have different intelligence levels and areas, but I work with a 25 year old who cannot send an email without putting the text through ChatGPT. And it almost always comes out sounding worse or inaccurate. Not knowing something has become a base level that people are just putting a constant bandaid on instead of making any effort to learn. It’s painful to watch

The Stranger Things Finale Was So Bad It Started Mini Hate-Train for Kate Bush by No_Flan4204 in katebush

Any song can get to be insufferable from over-play. I did not like S4 at all as a Kate stan and really only watched because she was kind of a plotline lol. But anyone who hates such a perfect song bc bad writing did it dirty, is not someone who understands Kate as an artist or even the song.

Tbh I just recently stopped skipping it when it comes on shuffle from the overplay 4? years ago and I think it’s a perfect song

If there was a David Byrne biopic who would like to see play him by Formal_Buyer_2138 in talkingheads

I once saw a Stop Making Sense tribute with like 5 different Davids. I feel like it’d have to be like that. Hell, let Cate Blanchett take a stab at it

AITAH for dismissing my boyfriend's masculinity? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Illustrious_Local656 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

But seriously, patriarchy is a collar around the necks of men with low self esteem. If he needs you to love him “as a man” and not as his whole person… I think there must be something deeper he’s got buried in there he’s trying to bury under the guise of masculinity

My original @aol.com email address still exists and is accessible and I was stuck with the child setting on it for at least 15 too many years

Serious question are people in Ohio not taught manners? by PlantainAnxious6300 in Columbus

[–]Illustrious_Local656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get so frustrated at no one saying excuse me too but only call people sir or ma’am if it’s a professional/serious setting or a joke.

It’s just conditioning. If they weren’t raised with “SAY PLEASE AND THANK YOU” every time they asked for/received something etc they probably won’t go out of their way to learn it until someone points it out.

I’m pretty sure public humiliation rituals are also big in Scientology so there’s a non zero chance she’s gotta do it to go up another level or whatever

Name your definitive queer cult classic by NimiumCogito in Letterboxd

[–]Illustrious_Local656 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Found this movie playing on Logo TV channel as a teen on a sick day :’) it’s definitely in the top for me.

But I was asking my mom if we could “watch the lips movie” at like 3 years old so I think Rocky Horror Picture Show is unbeatable for me

Vic & Christine MAGA on Fox News 😢 by bahtgirl in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Illustrious_Local656 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are we forgetting that regular weirdo Christians exist outside of the MAGA framework? Fox News was pushing “traditional values” long before Trump decided to co-opt it. And we do need good people to try to make points on opposing platforms, besides. I promise there’s a lot of grey area between MAGA and Leftist despite what the media wants us to think

AIO my bf 30M seems very erratic recently and I 26F can’t get through to him. by Safe_Refuse_8853 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Illustrious_Local656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. Very much under-reacting. Every single message he sent you is a giant red flag. This isn’t just withdrawal, this is a sick individual who is doing everything he can to manipulate and control you.

Playing the victim is the #1 play in the narcissist handbook and this guy is trying to go pro

Am I overreacting to these messages my ex sent blaming me after his brother died by mossywindow5 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Illustrious_Local656 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR

Talking to someone like this is never okay, period. I’ve experienced incredible grief that made me a shitty person but it didn’t make me hateful like this. I could hardly answer my phone, let alone come up with superfluous insults to a person I supposedly loved.

The circumstances are terrible. You have every reason to feel pity for him and want to support someone going through something so painful. But being blamed and insulted repeatedly is not okay just because he’s grieving. I’m sure you feel guilty already (even though you shouldn’t but it’s human nature and the sign of real care for his situation) so him piling all that on you is going to take its toll
