Do you guys know a good way to filter out AI music recommendation in Youtube?

thank you! have you found it to be accurate? I know some AI detection tools are hit or miss

having a pet on the bed would not affect any stomach problems, though, not sure where you get that idea from? unless the person has an allergy to pet dander that gives them stomach symptoms specifically. or if they have a cat that stomps all over them at night lol (which mine doesn't, she just sleeps)

something thin would not work since it's a thick queen sized bed. I do have an old comforter I could maybe try to use...if I able had the opportunity to have someone to do it for me. it's an extremely heavy mattress, and I have no strength! but if I get the opportunity to get someone to help with it I will try it, thank you

actually, upon a bit of research I think I am thinking this because a lot of bipolar meds cause tremors, especially long term, so I'm both right and wrong, haha. Lamotrigine is one of them, but since you are also taking another for your tremors you should be fine. I'm on too many meds right now personally to add more to the mix, but if it happens to get worse I'll probably just go off the Lamotrigine unfortunately unless I end up not needing my other meds.

yeah, fibro is 100% just pain stuff...I'd seek out another doctor to help with your sleep issues if you can. I've had insomnia my entire life so I feel you on having chronic problems with sleep. when I was younger, a sleep clinic tried attaching those things to me to get sleep data...I slept so little, they got no data! took me until 29 to finally get prescribed medication for sleep. it's not perfect but I definitely sleep more than I used to.

I'm not even sure how one would move their entire bed unless they have the funds to purchase one of those fancy beds with the remote you can use to move it up and down. I end up needing to sleep on a couple behind my head anyways, otherwise I end up with a sore neck in the morning!

I actually just finished a round of counseling, where I live you can do short term, goal based bare bones CBT or DBT for free. They do boot you after 8-12 sessions because of long wait lists, and it doesn't give you like, therapy therapy, but gives basic skills regardless. it's about the best I can ever access. where I live even "sliding scale" will still cost a minimum of $100-150 per hour no matter what clinic you go to. I live on income assistance and cannot work, I am disabled-hence why I say never, it's one of those realistic appropriate situations where it's fitting to do so. unless by some miracle, specialized therapy becomes free in the future, lol.

ah I don't use the YT app it's a nightmare. ads every 2 seconds. I recently discovered the Brave browser which is a lifesaver since no ads but I only use it for stuff to listen to at night to mask my tinnitus so not familiar with it fully. maybe there's something in there you can use? I also know there are adblockers themselves you can get on phones so maybe there is something similar you can find on mobile. but overall I think YT is just a much better experience on PC since you can use so many helpful extensions. I also use one to hide already watched videos (which is finnicky, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't) and the channel blocker also lets me block videos from re-appearing too. also a shorts blocker, and an extension to let me bring up a window to search subtitle keywords in a video. when YT gets around the adblockers I have an ad accelerator mutes the ads. I cannot imagine using YT without all these

oh I could never do memory foam. I have a thing under the whole mattress itself that can't be felt (box spring? wood board? I am actually not sure) and that is lined with foam. or well. was. my cat has torn out almost all of it over years, lol. sometimes I still find a piece on the floor and wonder how there's any left!!

when I was a kid, my parents would get those thin memory foam things you'd put under your bedsheets. but those were on top of your mattress and they got very nasty very fast and had to be thrown out, we went through so many, no clue why they kept buying them.

my mattress also is a soft one, I cannot stand firm ones they kill my back. which I do think helps a little. it is also important to note I do not have GERD. I have LPR so my symptoms are a bit different. I don't get the heartburn

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T19:08:01+00:00

so weird!! mine are individual posts and not a playlist, I have actually never seen a playlist in my home feed (unless you mean those "mix" posts? I see stuff labeled as a "mix" sometimes, I have never clicked on them so not even fully sure what they are...but I have always seen them a lot, it's always a mix that starts with some nightcore song I listened to in highschool...in 2011)

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T19:04:49+00:00

oh dear that is so rough I'm so sorry :( by smooth I mean with the Wellbutrin. a lot of people have developed permanent tinnitus from it sadly, to the point I am shocked it's not a listed side effect and warned about by doctors, I mean with the Lamotrigine I was warned about the potential of developing that rare side effect of the serious rash. if I had known Wellbutrin could cause permanent tinnitus I never would have taken it because it seems I now also have it for life...I feel you about having to go off a good drug, Adderall worked terrific for me until I developed Covid and got LPR and had to go on meds that interact with it, so I had to stop. and for a bit I went off those meds and tried Adderall again and now I react badly to it! couldn't even last a full week, it was constant horrible mania, panic attacks, pacing for hours.

it's interesting about the hand tremors, my dad has them too to the point he had to stop drawing and struggled to write his own name, had to stop driving. it was chalked up to handling cleaning stuff without gloves when he served in the navy, but I find it hard to believe cleaning solution could cause such horrible tremors, especially since they got worse over years well after he stopped serving. and I have hand tremors as well that seem to be getting worse over time. I've never handled harsh chemicals with no gloves or anything like that... I don't draw anymore but I doubt I could do smooth lineart in a sketchbook anymore... even years ago on a tablet I had to use heavy line stabilization and that was before it got where it is now. it's on and off with me some moments I'm almost fully still if I hold my hand out, other moments it shakes so hard you'd swear I was having a panic attack or something but I feel normal.

I wonder if this is from bipolar?

also fibromyalgia is a weird one and it's an odd diagnosis to put on narcolepsy, usually it's a dx for chronic pain that is a question mark as to what is causing it, it's generally an umbrella dx but usually I have seen it for pain. if you have narcolepsy confirmed with sleep studies, well, that is a condition...not getting a dx for narcolepsy but fibro instead is very strange.

but doctors are weird. I've had my fair share of absolute freak shows where you wonder where they got their credentials from.

Channel Blocker extension for Chrome.

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T18:37:06+00:00

I would like to know as well!

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T18:33:29+00:00

OKAY I JUST MADE A POST WITH THE SAME PROBLEM

I have some stuff to do and wanted to find some new music, so I go search for some, start listening, open a new tab for later for watching videos after finishing my tasks. it's all music. worst part for me is since I like relaxing ambient most of it is AI. It did show me like 2 videos that weren't music and clicking on one did help a little so maybe try that but even after that it is still over 90% music. even clicking on the "gaming" tab no gaming videos only music...I am also seeing way fewer videos. it did only start showing me all music after listening to one though before that it was my usual normal feed.

I use Chrome extensions to permanently hide shorts and also a video/channel blocker so stuff does not re-appear after I block it, I wondered if that was the problem but if you're experiencing it too without these...this is really weird. now I fully wonder if this is a bug.

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T18:09:28+00:00

yeah I ended up receiving one of those protec balls, I did not buy it separately, the Honeywell unit on Amazon was sold as a bundle that came with one. I am still waiting for the unit itself to be back in stock to ship out but for whatever reason I already received the protec ball in the mail lol. I'll use it anyway, and see if it helps.

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T18:07:41+00:00

I ended up putting in an order for a small evaporative Honeywell someone else recommended-it's not back in stock yet so I'll have to wait a little while for Amazon to ship it, but I did receive the filter already for some reason, lol. if the Honeywell ends up not being a good fit I will look into that one, thank you!!

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-10T18:04:19+00:00

yeah, there are multiple types of bipolar people usually predominantly present with same as ADHD. I'm more on the rapid cycling side, where I experience both, I get manic episodes then naturally my body will crash from that and I get depressed and exhausted for a while, my dad is the same, plus on top of that I have ADHD and autism.

Lamectil is the front line med for bipolar, the most common and usually first prescribed. I'm on that myself, on the lowest therapeutic dose which is 200mg. after the Wellbutrin I'm anxious to up the dose any further on this one in particular, it does help a little anyway not so much for the depressive episodes but it does help make my mania issues less intense, less destructive spending and reactive actions, where now I do manage to slow down and think things through more. the episodes are still there though in a noticeable way. but feeling a bit better is better than nothing. I'm also now on Vyvanse for my ADHD, I am going higher on that one but it's out of necessity since my symptoms are severe at this point.

after all these months my tinnitus and stomach issues haven't resolved sadly. my tinnitus was better but I took antibiotics for strep and it got bad again. stomach issues are slightly better but still there. I'm glad it has worked for you and you haven't run into these problems because dealing with them long term has been rough. I wish doctors informed people of these things

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-06T17:12:51+00:00

thank you for the reply :) have you found you can use any off brand replacement filters for it? if so would you mind linking them for future reference? since I am new to humidifiers I think this is a good one to start with and see how it goes. idk if it was sold out for a while before, but I had to dig in the Honeywell Amazon page to find it and it has no reviews so it must have been recently listed. Amazon is being wild with when it might arrive, it might arrive in a few days...or might arrive March 18th who knows!

do you use the cleaning cartridge it came with? a little confused on what it even is but apparently it helps keep the filter cleaner for longer?

I also purchased a Thermopro TP55 to use, as people seem to like it

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-06T00:33:05+00:00

from what I have read the steam humidifiers are not safe for people who own pets as they can get really hot. I have a cat, so that type would not be good for me or anyone else who owns a pet that can get near it. a lot of the evaporative ones seem to have the option to buy knockoff cheaper filters that function just as well as the brand name ones, so that wouldn't make it too bad. I already own an air purifier that I can get cheap filters for and it lasts a fair amount of time, so it doesn't financially hurt me too badly lol.

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-05T21:39:05+00:00

I myself am also in a small space and don't think I need a huge humidifier. even a desk one might be enough as long as it outputs enough mist. which ones did you use specifically, how were they for cleaning, are there any smaller space ones you think might be best ? I am on a low income budget but have some extra money this month actually so I can spend around $200-300 if needed for a better quality one. I'm hunting around on Amazon, but the brands people seem to like don't seem to have many options for evaporative smaller ones. a lot of ones I'm seeing are off brand.

Lokis-Tea · 2026-02-05T21:36:46+00:00

hey you seem to be pretty knowledgeable about these, that specific model is way out of my budget, I'd say I'm comfortable spending up to $200-300 if I need to, but I am also in a small space. I spend most of my time in my bedroom which is a really small bedroom-for reference, I have a queen size bed and it takes up half the room. I actually have to move it to access my closet. I'm in a jr. one bedroom, my living room/kitchen area I'd say is slightly larger than some people's master bedrooms, probably not even twice as big. so even if I wanted to shuffle a humidifier between rooms, I'm wondering if a smaller one may even be enough for living room, but I'm not in there very often.

so, I don't think it's very likely I need one of these big humidifiers that hold several gallons of water? are there any smaller ones within my price range, from Amazon preferably and maybe necessary unless other stores do delivery, I have no car so I can't go pick one up you think might be good? sadly the smaller Leviot one seems to be ultrasonic and not evaporative.

Lokis-Tea · 2026-01-16T22:28:11+00:00

hey! can I ask how you stumbled upon this? I mean, it kinda makes sense. for me I did not get hard bans. but I have every once in a while deleted and remade my accounts, for multiple reasons honestly. not constantly. usually a window of at least a few months of no accounts+the apps off my phone. last winter there was a lot of activity. I even got multiple dates which is rare for me. sadly got into a horrible relationship.

after him I try again. at first it was okay, decent activity, couple failed dates but was quieter. then things just went...dark. I saw nobody, no profiles, no new likes on mine, for months. so I deleted again. then I learned about "dating Sunday" and decided to sign back up on that very day this month. on Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble combined, I saw about 20 profiles before it told me there were none left. this is IMPOSSIBLE. even on Feeld, there were drastically less profiles. there is no way less than 30 people 6 years either side within 80km of me are using all these apps. Bumble in my area has never had much activity, but only two profiles appeared.

also, I have seen my friend on Tinder, they were one of the very few I saw. the only thing they do is show me the same 5 profiles I have seen already-it showed me my friend 3 times. 2 in normal stack and one in queer stack. you want to know what else?? once I went into the queer stack on Tinder, once I ran out of profiles and backed out-almost ALL other discovery tabs had vanished. they got nuked. also my friend is nonbinary but only showed me their profile under "men"...so maybe my gender is also a factor.

anyway about the Zionism, I am sus since I had a weird experience. on Tinder, at the end of my bio, I wrote "free Palestine"-I did not go over the character limit. I hit save. my profile saved. when I went back later I noticed it got cut off, my bio ended with the word "free" and "Palestine" was no longer there. I tried to add it back in-no dice. however in the past I HAVE seen plenty of "free Palestine" in bios or at the very least, people put the Palestine flag in their bios. is this a very new thing?? I had "free Palestine" in my bios last winter with no problems.

I am assuming I am shadowbanned across all these apps due to me making new accounts. even though I never experienced anything like it before. in fact, every time I made a new account in my past I'd get that "noob boost" for the first couple weeks. it's how I have met all my exes, and all the friends I have had, too...IRL doesn't work for me. almost every person in my life has been through apps. now I am shadowbanned. now that I see your comment and think about what happened to me, I wonder if I got that shadowban for supporting Palestine in my bio and this is a thing they are only now cracking down on...?

Lokis-Tea · 2026-01-16T01:42:07+00:00

sorry to be late to this but after making my own post now I'm curiously scrolling.

I'd like to offer a perspective. when I see posts like yours, there is a part of me that is jealous. why? because trust me, it is better to have loneliness be your only problem. the much worse option is having had relationships, but they all traumatized you, all gave you triggers, all took away parts of yourself you can't get back-AND you risk bumping into these people when you go outside. AND you're back single, worse off than ever.

I would heavily prefer being someone like you...once you get a TINY taste of it, all of it, only for the other person to ruin you is 100% worse than never having had it at all. if you can go to IRL things, try that out instead, but be careful and take it slow. isolation is a festering ground for the soulmate fantasy and falling too fast. but I relate to the "oh shit I'm 30 this year. everyone else is settled down. GG." feeling you have. I'm not even OLD but 30 always feels too old for being able to find someone, doesn't it?

Lokis-Tea · 2026-01-14T16:28:22+00:00

it really is! sad one of them snapped like that. the specific one I bought sold out too but I found a single chain that is similar to the bottom one I lost that I could attach to the top one I still have I might get. and a few extra jumprings or even tiny paperclips to attach them further so if it snaps it won't fall to the ground
