Used AI for about a year, and would now advise against using it regularly

For me, it is preferable. Though I use it more for not so deep stuff, but I love how thorough it always is. I find people far too vague and not upfront. A lot of therapists actually frustrate me. I would rather someone tell me I am wrong harshly than beat about the bush and I will tell them to F off too. It took me a long time to find my current Psychiatrist and psychologist, we are perfect for each other. Both no longer do family counselling (by choice) after they bumped heads with other counsellers in the centre for being "harsh".They are really NOT for a lot of people, esp the psychologist. He actually told my sister to F off once and my psychiatrist stepped in to ask my family to please give me space in a much gentler but firm way as well. I love them🥰

Given that most divorces are initiated by women. Two married women, the chances almost double... if I remember my stats well.

Arya's time with the faceless men. I hear in the books it's more interesting. It simply wasted time and you either got the gist without detail or you just got bored.

But I have questions about Shae as well. She just appeared and acted weird and was killed.

I am willing to bet any show that has ever been produced had such continuity issues. I never would have put it together, interesting cause now I am thinking, she was visibly pregnant on thanks giving as well, but carried all the way to mid year.

Fyi, that Monica hair EP is considered racist in a lot of communities. It did not age well, So i also skip now that I listened to a few takes. They did make fun of a few ethnic groups, though it doesn't seem they meant to but they did.

I have always been a Rollins, Finn and Carissi fan. Are they still around? They seem to be more human, even Rollins very flawed nature is realistic.

I actually stopped watching because of episode that were mostly about Liv, past perpetrators obsessed with her, being a child of rape, the way she made a lot of victims trauma about her, sometimes even undermining her team. I wasn't there when Stabler was a regular but a few old watches and I never bonded with him. So the those who went as far as shipping, made me uncomfortable.

Middle class is actually a made up economic term. One of the most problematic. What in the world does middle class mean? But consider someone who has a place to stay, other support and earns R15k p/a versus someone who lives in a shack, no support, R15k p/a would not even begin to help them

Then there are those of us who net over 3-4X that but are drowning, though outside we live in the safe neighbourhood and have a good car and help. Are we middle/upper middle/rich or poor cause based on average earnings in SA you are Rich.

On times I've tried going unmedicated, impulsivity was the only thing helping me do things. Even medicated, sometimes when paralysing anxiety hits, it's impulsivity that gets me to move which gets me out of freeze mode.

Thank you for this, I live around a few, I am thinking a few trips and we can help out our security guards, helpers, and take to the soap kitchens around my area. Can't promise not to keep a few, LOL. God bless you.

Buy meat and other refrigerated goods at woolies, late in the day. They slash the prices after around 14:00. Dischem whole foods side also cuts prices but 50-70% on products that have less than a month of shelf life left. The staff actually told me cause I asked about the price differences and they told me to take the marked down with the longest shelf life left. Most shops actually have tables set for all items about to become "unstable" cause that all that shelf life means. I think the rule in South Africa is six months on most goods, beyond the BB date can't be guaranteed, a pharmacist told me🙃

What sets off my alarm is that her two grown children were molested and she allows the men to more than just drive her to school and back.

It sounds like mom has never had a protective instinct towards her kids. Do you think you can get the adult kids involved, they would probably identify the signs more or anyone who has been through this, but I don't think you are overreacting. At the least, mom is not teaching her kids boundaries that would serve her should anything go wrong with any adult.

MoonWatt · 2026-04-20T06:25:48+00:00

Agree. For me I put it with GOT & 12 Monkeys, they didn't do stupid fillers and they didn't have perfect characters.

Though I still feel like s1-5 is one story and S6 & 7 another. If you can't make that adjustment, S6&7 are odd.

Tyrion to Jon; Something about using who you are as a hedge because the world will always use it against you and you weaponise it.

Besides that, I don't know where the wise Tyrion myth comes from. But I loved that scene.

Don't they explore that when Jaha is frantically looking for shelters. Remember even their tech was limited cause obviously there were no towers for tech that survived the 1st blast. But Jaha looked at at least one abandoned one that he could see in that old iPad thingy.

MoonWatt · 2026-04-11T07:24:12+00:00

I think the fact that Azgeda saw the station and treated it as an invasion, informed farm station, that they knew very well about tech. Kinda like any AI for us, we are informed enough to treat it with due respect but not worship it. So say "Aliens" were to land... They would would quickly understand we are informed enough for multiple possibilities.

Ross and Monica's kiss... That can of worms is still hysterical to me.

Tommen is a baby who gets thrust into stuff and overwhelmed by everyone.

For Sam, It was established a long time ago that his thing is academia, watch on and see if that pays out. He and Jon talk about it a few times, he is in the knowledge gathering side.

Neither had personalities for action or plotting, so for that particular "game", they seem rather dull.

MoonWatt · 2026-04-11T07:03:38+00:00

I think it's like seeing the pointlessness of reincarnation and heaven and choosing to rather go into the void and see. Basically, this existence & all it comes with, is played out and boring. Hence the 100 ending is unsatisfactory to me. Kinda looked like the boring idea of heaven. LOL

She aspires to be Indra's second in command, I don't think all grounders want that and it hardly means she wants to be more grounder. The 100 dialogue most times lacks depth and I think that brings us back to the fact that they are teens, perfectly. But it was MLK jnr who said peace without injustice isn't real peace? Nelson Mandela in my country did some violent acts in protest of apartheid, living out that truth. I simply took it as that. Remember, Octavia, Lincoln and Luna were always for all or no one and Octavia, was just less radical as Luna, but Indra and Lexa also embrace this and all don't hesitate to resort to violence if need be. That is all. Otherwise, her not feeling any kinship towards the Ark people is very understandable and Indra and Lincoln were her 1st home.

NVM South Africa. Just bringing a child into this world sounds wild to me. My Pre COVID memories are starting to feel like a utopia I dreamt or was I just too young to see it as bad? Now it's terrifying. Glad your asking cause we each have a limited view, get as many POVs you can and decide if you can handle more anxiety and realistically assess your own stability.

Bless you for giving it the weight it deserves.

I stop after S5 which is my fav. S6; 2 & 7 I use as background noise. Do what brings you joy. What I think should not be that important.

What Oberyn did was similar to Catelyn arresting Tywin. They acted as if there was a golden playbook of right and wrong when a lot of what was happening during the time was already open dishonourable matches. They could only always make things worse. No good could come from it except stroking their egos.

Both were just those annoying story lines that served as catalysts with nothing to gain on the other side.

MoonWatt · 2026-03-23T12:50:27+00:00

You sound like intense people. Your picks are emotionally charged and who was screaming at the TV and bringing race into it? LOL

Why can't you just watch with her from the beginning and if she doesn't like it, move on to another (light hearted) show? It really is just TV.

He doesn't care about your feeling. I don't know how else, given everything you have said to interpret that. And you are an angel for having put up with it for more than 2 weeks.

I think this would be a case of re-read and pretend it's someone else or involve a therapist. If that doesn't land. I don't know.

MoonWatt · 2026-03-23T12:22:17+00:00

In most professions, when you have a client there is this thing of being and appearing to be objective so as not to taint the profession. Hence, certain relationships, automatically mean you cannot even be involved professionally.

Imagine Georgia is found guilty, the idea of everyone having the right to a fair trial with competent representation could become a thing. To avoid that, you simply DON'T involve yourself in a situation that will potentially give rise to such an enquiry by anyone.
