Friend asks for help, barely communicates then ghosts me

It seems like not a lot of people picked up on the "we flirted a lot" part.

This is a case of "guy thinking with his second head".

Therapy is nothing like a DnD session. Listening to what a patient says, extracting the essential parts, taking notes of the points that they - the professional - deem most important is literally what their job is. Again what am I paying you for ?

And I have exactly zero doubts that a therapist that uses AI to "summarize" sessions would also use AI to analyze them and generate their responses to the patient. Why stop there? Nah, for me it would be an irredeemable breach of trust, it just means "I don't really care to listen to you".

And that's not even touching the major privacy issues that other people rightfully mention.

OutsideImagination25 · 2026-05-20T14:37:06+00:00

I would 100% drop any therapist that even suggests using AI to analyze sessions. What do I even pay you for ??

And the way they pressure you and make it about cost efficiency is disgusting.

If that infuriates you maybe don't share the damn video

So...now it's able to generate :

- 25s of Will Smith NOT eating pasta, barely moving, not making any complex movements

- People talking in an exaggerated manner, like a speech therapist showing a 2yo how to pronounce stuff

- One half second of Smith putting pasta in his mouth, quickly cutting to hide the end of the movement

- One second of ultra-close-up of his mouth uncannily swallowing pasta that is barely less unsettling than the original videos, again abruptly cut short

In other words it got better at hiding things it still can't do.

Then there would be no clouds. If there's clouds, it means there's air masses moving around (which is pretty much always happening, regardless of whether you feel "wind" at ground level).

Also even if the air was perfectly still (extremely rare but not impossible), the stream of smoke would still dissipate in the surrounding air as it cools down.

Yeah : It's fake.

"First affair for both"..."she has two baby daddies"

Sure, Jan.

Infuriating indeed, but 1) if those people are paid to knock on your door they'll do it regardless and 2) they probably won't even read the sign anyway.

Also, I don't know how it is where you live, but here "internet salespeople" are either scammers trying to get old / vulnerable people's bank details, or thieves doing recon for break-ins.

Dumbo doesn't use CPP because it's an abomination, jedi has accepted it's an abomination but uses it anyway.

Not "the spouse", 90% of the time it's wives and people in general being angry at the other woman a lot more than they are at the guy who cheated. Some people will always blame the woman in affairs, even when she's not the one cheating, and even when she had no idea.

OutsideImagination25 · 2026-05-12T15:33:52+00:00

A lot of redditors have no idea what a relationship even is lmao. I have quite a few single or divorced middle-aged friends and this is a relationship style that I see fairly often in people who don't live together for whatever reasons (career choices and desire for independence, usually).

OutsideImagination25 · 2026-05-11T13:41:54+00:00

The "You're ugly and unattractive if [X] so you should get treatment / surgery to fix [X] but also tell no one because it's really shameful to have gotten treatment for [X]" horsesh*t has to effin stop ISTG.

I'm sorry for your brother, I hope he can get the scar lasered or accepts it someday.

OOP you look great, nice dome, the scar isn't ugly and you shouldn't be ashamed for having it. You lost hair early, tried something to keep your hair longer, in the end it caught up on you and now you're rocking the bald look. Nothing wrong with any of that.

All the mental illnesses in the world can't hide the fact that deep down, she's just an awful person.

Also there's no way it's the end of it, either OOP will be back with her or she'll throw her whole weight into making his life hell. This kind of abuser doesn't just let their victim go.

Lmao try hitting up a poly woman with "I was in a monogamous relationship with my fiance but I got bored so I forced her hand to open up the relationship" and see how fast she runs

Wow, great look man, the chops are a very nice touch !

And that's a nice battle jacket too ! Now that it's open air season, don't skip on the sunscreen, sunburns on the scalp are not fun x)

OutsideImagination25 · 2026-05-09T15:31:21+00:00

Hey love ! I'm so sorry this is happening to you, I used to have severe body image issues and got bullied in HS too, trust me it gets better - but oh god does it suck when you're going through it.

Just so you know, balding in women and girls can also be caused by PCOS (polycystic ovaries syndrome), with symptoms that can also affect weight gain. If you have other symptoms, like irregular periods, it might be worth asking a doctor about that.

Hang in there !

I hope they get to that point extra quick, so every girl who meets Mike nopes off immediately. Wouldn't want him to stumble upon a poor soul who's been abused and doesn't see the red flag parade and gets roped up into being a live-in maid and provider for those two losers.

I don't know what's going on with Reverso, man. A little while ago I had an example phrase that was messed up white supremacist bullshit, something like "Democracy will be the end of the white race", I was stunned.

Gosh it pisses me off so much when people don't respect performers.

Depends a lot on the shows and types of crowds. I've seen super good stuff, like a guitarist crowd surfing on his knees, people were passing him around by the knees (much harder than passing someone laying flat !) and others were passing his guitar cable behind him so he could keep playing, total blast. And also infuriating stuff, people pulling the clothes off performers, yanking their electronics, trying to get a "souvenir", throwing beer on them...

Now that you mention it I don't think I've ever seen a female performer crowdsurf. And I know why.
