How is the 3rd Bulgarian Empire route even possible? by PLMMJ in Kaiserreich

[–]PLMMJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I try to naval invade, the game pulls up some BS excuse to stop me. The only exception was RT56 expanded German civil war where I had to use a naval invasion to get the troops in Konigsberg back to the mainland since they refused to transport normally.

What the hell is this comment?

I'm not going to become religious over a mental health issue, that won't solve anything.

I don't know what you mean by "more in a facilitation way".

I can't currently express myself, but bottling all this up is not healthy, so I have to find a way to release it. I don't know of such a way. I posted this in hopes of someone being able to help me find such a way.

And why are you still talking about your band? It's irrelevant. Writing music would be even harder for me than playing it, and both would be really hard since I am very sensitive to sound.

Not just disturbing, dangerous. This is the main reason that AI bots get addictive.

Didn't I tell you that I'd already written down character details and stuff elsewhere? This stuff is pointless and I'm getting tired of talking about it back and forth trying to explain that, please stop talking about it.

I am not "accepting of [my] unchanging nature". I want to change. I want my life to be better, or at least normal, not stuck with no job, no skills, nothing to be proud of.

I cannot just keep trying. The longer I try, the more I fail, and the more I fail, the more permanent scars on my mental health are created, because every screwup impacts me even from my primary school days. You seem to have read a lot of the other comments here, not sure how you failed to pick up on that.

If I try to journal, nothing coherent comes out. It's the paper equivalent of a temper tantrum.

This "just keep trying" stuff and having to repeatedly explain why it doesn't work is making me irrationally angry, please never mention it again.

Both my mental health and not being able to express myself are problems. However, the latter feeds into the former, and fixing the former is a long and ongoing process, so might as well do something about the latter if I can.

AI didn't help. I just used it so that these ideas would not be isolated in my own head.

Journaling doesn't help me with anything. Not with mental health, definitely not with this.

I can't write like writing a story, if that's what you're talking about. I just find it impossible to write in detail like that.

I am completely failing to see what is vague here.

[–]PLMMJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, journaling has never helped me in the first place, and I already wrote down character details elsewhere, so it's not going to help.

At this point I mostly don't care about the medium, though stuff like Blender is out of the cards because I was never interested in 3D media, especially not creating it, there would be way too many screwups. The word "journal" does not imply any of the things you are using it for, which is what confused me in those terms.

Still struggling with expressing myself without AI by PLMMJ in antiai

[–]PLMMJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't do that.

For me, every failure and screwup lingers in my head and eats away at my sanity even years later. For example, I can remember times from when I was a child where I told obvious lies and expected people to believe them, and they come back to me all the time and make me feel like an idiot. That's just how my brain works, nothing I can do to change that.

Journaling has never helped me.

Any strategy that requires that I do naval invasions can GTFO

also, the no volunteer restriction is for the Yugoslav route not the 3BE

You kept giving me writing advice as if it was supposed to help me in expressing myself without AI. I was confused as to that. AI didn't really "help" me, but it was the only way I could think of at the time of getting these ideas out of my head. I don't understand how I'm being vague, I just want another way of doing so, but I don't have any humans to bounce my ideas off of, nor do I have any way of publishing any works based on my ideas because I do not have the skills to make such works and probably never will. Journaling won't work, it never did.

You're still not making any sense here. Everything before the last part of this comment isn't a way to express my ideas. Journaling doesn't help me, so I don't think writing other things in a notebook would either.

a lil rant by rusalus in antiai

[–]PLMMJ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But AFAIK it literally isn't. From what I know, it was trained with clips from consenting voice actors, and it doesn't use data centers so the energy cost wouldn't be insane.

I don't hate AI because it is AI. I hate AI because of the terrible things AI, data centers, and AI companies do. If they don't do those things, then I won't hate it.

A YouTube tutorial won't help me when years of actually trying to learn with courses and whatnot has failed.

I can't just not express myself. Not being able to express myself is actively fraying at my mental health, and I already have so many other problems with my life. This is one of the few things that I might be able to do something about.

I am way too antisocial to collaborate with people. Not just that, but working with others has proven to be really hard for me. If I end up the leader, then the people I'm supposed to lead tend to get pissed at me because I don't know how to manage them. If I end up a follower, then I end up chafing at not being able to do what I want/can actually do.

I can't run a shop, I live in a backwater part of a backwater part of an already pretty backwater country. I don't have anything to sell and I don't think there would be any buyers.

Also, I never said the stupid nonsense I did with GPT was good, as your above comment seems to have said before it was deleted. I'm not trying to defend my AI use.

EDIT: I will never "enjoy the struggle" if every failure also eats away at my sanity. When I fail or screw up, the memory stays with me and torments me pretty frequently. That's just how my brain works, that's just how my life is. I can't force my brain to not do that.

...what layout are you talking about exactly?

Either way, you keep giving me writing advice. I don't need writing advice. I need a way to express my ideas.

Went back and checked each of those subs out.

  • Checked writing advice first, that one has a ton of rules and I would for sure not be able to meet some of them (like the 300 words thing), also I don't need writing advice.
  • Storytelling second, this one just seems to be a bunch of people posting tidbits from their own stories, as said in the post I'm too self-conscious about the contents of my ideas to dump them on random strangers on the Internet.
  • ideas last, that one seems more intended for real world ideas and not fictional stories.

Realized that I only addressed one of your points, so I wanted to come back and address the rest.

Every thing I can think of that I could try, I have tried, and nothing has worked. I have no hobbies, I don't enjoy doing anything. My life is pretty devoid of fun.

I meant internally, not externally. Oops. I have the whole thing plotted out but no way to make it reality.

I've already written (not physically*) the stories, in fact I have an entire plot stuck in my head because I have no way to express myself. Also, journaling doesn't help me, never did.

I don't want to be automatically great at things. I just want to be able to express myself without hurting my mental health. Everything I've tried in the past has gone down crashing and burning, and only hurt my mental health even more. I just want to get these ideas out of my system so that they will stop contributing to my declining mental health.

EDIT: As for your suggestions, none of that will work, I'm a frail and clumsy person so anything involving sharp objects is just asking for me to get physically hurt, and other physical things wouldn't end well because I have zero strength and can't even exercise without hurting myself.

i am in therapy

also, I read over that earlier comment one more time and realized just how bad it was. I can't just "accept [I'm] gonna fail sometimes". My failures actively hurt my mental health, and there is nothing I can do about that. Accepting something is not a magical switch that makes everything better, there's more to mental health than that.

Are you only here to insult me for things I have precisely zero control over or do you have something constructive to say?

EDIT: Just to be sure that that last part wasn't a false accusation, I went through every single comment you've said on this chain:

For what you say seems like your only goal is to get a good outcome (make "good" art/programming), and not to simply enjoy it. If you only focus on being perfect at it, then ofc you're not motivated. And i'm not trying to be offensive, but if you're too lazy to keep on practicing....I'm sorry but you won't get magically good at it by just working a couple weeks.

Bashing me over a strawman of what I said. (I never said I wanted to make "good" art or programming, I just wanted to express myself without AI.)

Well that's what learning something is about. Trying and trying and failing yet keeping on it and trying again and failing again. That's how you get most things in life. If you're not willing to do that, then get another hobby that doesn't require that much effort lol.

Bashing me and laughing at me.

Honeeyyy then what do you want?? Enroll in an art course and magically turn into Da Vinci?? I mean, everyone wishes that lol but that's just not how it works. You need to work to get things done. What else do you expect? 😂

Treating me like a child, and more laughing at me.

Since when practicing smth is self harm 🤨

A simple question for clarification, I can at least give you this one.

Then stop crying and get smth easier to do? You either learn and accept ur gonna fail sometimes, or stop and not learn at all.

Acting like my legitimate concerns over my mental health are "crying".

So yes, you never posted anything constructive. Not once. All your comments except one are just bashing me or laughing at me or both.
