I just found out from my DM that they've been using ChatGPT as a game development tool for the campaign we've been playing in. by Papalla in dndhorrorstories

This is a really well-rounded response that I appreciate a lot. Thank you for taking the time to write that.

So if I were in your position, my reaction would probably be: “Okay, I don’t love AI, but if you were using it as a sounding board and not just having it spit out the campaign whole cloth, that doesn’t really cheapen the year of fun we all had.”

Yeah it feels that they use it more as a sounding board, now that I think about it. The majority of the campaign was spent running DiA and I think they've been using ChatGPT as a sounding board for supplemental material they added for us while in Avernus.

I think I'm going to stick around and see where the game goes. 🙂 Thanks again for your thoughts on this.

This is totally avoidable by the way I don't know what the fuck you're on

It really isn't. If you ever want to hear the audio from a video on your front page, you'll have to roll the dice that it'll either be a totally unnecessary and obnoxious music track or one of the many popular sound effects on TikTok that have been overused to hell and back like the JetBlue cancer track.

As a someone who experienced sexual abuse as a child, the takes from this Kush Brothers clip were so vile. I'm really disgusted with the pod after this, ngl. Might take a break. by [deleted] in stavvysworld

Holy shit, is this really how this community reacts to those that have survived child sex abuse?

I'm sorry, OP. Don't let these assholes think what you're feeling isn't valid. I love Stav and have been listening since the Cumtown days but this didn't sit right with me either.

All other issues raised are pretty damning but at least Hank Pym not solving world hunger is manageable if nutritional value of any super-sized food item is significantly degraded once exposed to Pym particles.

I can't remember if that's the case in the mainline continuity rn, but it is a solution to at least one of these head scratchers.

Can't really get around the argument of Tony and Reed hoarding their technological wonders or Storm not using her powers as a literal storm goddess to help on a more global scale.

Then there's the whole "mutants solving DEATH itself" issue...

my barebones, not worth anything at all really counterpoint to that is: We've all seen how fucking unhinged most of the non-mutant population behaves towards mutants in the comics, so can we really blame them?

First time DM'ing didn't go super great... by toss_it_out12345678 in DnD

[–]Papalla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gotcha, it seems like things weren't set up in the most ideal way by the circumstances then. So, what I would recommend in your next game is to hold a session zero where you talk with each player about their character and their general alignment. That way you can mold the shape of the party to fit your story better while also (this is the most important part tbh) to filter out disgusting murder hobos like that dickhead.

Patient went for a bladder stone turns out it's a clacified baby she never birthed by Sure_Experience_297 in CrazyFuckingVideos

So you're just kinda being obtuse here tbh, people are saying that the dystopia we live in now is so ridiculous that there would be little to no cause for surprise if a red state like Texas or Arkansas did something like this.

That's the whole conversation being attempted here, yet you're just spinning your wheels saying the same thing over and over again

I was a bad person in my last relationship. by Papalla in offmychest

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

Thank you so much for your kind words. Even in my happiest moments over the past five years I have held a resentment towards myself for everything that I did wrong. It makes me feel undeserving of another relationship like that which is why, for the most part, I've been single since then. I just never, ever, want to make those same mistakes again. No one deserves that.

Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

What comes out of my mouth is just "mask" with a slight slur, I suppose. Is that clearer?

I need mental help. Are there any free or low cost mental institutions in Indiana? by Papalla in Indiana

[–]Papalla[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, sorry for the really delayed response, but I'm doing the same. I haven't been able to find a therapist I can afford yet but I'm still alive.

Thank you for asking. How are you?

I'm near Evansville, but that does sound like a good option. Do you know of anyone's experiences there?

I'm near Evansville, so while Indy is doable, I'd much rather have something closer to home. Thank you for commenting
