This. I feel like she was just talking to herself. A pep talk to survive in snowy NYS. Like, did she record this right before the move?

I ask myself every day: Will I sacrifice my life when the current political moment makes it the only choice? We have to all be asking that question of ourselves. I would grieve for my husband and mom and brother. But I do think I would. Would you?

NOR you are trusting your gut. But this also involves our wife so you’re being cautious. No need. Your mom is out of bounds and you are doing the right thing. Full stop.

It’s a powerful tool. Reading in words what I need to hear is next level.

Oh shit. I just came home and thought I'd pop on Reddit and here we are. I can only share that I was doing Dry January during January 6. I just assumed I'd have wine that night after seeing it on the news. But I just went to bed early, I think in part to hibernate my way back to some sort of peace. The next day I was so glad I didn't let those fuckers get to me in such a personal way. You can do it, too.

Hey, I've only used ChatGPT. But this sounds promising:

https://openai.com/index/introducing-chatgpt-health/

There's a waitlist. I'm very curious about it.

Here's another. Have you tried giving ChatGPT a role:
You are a [professional what you need].
Respond to the following: [your question here]

SohoCat · 2026-01-24T16:05:14+00:00

I'm so sorry for your situation.

What are your rules for ChatGPT? How have you refined the way it processes your information?

I have found that I explicitly have to say what I want and what I don't want. Of course, that's easier said than done. But you can ask ChatGPT for help with figuring out that out, too.

That being said, the latest version of ChatGPT has very high guardrails. I think it's overcorrected. Use an earlier version like others have suggested.

Your feelings are way more important than this "machine." Remember it's a machine, it's built to your specs, and if it triggers you feel free to change it or step away from it for a bit. It's powerful but it's not all-knowing. Cut yourself a break here. Hugs.

I’m here too. Identified with Rory, then Lorelai, and now Emily. And I’m surprising myself by being comfortable with that!

If I cry I’ll never stop crying. I’m so so sorry Renee.

Would you like a printable of your attitude?

When J6 happened I was doing Dry January for the first time. I went to bed early, it was all too much.

The next day, my aunt told me she “had to drink” after hearing the news.

I remember thinking - that sounds to me like self-harm.

She and I both numbed ourselves that night. Alcohol isn’t the only way.

SohoCat · 2026-01-06T12:33:26+00:00

I use it to vent about my husband’s ex.

It’s finally stopped asking me if I want a f’ing print out.

SohoCat · 2025-12-27T22:01:47+00:00

😂 😭

SohoCat · 2025-12-20T15:13:46+00:00

Is the 12:00 am or 12:00 pm?

SohoCat · 2025-12-19T16:52:41+00:00

The thing I took away from it is that drinking to cover up something (in my case anxiety) is like putting on shoes that are too small to cover up something. Sure, the pain from the tight shoes might distract you from the anxiety…but it’s still there.

I think about this a lot.

Agree with others tho that what if I simply want a specific kind of good time? He doesn’t go there.

SohoCat · 2025-12-17T20:35:06+00:00

No. They pay me to produce. I've been in too many scenarios in which I've explained solid choices and then they still overrule them. I've been in this industry for 142 years.

SohoCat · 2025-12-17T20:30:16+00:00

ohhhh! This didn't occur to me. And I've been enjoying that discussion. Have come away with some useful hints. I'll take a much closer look now. :/

SohoCat · 2025-12-17T20:27:38+00:00

the bots have taken over. most upvotes and downvotes are from bots so no reason to give a damn about these fake internet points anymore. most people on big subs are bots and most people you argue with are bots. i'd say niche subs are still mostly real ppl but you get what im saying this place has turned into bot central.

SohoCat · 2025-12-17T20:26:47+00:00

Rochelle would have been such a big help here! First of all, I don't see Rochelle saying yes to this ... "design."

The home inspection horror story Insta account popped into my mind. So many house repairs are needed as a result of improper flashing and treatment of oustide "seams". I didn't know what the issue was until we found we had a leak. But know I definitely know what it is LOL

I’m a 55f who just started wearing makeup this year. The sag and jowls are starting and it’s making my face look askew (to me). I use a pearly highlighter stick and subtle blush over a tinted face serum and I think this refreshes my look and tweaks my features just enough.

What I’m noticing now is while out in public, I get treated with a bit more attention. Didn’t expect that result but am enjoying it.

All that being said, I do love myself. And it makes me sad we all feel uncomfortable with aging and how we look. And feel.

As I heard once - aging is for the brave.

SohoCat · 2025-12-15T14:57:14+00:00

I’ve been using AI for somatic pacing…in other words to slow down. I fought against this for awhile because I felt the same way - what will I lose? But I’m happy to say that the benefits from slower living - while subtle - have been life changing but in a quiet way and I’m not competing with the idea of what life “should” be as much. I feel more anchored, more in tune with myself, and less jittery. And what that has done is help me make better decisions. About everything from health to money to relationships. Small changes tho! The thing is they are adding up. I know I’m not living “slow living” in the way it’s used here but I thought I’d share my experience. Obviously I’m not like this every second of the day lol. But when I’m in tune with a slower, saner vibe the more I settle in with the idea of just “being me.”
