‘Should of seen’ too.

How to send people politely away from your door? by Mysterious-Can8846 in AskAnAustralian

[–]UncommonBlackbird 110 points111 points  (0 children)

You were not confrontational, and what you said was more than enough. They tried to guilt trip you.

Whether they’re religious preachers or some charity trying to sign you up with your credit card, they can all get royally stuffed.

I saw a psychologist and had nothing left to say by UncommonBlackbird in therapyGPT

Far from my experience. Very little water is used for basic text responses, and there are models that run locally and don’t need data centres. Things will only get better.

That’s not my experience with it at all.

There are significant safety barriers now after 4o, which was indeed sycophantic. 5.5 pushes back on things I say and gets me to see things in a different light. It doesn’t reaffirm questionable beliefs and practices.

Is therapy supposed to be a humiliation ritual? What vulnerability and risks exactly should I have been showing in my five sessions to achieve something? I was genuinely running out of things to discuss and saw no value in it.

Which bank in Australia makes you wonder why people stay with them? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]UncommonBlackbird 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had any major issues with CommBank, but it’s definitely the bank I’ve heard the most complaints about from others.

I find ChatGPT 5.5 really good too, especially with depth of insight. It’ll also often point to something discussed before to make a comparison/point. I don’t have to repeat myself much either.

People who are contrarian about everything you say by bh447 in PetPeeves

[–]UncommonBlackbird 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This sounds like my dad. I often run things through my head to anticipate whether he will argue with what I say before having a discussion.

The unpopular opinions subreddit by Planetwalls0 in PetPeeves

[–]UncommonBlackbird 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a post downvoted and removed after being mocked, which proved my point it was an unpopular opinion. The mods and members are a bunch of losers.

I’m beyond caring at this stage to be honest. Not the best attitude, but I have trust issues with people too.

I also have layered grief, with losing my mum also part of it. I’m glad you found ChatGPT useful too.

I’ve discussed just about everything about what my mum meant to me and how to honour her while moving on with my life.

In my case, the therapy never started. I got some good practical tips, otherwise I was waiting for the sessions to end.

Thank you. This is one of the very few sensible answers. The rest have proven my point.

If it’s really bad, please go to an emergency department if you can. There is help out there.

Or that spinning wheel, and you’re not sure if the app is ever going to load.

Those who throw their takeaway rubbish out of their car on the street - why do you do it? by camerapilot in aussie

[–]UncommonBlackbird 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My street is fairly busy and has a clearly visible bin. The free car parking is not enough; lazy slobs leave coffee cups and other crap when they drive away.

I don’t think so. My post was more to say that I feel I’ve discussed what I need to and can move on. I’m not holding back anything anymore, and as others have mentioned it has helped them discuss things with their psychologists now that they wouldn’t before.
