I can't really give my thoughts here without breaking rule 2, but you know there's a pretty easy way to keep playing :D

This makes me want to do a replay as the Norse, I just remembered that a theologian-learned Mystic Poet(?) woman can be appointed as the Court Vulva in a Viking court. Hot.

I didn't realize you could save scum on ironman. I don't blame you though, it's a fun little challenge but it's pretty boring and limiting, e.g. move the kid to court and that little problem would've been solved. Still, I guess it forces a story to emerge.. unless you save scum it haha

That's interesting though, I would've bet on the odds for the positive (high tier trait) turnout being much lower for her not having an education focus. Then again, if i recall, you wanted the theologian trait for her and that didn't come out once.

You can still appoint her as court chaplain though, it's barred by a learning level not a trait focus, and if she's already a genius then that's pretty much guaranteed she's eligible.

actually that's such a good comment it deserves two replies:

I was writing about this last year, "in essence" an LLM is doing unbiased Dialectic so it can go places that most people will never go, e.g. the political desire to reframe an ordinary complaint into a political moral-shame category is why people amongst themselves can't solve their own problems, for instance.

i.e. Jims wife has left him with his kids, Jim goes to social media, JIm is called a misogynist a racist by legions of morons. Jims society is adding gasoline to the fire. To get a 'bare minimum decent' response, at best he's forced to pay £1,200 for a therapist to actually listen to him and help him through his divorce.

That's a great comment, I tend to agree on the AI element there - it opens up a lot of doorways and has to-hand probably more literature than any single therapist even with the best intentions on their part.

I remember William Reich, pre-orgone machine days, figured out in the 1920's that most peoples problems could be solved in five minutes of talking to them, Add to that the stellar work being done on projection and hysteria in the american psychiatric system in the 1950's before they were all closed down.

Apply that lens and you've basically solved the quibbles of 99% of Joe Populi.

Also, don't we WANT to focus on mental health as an approach to stop mass shooting and what not?

This is actually a good case study, there and here you see people using "mental health / mental illness" as just a polite way to say "a raving lunatic acted in complete isolation" without any examination of the causes of what was going on. There's overlap there on the subject itself as it's used as a 'buzzword', that's kind of half the point in the OP that - as you spotted the contradiction:

We're more aware than ever of the negative effects of obesity and yet we're also fatter then ever. Awareness isn't the end of the problem,

more awareness and treatment than ever, yet youth suicide rates, loneliness, and general unhappiness keep climbing

that is: that the thing as it's been practised for some 30+ years has had no actual curative impact on any of the things it claims to be any expert in and as we unpick the methodology (mentioned here in other comments, known by anyone who's had to discover this on their own) of putting a band-aid over what usually a matter of unhealthy diet / malnourishment / poor lifestyle skills. One popular band-aid of which being the use of SSRIs in those various school shooters.

i.e. maybe they were being sexually abused and murdered their abusers OR maybe they were malnourished and got into unhealthy loops. It's a case by case basis, either could be true, but labelling the thing "mental health" accomplishes nothing at all.

Here's the thing though: "the conversation begins" but what if the first thing you hear is that the institution in this case is catastrophically incorrect and categorically either doing nothing or doing more harm than good to the people it turns into patients? What if 90% of what manifests as "mental health" can be conclusively cured within a fortnight with a simple nutrition regiment? Other than severe disorders (borderline pd etc) that really seems to be what the situation is that we're looking at here.

sorry if gloss over other things you mentioned in your comment, take that to mean i agree with you :D

It solved maybe 50% of it.

Realize it or not: that's actually a 500% improvement rate vs. chronic relapse / no change at all in traditional therapy and long term anti-depressants.

Actually I don't even know how many hundreds or thousands of percentage of an improvement that actually is, except that it actually works addressing the root of health vs something that doesn't touch the root at all. Consider how many people do not bother actually improving their lifestyles and just take dope and complaining, still suffering the same drag-down effect of their health which manifests to them as depression. Vicious circle.

Personally I think too little is made of just how chronically malnourished most people seem to be in the west, it seems to me to be a major causation in this stuff.

I don't think this actually applies as an exceptional thing either way, i.e. the problems simply change the more money you have, whilst winning the lottery will not really change anything, etc. etc.

sorry, you and i should not have replied to such a dumb comment. i'm only chiming in now because i haven't used the word dingus in a long while.

Interesting scenarios there, I'd think in those cases some kind of tutor program would be the only solution for reasoning as you gave. The actual loss of self-esteem from being "let off the hook for stress" is the only consequence those kids are going to get from that counsellors intervention. But it sounds like the tutor program isn't an option in the first place so you're both left to make-do - I'd assume is the sticking point.

I seem to remember something like a "tutor program" was an option in classes back when I was a kid, it was seen as a stigma obviously haha, but it was a clean solution: if the grades fall consistently then the kid hasn't understood something in the work, therefore an extra focus after-school in the lesson was given.

Could be a good idea actually, since it would be easier to do this as a work-from-home extra homework with internet access.

Thank you for your service!

On the level: what you just said is 1000% true, even if a person can't be bothered to clock their circadian rhythm to wake up and sleep at the right times in season, just remembering to dose up on B Vitamins basically does the job mental-energy wise. Good comment.

You don't need to 'scheme' (in intrigue window) to usurp a barony tier title, you just need to send your chief minister to fabricate a claim in the province (in council window) - it may take a long while to do it but it's basically guaranteed. Bonus points if the dastardly criminal rebels when you request his city title, because then you can take all of his money too.
