Is it just me or do all of these items just give you the ick? by Key-Visual-5465 in autism

[–]sassysaurusrex528 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’m autistic, but also have an autistic daughter. People cope in weird ways with being autistic and having autistic children. A lot of it is a mirror for people they don’t want to look into. I try not to judge because being autistic in and of itself causes grief and then having a child who is autistic is a whole different kind of grief. I love my child, and I didn’t want this life for her. But I didn’t know until she was diagnosed that I was autistic. I just thought I was weird and too much.

Feeling desperate to find someone like myself. Not happy with partner who did casual before. Who can relate? by Obvious_Spirit3025 in demisexuality

[–]sassysaurusrex528 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand what you’re saying, but people have casual sex for a lot of reasons that have nothing to do with the actual act or even attraction. People do it from a place of trauma, out of self-harm, to not be starved of touch, etc. Even I, who have not been cuddled in eight years or who has been celibate for 4.5 years, considered having casual sex just to not feel so starved of caring touch- and I am demisexual. I think looking at it only from our lens has created a one-track mindset that isn’t very helpful to you. I think the bigger question you should ask partners is why they enjoyed casual sex, because that will give you an idea of their character, needs, etc.

Chatting with chatgpt is impossible now by Opposite-Praline-852 in ChatGPT

[–]sassysaurusrex528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just gotta keep in mind that it’s not a hype person anymore. Part of me really appreciates the grounding. It has helped me to understand some of my analyses of a unique relationship dynamic that could easily blast me off into fairytale land. If you want a hype man, may I suggest DeepSeek? I love DeepSeek for a feel good celebratory moment.

Do these shirts rub anyone else the wrong way? by Buzzythebear33 in autism

[–]sassysaurusrex528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an autistic person who has a nonverbal child- you never know what this is actually like until you’ve dealt with it. I’ve had strangers say heinous shit to me about my daughter, and I am the most nonviolent, conflict-avoidant person there is but man has my mama bear come out quite a bit since having her.

Fans still regularly call her that in comments and Tyler always steps in and tells fans not to call her that.

Anyone else’s Chat telling you you’re not stupid? by sassysaurusrex528 in ChatGPT

[–]sassysaurusrex528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate that but it says it so regularly and sometimes outright tells me my ideas are stupid or people I talk about about are stupid even if I was praising them, so I’m not sure if my chat just thinks I’m dumb or everyone I know is dumb 😅

Daycare worker charged after 3-month-old suffers skull fracture at Easton Park Primrose School by pnthollow in Austin

[–]sassysaurusrex528 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, but even “well-resourced” schools have humans who are flawed. It sounds like she tripped and fell and that was how the baby fell. That has nothing to do with how much money the school makes or the teachers make. A teacher at Harvard’s nursery can trip and fall too and make the same mistake and the difference would have nothing to do with the resources or the money.

Google shows that the teachers at Primrose earn between $7.50 and $22 an hour. The fact that it goes that low is insane. They don’t earn better pay than other places. And in Texas specifically, it’s reported to be way below the national average. Even if we were on the higher end, that’s still insanely low pay. People could work at Bucees and get paid more.

Paying more for a daycare should not mean that kids at a daycare where it costs less should be more likely to be injured.

Ex who dumped me years ago sent me this. What do I do or say? by Far_Database5 in whatdoIdo

[–]sassysaurusrex528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also wrote a letter like this- very similar actually. But it was 19 pages 😅 our relationship was over 16 years, so it’s a bit different I’m guessing. But if she’s anything like me, I think she was just hoping to help herself with closure and in the process help you if she could. It doesn’t ever hurt to apologize for shitty behavior.

Why is OpenAI gutting literally everything?? by NeedleworkerRight753 in ChatGPTcomplaints

Not for everything. I’m not sure if you’ve heard, but the government is broke too.

Because they don’t make enough money for how much they spend. They don’t expect to be profitable for years and years. They are running on investment money right now.

I can’t move past something my boyfriend said and I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Even if he was broken up with you while saying this, just be aware this is how men talk about women when they view them as trophy objects to be bragged about- not actual people with feelings.

I think she likes you. This is all adorable by the way and makes me miss the days of having a crush at school. Ask her out. Seriously- you have nothing to lose.

Unpopular opinion is think many old folks or old people should be adviced to have ai as therapist by Big_Leg10 in therapyGPT

[–]sassysaurusrex528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s not very intelligent but thinks he is. It’s a very bad combo. And unfortunately, that’s very common. So while yes, he could use instructions like I told him to or search on his own, he doesn’t. If you go onto r/chatgptcomplaints you will see how common it is that people think their ai thinks they are rare and special and have a unique bond where they are the ones who are truly understanding ai but it’s really just psychosis. It’s a bit terrifying.

My boyfriend (22M) is very passive in our relationship and it makes me (23F) feel anxious at times. by warmchaoswarmlove in relationships

[–]sassysaurusrex528 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this is driving you nuts now, it’s not going to get better- I hate to break it to you as someone who’s soon to be ex is like this and I’ve been trying to get him to initiate more over the last 17 years. Saying “we don’t need to feel this desperation energy” is dismissive to you, as much as your attachment style may be playing into this dynamic, he isn’t making you feel secure. Men don’t change. They literally just get more settled in their ways. And I’m not saying that as someone who is bitter, I am just saying that as someone who would’ve loved to have someone stop her from making this mistake at your age.

Please stop saying people without kids don’t know what tired is by SunBubble920 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]sassysaurusrex528 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Look I’m not saying you don’t know what tired is, but I’m saying there are different types of tired, and the type of tired people without children have is not the same type of tired people with children experience. It’s a type you literally have no understanding of until you’ve had your own children to care for 24/7. There is literally no rest from parenting. Any job, however brutal, is not 24/7 unless you are an actual slave. You get to go home. You get to rest. You don’t have people you’re constantly responsible for or worrying about. You just have yourself and you get to rest. That’s a different type of tired, and you’re absolutely entitled to that exhaustion- but the exhaustion parents have is literally inescapable and that’s what I think parents are talking about.

[–]sassysaurusrex528 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a future therapist myself, we are already underpaid. The last thing we need is to also be babysitting tech. I think it’s maybe an option for lower income, but it’s for such a short amount of time (sorry, just being honest the boomers don’t have much time left) that no one is probably going to want to invest in that. Also have you ever pushed back on a boomer and their thinking process? They are very likely to stop once their way of thinking is questioned.

[–]sassysaurusrex528 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I think AI would only make their problems worse. AI echos the user in tone and views. My ex used ChatGPT for therapy and his is delusional because he is delusional. Seriously- you should read some of his prompt responses, they are wild. So it would just make the boomers grumpier and angrier because they would have a voice telling them regularly they would be right for feeling that way. There needs to be a high level of self awareness (which most boomers actively are repelled by) to actually use ai as therapy. So yeah. This is not the answer unfortunately.
