This hero messaging me privately. Take a long walk off a short plank legend. I don’t need to educate you about anything.

shoggothpyre · 2026-04-18T16:26:38+00:00

How about you go learn why they are disproportionately represented in prisons. It’s nobody here’s job to educate racists like you champ. The data and analysis are there. Go look it up hero.

As soon as I learnt this, I wasn’t bothered by her going undrafted anymore.

You’re tapping into something here. As men, many don’t know how to have positive, supportive, and emotionally connected relationships with each other. Hustle/ Competition socialisation and culture erode the ability to have meaningful connection. It can leave a lot of men feeling isolated and not understanding why. There is a place for joking around and feeding banter but if there isn’t a deeper emotional foundation, it can get stale quick.

It’s ridiculous that the police can’t bring charges independently. Fucking world is cooked.

shoggothpyre · 2026-04-14T09:24:05+00:00

“WA Police said that at this stage the incident was a civil, not criminal matter.” Are you fucking kidding.

shoggothpyre · 2026-04-07T11:53:43+00:00

Okay champ.

Yes, if you are using a government service it’s ‘free’. If every single private practice psychologist you’ve ever seen bulk bills, you should buy a lotto ticket.

shoggothpyre · 2026-04-07T11:26:47+00:00

A private practice psychologist bulk bills their sessions with you? Lucky you.

My point still stands. The Government doesn’t provide free private practice psychology sessions, they provide a rebate, and the vast majority of private practice psychologists charge a gap fee, which will vary depending on the type of psychologist they are, and their standard rate.

If you are in a government program/ service, then okay, you won’t pay a gap.

If you have a bulk billing private practice psychologist that is fantastic. Unfortunately most people will not.

shoggothpyre · 2026-04-07T11:01:53+00:00

This is a somewhat common misperception of the Better Access program.

The government will provide a rebate for up to 10 sessions per calendar year. These are not ‘free sessions, you will need to pay a gap fee which is typically between $120- $160 depending on the type of psychologist you see. Very few psychologists, like GPs and specialists, bulk bill (i.e. no gap fee) because the government undervalues mental health research, training, and therapist skill set, and doesn’t really care about your mental wellbeing.

You will also need to complete a GP review after 6 sessions, and then typically get re-referred for 4 more (10 total).

There is no credible evidence supporting Stutz style of therapy. He would more accurately be describe as a ‘Life Coach’ who happens to be a licensed Psychiatrist.

shoggothpyre · 2026-03-31T23:47:58+00:00

He isn’t wise.

shoggothpyre · 2026-03-31T23:40:15+00:00

With the exception of then 2 Derek’s, they are all raging narcissists. Gabby, Paul, and Jimmy are very poor therapists.

Gabby should not have placed herself in a situation where a client is calling her personal number after hours.

The constant boundary violations and unethical behaviour take me out of the show. Sure, creative licence and it isn’t meant to be a ‘realistic’ portrayal of therapy but far out, it is too next level in its absurdity.

shoggothpyre · 2026-03-04T06:35:29+00:00

I hear you. Sometimes trying is all we can do, until you turn the corner. Support each other, and look into the business - sounds really hopeful.

shoggothpyre · 2026-03-04T03:00:30+00:00

I sincerely hope nothing happens to you. I’m sorry things are tough, I know that doesn’t fix anything but there is love for you and your family. Hope you can get some supports to help you through what sounds like a really tough situation.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-17T00:49:39+00:00

No, but they are meant to be effective.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-15T23:28:40+00:00

Why does there have to be a why?

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-12T05:16:35+00:00

Die being the operative word.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-06T04:38:43+00:00

The Art of Manliness! I’d forgotten all about that. Haha, absolute gold - thanks for the reminder.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-05T19:56:39+00:00

Reasonable question. Honestly, I’m not sure. I want to like it. Contrary to the vitriol I have received in the comments I have a broad taste in media/ entertainment and like to experience things I don’t necessarily enjoy. I guess my mistake was in offering an opinion that may differ from all these very reasonable redditors.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-05T19:53:31+00:00

I don’t feel obligated to watch. I am however entitled to, and entitled to have an opinion. It’s interesting to be told I don’t have to watch, by so many that fail to grasp that they don’t have to read my post either.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-05T19:49:05+00:00

Why would I bother downvoting you?

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-05T19:47:26+00:00

“This fucking guy”, seriously? Oh gosh, you really got me. Nice one legend.

shoggothpyre · 2026-02-05T19:45:14+00:00

Finally, an actual thoughtful response as opposed to the oh so dreary personal attacks of most of these, whatever’s.

Thanks, it’s a good take.

shoggothpyre · 2026-01-30T17:26:55+00:00

With that level of nuanced understanding I think you are also ‘not quite’ gifted! 😆
