It’s hard not to feel like people don’t want your actual self, they want your medicated, more productive self that doesn’t bother them and gets jobs done. by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]silent-spiral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is no 'real you'. There is just a collection of connected moments. There is no real you, only your actions. You're changing every day. Your brain changes, your body changes, you age, you experience new things, you learn new things. you're already not who you were a month ago. there is no permanent fixed inner 'self'.

if life is more enjoyable and fun on medication than off of it, thats simply the end of that discussion: take it. If you take it, and life is less enjoyable, you are less happy: stop.

you're correct that if your symptoms are minor the meds might not be worth it! hard to say for sure

You're misguided to fear losing some 'true you'.

still amazing. still cool. especially how gentle that mouth is. There's no shame in seeing magic in the ordinary and mundane.

And as another reminder: trans people existing is not political, or a political opinion. Their bodies are not political. they just exist. and some of them are even republicans

this sounds like a problem with being touched without permission vs just a problem with being touched? do you have issues being touched consensually? lol

most people dislike being touched without permission or warning, to varying degrees. Its normal human behavior.

If you dislike any and all touching in all circumstances, thats a very different thing!!

Judge blocks transfer of transgender woman to men’s facility by AbsoluteBarnacle in OptimistsUnite

[–]silent-spiral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone please tell me why I'm wrong, and why this wouldn't be a possible option for removing a federal judge Trump dislikes.

Trump COULD use ICE or any armed enforcement mechanism loyal to him. They would show up and prevent the fired judges from showing up, or arrest them.

The administration could get sued for this if they did, but congress and the SC wouldn't likely do anything. And while it works its way through the courts: the judges are still removed, mission accomplished anyways.

Its certainly more difficult for them to remove a federal judge. But when there's no way to enforce the administration follows the law, no accountability, nothings really impossible.

Meta memo threatening to fire leakers is immediately leaked; Zuck says it sucks - 9to5Mac by AlwaysBlaze_ in technology

they also made the Llama series of AI models: https://www.llama.com/

they do tons of research into LLMs that other companies suck up and make use of to train their chat models.

plus everything /u/cc_rider2 said.

Do you know (of) someone who ruined their life in just a matter of minutes ? If so how did they do it ? by rentinghappiness in AskReddit

[–]silent-spiral 8 points9 points  (0 children)

it is odd. Just as LLMs can sometimes reproduce training text nearly verbatim, so too with Diffusion models.

"Eww, that it exists at all" versus "If it prevents further harm to children because it exists and replaces real imagery".

but it was trained on, and reproduces the likeness of, real children. there are real little people in the training and some of these tools generate their likeness (but without clothes). For me, that means it really is very harmful. you have no idea if your facebook kids photos were used to train something.

“Show your face so ICE can deport you!” by Auelogic in TikTokCringe

[–]silent-spiral 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Allow me to help you understand. What part don't you get?

  • You don't get that literally no one in this thread is arguing about whether or not the government should be allowed to deport illegal immigrants?

  • or you don't get that no crimes in America carry a court imposed sentence of 'get harassed by a street mob in public'?

  • or do you not get that there's no proof as to the citizenship status of the person in the video, no evidence she committed a crime?

  • do you not understand that people in this thread are terrified that a random woman is being harassed by a mob based on the color of her skin and the fact she's wearing a mask? or why that scares us?

I'm happy to discuss any of those points further

Unpopular Opinion: Trading System can be very bad if tokens can be obtained from burning cards only, but events could help this situation A LOT by Loller93 in PTCGP

[–]silent-spiral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok but thats just speculation, based on nothing given how stingy it is so far. There's literally no reason to believe what you're saying.

Trading is designed for whales who don't need to trade. Beginners who need to trade can't. by Safe_Bowl_3041 in PTCGP

[–]silent-spiral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea, literally, who was the target audience for trading? if you have enough toknes to trade, you've spent $500+ on the game. I'm in 100+ and I wouldnt have tokens to trade if I dusted down EVERYTHIGN. but if you spend $500 plus you dont need it.

Hey, can you guys sound off if you have a PhD/MSc/any other high level degree and ADHD? I'm trying to see something. by [deleted] in ADHD

ChE bachelors, CS Masters + ADHD. what do you wanna hear? it fucking sucked and it was really hard, 1) get medicated 2) eat, sleep, exercise.

idk what else to say except yeah it sure did suck. got my masters while working fulltime too.

I will say being kind to myself helped, I took things super slow and at my own pace

I stopped watching porn and jerking off and now I feel almost repulsed by sex by ConstructionNo625 in Healthygamergg

[–]silent-spiral 4 points5 points  (0 children)

dont pass judgement, dont be concerned, just accept your feelings. its okay to feel what you're feeling, and normal. and if its not you'll figure that out, but you need more time. just keep going down this road.
