But still the sunken stars appear In dark and windless Mirrormere; There lies his crown in water deep, Till Durin wakes again from sleep.

  • Is not being allowed to go home during bomb threat and instead being sent temporarily to a shelter normal or am i making this a big deal?

  • I can't imagine a scenario in which your employer doesn't lead with explaining why you are required to do anything, except for in the military or course. I mean, how does that affect the work environment, that the employees don't know why they aren't allowed to go home to their loved ones before doing anything else.

  • I agree. I think this essay also touches upon what you are saying: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-edYoZZosg

    It's really dystopian to me, how the training and implementations of LLMs seem to be fueling otherization online.

  • Love the analogy! I wouldn't even mind the technology itself. It's a really smart way of indexing and then outputting that which has been indexed according to the algorithm of your choice. It could be such a powerful tool in the right circumstances - hospitals, schools, libraries, dyslexic or deaf people, whathaveyou. But I'm so incredibly disappointed at how the general population bought into the "AI" jargon and discourse. It's detrimental to critical thinking and to human ingenuity.

  • Fortunately for me, and I'm kinda sorry for saying this but, I don't actually care. I was raised to be media literate, how to vet sources, how to meditate on any matter and transform thesis, arguments and analysis into written or spoken word and I am living up to these expectations on my own free will. What somebody else chooses to do on a personal level is up to them. I figure I have about 60 years left to live and by the time the above mentioned skills - or the lack thereof - start to affect society on a level that I as an individual cannot ignore of suffer involuntary consequences of, I will be dead. I think.

  • No. I want to marry you. Can you be my waifu?

  • Have you ever made an impulse purchase that you can't really explain or remember why you made the decision? Do you regret it?

  • That bag of potatoe chips last night was unnecessary AF and I regret buying it with all my belly.

    what is the most violent, reprehensible, sociopathic way to tie your shoes?

    Jump

  • Use steel wires so thin that every time you pull on them they cut into the flesh of your hands and you realize just how deeply therapeutic self-inflicted pain can be. You develop a new behavior: you untie and tie your "laces" without them actually becoming untied. You just want to feel the searing pain of metal sinking deep into your flesh. The free of charge buildup of bloodstains on your shoes is a bonus.

  • You are absolutely right! My post was more about self-gratification. I wanted to know if there is any truth to my intuition at all.

    Leaving Reddit was like being able to breathe again.

    When I finally broke up with my first love in ninth grade after having endured her cheating on me with my best friend for two years - which I was aware of but didn't know how to deal with - I felt worthless, stupid, ugly, like a failure and I wanted to kill myself. Did some real damage to my hands to numb the pain. Even now, 25 years later, the whole ordeal still hurts mentally and physically. I know she was an incredibly horrible human being and I shouldn't punish myself for it, but that's easier said than done.

    I've also broken up and got divorced about five years ago. We were together for eight years and married for four. This time, it was kind of amicable - we just had to go our separate ways even though we loved each other still - but it still felt horrible. I felt like puking for days after. It also shoved me into moderately severe depression and now I'm on meds for it.

    I wish I didn't have feelings.
