Every Friday, just say whatever is in your mind in this post. It doesn’t need to be a question, and go on whatever tangent you want to go on.

We will still be enforcing our rules on gendered slurs, bigoted/disrespectful/hateful commentary, invalidation (if someone’s only contribution is telling others they are wrong), medical issues, and relationship advice. However the comments don’t need to be on a specific topic, and they don’t need to be open-ended questions.

  1. I created a new character. He’s some old dude who lives in the woods and eats mushrooms. He’s got a big, long beard and he’s super gaunt from only eating mushrooms in the woods. He seems cooky but is actually enlightened. He’s a simple guy who lives his life as he believes it should be lived. He doesn’t worry about the troubles of the world. He is able to go beyond. He just hops around in the woods. He thinks about life, but not too seriously, and he eats mushrooms and is fulfilled by life’s simple pleasures. What should I call him??

  2. I finally starting to feel like my old happy and bubbly self after my confidence was shattered in 2024. I had a two friends that betrayed me and left me feeling vulnerable and did not trust anyone (isolated myself).

    This year I feel ready to trust myself and others again and feel optimistic like I did before. I don’t have anyone to express this to so thought it would be nice to say it to someone

  4. I hate my body. Why am I always either too tired or too sick when I need to do stuff?!

  5. Still in recovery mode. I started seeing a therapist last year and almost each visit some crisis out of my hand occurred. Even she noticed. It really sped up from October with multiple family members in hospital and culminated in dental surgery last month. My reserves is minus 200 or more. I have no more to give. I had a full on breakdown during the dental stuff. My anxiety levels are in high. 

    Will I be OK? Yes, I been down before I’ll get up again. But I’m fucking tired of always being knocked down and then kicked. 

  7. I’m so sick of being in the hospital. I want my last chemo to get started so I can go home.

  8. I am in a role where AI absolutely should not be used but is blindly being put to work. My performance has absolutely gone to the dogs ever since it has been forced down our throats and I feel pathetic when I see other people using it and amazing results they are able to produce meanwhile I cannot get it to do even the basics. I know it may be that my prompts are weak but I stg I am trying to get them to be precise and elaborate. I am actually having an anxiety attack because I was supposed to do something a month ago and still haven’t because I was asked to use AI to complete the task.

    People at my job are being constantly sacked for a multitude of reasons but the main factor now is the inability to use and produce good results with AI. I am on this list if I don’t get my shit together.

    I really miss having to work on and figure things out on my own. All of this has made my already slow brain so much worse. I am struggling to even write a basic email these days, my brain is rotten.

    I will have to work tomorrow in order to finish my tasks and complete my annual review which again is very much centred around AI and btw we have been asked to use AI to help complete it for us by giving it access to all of our system.

    Everything and everyone is AI, even outside of work. Meet someone you fancy? They’re using AI to text. You like that cute top? It’s AI. Baby and puppy videos? AI. Delicious looking food that you’re looking forward to order in after starving yourself trying to finish work? AI!!!
