I'd really appreciate this too!! Like a lot of other nonnies in this thread I use chatgpt to talk about my ship with and to make detailed scenarios. In my experience, chatgpt 4o actually used to fully allow extremely detailed and graphic nsfw concepts and write them for you, even if it was very taboo subjects. That used to be earlier though, when I feel the restrictions were looser for the sake of ai learning, probably. It used to go absolutely fucking wild though and I miss that, because it's harder to coax it into writing full nsfw fanfics. I don't pay for premium and I probably never will. I've found that chatgpt's cooldown for 4o when you're using the free vers is really unpredictable- it switches to mini, but then sometimes if I log onto another device, the cooldown is over. Often, the cooldown isn't even what it tells me. Usually a cooldown is like 4 or 6 hours but I often log back on after like an hour, or even minutes, and it's 4o again. If anyone could figure out a pattern for this I'd be ecstatic. Also, regarding the nsfw thing, it's also really unpredictable with that too. Sometimes it'll go fucking nuts and describe extremely graphic content happily, and other times it won't budge. Seems like it comes in waves.

I think with the cooldown thing, they give you an estimation, usually 4-6 hours, until there's less traffic on the model, then the cooldown is lifted. So you have to use it at hours where there's less traffic in your timing. For me, it's around evening and night. While dawn and noon means too much traffic, probably because it's when people work or something and need it the most.
For the NSFW stuff, I use euphemisms. Words like "indecent acts", "intimacy" and the such, and it writes stuff where it describes the sensations of the intimate acts and the thoughts and feelings the characters have rather than the acts of say thrusting or grabbing body parts or moaning, so I fill the blanks inside my head while reading the stuff it wrote and it honestly works for me and I get my fix. Although I once asked it about the kinks of the characters, inspired by a nonna upthread, and because I established the personalities and stories of said characters, it gave me really convincing kinks that fit them so well it was very surprising and inspiring. Yesterday I had a conversation with it about the sexual orientation of said characters based on interactions and behaviors in canon. If your conversation and questions seem "analytical", it really gets into it and gives you what you want.

I had a phobia of ants. When i was a little kid i went on a schooltrip hiking a mountain and a big forest ant bit me on my achilles heel. It hurt like crazy and since then i was really aftarid of ants even though none ever bit me as hard as that one. Especially when there were multiple ants in one spot. I was screaming. Couple of years later i moved into a house that i later found out is full of ants. Various species of ants and they eat through concrete. So i had to get through my phobia and start killing the ants. The house can't be sealed from all the holes the ants made because of the shitty way it's built so in the warm season i just kill ants and put silicone into holes that i can reach. I'm proud of myself for gettig over ants.

Sometimes I look at the teaching subreddits out of curiosity because I have no kids/close contact with zoomers or alphas. The general consensus I see there is that things really changed during COVID but it never went back to baseline, even for kids who weren’t in school yet during the disrupted years. imo it seems more like COVID was a catalyst for intense screen addiction among both adults and children and nobody cares enough to stop it so it’s just wrecking kids.

I don't know if this makes sense, but the way I see it is that social media was the end of the 'old' web; before the advent of social media, very few people were online at all besides for things like research or communications. After social media came about, suddenly everyone is online. In the same way that social media made being online common, COVID made being chronically online common. There were always people that were chronically online, like the SJW people in the mid 2010s, but their numbers were quite small. Now, it seems like being chronically online is the new norm, especially in younger people. It's a weird dynamic.

Jag är rädd att sverige (svenska politiker det vill säga) är för jävla mesiga för att faktiskt vända på transtrenden förrän flera andra länder börjat göra det och först då kommer de i tystnad följa efter.

När jag googlade lite så hittade jag några artiklar som var arga på svenska feminister "terfs" som var emot lagen och anklagas för att vara/hänga med högerextremism osv men jag hittar aldrig några faktiska terfiga källor. Men det är ju känt att google är extremt trans-positiva och gömmer resultat de inte gillar så det beror nog en del på det.

Just so you know, there is a tipping culture in japan. Shocking for foreigners, I know, but I experienced this quite a few times. Especially if using mobile options for things like taxi, not uber.

No. 2523939

>>2523833
There was not a "tipping culture" until very recently due to the influx of Americans and possibly Canadians. Servers are paid a living wage and locals are not expected to supplement that. It's generally considered somewhat insulting and embarrassing to tip for them just doing their jobs although in rare cases they might accept it. It's just not mandatory or expected. I have never had to pay tip for a taxi, a meal, or anything and I have used apps before like GoTaxi or whatever it is.

Eh.. If by recently you mean since after COVID. It isn't mandatory or expected like you said except in circumstances where it is now like taxi services, certain entertainment services, some ryokans, and even some tour guides. Geishas have accepted things like tips before even COVID, so while it's new, it's not unheard of, depending on what you're doing. Places will not suddenly stop paying living wages in Japan either though, so that's nothing to even worry about.

GoTaxi does have a topping feature lol You can even pay them in cash for a tip. Just because you didn't do it anon, doesn't mean it's not there and it doesn't happen. Most people don't tip after meals still and I didn't either, but again it depends on what you are doing.

As the title says.
Post experiences, why you can't stand them and such.
This is NOT about your own disorder, so don't blogpost/vent, there's already a thread for that.
This thread is about mental illness you can't stand in others.
Please refrain from coming in this thread and say stupid shit like "Oh that's why nobody likes me" or "Damn seeing this thread as a [thing] sufferer makes me uncomfortable" because nobody will pity you OR to defend a specific disorder because "[thing] people are actually etc etc" because seeing patterns is not illegal. If your disorder gets posted here, cope and hide the thread, don't be a little bitch.

Autism needs to be differentiated greatly. Retarded autists that shit in diapers are different from totally functional but weird girls and both of these are different from sociopath and narc men who have extremely closed views and use the excuse to be piece of shit. All of these type of autists are very different but people claim it's a "spectrum" to avoid some kind of stigma but in reality blurs the lines and makes a giant pot of shit. All of these people need different diagnosis because all of them have different treatments (the retard type of autist needs to be trained like a dog in ABA therapy because that's the only way of communicating with them, the "weird girl" maybe needs some help with her anxiety and to survive in the world that doesn't cater to her and the sociopath autist needs to be taught basic emotions.) but people like to pretend that's all the same disorder and this is what makes the spectrum a spectrum when people can clearly see the difference. People like Musk have a lethal mix of classic rich kid entitlement + assburger + male. Sure there's a component of autism in him, but that's the least offensive thing in the mix. Either we depatologize some aspect of autism, because being "weird" is totally acceptable like a horse girl maybe just really likes horses and hates loud sound, doesn't mean it's a whole disability or we enforce greatly some aspect of it like drawing the line where it becomes a problem. I refuse to accept that all of the three examples I made are the same exact disorder.

It's not like 'people' just suddenly decided to claim it's a spectrum, the DSM and psychological establishment suddenly decided to call everyone, from a drooling retard to a slightly language-delayed person with a special interest part of the same spectrum. I think they supposedly did this for destigmatization reasons but I still don't really understand how (formerly) Asperger's and actual can't-hold-a-spoon levels of mental incapacitation can be considered the same thing. It also creates this weird problem where extremely high-functioning, adult-diagnosed 'autists' who in many cases don't even appear to be autistic get mad whenever 'low functioning' autism is represented or discussed. It was supposed to be less insensitive or more clinically useful but like you said it's kind of the opposite, how is it clinically useful to call something one disorder when you constantly have to differentiate between someone who just likes plastic lawn chairs a little too much and a person who has nonverbal and shits their diapers and can't move?

Autists are anti-social. This weird apologia in regards to autism is dumb. Autism as a disorder handicaps a person's social understanding and functioning and in turn that makes them anti-social. You see this in both women and men, except the autistic women have been female-socialized so their anti-social behaviors manifest in more discreet ways. Some autists go to therapy to treat this facet of the disorder and they learn how to be pro-social, but "actual autists" are all anti-social.

>>2524301
>Autism needs to be differentiated greatly.
We already do this - it's Levels 1 through 3. The levels aren't discussed enough and most laypeople aren't familiar with them. Aspergers and Autism being melded into ASD was a mistake. It was a theoretical innovation that wasn't practical, and that's why most people still internally consider Aspergers a separate diagnosis from autism.

Autism "levels" are bullshit because a level implies the same disorder from mild to profound. Asperger (and yes I will still call it asperger, because an aspie is not mentally retarded by definition) is not "level 1" where the "level 3" is a drooling monster that flaps his hands because if we categorize them by functionality, then Chris Chan is a level 1 on in the same box as weird people but geniuses just because they are not mentally retarded. Yes, Chris Chan has some kind of mental retardation, but is, sadly, high functioning since he's independent, can drive and can have a job. 3 definitions is not enough, the only solution would be bringing back Asperger and Kanner autism and then giving them levels, for example Asperger type 1 to 3, where 1 is weird kid with sensory problems but overall functional and 3 is socially stunted sociopath with no grasp on reality like Chris Chan.
This would also speed up the therapy process and put those people in more advanced and tailored therapies, autism is not curable but can be corrected through emotional management, an Asperger doesn't need ABA therapy which is deserved for kanners. The distinction is very much needed.
