Censoring a meme on the internet is stupid.
Shit, I just bounce back and forth between the 2 depending on how I feel today
Saaaame
Sometimes it’s both, where you mask to seem like the first, while being the second.
Fuck
Fuck it, I don’t seem to have AD(H)D. That’s why I’ve spent the better part of the day recharging so I could pretend to be social in the evening while on vacation with the in-laws and a 2-year old niece. I can’t fucking filter her screams, the noise of having 7 adults around me and I’m so fucking glad of not having kids myself.
fuck.
we can just say cuss words.
fuckfuck
fucking thank you.
You’re so fucking welcome
Fuck me, this is relieving.
fuck
After years and years of hard work and therapy, I’m now a hilarious mix of the two.
You might ask, “How is your sink so empty and your kitchen so clean, but your clean laundry is piled so high that this is probably your entire wardrobe here on the floor next to the dryer?”
Well, I would answer, “How did you get in my house and would you like something to eat?”
I climbed through the window, because I thought I saw a kitty, but turns out is just a pillow. and yes
If you check under the blanket next to the pillow, there is a sleeping kitty. He is greedy for pets and will meow at you.
This is a trap. If you start petting him, you’re never allowed to stop.
Get out of my house!
…You didn’t even offer me a snack for the road! What kind of host are you?
Also I brought tea bags. They’re quite nice.
A good one for those invited! But I’ll cut you some slack since you brought tea.
This was posted WITHOUT the dumb fucking censoring earlier today…
Sometimes I’m too tired to unmask.

Sometimes I’m too tired to mask.
FUCK
You can say fuck on the Internet!
For fucks sake.Cussing is a goddamn dirty habit and you should cut that fucking shit out.
no u cant the lemmy cuss brigade will arrest u, my uncle said so and he works at nintendo
idk if working at nintendo is a fitting punishment for saying fuck
My Nintendo works for U.N.C.L.E.
Joke’s into him: I’m into it.
Filtering swear words is a dark path the masses are willfully following. It’s a subtle way to see if they can use AI to force us to change how we speak to align with a worldview. People need to fucking resist it.
Interesting take. Care to elaborate what role AI plays in this context? Recognizing swear words in image files, I guess?
Also I’m willfully using more swear words on Lemmy if it means they won’t farm my comments for training their fucking piss shit AI without my goddamn consent. Horsefuckers!
It’s using AI to filter or reduce interactions with words puritans and Chinese censors find “offensive” but to the other responses point, it goes deeper. They train the AI not to cuss, not to be able to discuss sex at all, and to avoid topics that the developers’ companies or countries don’t like. But we’re never shown what they push for or are guarded from by the companies releasing them, so the shift is subtle.
May I ask what “Chinese censors” have to do with anything? It’s completely feasible to me that this is an all-American problem, imposed on us for the sake of brand friendliness; same as it’s been for other instances of censorship like network censors on television or the YouTube adpocalypse; and carried over into our language now more generally to end up in a place like lemmy. It’s perfectly explained by the attitudes and surface-level friendliness of “polite society” in western culture. I don’t see the point in using a foreign adversary to explain it away, or pretending that censorship is anything different when it’s done by a government vs private entities that shouldn’t have that kind of unchecked authority over what we’re allowed to communicate in the first place. I also have no reason to believe China gives any fucks about the vulgarity of English speakers on the English internet. It just seems weird to me to bring them up here.
The underlying tech doesn’t care about swear words. But, from what I hear, the “AI” models and interfaces that are being marketed for general use have been intentionally trained not to emit such words, and may even be blinded to those words by their creators. I haven’t verified it, but supposedly adding “fucking” to your Google / Bing search query will completely disable their “AI” generated results, e.g.
Don’t fucking say that word please
deleted by creator
There’s also the type that constantly has extra (possibly clarifying) thoughts in the middle of their typed sentences. So, they use parentheses to add those clarifications because having to retype the sentence would derail their train of thought and they’d then completely fail to convey anything.
So, so much. Then realizing you typed two paragraphs replying to a text. Then spend 30 minutes on full re-edits until your self doubt makes you eventually delete it all and simply respond “ok” where normal people only take 10 seconds to type that and yet you get annoyed by their lack of communication. And thus the self hatred spiral continues, as ever.
I use dashes - like this - and feel called out.
Listen there is nothing wrong with having used both commas, dashes and parentheses in the same comment. It’s perfectly normal.
Right?
Where is my Oxford comma?
Dunno ask Vampire Weekend.
Don’t forget to add brackets along with the parenthesis so you can have a clarifying thought during your clarifying thought
Use m-dashes and no spaces, and you’ll be doing it right. The m-dash—which look like this—is the appropiate punctuation for this purpose.
I absolutely detest that kind (the kind who writes a giant parenthetical in the middle if their sentence before one or two words at the end. Just put the fucking parenthetical after the sentence! jfc) of person.
I don’t appreciate being attacked like this.
got that built in bottom text
Some try to compensate for that by editing sentences to remove it, but then only change like half the sentence, breaking it without realizing.
Huh. I guess I’m the fuckit type. I got no patience for pretending to not be me. Not anymore.
I’m one of the “fuck it lmao” types and I wouldn’t change it for anything. Life is suffering, but I’m also very easily amused and thrive in chaos.
I had to set up a project management software to manage my housework. That’s normal, and not a coping mechanism.
Goddamnit, another thing I do to cope. I keep asking my doc how to get diagnosed, I just keep getting antidepressants prescribed which do not help.
So here’s some important facts I’ve learned from my doctors over recent years. Keep in mind, I’m not a doctor, and this information might be out of date (but I don’t think it is).
People with ADHD are often comorbid with depression, so if a doctor doesn’t treat the depression first, and gives the person with ADHD the medication to focus, it can result in the person with ADHD having enough focus to successfully make an attempt on their own life.
Fact two: many persons with ADHD doesn’t make enough seratonin on their own to function, which means if you’re being prescribed SSRIs, you don’t have enough seratonin to selectively reuptake inhibit.
But since the antidepressants for ADHD are a different class of drugs, many doctors will run through the ‘standard’ list before they get to the stuff that helps ADHDers. And then once they’ve done that, and ruled out all the things, they’ll move to “unconventional” treatment. Partly, this is because the process of trying different antidepressants can rule out things other than ADHD, and partly because they seem to want to rule out every other possible thing in addition to ADHD, before treating the ADHD. And if I were to guess, it’s because giving a person ADHD medication who has a secret something else (like bipolar as an example) even though the person has ADHD, the ADHD medication can worsen the other condition to such a condition that it’s better not to give ADHD medication at all.
This is why the process takes so fuckin long. And a couple years ago, I would’ve said it was stupid and a massive waste of time and harmful to the person with ADHD. But a year ago a friend of mine with bipolar was prescribed stimulant medication and his life absolutely went off the rails as a result, and seeing that first hand… I’d rather low and slow and not have to experience something like that.
Sorry for the word wall. I hope this helps!
This does help, and thank you. In truth, I don’t even want medication, I’m middle aged and this is the brain I’m used to. Would just be nice to understand myself a little better and maybe start getting some better strategies in place.
It’s just grating that every time I ask, I’m redirected. Maybe they just think I’m pill seeking.
I didn’t get diagnosed with ADHD (didn’t even suspect I had it) until I was mid-thirties, and I gotta say… now that I have the medication, I’m glad I have it. It was a long road to get there but I mean, it’s nice to know, you know?
If you want, my DMs are open. I’m always here if you wanna vent. ♥
As someone with severe ADHD this sounds like a great idea. Management is talking about moving me up into a project management role so I’ve been studying the concept and tools, I can totally see how this could help. Thanks for the idea!
Would recommend. It’s a lot of work up front: room by room, task by task, repetition rate by repetition rate, priority by priority. Then I found I forgot some things and have to add them. I’m constantly working by what’s the highest-priority>most over-due task. But things are getting done.
Before, I’d notice the shower would need cleaning stepping into it and forget the shower needed cleaning stepping out of it. Now, the shower still always seems to still need cleaning, but only on the software, I never step in the shower and think it needs cleaning… Rarely anyway.
Yeah I’m definitely going to give it a try, thanks again for the idea.
How the fuck do you get enough energy to use project management software to manage your housework?
I don’t understand? I press the link on my phone’s home page, that takes me to the “things due today page” and then press the little tick box to say I’ve cleaned the shower. After a time the “clean the shower” task will be due again and so the cycle continues. If I’m honest things are usually over due, but it still means that the shower is getting cleaned more frequently than it did before.
Before, I noticed the shower needed cleaning just as I was about to get in it. The shower would then stop existing just after I got out of it, but a little dirtier.
Trello?

I’m held together by anxiety, caffeine and an unhealthy amount of self hate.
I also have 7 list, a board, 3 reminder app and leave sticky notes everywhere but I least I’m productive ( please help )
