Potato Man, surely you understand that you (a lonely Twitter dork with a cartoon profile picture and no girlfriend or wife of your own) are never and will never be in a place to mock people who are actually happy and have, you know, friends in real life.

And just to be clear: LMAO no. You would never say anything you post to a person's face.

Ignoring that that would require human interaction, you understand everyone would laugh you out of the room.

It will be a long thread but I guess I don't have anyone to talk now.



I've been seeing a therapist for quite some time now.



Since childhood, I've had to deal with feelings of inadequacy in many areas because I had a father who was success-oriented.



I had a really tough time in high school and couldn't study for the university entrance exam, so I had to go to a mediocre university in STEM field. This had such a negative impact on my mood that I couldn't study at college classes either, and my GPA was low. Somehow, I graduated and found a job. Years later, I had a really good job, but I felt very inadequate because of the university I graduated from. Neither my job nor my salary were enough for me.



So, instead of enrolling a second university, I decided to pursue a master's degree at a good university. Due to my undergraduate GPA, I couldn't get into a top-tier graduate program, but I was still accepted into a reputable university. I had a really great experience in graduate school. I consistently got the highest grades in my classes and graduated with an excellent master thesis. After that, because my advisor was a brilliant scientist, I continued on to a PhD at the same university, and this time I had the opportunity to work on international projects and publish articles on journals.



It seemed like I had achieved success in academic career after a rough undergraduate period, and I was at peace with myself.



My therapist didn't graduate from a prestigious school, but I think she's really successful. Frankly, that inspired me too. And that's why therapy became more meaningful to me. I overcome so many traumas of mine. I used to be reluctant to even meet my friends who graduated from good universities because my feelings of inadequacy were so strong around them. But I thought I had overcome that until last week's session.



Last week, I was really looking forward to my session. I'd had a great week. The session started, and my therapist asked me how my week had been. I started talking, and 10 minutes later, she suddenly mentioned another patient. She said that another patient of her is extremely smart and that she had a lot of faith in her potential, and that such a smart patient liked her therapy methods.



Frankly, I froze, and it was as if my father was standing in front of me, accusing me of failure and comparing me to someone else. Because my father used to talk a lot about other children's successes.



When I heard this, I went into defense mode. At that moment, I really lost it and said that I am so successful, that I had done so many projects, and that she was exaggerating about the person she was talking about. My therapist suddenly mentioned the school that her patient had graduated from and her score on the university entrance exam.



I couldn't pull myself together, and those words hit me so hard. All those academic publications, international projects, work experience, and graduate education suddenly seemed worthless, and I remembered how I felt years ago. How the school you attended for your bachelor's degree and the score you got on the university entrance exam were everything. You go to therapy, and even in your safe space, you feel uncomfortable.



The session ended somehow, and the my therapist treated the incident as completely normal and didn't make a big deal out of it. But I was in a terrible state after the session. I couldn't sleep that night. The next day, I had no appetite and couldn't eat. The idea that the patient she mentioned was superior to me and that no matter what I did, I could never be as good as her weighed heavily on me, and I felt great sadness.



The next day, I made another appointment with my therapist and wanted to have another therapy session for this sadness I was experiencing. When she saw my request, she texted me and asked how I was doing. I explained the situation to her, and she defended herself. She said she was her describing success of her patient because I was defending myself. She said it was normal and, of course, made many statements saying that the woman was not superior to me. We messaged for almost an hour, and finally, she said, "If it makes you feel better, that woman is currently unemployed."



Honestly, this made me feel better because when I was a child, my father would talk about other children's successes, and hearing that they had failed an exam somehow comforted me. I felt the exact same emotions.



My therapist said that the woman is much older than me, that we weren't in the same period, and that she only said her patient was smart to give an example about the effect of therapy.



Frankly, I would have been happier if she had just focused on me and not brought other people into it. Now I'm wondering if she's using what I say to comfort others.



For the first time in my life, my therapy triggered a trauma. I've been trying to get over this issue for so many years, and now I feel terrible. I feel worthless and can't focus on anything I do.



I know it's a long post, but I'm really depressed. I know I can go to another therapist but after so many sessions I don't know if I can do that because she knows much about me at it was really helpful before the last session.

Due to his reclusive habits and fluctuations in his physical appearance, many rumors circulated about Cimino over the course of his life, with several claiming he had dressed in drag, gotten plastic surgery, or even undergone a sex change.[9][250] Beginning in 1997, a columnist with Variety magazine devoted an item to dispelling unspecified "reports" that he had changed his name to "Michelle" and his gender via surgery.[251] Cimino explained that he had not had nor intended to have a sex change and that he was not a cross-dresser,[20] suspecting a former girlfriend of his to have started the rumors.

There's probably a whole host of reasons why Dems lost. The only thing really certain is that, just by the math of the FPTP and the two-party system, as well as the fact that both parties are capitalist, you're always going to have this kind of flip-flopping just as a statistical inevitability, particularly in a populous that's as undereducated as America's.

If it's a "statistical inevitability" then why are so many incumbents re-elected (95+%) and so many races non-competitive (including the Presidential race in most states)? 

And was the Dems gaining in the House while Trump won also a "statistical inevitability"? Was the Democrats holding Congress for 60 years a "statistical inevitability"?

I don’t want to defend Borderlands… but:

Pretty predictable. The franchise had its heydays in the BL2 days but most of those fans have aged out of gaming (me)  in general, we may pick up one or two games a year but its gonna be Battlefield 6 and Expedition 33, not Borderlands 4.

Why are you in a video game forum? 

Borderlands 3 was a mess and nobody I know "liked" the game, I played like 10 hours, hated it, and completely lost interest in the franchise. Any positive vibes towards the franchise got murdered by the shitty movie which I didn't watch.

Those games sold like hot cakes when the film was released, if only because people wanted to remember a franchise they liked before, after it got destroyed in film form.

For better or worse for worse, people like Borderlands, B3 got a ton of sales and DLC even if people hated the shit out of the story. You are the minority in that regard

You can't keep putting out trash and hope people will come back, it doesn't matter if BL4 is the greatest game of the year, many people have completely detached from the franchise. Rebuilding takes a lot of effort, time, patience, and accepting of losses for a while and nothing about Gearbox/Pitchford feels like they are willing to operate that way.

Overall, I don’t disagree.  

But I think you are overestimating how many people are detached from the franchise over optimization issues and price point.

The next franchise that is going to suffer from this problem is Call of Duty, its pretty easy to predict sales of COD 2025 are gonna be less than expected. Battlefield 6 drew the people that both these games are chasing and with the economy the way it is, you literally couldn't do anything to get their money.

I also think is going to sell less, but I also think people are overestimating Battlefield 6 as the reason for this.

Soyface.

[D3RANG3D]

I heard that supposedly that google/youtube suggested these clickbait soyface thumbnails to creators...

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

Maybe not...

AI Overview

No, YouTube does not "like" the "soyface" thumbnails

; it's a trend driven by the platform's algorithm, which favors high click-through rates (CTR). Creators use these exaggerated facial expressions because testing has shown they get more views, leading to a self-perpetuating cycle where the algorithm prioritizes these videos in searches and feeds. However, this trend may be declining as creators like Mr. Beast experiment with alternatives and find them to be more effective, as noted in a Builder Society discussion.

    High click-through rates: Thumbnails with faces, especially extreme expressions, tend to get higher CTRs. This is because faces are naturally attention-grabbing and can evoke an emotional response that makes viewers want to click.

    Algorithmic feedback loop: When a video with a certain thumbnail style gets more clicks, the YouTube algorithm shows it to more people, creating a cycle where the style becomes more popular and is seen as "successful" by the algorithm.

    A/B testing and creator influence: Creators, like Mr. Beast, discovered through A/B testing that these thumbnails performed well. This led other creators to adopt the style, spreading the trend across the platform.

    Potential for decline: While the trend was effective for a time, some creators have found that viewers are growing tired of it and that different styles may now perform better.

    Clickbait strategy: The use of "soyface" or shocked expressions is a form of clickbait designed to grab attention, even if the video content itself doesn't live up to the hype.

It's one thing to be insecure, it's another to mentally and emotionally fall apart at the sheer mention of another person's accomplishments. That's a deep-seated developmental issue.

Never tell people your Kryptonite.

[benji]

I had a really tough time in high school and couldn't study for the university entrance exam, so I had to go to a mediocre university in STEM field. This had such a negative impact on my mood that I couldn't study at college classes either, and my GPA was low. Somehow, I graduated and found a job. Years later, I had a really good job, but I felt very inadequate because of the university I graduated from. Neither my job nor my salary were enough for me.

So, instead of enrolling a second university, I decided to pursue a master's degree at a good university.

Okay, so the first has nothing to do with the university he graduated from, it's because he clearly nearly failed out and continued these practices into his career.

Why would you enroll at a "second university" after graduating from one? What would be the use of getting another undergraduate degree? He did a totally normal thing, go to a better school for grad school. He then claims to have been incredibly successful and now has a PhD from a good university.

But told about some other chick getting a good entrance exam score he's decided to go to war with his therapist for some reason. Dude, you showed it doesn't matter, you showed you achieved and now should know better. Why isn't he using his excuse? That he couldn't study and sucked at high school? Maybe the girl epic crammed because she's an expert test taker who can't do anything else? Makes me doubt his excuse.

My therapist didn't graduate from a prestigious school, but I think she's really successful. Frankly, that inspired me too. And that's why therapy became more meaningful to me.

At that moment, I really lost it and said that I am so successful, that I had done so many projects, and that she was exaggerating about the person she was talking about.

You go to therapy, and even in your safe space, you feel uncomfortable.

The idea that the patient she mentioned was superior to me and that no matter what I did, I could never be as good as her weighed heavily on me, and I felt great sadness.

Frankly, I would have been happier if she had just focused on me and not brought other people into it. Now I'm wondering if she's using what I say to comfort others.

I get the impression he thinks the purpose of therapy is for someone to puff his ego and tell him he's so much better than the other children rather than provide assistance as he works through why these things are wrong and he doesn't need to care about them.

[Boredfrom]

The idea that the patient she mentioned was superior to me and that no matter what I did, I could never be as good as her weighed heavily on me, and I felt great sadness.

Asshole, she didn’t tell you this to make you feel worse, she told you this to motivate you. And if you don’t feel that way, tell her how you feel before going to cry to ERA to ruin any progress you have made.
