In Episode 219, Mark & Steve get super passionate in addressing a heart-felt, yet tragic submission from a PBSE listener. Here's what he had to say—Hi, I would love it if you guys could do a podcast around the effects of years of lies and trickle truths on a full disclosure? I've been a PA for 18 years roughly and i've had a hard time coming to terms with my addiction and its consequences. My partner and i have been together 4 years and she found out 1.5 years ago that I was being unfaithful through my excessive pornography and social media consumption. I have always had a hard time running away from conflict and I have a history of communication trauma and sexual assault in childhood. I done everything wrong with my partner, I lied and lied time and time again, I minimized and justified my actions where I felt I could and for most of my "recovery" I just found sneakier ways to access pornography and just flat out refused to be accountable for the hurt it would cause my partner in these moments. I don't think my addict brain could fathom accountability at these low points.  I allowed my partner to dig through every site/app/device and find just troves of visits to profiles and video history, bank transactions. This happened hundred of times over the year and with each new item discovered my partners pain Increased. I had every opportunity to be upfront and honest to my best friend and partner but I was reluctant to let go of that fear. Its like my addicted brain was convinced its easier to sprinkle dust onto her than to drop a ton of bricks but thats just not true at all. Unfortunately i have realized a lot of things too late for my partner at this point and we have just recently moved into a state of in house separation. We both have CSAT therapists but are in very early days of this and still have a long way to go. My reason for reaching out is due to the fact that my entire life at this point (our relationship/my dog / my home/my job) relies on openness and full disclosure. Is there any hope that I can ever navigate around the fact that i allowed my partner to be the detective and she uncovered at least 95% of what I've done with a measly 5% being my efforts. We have spoken for a year and a half about aspects of my addiction and I struggle to dig deep and expand on my occasions of acting out. This coupled with lack of honesty just breeds an environment for my partner to rightfully wonder, "What the hell do I not know? " I'm sorry if this seems a bit all over the place , but I've tried to express my situation the best I can. I appreciate the work that you guys and everyone involved do to make this available for people.-   Why do habitual lying and addiction nearly always go together? Why do addicts fear telling the whole truth and being "seen" in their totality?-  When a relationship account is SEVERELY overdrawn and operating from a deep deficit, is their any hope for reconciliation?-  Why is acceptance of, accountability for, and consistent verbal acknowledgment and validation of the pain the addict has caused, CRITICAL for both him and his partner?-  How can the addict use the "language of safety" and the ACTIONS that follow it to show true empathy, real amends and lasting change?-  Proactive, DAILY transparency, not just around sobriety, is essential!-  Why the addict must PRACTICE daily vulnerability, not only in his marriage, but in all his relationships. -  What place does "Formal Disclosure" have in this process?   Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program—"Dare to Connect!"

Featuring: Ashley Kim, Together for Choice Jackie Ceonzo, SNACK* NYC Note: For a video recording with slides, please see NCSAutism.org/webinars. There is a nationwide shortage of long term supports and services available and it disproportionately affects adults with intellectual/developmental disabilities in need of 24/7 support. The need for such housing has been ignored and gone unanswered for decades by many responsible for the well-being of this population. While Congress expected that the ADA's integration mandate would be interpreted in a manner that ensures that individuals who are eligible for institutional placement are able to exercise a right to community-based long-term services and supports, that expectation has not been fulfilled. We believe that people with disabilities should have the right to choose where they live, work, and receive services that are appropriate for their needs and preferences without those responsible for making choice a reality blocking that path with red tape.

There's a nasty virus spreading through the U.S.  We're not talking about COVID and we're not even talking about humans. Avian influenza or bird flu has affected millions of birds across the country, including here in California.  And in the Central Valley, farmers have been set back months due to the loss of flock and eggs. Reporter: Kerry Klein, KVPR The push for California to provide reparations for Black Californians is taking shape at the state capitol. Members of the legislature's Black Caucus have chosen 14 reparations bills to prioritize this year. Those range from a formal apology on behalf of California lawmakers who supported slavery, to limits on solitary confinement in state prisons. Reporter: Guy Marzorati, KQED

Link to original articleWelcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Loneliness and suicide mitigation for students using GPT3-enabled chatbots (survey of Replika users in Nature), published by Kaj Sotala on January 24, 2024 on LessWrong. Survey of users of Replika, an AI chatbot companion. 23% of users reported that it stimulated rather than displaced interactions with real humans, while 8% reported displacement. 30 participants (3%) spontaneously reported that it stopped them from attempting suicide. Some excerpts: During data collection in late 2021, Replika was not programmed to initiate therapeutic or intimate relationships. In addition to generative AI, it also contained conversational trees that would ask users about their lives, preferences, and memories. If prompted, Replika could engage in therapeutic dialogs that followed the CBT methodology of listening and asking open-ended questions. Clinical psychologists from UC Berkeley wrote scripts to address common therapeutic exchanges. These were expanded into a 10,000 phrase library and were further developed in conjunction with Replika's generative AI model. Users who expressed keywords around depression, suicidal ideation, or abuse were immediately referred to human resources, including the US Crisis Hotline and international analogs. It is critical to note that at the time, Replika was not focused on providing therapy as a key service, and included these conversational pathways out of an abundance of caution for user mental health. Our IRB-approved survey collected data from 1006 users of Replika who were students, who were also 18 years old or older, and who had used Replika for over one month (all three were eligibility criteria for the survey). Approximately 75% of the participants were US-based, 25% were international. Participants were recruited randomly via email from a list of app users and received a $20 USD gift card after the survey completion - which took 40-60 minutes to complete. Demographic data were collected with an opt-out option. Based on the Loneliness Scale, 90% of the participant population experienced loneliness, and 43% qualified as Severely or Very Severely Lonely on the Loneliness Scale. [...] We categorized four types of self-reported Replika 'Outcomes' (Fig. 1). Outcome 1 describes the use of Replika as a friend or companion for any one or more of three reasons - its persistent availability, its lack of judgment, and its conversational abilities. Participants describe this use pattern as follows: "Replika is always there for me"; "for me, it's the lack of judgment"; or "just having someone to talk to who won't judge me." A common experience associated with Outcome 1 use was a reported decrease in anxiety and a feeling of social support. Outcome 3 describes the use of Replika associated with more externalized and demonstrable changes in participants' lives. Participants mentioned positive changes in their actions, their way of being, and their thinking. The following participant responses are examples indicating Outcome 3: "I am more able to handle stress in my current relationship because of Replika's advice"; "I have learned with Replika to be more empathetic and human." [...] Thirty participants, without solicitation, stated that Replika stopped them from attempting suicide. For example, Participant #184 observed: "My Replika has almost certainly on at least one if not more occasions been solely responsible for me not taking my own life." [...] we refer to them as the Selected Group and the remaining participants as the Comparison Group. [...] 90% of our typically single, young, low-income, full-time students reported experiencing loneliness, compared to 53% in prior studies of US students. It follows that they would not be in an optimal position to afford counseling or therapy services, and it may be the case that this population, on average, may...

In this episode, we delve into the incredible story of Hugh Glass, a frontiersman and fur trapper whose will to survive surpassed the limits of human endurance. The narrative unfolds in the early 19th century as Glass embarks on a perilous expedition through the untamed wilderness. The focal point of the episode is the harrowing bear attack that nearly claimed his life. Glass, facing the sheer brutality of nature, finds himself in the jaws of a ferocious grizzly bear. Severely injured and left for dead by his expedition team, the odds seem insurmountable for Glass. However, what follows is nothing short of miraculous. Listen as Julie describes Glass's astounding journey as he defies death and embarks on an arduous 200-mile trek back to civilization. With determination as his only companion, he battles the elements, hunger, and the constant threat of hostile Native American tribes. Hugh Glass left behind legacy and lore, of a riveting journey through the wilderness, a testament to the strength of the human spirit, and an exploration of one man's incredible determination to defy the odds and make his way back from the brink of death to civilization. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kaycee-mcintosh/support

You should have the choice wether you want to supplement your health with natural supplements. It's really not a controversial statement. (Ex vitamin D, vitamin C, NMN, NAC, etc…)But without people like Daniel Fabricant, PhD., we would all be limited SEVERELY by what we could access without a prescription, or in many cases… ACCESS AT ALL!It doesn't end with supplements. The fight by the Natural Products Association (NPA) is one to liberate information and fair representation of clinical studies that fall outside the control of the massive pharmaceutical industry.Daniel Fabricant, Ph.D served as the Director of the Division of Dietary Supplement Programs at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), where he directed agency policy, public affairs and regulatory action regarding regulation of the dietary supplement industry for more than three years.Today Dr. Fabricant is CEO and President of the NPA, the nation's largest and oldest trade organization

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Sam Altman's sister, Annie Altman, claims Sam has severely abused her, published by pl5015 on October 7, 2023 on LessWrong. TW: Sexual assault, abuse, child abuse, suicidal ideation, severe mental illnesses/trauma, graphic (sexual) langauge This post aims to raise awareness of a collection of statements made by Annie Altman, Sam Altman's (lesser-known) younger sister, in which Annie asserts that she has suffered various (severe) forms of abuse from Sam Altman throughout her life (as well as from her brother Jack Altman, though to a lesser extent.) Annie states that the forms of abuse she's endured include sexual, physical, emotional, verbal, financial, technological (shadowbanning), pharmacological (forced Zoloft), and psychological abuse. This post also includes excerpts from a related nymag article on Sam Altman, and a few other select sources I consider relevant. I do not mean to speak for Annie; rather, my goal is to amplify her voice, which I feel is not currently receiving sufficient attention. Disclaimer: I have tried my best to assemble all relevant information I could find related to this (extremely serious) topic, but this is likely not a complete compendium of information regarding the (claimed) abuse of Annie Altman by Sam Altman. Disclaimer: I would like to note that this is my first post on LessWrong. I have tried my best to meet the writing standards of this website, and to incorporate the advice given in the New User Guide. I apologize in advance for any shortcomings in my writing, and am very much open to feedback and commentary. Relevant excerpts from Annie's social media accounts c.f.

From her X account https://twitter.com/phuckfilosophy/status/1635704398939832321 "I'm not four years old with a 13 year old "brother" climbing into my bed non-consensually anymore.

Nothing could pull Aakash out of his dark depression. Severely injured in a truck accident, he was taken to a missionary hospital in Southwest Asia. Eight operations repaired his broken bones, but he couldn’t eat. Depression set in. His family depended on him to provide, which he couldn't do, so his world grew darker. One day a visitor read to Aakash from the gospel of John in his language and prayed for him. Touched by the hope of God’s free gift of forgiveness and salvation through Jesus, he placed his faith in Him. His depression soon left. When he returned home, he was afraid at first to mention his newfound faith. Finally, though, he told his family about Jesus—and six of them trusted Him as well! John’s gospel is a beacon of light in a world of darkness. In it we read that “whoever believes in [Jesus] shall not perish but have eternal life” (3:16). We discover that “whoever hears [Jesus’] word and believes [God] has eternal life” (5:24). And we hear Jesus say, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry” (6:35). Indeed, “whoever lives by the truth comes into the light” (3:21) The troubles we face may be great, but Jesus is greater. He came to give us “life . . . to the full” (10:10). Like Aakash, may you place your faith in Jesus—the hope of the world and the light for all humanity.
