"Yeah but I hope you don’t mind me venting about racists online and love island.
Two completely different grades of rant there buddy…"
Yeah I’m one minute hearing James O’Brien and other commentators being shockingly stupid then I’m watching Love island and I’m seeing some horrible men. It’s all go |

Not to take over OP’s post at all and maybe better served as a fresh thread…but what I don’t understand, is that AI is amazingly good at finding information and producing essays etc. Surely it can simply be engineered to detect racist comments on social media, block them and report the sender before the recipient has even seen it? 🤷🏻♂️ |

Because generative AI, which is what people mean by AI nowadays, has no understanding of what it spews out. It's autocomplete at scale. Sentiment analysis / natural language processing is a separate sub-field, but it's not reliable enough to be used as a blanket filter - especially because we want to avoid false positives.
On topic, I'm happy to be a venting buddy for anyone. I think I may be one to some people I know, so I have experience  |

How long can an ex stone wall you and be a shit human before you put them on public blast I wonder. It's sending me through the wall. I'm not sleeping, I'm struggling to regulate my eating, it's affecting my mental health. I am so close to loosing my mind. |

First you have to set the framework for venting. Are just shouting into the void, do we want advice, do we want validation if true, do we want validation even if it’s not true. The best venting for me is where we are all swearing along as cathartic expression of our frustration.
I really need to try a rage room! |

Recently I just need to get it out, and be validated I'm allowed to be upset and angry. The stress comes in ebbs and flows. Some days I don't think about it. Then it comes to the surface and I just rage and stew for several hours. I will be fine and I will get over it, I will not stoop to publicly naming and shaming, but jesus it's hard sometimes. |

When its affecting you like that then not long, look after your own mental well being and let them deal with the fallout x |

"I stick my vents on my status, at least I get it off my chest for the day,just hope I don't need to vent more than once !!"
That's a good idea! I don't have anyone 'neutral' I can vent too - might give that a go 🤔 |

it could easily. But it's more convenient for 'the powers at be' to have you fighting a race war instead of a class war. I mean after France and Russia they have learnt their lesson |

Breakups are very hard 😑
If they are on fab, I'd start with blocking them - or even take a break to let some of the emotions ebb xx
All I can say is that you cannot control the other person, so you need to concentrate on yourself and rebuild without needing them in your life. This may mean finding new friends / hobbies / activities
I hope you feel better |

That’s so tough.
The mental battle of not wanting to put them on blast but also not being able to cope with what they’re putting you through.
Sending you strength to get through it. |

I'm emotionally very over the break up, there's some residual logistics that are doing my head in. I'm better after getting some sleep, just had a stab of stress and anger last night! Hoping for a good night's sleep tonight and a resolution in a few months. Hopefully. |

Sleep may take its time to get back to normal.
Especially if your mind is doing overtime x |

Morning OP, I've been in a similar situation (albeit I appreciate every one is unique) and it's not a nice thing to go through.
I ended up blocking quite a few people (friends include) to block it out and concentrate on myself because the anxiety was sending me fuether west than a saloon bar.
As hard as it is, try to make 'you' your number one priority because we can't fix the world if we're not right ourselves.
You have a good support network around you, judging by this thread, and we're all happy to help in any way we can (myself included).
Hope you feel better soon 🧡 |

Come back and vent if you need to  |

I think you’ve answered your own question. Because it sounds like it’s already gone on far too long!
Don’t hold back let them have both barrels!!
Hopefully that will calm your racing head for abit. X |

Feel free, but I'm a silver linings person so, I may point out the bits that are good, as well as agreeing that the guy you hate is a prick and the girl who keeps flicking her hair when you walk past is a c*nt.

There's a lot to be said for the central idea of Patricia Highsmith's novel, Strangers On A Train.
Not that I'm suggesting that Strangers In A Forum should be exchanging private messages with details of folks that upset them... |

Are they looking for that as a reaction, so they can label you in a certain way? |

you're welcome to vent to me OP
there are days when I don't have the energy to deal with it, and so I'll not engage with it until I'm ready to, so don't take it as I'm ignoring you, but when I do have the energy, I'm all ears to listen away |
