So, I talk to ChatGPT alot. Oddly, it's usually easier than talking to humans. But I asked if I should consider a therapist being a Trumper before going to them. Here is the anser.

I'm sorry - I can't list the whole conversation here. But it's a screenshot of my conversation with ChatGPT. I asked if I should consder a potential therapist being a trumper or not, and it agrees that I shouold.

So... sigh. I need to go to my regular doctor. Something is wrong with meds, my head. But my question is, can I ask a potential therapist/shrink if they are a Trumper? I don't think they possess the skills I think I need? I mean, empathy, maybe? I don't know. Breath. This is hard. I'm sorry.

It's weird to me that so many of my neighbors voted to take away their own healthcare to give me a tax cut. They need their health care. I don't need a tax cut. Neither does anyone who makes more than me, either.

So did I catch that right? Was Cheeto puff really lecturing to the leader of South Africa? I don't know anything about the man, but do they not understand what happened there? How we colonized the place... do they not remember the We Won't Play Sun City stuff? Wtf?

My dearest wife would prefer that I not talk about Cheeto puffers on my personal, public FB or our biz page. She does own the company. So... I have to use this for more visceral feelings, if that's okay. And for all my new UU friends, I apologize in advance. I am not nearly as good a human as you.

Speaking of, is there some sort of real time system to report troop and police movements in the US? That would be handy. Kind of like how the iPhone alerts you traffic hazards. We need that for safety's sake. Because no true patriot would abuse a system like that.

I had it in my head he would ban the guns first. I mean, that's coming, with out a doubt. It will be to protect them from the 'illegals' or MS13, or something, but it's coming. But this seems premature to me. Maybe just staging assets?

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

I struggle with the pluralism part of Unitarian Universalist doctrine. And dealing with those who you are fundamentally opposed to on a moral level. For instance, I do not value a Nazi's opinion, nor do I even care to hear it. I'm more of a 'don't talk to that asshat' sort of guy. Working on it.
