'Horribly unethical': startup experimented on suicidal teens on social media with chatbot
“According to a preprint describing the study, when Koko’s algorithm detected people using ‘crisis-related’ language on such partner platforms as Tumblr, they were funneled to Koko’s own platform, where they were presented with a privacy policy and terms of service outlining that their data could be used for research purposes ...
“When Motherboard used Koko’s peer support tool, one of the four options offered by the chatbot, it asked us if we needed help with ‘Dating, Friendships, Work, School, Family, Eating Disorders, LGBTQ+, Discrimination, or Other,’ then asked us to write down our problem and tag our ‘most negative thought’ about it, then sent that information to someone else on the Koko platform. The advice that Koko gave about a non-communicative partner was, ‘You should just dump him if he’s not texting you. Just tell him he sucks.’ Generally, people seeking help on the Koko platform are also asked anonymously give advice to other users on Koko. Immediately after asking for help ourselves, we were given the following conundrum to solve, posted by another user: ‘i feel so exhausted. im autoromantic and autosexual and struggling to cope. i keep going though periods of being comfortable with my sexuality and my relationship with myself, but right now im struggling. i feel disgusting and narcissistic for loving myself’ ...
“Many researchers and psychologists were appalled by the experiment, not least because it potentially put at-risk people at further risk.
“‘Completely, horribly unethical. Mucking around in an experimental manner with unproven interventions on potentially suicidal persons is just awful,’ Arthur Caplan, a professor of bioethics at New York University, told Motherboard.”

You Are Enough
Reflecting on it now, it seems rather astonishing that I was taught by a religion that we are inherently sinful and wicked, and that we need someone else to make us whole. This teaching emphasized our flaws and imperfections. It’s understandable why so many people feel unable to meet such incredibly unattainable standards. Just a reminder: you are amazing just as you are. You are enough. And you…

Ukrainian, Lesson 3: Comforting and supportive phrases in Ukrainian

Мені дуже шкода, що це відбувається (Men-ee doo-zhe shkoda shcho tse vid-boo-vah-yet-sia) - I am really sorry that it is happening (now)
Сподіваюся, ти (та твоя сім`я) в безпеці (Spo-dee-vah-you-sia, ty (ta tvoia sim-ya) v bez-pet-see) - I hope you (and your family) are safe (informal)
Мої співчуття (Moyee speev-choo-tia) - My condolences

Sadly, many in the Christian faith refuse to seek out proper psychological support from a licensed clinical professional. In this way, I believe the church often actively feeds or simply turns a blind eye to trauma and gives folks a false sense of security.

To Those Reaching Out
To Those Reaching Out
I have been so overwhelmed with Jehovah’s Witnesses from my past reaching out. I’ve pinned this to my social media accounts. I’m really surprised that I have heard from those in my past. It’s sad and really heart wrenching for me. I want it to stop unless it’s sincere. To all my Jehovah’s Witness family and friends who have been trying to contact me recently: It’s been overwhelming to hear from…
