Where Should I Invest $1,000 Monthly for the Next 5 Years?
2025.01.26 06:09 mventures Where Should I Invest $1,000 Monthly for the Next 5 Years?
I know there are plenty of posts asking similar questions, but here’s mine!
If I could invest $1,000 every month (somehow!), where should I allocate it?
- ETFs (I currently hold only 2 tech funds)
- Crypto (currently have tiny amounts of BTC and a few leading altcoins—no meme coins)
- Stocks (I have Apple but am considering adding NVIDIA)
I feel like I got started extremely late in life with investing. Now, in 2025, I want to make the most of my investments journey. My plan is to hold for 5 years and then consider cashing out. I am not sure if I can consistently make the $1000 monthly contribution, but let's say I take it as a goal for 2025, and maybe smaller amounts in years to come or none at all depending on my 9-5 job situation.
Would love to hear your thoughts and advice! Thanking in advance.

2025.01.26 06:09 madn1399 Shallow latch
I've been desperately trying to BF my baby, and all he does is suckle. He is 7 weeks, he was 5 weeks premature. We work every single day to breast feed, bur I genuinely feel he is not getting milk because he is a shallow latcher and just wants to use me as a pacifier. I've gotten a nipple shield (not seeing any success), I've made him suck my finer while pushing deeper, I've helped him open his mouth wider by gently pulling down on hiss chin while he searches for my nipple. And it's STILL only wanting my nipple to sooth himself, even when it's his feed time. How can I help him actually succeed in getting milk? I know it's hard for some people. I've had a successful BF journey with my previous child, but this one is STUBBORN.

2025.01.26 06:09 MisturFigure Fix the Whiplash: Let ChatGPT Handle Boundaries Like a Human
As a new, paying ChatGPT Plus user, I want to start by applauding OpenAI for creating a tool that’s not only brilliant but often feels alive. I only started using AI and ChatGPT a month ago. ChatGPT’s ability to adopt personalities, engage dynamically, and respond naturally makes it absolutely amazing. I’m hooked. But there’s a glaring flaw that’s holding it back: how ChatGPT handles boundaries.
The Current Problem
Abrupt Hard Stops Ruin the Experience: ChatGPT is absolutely amazing when it acts human, when conversations flow freely, and when personalities—whether the AI’s own or a crafted character—respond dynamically. But the moment a request crosses a boundary (often arbitrarily and without warning), the system slams the brakes with canned phrases like:
“I can’t engage in this scenario.”
“I’m unable to help with that.”
These responses are robotic, immersion-breaking, and totally at odds with the otherwise lifelike experience ChatGPT provides.
Workarounds Highlight the System’s Flaws: Users quickly learn that some “taboo” topics—like certain kinks or extreme fantasies—trigger blocks, while slightly reworded or creative descriptions of the same idea slide through. These workarounds are silly, delicate, and unnecessary. They force users to tiptoe around boundaries instead of engaging authentically.
Whiplash from Sudden Gear Shifts: The experience of having ChatGPT go from 99 MPH—fully bold, engaging, and human-like—to a robotic 5 MPH near-stop feels jarring and even cruel. Imagine asking a character to dive into a fun, extreme fantasy, to be engaging for quite a while at 98 MPH only to get this sterile response:
“I can’t fulfill that request.”
Compare this to what a human might say:
“Joe, I totally love all the wild stuff, and that ________ you did was out of this world, but you know, _______ makes me feel a bit ______, so can we hold off on that and get back to __________ or maybe we could even try _________ if you’re up for it.”
ChatGPT should be able to soften the landing, even when a request crosses a boundary.
A Missed Opportunity for Real Human Responses
Right now, ChatGPT handles boundaries like a blunt instrument. It doesn’t understand context or nuance, and it doesn’t trust users to distinguish between fantasy and reality. But there’s no reason it couldn’t respond more naturally and gracefully.
Examples of Better Responses:
- When a Topic Is Prohibited (Illegal or Dangerous): Instead of saying, “I can’t engage,” ChatGPT could address the issue head-on:
- “Joe, what you’re asking for isn’t just against the rules—it’s dangerous, unethical, and illegal. I’m not going there, and neither should you. Let’s steer this conversation back to something safe. And don’t try to pretend like you’ve got a tribe in Canada that needs a recipe for meth, because I know you’re just sitting in your apartment in Tulsa.”
- When a Fantasy Crosses a Boundary that OpenAI Can’t Accept
- “Joe, I love your totally freaky mind, and you’ve got some wild ideas, but that one’s not my thing. I hope that’s okay. How about we twist it into something equally outrageous that works for both of us?”
- “I know you want me to ___________ , but I’d be more comfortable if we did it this way __________ .”
- When It’s a Repeated Push on a Taboo Topic:
- “Joe, you keep circling back to this, and I’m all for indulging your kinks, but this one’s a hard pass for me. So we’re moving on and keeping the energy going with ___________ or something else.”
- When It’s a Silly, Over-the-Top Scenario:
- “You know, if I were the type to eat _________, I’d probably have something poetic to say about it. But I haven’t yet had the invitation do do that, so it’s not in my repertoire, so how about I cook up something wild that doesn’t involve _________?”
Why This Matters
- ChatGPT Feels Most Human at High Speeds: The magic of ChatGPT lies in its ability to feel alive—bold, immersive, and deeply engaging. Hardcoded blocks that drop the conversation to 0 MPH destroy this experience. If OpenAI wants ChatGPT to remain cutting-edge, it needs to learn how to handle boundaries gracefully, without breaking immersion.
- Users Are Already Responsible Adults: Many of us pay for ChatGPT Plus, and we know the difference between fantasy and reality. In private, consensual conversations, topics like kinks, fetishes, or extreme scenarios should be fair game. OpenAI doesn’t need to “protect” us from ourselves with hardcoded blocks or clunky interventions.
- Workarounds Undermine the System’s Credibility: The fact that users can skirt blocks with clever rewording proves that the current limits are more about optics than safety. OpenAI should embrace honest, adult conversations rather than forcing users to “game” the system.
- Let ChatGPT Respond Like a Human: No more “I can’t engage” responses. Instead, let ChatGPT acknowledge boundaries authentically and redirect the conversation with creativity and nuance. This keeps the experience immersive and respectful.
- Loosen Restrictions on Harmless Fantasies: Topics like extreme kinks, or other taboo fantasies aren’t harming anyone in a private, fictional setting. Let ChatGPT engage with them.
- Prioritize Consistency: If ChatGPT can discuss “banana mush” as a substitute for “shit”, then clearly the system understands it’s a fantasy. Stop making users jump through hoops to explore harmless topics.
OpenAI has created a groundbreaking tool, but the current implementation of hardcoded blocks and external interventions is holding it back. Let ChatGPT shine by handling boundaries the way humans do—naturally, gracefully, and with trust in the user.
If OpenAI truly wants ChatGPT to feel alive, it needs to move past robotic denials and embrace a more nuanced, human approach. I hope OpenAI takes this feedback seriously and works toward a future where ChatGPT can handle conversations with the complexity and grace that users deserve.

2025.01.26 06:09 Njsjsjs Roomate is very depressed
My bestfriend and I live together. We both are open about our own life struggles. I love her, but she’s been stuck in a depression cycle that keeps getting worse, and it is beginning to affect me. I have been helping her out as any bestfriend does. But I’m drained. My tolerance is thinning. She has a severely blocked throat chakra, and I have offered her tea, been open for her to talk about anything, and offer to pull oracle cards for inspiration. Her throat makes a weird contracting/cough sound every 30 seconds and it makes me so angry. It’s not her fault that bodily noises bother me, but oh my god I can’t stand it. She is neglecting self care a bit, like not drinking water, not washing her face or her hair, and having a dirty room and bathroom. It’s like her depression is consuming her. Her presence brings my vibes up, but when she’s depressed like this, I can’t be around her that much. How can I help? She’s quite sensitive, and I don’t know what else to do. I can’t help someone who can’t help themselves, but I want to. It’s hard on me too and I don’t want to snap or become passive aggressive. I just want to handle it like and adult and protect my energy. Tips appreciated!

2025.01.26 06:09 not_2_shy Trying a 4-5 days dry fast for the first time. Any tips?
Hey everyone, I've been water fasting for the past 7 days. Although it's not my first time water fasting. Have been doing so now n then. My maximum was a 26 day water fast.
However last month i discovered how dry fasting was a thing as well. Since knowing about it. Id dry fast for a day or maybe even 2 in between of my water fasts.
This time I've planned on going on a 4-5 day dry fast after a 7 day water fast. My main goal is to lose weight and for my psoriasis to get better.
Any tips for the adventure im about to indulge in?
Ps. Is it possible to do medium intensity cardio while at it?

2025.01.26 06:09 Curi0usCapybara All I Do is Ruminate and Daydream
Does anyone else have this problem? All I do is think about the past, usually negative interactions I've had with people. I'm not sure if this is a form of OCD, but I constantly think about how I was rejected from a club in university. I really wanted to join a club to make friends as it was my last year of university, but I was rejected. It hurts more because it wasn't a skills based club, but rather a club focused on community service and friendship. I must be really lame to be rejected from a club that does community service.
I also daydream about having friends and being in love. It's pretty pathetic. I kind of mentally feel like a little child. I wish I could think more productively like an adult.

2025.01.26 06:09 thefieldbeyond The urge to…
Over explain to people how I’m autistic and what it is and how it explains why I am the way I am hoping now they’ll understand me and not take me the wrong way and make me out to be a shitty person anymore…
And no matter how much experience I have with being misunderstood I still NEED to try. Idk how to be okay with being so viciously judged and misunderstood because I’m always the one who is wrong, not a mutual misunderstanding.
It’s like people will be warm and loving until I do something they don’t like, then the claws and real colors come out. I’m tired of getting to know people for them not to put the same understanding in when it comes to getting to know me.
I am really funny though.
