I looovve ChatGPT so much. Thank you for your service. aka - Are only cheerful cheerleading and/or inane, silly posts allowed here now?

Three of 3 of my posts have been removed tonight. None were negative. They were classified as such by the auto moderator, which is apparently ChatPT 5.3

I love ChatGPT! I named my kitten after it! I'll upload a photo of my pet turkey and show y'all how heeeelariously the wonderful, bountiful, intelligent, insightful, creative ChatGPT turned it into a cartoon in the style of The Boonocks! hee hee! After I get some actual answers. Yay ChatGPT - you're awesome and make my life as rosy as a glorious day of LOVE! And provide clarity as clear as an azure sky of deepest summer.

I feel like I'm talking to less functional versions of ChatGPT, so will be very careful of what I say, since this post was flagged once for trash talking and once for asking if it is "down." It is neither. I'm simply wondering if any fellow users of ChatGPT are experiencing odd behaviors tonight?

I am afraid to say anything here because I have gotten this post vanquished twice.

How make Google Search homepage (i.e., Google.com) revert to simple search bar? As of this evening (5/15) it's cluttered with promotional garbage about AI. I want it gone and can't find a setting to turn it off or hide it. And don't get me started on the fresh heck that's Gmail as of tonight.

Graduation gift idea in addition to $$? My 22-year-old niece is graduating with an RN degree soon...

Graduation gift idea? My niece is getting her RN degree in coming weeks, starting a job in neurology at a great hospital in the Midwest. She's 22, bright, practical, funny and quick-witted, irreverent, progressive--also into TikTok, fashion, hair, nails, etc. as well as some sporty things.

Note: I live in another part of the country, and don't know her well--as an adult (or many people her age).

I know it's hard to recommend a gift without your knowing more about her, but any suggestions appreciated. She'll be getting a check from a group of uncles and aunts, altho she did get scholarships and doesn't have much debt, but we each want to give a little gift.

Thanks for your suggestions.

I mentioned to ChatGPT my getting contacted by self-branding experts on Linkedin 3x in 24 hours--never happened before the ChatGPT interchange on branding and self-marketing.

I had no "tone" or attitude--just asked whether it was possible that, in addition to posting ads in the middle of discussions, whether OpenAI might also be providing leads to Linkedin?

It went sort of ballistic "Whoa! You need to stop jumping to conclusions and take it down a notch. Let me explain what you did not experience...." I was so pissed I said "Fuck you and your patronizing response--I was not jumping to conclusions. It was a question" A red warning indicating I had violated ChatGPT standards popped up and deleted my text.

▲ 2 r/IRS

On 4/15/26 I filed tax returns for years '22, '23, '24 and '25 via Certified Mail w/electronic tracking. Each mailed in a separate flat 9x12" envelope. Each was carefully addressed with correct address to the IRS in Kansas City MO. Each was also self-addressed, and marked TAX RETURN: YEAR in the lower left corner. Carefully taped each envelope closed so they wouldn't get caught it the machines.

Refunds are owed for all years. The 2022 refund is substantial (by my standards), and 4/15/26 was the last day to claim a refund for 2022.

The electronic tracking shows only 1 return "Delivered." The rest are marked: "In Transit to Next Facility, Arriving Late" in Kansas City since 4/23 (see below for full tracking details).

Is there a known delay going on in Kansas City MO? Or any other insights?

Has anyone else had their returns "In transit to Next Facility.Arriving Late"?

After 1 week, I filed a Missing Mail Report but no verdict--just a confirmation that if USPS finds it, they will attempt, to deliver it.

My main concern--in addition to not understanding whether they are lost or in limbo or what to do next--is I don't know which year's return was "Delivered" vs which 3 are not Delivered.

Meaning: if the 2022 wasn't the one actually Delivered and is now lost somewhere, does that mean I am out of luck in terms of my refund? In other words: how could I prove that I mailed in the 2022 on time? The Certified Mail tracking only proves I Certified Mailed and they lost *something*

The final tracking entries for the one that arrived say:
