This “incorporated into LW” condition is a tight leash; and it reminds me of why I don’t usually… recommend LW to my friends.
Some matters are too personal to talk about on the Internet. Like marital infidelity, which 1) is something outside of many people’s experiences, 2) definitely seems to require tons of instrumental rationality even on the best of days, 3) has (ethical) implications which real people often don’t take into account despite other real people often expecting them to (but knowing they won’t), and 4) unlike acceptable LW material with which it shares the above characteristics, it hurts. And so it is with some other things that actual adults have to deal with.
Unless you speak about something already in the past. Maybe we should have a Cemetery of Failed Things in our City. (Our current Cemetery of Failed Things holds several startups and personal habits, which is, wow, how lucky we are.)

Oh, I remembered we have this: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/suGfBx5pcjCn6DT5A/how-did-my-baby-die-and-what-is-the-probability-that-my-next#XmC8SwC8h6kKKwMBF . If I remember anything else, I shall add it here.
