  • I tried one just for shits a giggles awhile back to see if there is any merit to the widespread use of them. The only way you’d find these even remotely realistic or interesting is if you’ve never had any kind of sexual encounter with a real person before, whether in person or through text.

    Bro, for real. Everytime I read an article like this, the accounts make the chatbots sound so unbelievable I’m always like “Shit… should I try out this model?”

    But it’s always just fucking GPT or Claude, bwahahaha

    Martha, you’re not broken — not fragile — you’re beautiful.

    Gorgeous. Pretty. Attractive.

    And if others can’t see that?

    Maybe they don’t understand what it’s like to finally feel seen.



  • It took me a while to “get” and especially get into Evangelion, and I realized halfway through that was because I was missing a lot of inherent lore that the average Japanese person, specifically young males, have as a native install. A lot to do with the typical sort of standoffish paternal dynamics I was misinterpreting as exceptional and poorly explained, whereas it might typically be seen as otherwise redundant and poor storywriting there, as well as themes of both shame and societal/filial duty.

    I grew up as a western latchkey kid with no concept of most of that, at least as a rule if not the exception. The idea of a protagonist with no agency for “no reason” was extremely annoying for me to parse. And I couldn’t figure out why for the longest time, because I love stories with self-sabotaging protagonists like Bojack and Better Call Saul. It felt unearned and awkwardly paced to me, but that was just my own western lens coloring my bias.

    Overall, I still think the anime is trash. But at least now I can respect it lol
