This is ideal bedside manner.

It’s like nicknames. First it’s Joseph, then Joe, then Napoleon Jonaparte.

Damn. Maybe it’s unrealistic to have all your hair replaced with snakes.

Yeah, tbh I hope she’s deaf, for her sake.

I’m aware. I’m a vegan because I’m not down for animal rape. The bestiality laws are written with exceptions for people who are acting, not out of their own sexual interest, but out of financial interest.

I wanted to have a slightly different discussion, because this one’s depressing as shit though.

I think medusas deaf. The cilia in your ear would be less effective if replaced by tiny snakes.

I don’t think I have the moderating skills, lol.

Clever. I wish I’d gotten a serious discussion out of this, but that’s the community.

I’m sorry, but given that the deer was dead, wasn’t this guy basically fucking a piece of venison?

Not that that makes it morally okay and I’m sure there are some indecent exposure type charges that apply, but the deer doesn’t care anymore, which is the point of bestiality laws

That’s misinformation sponsored by heimlich himself

That’s legitimately how I’d respond to someone asking if I’m a hugger.

I had a man point at me and angrily go “that’s her!” to his companion while passing me.

I work at a bakery and give this motherfucker a free roll and a decaf every day because he’s already on the street when I get there at 4 and he needs to eat. We didn’t have decaf that morning, so I just gave him a roll, because I don’t know why he drinks decaf and I’m not trying to give him a heart attack. He thought it was aggressive of me.

Every generation worries about the new one, but they haven’t actually had cause in the past.

In the US at least, you might not convince people. I think every parent thinking about it imagines their child calling them during a school shooting to say I love you one last time.

That’s more worthy of respect than someone who doesn’t admit that capitalism affects our education system

What if I have lead pipes?

That or I’m cherry picking :P

The most important thing about the fae for me is first: they’re likely to try and blend in poorly as a person; but also untrustworthy in a demon/fine print way; entrancing; subject to their own (unknown) rules; dangerous to give your true name to; and dangerous to accept gifts from. The rest of them aren’t inapplicable to modern ai, but they’re not as easy to explain, I guess.

Do you have different associations with the fae when I list them all out?

That’s an interesting theory, though I think the fae fits better with neurodivergence than other hominids. (Incomprehensible, different, follows strict rules, changelings, unpredictable, etc. I’m autistic and have been called all of the above multiple times)

But again, this is just a shower thought- I’m enjoying finding more overlaps, not actually convinced that we somehow had a computing society that disappeared and left no trace except for fairytales.

Oh yeah, that’s why I put “AI” in scare quotes and mentioned our current AI. This is just about the technology assisted masturbation that uses astonishing resources
