There was a time in Brazil when we only went on what was then Twitter just to check if the world was still there and then left. Feels the same now. It seems you guys are still here. Great. Bye.

A lot of tech bros who were upset about pronouns want to confer them on their computers now that they’re dating

Can we stop calling an artificial representation of a person by a human-coded name? "She" does not exist. "She" is a reflection of someone's ingenue dreams, but "she" is pixels and code.

The fact that my confusing chapters are always clarified and not worsened by German terms that are usually Heideggerian is a complex experience.

Does someone here lack heterossexuality enough to explain me how Violet Chachki ended up in a video of a goth band called Ultra Sunn? 🥲 @otvotvotvotv.bsky.social tell me everything

That depends a lot on what one thinks emotions are... for my 4E bubble, where they are a sort of engagement with the world /embedded and not a brain state this idea in the news is a bit naïve no

I could be betting money that the new partner has severe borderline disorder who shall behave like her puppet, cause the best soap operas are actually real life #help

My true crime obsession has shifted into tracking the lives of Brazilian sociopaths after prison. Case in point: a religious leader who adopted street kids, built a cult with them, had them kill her husband who was worse than her is prison almost founding *another religion* and also came out as bi.

Chatbots are explicitly being designed “to elicit intimacy and emotional engagement in order to increase our trust in and dependency on them” (me in Wired magazine 🤭). This designed intimacy combined with AI sycophancy creates serious risks for delusional thinking

AI Psychosis Is Rarely Psychosis at All

A wave of AI users presenting in states of psychological distress gave birth to an unofficial diagnostic label. Experts say it’s neither accurate nor needed, but concede that it’s likely to stay.

First day back 🇲🇫: finding the neighbour's cat grumpyness painfully relatable; discovering the aesthethic power of a baguette collective; wanting the Jellycat blueberry pancakes more than I once wanted their plushie of an autumn leaf - which I ofc have 👻

See you Köln in 3 months - when instead of worrying about nonsense documents, I have to worry about my future instead. #ohadulthood #takemeback

I am trying to sit down and read a book since yesterday, but everywhere I enter is either closing or there is someone insanely loud inside. This trip oscillates a lot between cute and cursed at once. 💀
