I think I agree with @kkukshtel.bsky.social 's comment on the page... like an AI chatbot companion isn't super different from a messaging-app-themed visual novel dating sim thing?

we shouldn't pretend time is a unified construct. like the famous last line of the great gatsby, let us all "bareback ceaselessly into the past"

if anything, we don't have enough arbitrary clock changes!! I think all gay people should go 6 hours into the future

sorry I like daylight savings, it's a nice reminder that time is arbitrary and we can just change the numbers when we feel like it

In May '25, a beloved Australian games website was sold off. It went dark then, a month later, rose from the dead but stuffed full of gambling links and AI authors.

It wasn't the first time, or the last time, this exact thing had happened. And it's still happening.

My months-long investigation πŸ‘‡

we switched mostly for cheaper domain / email, and it's been mostly fine, just expect the feature sets to feel like 10 years ago. e.g. drive app phone photo sync is weird, mac drive app can't sync shared folders yet... lots of multi-platform edge cases

watched Tea & Sympathy (1956)... tried it for the queer themes, but stayed for the drama, and the age gap stuff still feels transgressive today

If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.
