The percentage of people who "identify as" (I hate that phrasing) women is 10 higher than the percentage of people that were assigned female at birth, implying the sample was >10% trans women

The paradox of "men hate 'loose' women but also want to freely consume women's bodies without commitment" that has traditionally sorted women into Madonna/Whore seems to be being resolved as "replace all real sex workers with nonconsensual AI pornography of non-consenting celebrities"

The use of AI to marionette a woman whose tortured existence was spent trying to carve her own life and identity out of the space men forced her into is both damningly macabre and a surprisingly perfect encapsulation of the problems with this ghoulish use of technology.

I don't think I could have ever dreamed we'd end up at the "consensual sex is illegal, the only sex that is legal is rape" stage of patriarchy

The world keeps proving it's crueler than I think

This shit is genuinely vile in a way that makes me feel sick, man. They're removing all actual porn from the internet at the same time as making it easy to generate images and videos of any woman you want naked and being fucked, regardless of whether they consent.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

we’ve gone so far past “sex workers are the canaries in the coal mine” re: internet freedom, to an internet that’s run off and robbed from all the sex workers in order to replace them with planet-destroying simulations of sex workers

Old World of Darkness is the (unintentionally) funniest TTRPG setting because what do you mean Ayatollah Khomeini is a heroic warrior against the NWO, 9/11 brought the Evil Fairies back, and Romani people have actual supernatural powers

Like a conspiracy theorist telling you his theories

I am told that on its deathbed White Wolf received the light of Allah and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada

Doc Vivi Leandra - Real-Life Scientist VTuber 🧬🖥️ @docvivileandra.bsky.social · 8h

Like at this point I'm wondering if White Wolf's writers didn't manage to edgelord-contrarian themselves into converting to Shi'a Islam the level of glazing it gets is utterly bizarre (not because I have anything against Shi'ism, mind, it's just incredibly out of place)

Doc Vivi Leandra - Real-Life Scientist VTuber 🧬🖥️ @docvivileandra.bsky.social · 9h

You'd think it's like this, but it's portraying the Americans as pawns of the literal New World Order and their tyrannical agenda and Islamic Revolution and Iran as heroic warriors against their imperialist aims

Doc Vivi Leandra - Real-Life Scientist VTuber 🧬🖥️ @docvivileandra.bsky.social · 9h

This is *especially* funny when compared to the fact that groups like Al-Qaeda are portrayed to be a front for the Nephandi, the evil mages who want to annihilate reality and consciousness

Salafists: Spawn of Satan
Khomeneinists: Heroic warriors against Western imperialism

Doc Vivi Leandra - Real-Life Scientist VTuber 🧬🖥️ @docvivileandra.bsky.social · 9h

They have a decent explanation for that which is that the important part is the terror and horror and the industrialization of murder in the Holocaust also caused a shitton of Banality, but that doesn't explain why it was 9/11 and not, like, the Cuban Missile Crisis

Doc Vivi Leandra - Real-Life Scientist VTuber 🧬🖥️ @docvivileandra.bsky.social · 9h

Now that I think about it, "weird fetishization of Shi'a Islam" is kind of a common element of White Wolf writing

Like the cool Muslim vampire clan are also Shi'ites

Doc Vivi Leandra - Real-Life Scientist VTuber 🧬🖥️ @docvivileandra.bsky.social · 9h

I know, it's more that it's extremely funny that White Wolf would take this position of inexplicably presenting the Ayatollah as a great hero on the side of the good-guy mages given they are otherwise hilariously americentric
