Has the Harper’s Weekly guy never met an addict in his life??
communication itself. Is there a timeline, a regulatory environment, in which the internet does not turn into a highly efficient manufacturer of niche suicide cults? I find it hard to imagine. In the case of the gooners, one can hope-and in more cheerful moments, I do think it's possible-that sustained overexposure to porn will dampen the medium's effectiveness as a numbing agent. That at a certain point, the gooner will open his eyes, find himself in a room filled with lube but void of love, and decide that the boredom of staying in that room outweighs the fear of whatever lies beyond it.

Sex work is work and that’s bad
You know, it's a little fucked up, I'm going to admit. It's almost like a drug, and we're almost, like, pushing that drug on addicts. And honestly, I question the ethics of it sometimes. (Laughs.] We're pushing people who are forgoing personal relationships because they're so lost in their gooning addictions. And encouraging that only drives them deeper. So, do I ever have questions of morality about that in my own mind? Yeah, I do. But has it stopped me? [Laughs.] No. I enjoy my job. I like what I do.

"NoodleDude!" I said. "I know that guy!" The excitement I heard in my own voice chilled me to the bone. WristbandGuy paused his efforts and turned in my direction. "He's an artist," he said, with reverence.

It’s just Content all the way down
It's overstimulation at it's best. It means i don't have to scroll as much and get more porn in my brain Think of how TikTok is so engaging because it's an endless stream of variety and stimulation and "brain rot" so to speak. People can't stop watching TikToks. The PMVs I tend to enjoy are like porn and TikTok doing a fusion dance. The fast pictures, (the movements of the girls make you crazy to goon even more!

Again, no shit that this has taken on a religious dimension, just take a look at both our standard and TIB religions
You can think of the pornosexual as a species of voluntary celibate, or "volcel." Like a volcel, the pornosexual chooses not to have sex. Unlike a volcel, the pornosexual does so because their sexual needs are entirely met by pornography, which not a few of them conceive as a kind of "entity" or "goddess" requiring absolute and daily-enacted fealty.

No shit these folks feel a lack of community (only derogatory towards the Harper’s Weekly guy)
This is not to erase the many pure bisexuals in the community, nor the unambiguous straights, nor the self-described femboys, nor the trans women of every sexual orientation. Squint very hard-to the point of risking permanent eye damage-and you can almost see in Goonworld the realization of the Nineties dream of the internet as an incorporeal, judgment-free, gender-fluid sexual playground. But I suspect what these gooners might really be after is-as one Questionnaire respondent put it-"the sense of community" that these spaces offer, this being "something (the] modern world has become increasingly deprived of."

You’re part of the problem kid
is meant by "goonfuel.") Sometimes they send short clips, sometimes they send GIFs, but more often than not they send what are known as "gooncaps" -essentially, pornographic memes. (A lively economy surrounds the production of gooncaps: one Bulgarian teen I spoke with-who took pains to distinguish himself from a real gooner-told me that he and his friends earn a modest living churning out customized gooncaps part-time. He agreed to talk to me because, in his words, "I would like to shed some light on how the moral systems are failing some of the younger people.")

lol
My eyes were still adjusting to this assault when I came across a poster going by the username Gooncultist. He was the kind of chronic social-media user who works full-time in tech and was seemingly raised by niche online-forum moderators, but who nonetheless exhibits a curious fluency in continental philosophy. (One representative tweet began: "yknow corruption/ pornification kink fit really well into post-9/11 baudrillard.") Finding him among this welter of lunatics was a tremendous relief: here, at least, was someone who seemed to acknowledge that what was going on here was strange, that a normal person might find it repellent.

Bringing this back for no reason in particular
Lt. Dr. Julian Bashir, Lt. Jadzia Dax, and Capt. Benjamin Sisko in a car. Dax is driving, unless you live on the moist meme monarchy island where they drive on the wrong side of the road, in which case Sisko is about to get a case of road rage because of the terrible London drivers.
