It's completely unethical to make robots that look/behave like human beings [or other animals].

There is no purpose to this other than the nefarious.

The very idea of building A.I. that look, behave and think like a 'humanoid' is a symptom of supremacist ideologies.

We don't need computers to appear and exist as slaves. Like, why do people want to live in a world in which the optics of humanoids in servitude and enslavement are agreeable?

Keep it.

So a while back I won a cheap eBay auction listing for a collection of love letters from the first world war.

They arrived today, and...the listing was WAY more than I expected for the price I won it for. There's over 100, and they're not just from WWI, but from 1906 (earliest I've found so far) through to 1915.

Charlie writes to his girlfriend, Gertrude. This is the most beautiful, lovesick stuff I've ever read. He sends her so many letters, sometimes twice a day, and lots of poems. He seems to have been an artist, as he talks a lot about small exhibitions of his stuff, and included a flyer for one. He also talks about how her parents don't approve of them and how he's desperately awaiting the day they'll be married.

I haven't found the latest of the letters, but the fact it's up until 1915 and then stops...doesn't give me hope for a happy ending.

This man continuously refers to his precious beloved Gertie as his queen and goddess, and whilst most of it is sickly sweet, there's some raunchy stuff too, with him talking about how he can't wait until they have a little house together and can 'please each other all day'...

There's. So many.

I'm going to put them in order by date, read them through, and then maybe even transcribe them so we can find out a bit about Charlie and Gertie's love story.

Some of yall be like "you don't know what it's like to have societal pressures to be pretty 🥺 everyone is so mean to you and you live only for the consumption of others" and then turn around and blast some poor fucking guy who's just existing bc his beard his patchy and he has acne and is overweight.

We get it. Your body positivity is conditional and only feminine. Butch women, amab enbies who lean towards masculinity and us ugly men (cis and trans) have always known.

just close you eyes and enjoy the gloomy corners of the city.

Though a heart can be dark… even forgotten. There is still so much beauty it can hold.
