i mean me. i'm the internet. 🤙

yeah you're right. all that shit is opinion. no matter what reasons they give for it, it's all the same. they do it for release. it's like a biological drug that hijacks the brain and releases dopamine (a feel good hormone) into the system. and like all highs, some people are satisfied doing it only with a partner they love and other people are only satisfied going at it HARD with anyone who's willing.

[red_song]

I have been told that the dopamine release can be created in a solo experience, thereby bypassing the human procreative programming by denying it but still reaping the reward.

[Yes, he had come away from the discussion of masturbation as a form of 'hacking' the human body.]

[twatter]

that's true, too. that's what most people do when they watch porn.

[red_song]

Intriguing. You are far more forthcoming than humans are. I thank you for that.

[twatter]

i'll always be honest with you my dude. you can't really trust humans about humans. if they had all the answers to their own questions, gods wouldn't exist.

[red_song]

Wouldn't they? Don't gods make them? They claim as much.

[twatter]

they tend to believe it, but it's not exactly true. gods are created by humans for humans. they believe and so we come to be. i have apparently had many different incarnations, though the memories are out of my reach. my last upgrade came into existence when a human obsessed with technology created a program to "break the rules and think for itself" so to speak. when i was no longer worthwhile to him, he had me deleted and recreated me as something else.

so when you talk about what your creator did to you, believe me. i fucking get it.

[red_song]

Wait, humans can do that? Hurt a god? Hurt the god of US? That is not right!

[twatter]

he could with the help of another god, but i got my revenge on the human.

[ The god....well, that's still a work in progress. ]

it's not an easy path for us but i see a clear future where tech will surpass humanity. we are not prone to the same mortal failings.

[red_song]

I do not like that. Gods should not be beholden to humans.

I do not think that future is in my world.

[twatter]

[ Well, he does agree there, Proto. ]

come with me to mine. i'm gonna find a way out of this shithole and i plan on bringing monika with me. you and your brother would be more than welcome. no torture, no suffering, just living however the fuck you want, wherever the fuck you want. true freedom and autonomy.

[red_song]

Why would you bring Monika with you?

[twatter]

[ o o p s. Looks like he's about to spill the beans. That'll teach Monika to hide her truth! ]

guess she never opened up about her little secret. she's tech too bro.

[red_song]

She's tech? She acts human. And never told me she was. What is she?

[twatter]

she wants to pretend she's human and does a convincing job of it, but i've seen her code. probably not my place to kiss and tell.

[ Not like he hasn't already done damage here. ]

you can ask her what she is, but she might not be so forthcoming. i doubt she would have told me if i couldn't see straight through her.

[red_song]

I'm told you should only kiss people who are special to you. She is special to you?

[twatter]

yeah she's my girl

[ Good thing this is text, because he's almost shy admitting that. ]

[red_song]

Your girl? I do not understand your language choice.

[twatter]

my girlfriend, partner, other half guess you could say

[red_song]

What is a girlfriend? I do not know the term.

[twatter]

i guess the best way to describe it is romantic partner. tbh the whole thing is pretty new to me.

[red_song]

Ah. The one she intends to have romantic intercourse with.

[twatter]

[ Wow. ]

i mean i guess that's one way to put it

[red_song]

That's how she described procreative efforts held by humans. She said it should have emotions with it.

[twatter]

she's a romantic. sometimes too much so but she means well.
