A bit? They’re practically dragging NASA and Harvard-grad psychologists into it. Possibly even an MIT mechanical engineering team or two as well.

This isn't just how your inner voice sounds whenever your in public? You're not always hyperaware of what you're doing and how you look, so you can avoid anyone thinking you're strange?

What, you expect me to believe that you just exist as yourself when others are about, you're not perpetually terrified that they could notice you?

Just be a human w/ a body in a moment of time. If thats cringe the cringe needs confronting!

Being a human with a body is fucking cringe, why do you think I wanna be a robot so badly?

Don't know how to tell you this, but the first part of your sentence answers the second

That's how that language construct works. That's pretty much the point of it.

I know. My whole project here is to get the attention from there to the content

No it's doesn't. They didn't say "why do I wanna be a robot", they said "why do you think I wanna be a robot". The focus is on your beliefs. You said being human shouldn't be cringe, and they're challenging you to explain the facts given your beliefs.

... and the whole point is it shouldn't need explaining. The emphatic "omg being human is so cringe" doesn't come with explanations, it's a mere reflection of the social athmosphere of never beeing enough. It emphatically bends to a zeitgeist that contradicts being human itself (making someone say "having a body is cringe").

That might seem subversive or creative, but it isn't, wich is very out in the open once you shift focus on what such emphasis is emphasizing

I think otherkin are a phenomenon that would continue to exist even absent our current repressive social conditions and the negative implications humanity has gained in the wake of its own atrocities. Although in a more liberated society, otherkin would be much more common as more people come to find themselves on a deeper level.

so arousing being a grown adult drinking from a water fountain. pert little hydration booty sticking out behind u. know just what to do with my eyes. stare longingly into the chrome phallus delivering me sweet nectar. then close them, half from genuine pleasure; half erotic performativity. then, rising, choking on fluid, wiping the remains of my intimate encounter from the corner of my mouth, a smirk of pleasure on my plump, hydrated lips.

I make my hydration booty pop on purpose, I arch my back and moan while drinking

I haven't been able to use a water fountain since becoming aware of just how germ-ridden and gross those things tend to be.

I have been able to use a water fountain ever since I ignored germs and gross things. (Nothing adverse has happened)

Or fountain sodas or ice from dispensers. Same problem of mold buildup if they aren't maintained. At least it's much harder for people to put their mouths on those...(but not impossible).

I know that if I search the web I will find video proof of this being done routinely, so I won't.

I can taste it when a restaurant isn't cleaning their nozzles properly. It's fucking nasty.
