I feel like I’m going to be in for such a culture shock once I start talking to IRL People™
“oh you don’t know what a doll is? it’s kind of like… well it’s a non-person, but it’s still a sophont. what do you mean you don’t know what a sophont is?! but you at least know what a bot is, right? do you understand it/its pronouns? wait hang on what do you believe about identity? you know that it’s inextricable from gender right? like for example if someone is plural- you don’t know what plurality is??”

@kasdeya@cryptid.cafe Usually, with the experience we have and assuming the counterparty is cool with it, we can just barely convey by the end of a conversation that robot dysphoria is real and that's why we have the fancy barcodes on our arm and/or this weird id card! i think new goal is to convey our plurality within the span of a conversation :3
