Are people trying to creat cylons?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wow, I never realized how dangerous it was to be a stick figure.

I'm stuck on the middle sentence about limiting the appearance. All three sentences look like they're related at first, but then on reread they seem like they're...hm... almost randomly generated...
OMG, I think that article was written by an AI. Maybe the sentient computers are jealous because the robots can have sex even though they're not as smart. This is the start of a propaganda war. It's nerds versus cheerleaders all over again.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Ugh. It's noon, I'm bored, and I already finished the internet.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
See, it makes much more sense to me that people would make robots to have sex with than that people would design robots to have sex with one another.
I can't believe I just admitted that in public.

What is even happening?

I swear we just had this conversation with the last couple of weeks. Robot sex is the new salad shooter.

So should limits be set on the appearance, for example, of such robotic sex toys?
So, they're saying that "highly-realistic sex robot = bad"?
Maybe realistic is OK as long as it's obviously a robot? Like if they make them bright green?

I think we were just talking about robots having sex with other robots. Or maybe I just forgot about the robot/human sex part of the discussion....
