Prepare to uncouple -- uncouple.

Oz ,'Same Time, Same Place'


Natter 45: Smooth as Billy Dee Williams.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Ugh. It's noon, I'm bored, and I already finished the internet.

So bon bon = Al Gore? Huh.

What is even happening?

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

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

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....

Hmm, I read this as wondering if robot sex toys should be allowed look like kids or animals or famous people. But my mind is a scary place sometimes too.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

If there's one thing this society is fantastically successful at limiting, it's fetishistic expression.

I think you're right. It was a link about robot on robot, and when people asked what the point was, I said it was probably to train robots to have sex with humans.

Then I missed Oz, who would totally get it.

Lots more people have sex with robots than you think.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I was hearkening back to the earlier discussion.
