Im curious — how do ethical and safety conscious manifest themselves there? Is it more cultural or process driven? Do you have any examples?

This appears to be sensationalized. This is the first time I've heard of Civitai, but I perused their website and I found no porn.

This is how I felt before I found a room I regularly frequent. We meet up once a week for the past 3 weeks, and so far it's 3 consistent participants with 2-3 newcomers each time. I've only met 1 of them in real life. We talk about surfing ;p.

What I've learned is that Clubhouse is only fun if you're participating. Unstructured conversations are hard to follow if you're not actively shaping it.

1. My point was to undermine the negative connotation associated with the word infantile. Since when did having an undeveloped prefrontal cortex become absolutely negative? 2. Creative and playful are highly correlated.

1. Scientific and rational debate are first class citizens in online communication

2. No speech limitations should be placed on online discussions unless it deviates away from rational debate.

3. Newsfeeds are sorted by popularity AND scientific accuracy.

4. All opinions about an issue, article, or topic are categorized and mapped on a spectrum. Meta data for quick analysis: how does my opinion compare to my peers?

Did Parlor tell you to think that ;) ?

Infantile is a compliment. It suggests creativity and pushing the boundaries. Normally old curmudgeons think young things are empty and stupid because they don’t understand.

Anger, like any other emotion, is useful until it's not.

Everyone wants to be that 1 in 10 lottery winner :) Every hero needs to conquer some villain (e.g. credit card debt). It makes the victory that much sweeter.

>My hypothesis is that living things can't be depressed about stuff they are unaware of, since depression is a relative state rather than an absolute state.

It's an interesting idea, but then I think about dispositions. I would argue that animals are born with the awareness of which you speak. I call this awareness: instincts. Does a fishbowl accommodate a fish's natural born instincts?

I would be depressed too if I lived in a fish tank/bowl...
