Huh, interesting. I’m autistic and I tend to personify objects, but if I’m with people I might turn it into a joke, because I mean come on, the idea that eg. a hammer is now happy because something happened to it is pretty funny.
I can’t be mean to NPCs in games. I say “sorry” to my robot vacuum if I bump it with a door or something, and I encourage it when it’s struggling with an obstacle. I think my electric kettle is happy when I use it to make tea. All in all it’s pretty funny that I know objects (probably!) don’t have emotions, but of course they have emotions.
You wouldn’t disappoint a paper.
And you wouldn’t download a car.
What if the car wants to be downloaded?
Statements like this just serve to normalize non-victim blaming.
Hey, not all cars that get downloaded are victims, after all. Some cars do want to get downloaded, and that’s totally fine.
I downloaded a car and now there’s a car in my flat and I don’t know how to get it out. My landlord is gonna be pissed
P2P transfer to porch
Instructions unclear, I now have two cars
Infinite car duplication glitch found!

You didn’t even link the paper!

I’m going to make that paper so fucking sad that it’ll need therapy for life.
