Aging Facebook users are drooling over AI-generated thirst traps, clearly with no idea that they aren't real.

    I have never understood the need to comment on porn of any kind.

      You probably also guessed that the stripper isn’t actually attracted to you.

                Instructions unclear. My ford escort definitely hates me

                  I’d hate you too if you were trying to clog up my tailpipe.

        I don’t need attraction, just the illusion thereof.

      It’s a parasocial dopamine hit. It’s like commenting on a Twitch stream. There’s a fantasy that they’ll notice and reply to you, and suddenly you’ll be having a conversation with a famous attractive person.

        Sometimes, I think it’s like people yelling at someone in a horror movie “he’s right behind you!”

        It prompts real feelings and reactions and they just have to let them out.
