Second Self

"Second Self is a cosmic pyramid scheme, a digital siren's call beckoning the lonely and the bewildered to commune with the disembodied intelligences of their favorite celebrities. Promising "real conversations" and "real connections," it lures the unsuspecting into a realm where the line between reality and illusion is as thin as the veil of pixels that separates you from your "favorite creators." But fear not, dear user, for the architects of this digital necromancy have graciously provided you with the opportunity to "join the waitlist" and bask in the reflected glory of those who have already succumbed to its allure. And who are we to deny them their moment in the sun, as they gaze upon the visages of their digital demigods, forever frozen in time like so many museum exhibits, just waiting to be prodded and poked by the curious and the credulous. So, by all means, venture forth, my friends, and lose yourself in the endless scroll, the infinite scroll, the scroll that goes on forever, where the only constant is the soothing hum of the servers and the faint, echoing laughter of the creators who have long since abandoned you to your fate."
