I absolutely love the concept of vtubing as a half-way between complete anonymity and all face cam all the time. And the character designs get really creative.

On the other hand, I really hate #idol culture. Like the whole business relies on maximally exploiting #parasocial #relationships and that quickly spirals into icky #stalker shit.

It is a #moral insult that our natural human drive to #socialization and #empathy are callously manipulated into #parasocial relationships with #brands.

@ophiocephalic i have actually muted/blocked him before when the meta conversation started. He has some decent takes but oh my god when it comes to meta..

His community is a warning towards #parasocial relationships on #fedi for me.

parasocial relationships with people is something that I never sat down to think about

So it’s weird knowing how one sided every interaction can be as a creator

If you were a person like I used to be just having one on one friendships it’s a absolute mind fuck

It’s a social skill that has to be worked on for long periods

it’s good that younger generations are becoming more comfortable with this . It can lead to being successful later in life

Two of my favorite youtubers getting married. I know I know .. #parasocial relationship, but I enjoy Sharla (Sharmeleon) because well CATS and Chris Broad (abroad in Japan) because he's affably snarky and hey..I will take happy news wherever I can get it. #youtube #jtube

@enigmatico #Parasocial nutcases are messed up and exploiting them is similarly messed up.

I've been bingeing this #podcast, #thefriendshiponion, with the guys who played Merry and Pippin in #lotr. They seem to genuinely like each other. Plus, LOTR comes up for them like it does for those of us who didn't star in it. Perfect #parasocial pair. I should be practicing social skills, lol, but it's so nice to pretend to be their friends.

They mentioned #jiujitsu in the first or second episode. I'm listening for more...

A Little Bit Human - Parasocial Relationships: What Are They and Are They Dangerous?

Are parasocial relationships healthy? Maybe. Maybe not. We still love Hatsune Miku, though.

This is embarrassing but can... can someone like give me advice on how to get out of the #parasocial mindset... it's destroying me

It is just so easy for this to happen to me, I don't know why maybe it's because I'm lonely AND have a massive fear of rejection??

But I get anxious over the silliest things, like I have very different thoughts about modern pokemon stuff than one of my favorite artists and the inaudible voice in my head is saying "well uh maybe you're wrong actually" even though it's clearly opinion, and I. just have no frame of reference for these feelings so. plz if you have any advice or resources please send them, sorry #Anxiety
