@afelia@chaos.social There's a science fiction short story by Kelly Link wherein certain celebrities don't actually go out in public; they just send out realistic, autonomous dolls to interact with people and each other. It's easier when you're introverted or fat or just having a bad hair day to send out a smooth, perfect copy of yourself to interact with smooth, perfect copies of others. It seemed a bit too "out there" the first time I read it. Now, not so much.
