I shoulda swung by sooner.

It is hard, for sure. For me, hard-est. Especially virtually—no facial expressions or body language or..

Dude walks into a bar and I'm all how many times you gonna do that?!

See what I mean?

Sort:  

I think you're not being honest with yourself. You have managed to use Markup to manipulate your text in a way that I believe mimics facial expressions and body language very well.

You have the some of the most performative text on all of Hive, right in league with folks like @crimsonclad.

I hope that wasn't supposed to be funny cuz I didn't laugh at all. And that 100% was all ai.

I had minor hopes for a chuckle from the 'performative text' line. Can't win 'em all, but there's no limits to losing.

I don't care how minor dude, tell me more of this hope you speak of.

It's a bit like a politician...

Might make you feel good for a moment, but doesn't actually do anything.

I never felt anything for a politician for any amount of time. Does that make me hopeless? They get excited about someone they've never met. No matter how hard I try, I can't care. Can't even pretend to. And I'm the best pretender I know!

Not feeling anything for politicians doesn't make you hopeless, they only might make you feel good, and even then only for a moment. I've found that Hope can be a lot like that. So can hope.
