I love collecting Japanese anime merch. I'm also a tech creator and an educator who loves using technology to make my life easier.

Even with the ability to take excellent photos with our phones and instantly share them across the world, there’s something magical about the old-school instant camera. With just a click of a button, you can capture a moment in a photo that you can see and touch almost immediately. Images captured by an instant camera aren’t as pristine or perfect as those produced by modern digital cameras, but their soft images and imperfections are often a big part of the allure. Yet not all instant cameras

Public declarations of emotion are one thing — but going on national television to declare that you're in love with your AI girlfriend is another entirely.
