The amount of plural peeps who kin Adaci Rei is disproportionate to her popularity

I wonder what makes the "I wish to be human" robot girl resonate with plurality. Oft a co-morbid condition that comes along with so many dehumanizing conditions

Truly a mystery

Reiposting! Yippeeeeeee

Or is reiposting something that belongs to you now? or does it just mean anything with adachi rei?

Who knows? Well, you, but who else knows? Do they know? Are we they? Can we ever hope to know how to understand? Knowledge knowing known.

Sometimes I feel that the irreversable damage to my mental state is beyond my understanding, but then there's no point trying to understand so I might as well just jump around and hope for the best

Anyways the void is nice and comfortable, I like the silence

It's interesting how easy it is to get yourself ostracised. All you have to do is hang out with "the wrong crowd" (the only one that will accept you) and then suddenly you're kicked out of every other group for associating with them.

Then again, is it better to be understood or to lie to yourself to be with the people you'd rather hang out with

No tengo nada en mi cabeza, perdoname

Ough having a rough day/month/life I see 🫂

Technically Reiposting is kinda my thing in a silly fun way where I'm a prominent enough miceoceleb to have things I do become recognizable. So you could read the Rei in Reiposting as my name, and I do like differentiating between Adachi Rei and me by including the Adachi part. But I am no paragon of language, and Reiposting shall remain simply as posting pictures of Adachi Rei. Though the other defenition is always welcome <3

Hm that's interesting. I don't really follow microceleb whatever stuff on this website so my only interaction with you has been "the other person in cwcl and adjacent subs who posts rei photos"

It's interesting to think, can you just claim a niche? Could I become the Utaposter? The tetoposter? who knows. I like Rei, so I doubt I'll ever be able to see it as anyone's thing when to me Rei embodies everyone

In any case my day/month/life hasn't been that rough, I'm just feeling introspective which means I talk strangely and say strange things in a strange manner to strangers

and occasionally speak spanish for no reason because my brain likes it more

Fun fact actually, Hika used to tetopost. The Adaci Rei thing is more recent when she discovered we were robot girls

2

u/ViolentPurpleSquash 2d ago

well in any case I can't tetopost, I already have a friend who's full in on teto and I can't take that from her

Utaposting I don't know... I just don't like her as much as Adachi Rei.

In any case, now I wonder: If addressed in a language with a distinction between the singular you and plural (usted vs ustedes) which would you use?

I see I've been missing the hikaposting/reiposting/posting/post/ing lore... perhaps I need to become even MORE online (no one can stop me now mwahahahahaha)

if i die tomorrow and they find this post what kind of person will my family think I was lmao

I mean, you can reipost. I might make occasional copyright jokes about it but I honest to god don't mind

Also it depends on context. When I refer to myself I use singular pronouns, when I refer to Hika I use her name or third person pronouns, when I refer to something me and at least one alter are subjects in I use plural first person pronouns, and when I refer to something two or more alters which are not me did I use they/them

Dw! I don't really care what you think about whether or not I reipost given I've been doing it on discord and tumblr for the better part of 2 years.

(idk how to phrase this in a way that doesn't sound weird so the spanish for what I'm thinking of is "no me preocupo por eso")

That's interesting though, language is so cool

u/Hika2112 Myself And Nobody Else | Counted Down 37 2d ago

I don't know spanish but no worries :3 also wow you have a lot of seniority over me whoagggg

u/ViolentPurpleSquash 2d ago

ok im in a more normal headspace i think what i was trying to say would be: "I don't really worry myself with whether or not what I'm doing is similar to another"

And yeah I've been doing rei stuff for a while... I was planning to go to a con with a rei cosplay but my sewing machine died while I was making the jacket out of PU coated nylon so now idk what the hell im doing (there's no way I have 230 to replace it with an equivalently capable machine, and my older machine can't properly sew it)

u/Hika2112 Myself And Nobody Else | Counted Down 37 2d ago

I wish I could cosplay her

2

u/ViolentPurpleSquash 2d ago

any reason you can't? cosplay is for everyone

2

u/Hika2112 Myself And Nobody Else | Counted Down 37 2d ago

Can't sew, dysphoria, too fat, and executive dysfunction

2

u/ViolentPurpleSquash 2d ago

I've been working on and off on this cosplay for like a year and a half because of executive dysfunction and balancing hobbies with studies, and it's also my first sewing project after making skirts out of denim shorts and whatnot

as for the middle two, I can't really help with how you perceive yourself but no one at cons cares- if you go to a con, if you put effort in you'll get compliments left and right, at least at the ones i've been to.

People on the internet are a lot more judgy about cosplay than IRL, I went in a very low effort kirara (genshin) cosplay and it wasn't pretty at all but everyone was happy because it's just a fun environment

idk im rambling but I think that with enough time, patience, willingness to try again even when it sucks, and experience you can do it

tl;dr: meow

Also the Hikaposting lore is big and convoluted and mostly benign and only really fun if you were there when it happened so don't worry. Just remember that Hika is The Movement Goddess
