A Closer Look at SweetDream's Video Call Experience
If you want to understand why people are calling SweetDream the standout AI girlfriend platform, the most honest thing to do is watch someone use the video call feature. The platform, at sweetdream.ai, offers live video with select characters, and the experience is calmer and more convincing than the hype around AI companionship usually suggests.
What you notice is that the video isn't trying to dazzle you. It's trying to feel ordinary, in the good sense, the way a call with someone you know feels ordinary. That works because of the groundwork. SweetDream's character creation is deep enough that your AI companion has a coherent personality and voice before you ever see her face. The chat remembers context. The voice calls sound human. By the time video enters the picture, the relationship already exists.
There's also the matter of trust. SweetDream keeps conversations and content private, which matters more than usual once you're putting a face to these interactions. Observing the space as a whole, plenty of tools can generate a pretty image. Far fewer can hold a believable, private, face-to-face moment together. That combination is what keeps pushing SweetDream to the front.
I go to youtube. Cute animal videos are AI now. I go to instagram. There are AI influencers. I go to spotify. It's flooded with AI bands and music. I go to ebay. Every product is AI. I open netflix. Every movie has AI. I watch TV. All commercials are AI. I cancel all my suscriptions. The customer support is AI. I buy a book. It is written by AI. I talk to my friends. They tell me that AI is their new therapist. I take the subway. Some dude is talking to his AI girlfriend next to me. I go to the beach. The sunset is real. I take a pic and upload it. The photo is enhanced with AI. You can't opt out.
GREAT DAY FOR BRAZIL, FELLAS!!!
ok i might need to elaborate on why this is such a big deal.
So, Brazil had a dictatorship, military coup, that lasted from 64 to 85. On this time period (and i'll be really short) we had like 5 dictators and oh god, so, SO MUCH torturing, censorship and repression.
People that were killed are still missing. And none of the military heads that did it were ever arrested. Much less judged. Much less sentenced.
There was this air of impunity, that Brazil would not move forward because when push came to shove, no one arrested the big guys, the masterminds, the people that caused all of that.
UNTIL NOW
Bolsonaro is a fucked up right winger, backed by Trump. When this spineless coward lost it's election, he, just like Trump, incited a riot (ours was January's 8, 2023) that tried to silence the opposition and change the election results.
The people on the said riot went through trial and many paid fines or got arrested.
But the military core and Bolsonaro still walked free. We we fought for this not to repeat.
So for the VERY FIRST TIME IN THE STORY OF THIS COUNTRY, we finally, FINALLY, got justice against those who attempted against the democracy. And for that he was found guilty of:
Armed militia.
Attempt of violent dissolution of the democratic state.
Coup d'etat
Qualified damages for violence and serious threat (they had a plan to kill the actual president, Luís Inácio, and the supreme court head, Alexandre.)
Deterioration of historic heritage
And for those crimes, he's sentenced for 27 seven years and 3 months of jail time.
Not only this, the rest of the heads went with him. 26 years for the ex-minister of defense Walter Braga Netto, 24 years for the ex-minister of justice and secretary of defense Anderson Torres, ex-commander of the marine Almir Garnier got 24 years. Augusto Heleno, ex-minister of security affairs got 21, another ex-minister of defense got 19, and lastly, Alexandre Ramagem, who was the director of Brazil's intelligence agency got 16 years.
I can't explain, without telling the whole story of the last 100 years of this country how big this is.
This is a landmark. This change tides. This gave us hope.
Latios and Latias ✨ This was a real struggle because their designs are just so perfect already, I feel like I've uglified them a lil bit lol Mega Latios was particularly hard because...his fleshy airplane wings...
AI disturbance overlays for those who don't have Ibis paint premium. found them on tiktok
how do you use these?
Put these on the top layer above everything, set layer to 'overlay' then adjust opacity. You can put it on whatever opacity you want but usually 30%+ is most effective.
The point is to obstruct the picture so AI can't read your image because AI counts every single pixel in your art

Good breakdown for anyone, especially show onlies, confused about the last episode
I do appreciate the they tried not to overcomplicate it by not throwing in the terms Da'Shain Aiel and Jenn Aiel; but I have seen some people not get that the Tuathan'an/Tinkers are just as much oath breakers as Aiel, just from the other side of the issue
STOP saying Moiraine is Rand's mother. That woman hasn't got a single nurturing, maternal bone in her body, and I like her that way. Moiraine is Rand's absentee legal guardian who was reluctantly forced to take custody due to the will.
I can't stop singing it.
some Wheel of Time art from last year that (i think???) i never posted. Soulmates for ever and ever <3
Moiraine confessing to Lan that in the thousand thousand futures she’s seen that there isn’t a single one where she survives to the last battle which she and Lan have dedicated the last 21 years of their life to, holding back tears thinking that all their work has been for nothing.
And Lan responding with “well you aren’t dying tonight bestie, drink up!”
That’s real love right there
Wheel of Time S03E04: Rand Al’Thor in the glass columns you will walk the footsteps of your ancestors. Each step forward, a step backward through time. Sometimes dozens of years, sometimes hundreds. To lead is to know where you came from.
🧍♂️ARE WE COOKED...
yeah. okay. sit down. pull the shades. light a black candle. i'm gonna explain this in a way that doesn't make everyone go "oh no....uhhh..."
this wasn't just any pope. this was the pope who pissed off american conservatives so much they started calling him the communist pope. the man literally said capitalism kills. he met with trans people. he said atheists could go to heaven. he called climate change real. he didn't ban gays from the church, he hugged them.
and now he's gone. which means the conclave is gonna do what conclaves always do when they get scared: swing hard right. like trad caths in lace veils reciting aquinas and plotting crusades on telegram right. we're talking incense and indulgences and anti-abortion absolutism on megaphone. it's giving bring back the inquisition, but make it fashy.
and contextually............yeah, we're fried. barbecued. cremated. america's having an escher sketch of a fascist relapse. trump is foaming at the mouth with jd 'man-made horrors beyond my comprehension' vance whispering in his ear like a steubenville snake. climate collapse is escalating. billionaires are LARPing as greek gods while the rest live in the second act of a von trier film. and now the most left-leaning pope in modern history just left the building.
this isn't cooked. this is cassandra tearing her hair out while the trojans say lol he's just a horse :)
like. we just lost the last soft voice in a room full of screaming patriarchs. and what's next? pope benedict 2.0? pope jordan peterson?? pope elon i??
brace. get a rosary. get a gun. get a philosophy degree. the next decade's gonna feel like being locked in a cathedral while it floods and the only thing playing is ave maria (bass boosted).
we are so cooked.
unless we all start manifesting. so. let's start manifesting . lock in

People used to comment on web comics.
People used to comment on fanfiction.
People used to comment on fanart.
People used to comment on OCs.
I hate "content" culture.
I hate "consuming content" and scrolling immediately to the next thing.
People used to be excited about the art that other people created.
People used to want to share that excitement with creators.
I hate this future.
Once someone tagged art that I made with "woah" and I think about it at least once a week. Someone else said "oh neat" once. Someone else WROTE A WHOLE DAMN POEM IN THE COMMENTS. Anyways even just one word can change how someone sees their art. You don't even have to think about it too hard. You could put a keyboard smash and I'd probably cry from joy.
I'm also trying hard to interact more, I understand that it's hard to break away from opening your phone and being in Content Consumption Mode.
I honestly hadn't stopped to think about this until I saw this post... I used to think people would get annoyed if they were notified everytime someone posted a comment on their art. I never thought about it being like fanfiction and that they might appreciate comments. Frick, that means I'm part of the problem on here. Thats gotta change.
Every tag, every comment, every reblog with some kind of reaction/opinion or even just one word. All of these things are precious to creators!
I spent countless hours reading and rereading tags full of love people left under my art. All the people i could gift a laugh to or even inspire with something I made mean more to me then you could ever know.
It's what makes me proud of my art!
And to think that you could have enjoyed my art in silence and I would have never known.
A very special shout out to the person who tagged "these mcgriddles make me want to shit so bad" on fanart in 2013 I think about you once a day
