Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream Won't Judge You If You're Horny

It is a weird time for sex on the internet. We live in both an era of extreme sexual permissiveness and constant restriction. Formerly niche fetish terms like "gooning" have reached mainstream usage. The advent of machine learning has made deepfake pornography more common than ever, to horrifying effect . The release of the Epstein files has revealed how pervasive sexual exploitation is. Yet, ID-restriction laws have been passed in the UK and Australia, and several US states have floated or passed similar laws.

One Bluesky user, baffled that the game lets her type " lesbian sex ," laughs along with the strangely coherent conversation that follows (and several other copycat posts on Bluesky have followed that one). On Twitter, streamer Blake Jennings' Mii befriends "human Shrek" by discussing "clapping your booty cheeks." And multiple posts on both Bluesky and Twitter describe the game as "writing boobs on a calculator," and that feels like an accurate assessment. Making your grandma say "farting" may be tamer than making outright innuendos, but both driven by a similar sort of glee. The player is turning the game to their whims, and the game is letting them.
