reminds me of otherkin and soulbonding communities. i used to have a webpage of links to some pretty dark anecdotal stories of the seedier side of that world. i wonder if i can track it down on my old webhost.
I met a Chris Chan cosplayer at a cosplay convention. Was crazy to laugh with the guy about how Chris Chan currently has a GF (flutter) and children on the way with her and is living better than a significant amount of his trolls.
