sophiadew · x · 2026-09-28
X user sophiadew shared that when she told a European friend she was a "techno optimist," he replied that he prefers house music — mistaking the philosophy for the music genre. The pun took off in AI circles, with beffjezos joking that the community needs to throw an actual "techno-optimist techno rave."
