With this project I used a topic I do feel strongly about. I find it to be one of the most fucked up things that's been happening in our world. It's mostly about Epstein. I mixed some other conspiracies in with it, like 9/11. I was trying to accomplish making a very cryptic bot, one that would tweet encoded messages and blend conspiracies together. It has somewhat of fractured and schizophrenic mannerisms. While the topics it tweets about are not funny, I think the way it presents them kind of is, which wasn't my original goal. The entity of my bot is the Wind Fish, which is an ambiguous character in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. It is a giant fish with wings that is sleeping in a large egg on top of a mountain. Everyone in the game tells you not to wake it, because reality is just a dream of the wind fish, and when it wakes up we will all cease to exist. When I was playing it I thought the weird existentialism introduced to this old video game marketed to children was funny and yet poignant. Also, I used a different method of creating a bot. It's the method I've used before and am familiar with, and I believe also allows for more freedom in how you want your bot to work.
