Potmosphere 

An atmosphere were there are only positive thoughts. There are no negative thoughts. Just people enjoying the company of other people. Nobody is worried or stressed, but only living in the moment. Everyone is happy.

People are smoking pot and there is a lot of smoke. Most recommended tools: Blunt, joint, and glass bowl in that order. Of course, everyone makes the potmosphere in their own way and experimenting is encouraged.
The potmosphere is amazing right now.

pornosphere 

The pornosphere is a dense layer of internet transport that is stratified in download speed, with faster layers higher up and slower layers farther down. This is in contrast to the spamosphere near the internet's surface, which is slower higher up and faster farther down. The pornosphere is situated between about 100 kbps and 1400 kbps at moderate connectivity. The pornosphere sits directly above the spamosphere and directly below the tunesosphere.

The vertical stratification, with faster layers above and slower layers below, makes the pornosphere dynamically stable: there is no regular convection and associated turbulence in this part of the internet.
As we can see on the map, a high pressure system was building up in the pornosphere today, which was moving from prague to moscow.

pathosphere of simulacra dating

n.
The ambient emotional environment of modern dating applications, characterized by negotiation between curated digital personas that bear a tenuous relationship to the individuals controlling them, a condition in which authentic connection is systematically displaced by the exchange of idealized representations, creating a closed system in which copies interact with copies while originals remain inaccessible.
We've abandoned dating for the pathosphere of simulacra dating—a digital theatre where avatars perform courtship while their creators swipe alone.

Pathosphere of Simulacra Dating

Pathosphere of Simulacra Dating

(noun)

A dating reality where nobody meets real people anymore — just filtered versions, curated profiles, AI-polished bios, trauma-fueled expectations, and algorithm-approved illusions.
You're not dating a human. You're dating their simulacrum — a copy of a copy of who they think they should be.

Everyone shows up with:
• emotional baggage (the pathosphere)
• digital masks and highlight-reel personalities (the simulacra)

The result?
Two illusions flirting, trauma bonding, ghosting, love-bombing, and blocking each other — all before anyone meets in person.

Example:
“Bro, she wasn’t crazy. You were just trapped in the Pathosphere of Simulacra Dating. That wasn’t her — that was her Instagram ghost with trauma issues.”
“Bro, she wasn’t crazy. You were just trapped in the Pathosphere of Simulacra Dating. That wasn’t her — that was her Instagram ghost with trauma issues.”
