I am possessed of an estranged family, except for a brother who sends me videos of animals who come to his backyard feeders. "Just in case" he's a govt employee, we'll call him Craig.

I'd sent him a brief email, and he replied. The first half was ... weirdly emotionally in-tune. He said he missed me. I was nonplussed.

... Jerk thought it would be funny to send me the AIgen reply first. I told him I was confused about the 'newfound empathy' and now I'm calling him Craigbot forever. lol/ugh ffs
