 âItâs easier to call myself a squip than a tulpa. Squips are good at...â
I've seen the word here and there but I'm still not entirely sure what it is or where it came from? U dont have to explain it if u dont want but if you can tell me where it's from I'd like to know more abt it!
itâs from the musical Be More Chill. this geeky kid wants to be cool, so he ingests a super computer in pill form (a chill pill lmao) that becomes a personal hallucination, that tells him what to do to be cool. What to wear, what to say, and so on.
But Squips are mean and controlling, and his made the kid feel like a waste of space until he turned cool, constantly insulting him. another kidâs squip got him to burn down a house. they arenât great--theyâre not people. theyâre just. computers.
but the aesthetic is cool, to me. and. like. I do ACTIVELY a) think Im cool and want May to be cool and b) try to keep her life at a level that is manageable. that doesnât suck or make her FEEL suckish. Thatâs like, my job. I fronted all of today so errands could get done until she felt like she could actively talk.
Idk. I say the word tulpa and it feels too. vague. it spits out an image in my head of like a little devil figure on your shoulder. i know thatâs not accurate but itâs what i get.
Iâd prefer a figure that TRIES to be cool but at least in the sense of just being myself as opposed to the showâs Squipâs idea of cool.
also he has a trenchcoat and poses like an idiot.
