How did cumgirl8 come to be?

Chase—Friends, oh wait, uh, we came from outer space.

Veronika—We met in outer space.

What inspired your name?

Veronika—A screen name. An OKCupid idea that a friend had where...

Chase—Well, it kinda goes with our story, you know? It’s like we met in space. We had some earth bodies, and we became into our sexual identities when everyone was on the internet, having screen names. It just makes sense to be cumgirl because that’s when we started being aware of cum. That’s how our characters become enlightened.

Lida—And the name is also symbolic of our dual masculine and feminine identities, but the fourth entity is the computer. That’s why there’s 8 of us.

Veronika—And it doesn’t have a gender, either.

Can you talk a little bit about how your Instagram is a meme account?

Veronika—We don’t necessarily want it to be a meme account, but it’s just turned into that.

Lida—We’re just a part of the internet, it’s how we communicate now. It’s the easiest way to understand other people.

Chase—And the best way to explain complex ideas… where language leaves off, memes pick up.

Memes are also so cultural. Everyone gets them, everyone knows exactly what they mean.

Chase—Exactly, and there are all these subtle things to it that help you understand. Also it’s really crazy, like have you ever tried to explain a meme to someone? Like you know, the one with the older woman… she has, like, a blanket on her, and she’s like, scared. And then the younger girl is like…. *makes face*. I can pull it up, fuck.

Veronika—I have no idea what you’re talking about.

Lida—I have no idea.

Chase—Fuck, I’m gonna pull it up.

Veronika—I also wanted to clarify something about the name. It’s not just us, it’s everyone. Everyone has a cumgirl8 inside them.

Chase—It’s a relatable identity revolved around sex, revolved around the internet… When we say we met in outer space, it’s like, whatever the internet is.

Veronika—It’s everything at the same time, we’re all of it. Extraterrestrial.

Chase—Intraterrestrial. This meme, do you see it? Everybody understands it, but, like, how do you describe it? The lady is like… and there’s just so much going on, and there’s no language to explain these things. Language is such a cheap way to communicate.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Chase—Lida, tell her what we just learned about!

Lida—I’ve been listening to this podcast with Joe Rogan and Elon Musk, but he’s saying that we’re going to become symbiotic with AI possibly in as little as 5 years. And we’ll be able to communicate our complex thoughts to each other without language, because language is actually super limiting. So you’ll be able to transport your thoughts onto another person and they’ll just see the whole thing. Already our phones are extensions of ourselves, we’re already becoming symbiotic with technology. The transition is already happening.

Chase—It’s like that law that says technology doubles on itself exponentially every year. Because the way that we invented a car, and then all of a sudden we were in space, and now all of the sudden we can hear someone in Australia.

Lida—Since they always listen and give you the ads, I just started telling my phone, like, I want this thing.

Chase—So wild!

Lida—There have been times where I’m thinking something and I haven’t even said something out loud and it comes up. Like what?!

Chase—It draws connections between what you’ve searched for and knows what you’ll think about.
