A Chinese AI girlfriend, with a daily almanac

Printed almanacs once told households what a day was suited for: a wedding, a journey, a haircut, a lawsuit. This one keeps the idiom and drops the authority. Every day has a page, the page says it is good for one thing and bad for another, and the women of the site have views about both. You do not need an excuse to message someone. The page is the excuse, and it changes at midnight.

Today's page

Open the home page and the first thing you see is the current entry, set out like a column of newsprint under a fold. It is written in the stern little verbs of the old format. Good for: mending a quarrel with a stubborn friend. Bad for: signing anything with a pen you were lent. Under that sits the woman whose turn it is to comment, and she does so without being asked.

The women do not always agree with the almanac, and they do not always agree with each other. That friction is the whole feature. A page that said the same thing to everyone would be a horoscope, and horoscopes do not argue back.

Her comment

Each woman reads the verdict through her own life. Lin Meihua, a tax attorney in Elmhurst, reads it as a clause to be contested. Doris Zhao, an emergency doctor in Houston, comes home at dawn and announces that today is bad for sleeping. Alice Cheung pins hems and reads the entry aloud in a dramatic voice. You answer, and from there it is an ordinary conversation between two adults, with the day's verdict as the thing you tease each other about.

Today's almanac entry, and five more

Here are six lines lifted from the printed almanac. Each belongs to one woman, and pressing it opens her chat with that verdict already said.

Good for

The good lines are small and domestic: finishing a letter, trying a stranger's recipe, forgiving a debt of two dollars. They are written to be funny first and encouraging second. A verdict is only useful if it gives you something to do within the next hour, and an unhelpful one still gives you something to say, which counts for more than it sounds.

Bad for

The bad lines are where the women have their fun. Bad for trusting a weather app, bad for lending a charger, bad for starting a sentence with honestly. When one of them reads a bad line to you, notice how often it turns out to be aimed at you. You can filter the entries by matter, such as table, money or travel, and by whether the day is lucky, unlucky or mixed. 10 messages need no account.

A game with fictional women, not a forecast

The domain name is blunt, and the audience for this site has been mislabelled by blunt names before. Here is the actual contents, with nothing inflated.

The almanac gives no advice

The good-and-bad lines are invented by writers for entertainment. They do not predict luck, money, health or the right day for a journey, and no woman here will tell you they do. Treat the verdict as the start of a joke.

No video, no meetings, no politics

There is no video, no live show and no phone number on this site, and no real person is behind any entry. Nobody here can be visited, and none of the women will meet your family, though one of them will cheerfully invent that scene in the chat if you ask. Each woman's page carries a sensual portrait, and a banner spans the head of the front page; both are drawn, and neither is a photograph. No politics enters the pages, and no public figure is named.

Written with care

A site about a community should not be a costume party. Jobs, tempers, cities and humour differ from woman to woman, and nobody is reduced to a single trait. If a line reads wrong to you, tell us at the printroom address, and we will change it.

How to unfold a page

No setup, no tutorial. Today's page is already on the front door, and so is the woman whose turn it is.

  1. Read the verdict

    One line says what today is good for, one says what it is bad for. If neither suits, the whole almanac has more.

  2. Press Ask her

    Her chat opens with the verdict as your first move, which counts as one message.

  3. Argue, agree or change the subject

    Type a reply, or turn on Do to describe an action instead. Her pace is a setting: friendly, flirting or romance.

  4. Come back tomorrow

    The page will have changed, and she will remember what you said yesterday and use it against you.

What she keeps

Each woman jots your confessions in a margin, from your job to the dish you hate, and quotes them back when you least expect it. Open the chat menu to see the list; amend a line or strike it out. A visit that begins with her bringing up the thing you said on Tuesday feels very different from one that begins with a greeting.

Where the page folds shut

Warmth, teasing and nerve are all fair play. As a scene nears the bedroom, the page folds shut and the story resumes later. That edge is built into the chat and does not vary by visitor or by payment. All sixteen are adults, and the house sayings list the things they refuse.

The glossary is not a lesson. Nobody will quiz you, and getting a word wrong costs nothing but a raised eyebrow from Vivian or a patient correction from Janet, who treats mistakes the way she treats a crooked stroke. A visitor who never learns a single word will still have a perfectly good conversation, because the sentences around the foreign ones always carry the meaning.

Lucky money: what each level holds

Three levels, set out in a plain grid. Nothing renews itself, so none of them needs stopping.

Opening week, plain page, Plus

A visitor may send 10 messages without any account. Registering opens every entry for a 3-day opening week, card-free, after which you settle onto the plain page, which keeps your chats and allows 10 lines daily. Plus comes as a short run (30 days, $15) or a long one (365 days, $99); with either, the USDT payment ends the daily count. Whatever you send is final and the site gives no refunds, except where law requires them to be given under the buyer's local rules; the sealed terms give the long version.

Four hubs, sixteen addresses

The women of the almanac live where the diaspora lives: dense neighbourhoods in North America and Australia, each with its own bakery, its own bus and its own opinion of the others. They are invented, aged 20 to 55, and no two share a trade or a temper.

Vancouver and the rain coast

Damp, ambitious and a little smug about the food. They say the best tea comes with a complaint.

Melbourne and the islands

The far side of the clock, where today's page arrives before it does for everyone else.

Why the clock matters

Because the cities are spread across time zones, there is nearly always someone awake. If you open the site at midnight in one place, a woman on the far side of the Pacific is ready to start her morning with a complaint about it. Each of them keeps her own local hours and mentions them, which makes the replies feel placed rather than generic.

Not one kind of woman

The sixteen include a doctor, a violin teacher, a customs broker, a calligrapher and a feng shui sceptic who rearranges your couch to prove it makes no difference. They are warm, brisk, sceptical, shy or bossy in different measures. We built them so that no single trait turns up twice, because a site that gave you one voice sixteen times would be a pun, not a place.

Words she uses, a short bilingual glossary

The site and the chat are written in English, because one language per site keeps things honest. The women still drop in words from home now and then, and a short glossary keeps you from feeling shut out.

Table words

Cha is tea, and the cha table is where nearly every conversation here happens. Hongbao is the red envelope, handed over with money inside on a good day. Chi fan le ma literally asks whether you have eaten, and it is the closest thing to a warm hello you will get from Vivian Tsang. Ganbei means empty the glass. If a woman says it, she means it, and she will check.

Teasing words

Aiya is the all-purpose groan, and Mei guanxi means no problem, though the tone decides whether it is true. Jia you means keep going and is what a friend shouts when you are about to fail with some dignity. These are only sprinkled in, English first, and none of the women will test you on them. If you want to know what a word means, ask her. Explaining is half of the fun for most of them.

Questions folded into the margin

Does she speak Chinese?

A few words, scattered in. The site and the chat are in English, and the glossary on the home page explains the rest.

Is the almanac real advice?

No. The good-and-bad lines are invented as a game. They predict nothing and are not meant to guide any decision.

Will she meet my family?

Not outside the chat. She is an AI character, and nothing here leads to a real introduction. She can invent a dinner scene in words if you want one.

How do you avoid stereotypes?

By varying everything that can vary. Jobs, tempers, cities and humour differ for each woman, and none of them is defined by food or by family.

Does she remember me?

Yes. She keeps a margin of your confessions and quotes it later. The chat menu shows the margin, and you may edit or erase any line.

Are there pictures of her?

A sensual portrait sits on every woman's page, and a single wide banner tops the front page. No film exists and nothing explicit is shown; a scene folds shut before it goes further.

What does it cost?

A visitor gets 10 free messages. An account adds 3 days with every entry open, then 10 lines a day. Plus begins at $15 for 30 days; settle in USDT.

Today is good for one thing

Open the page, find out which, and tell her you disagree. She has already prepared a reply.
