[FRIAM] Isness: Using Multi-Person VR to Design Peak Mystical-Type Experiences Comparable to Psychedelics

[Stephen Guerin]

and I'm learning that twink could refer to the cheating player themselves
or in Glen's use:

" It can also be used to describe the process of keeping a video game character
at a low level while using in-game currency, earned by a high-level
character, to provide it with superior equipment."

I think I will try randomly using "it's time to get my twink on" with my
gamer son.
