(CN: grief) 411) Changebot. There's no easy way to process tragedy. Robots can't fix that, but this one reminds you change is life and you must give yourself time to adapt. There's no right way to grieve. Things aren't the same, but that doesn't mean they can't ever be good againpic.twitter.com/Qq1t15iqfT
419) Secretbot. Confession, Catholics believe, is good for the soul. Certainly there is theraputic value in unburdening oneself of shameful memories, and Secretbot is here to help. Listens, understands, but whatever you tell it will go no further.pic.twitter.com/b0rKBzIVMd

484) Hopebot. Finds you in the darkness and tells you that at the end of every tunnel is a light, no matter how bleak the future looks it is still unwritten, you are alive and a human being with mind, the universe's last defence against entropy. Rise. Continue. Be.pic.twitter.com/PoKvfmPIey
