I’m like... never here anymore, and it doesn’t feel right to show up just to purge some longform essay feelings into the world and then disappear again, so I mostly keep to the tweets where I’m at least active and engaged with folks, so it feels more balanced? IDK. I don’t want to take advantage of anyone’s time/energy, you know?

But in case anyone was wondering, I’ve had a pretty productive month or two:

why are cyberpunk tabletop things so obsessed with decency and personhood being tied to how many surgeries you haven’t had

“if you have a prosthetic it takes out a part of your soul” like thanks shadowrun

in early cyberpunk, the point was more along the lines of “if we integrate technology into our bodies we risk becoming dependent upon the people and institutions who control that technology, who would then use that to enrich themselves at our expense”

unfortunately that was too anti-corporate for American mainstream culture so as cyberpunk moved out of its niche it became “uhhh it eats your soul I guess”
