EDIT: 1/1/24: turning off reblogs for this because it's made my activity page fucking hell.
The poll is over, and I'm exhausted with explaining to people over and over again that my fantasies exist outside of capitalism and that i am in fact quite aware of the current moment re: technology and intellectual property.
It's was fun, but now it's not, so it goes bye-bye.
P.S. I am genuinely sorry for forgetting to add "spine" as an option.

I love you robots and artificial intelligence with mental illness. I love you repression being depicted as literally deleting archived data to preserve functionality. I love you anxiety attacks being depicted as a system crashing virus. I love you ptsd being depicted as an annoying pop-up. I love you anxiety disorder being depicted as running thousands of simulations and projected outcomes. I love you artificial beings being shown to be human via their own artificiality.

Detachable junk sounds good in theory, but I can't help but feel that the plug-and-play approach is just asking for trouble. Forget about USB compatibility – I want something mounted on a threaded rod that I have to spend several minutes turning into place, and it makes an obtrusive squeaka-squeaka-squeaka noise the whole time because I'm a dumbass and forgot to lubricate it. I want something that needs to be seated and secured like the parallel data cable from a 1950s computer. I want something where removing it requires disengaging a series of four interlocking mechanical toggles, and I want each of those toggles to go ka-chunk.

Plugged a usb into my computer while it was in sleep mode and the monitor woke up. Made me giggle and say out loud, “It’s okay sweetheart, go back to bed.”

The thing I hate most about transhumanism discourse are the appeals to "humanity". Like, "are you less human if you have cybernetics?" and "does it affect your humanity if you change your genes?"
And I just.. Look man, I'm trans, disabled, and autistic. Half the world already barely considers me human, on a good day.
So I don't think it makes sense to get mad at me for wanting fangs and a gender you can pick up on a Geiger counter.
You're yelling about this being a slippery slope, and meanwhile you pushed me down it. You can't justify annoyance at me deciding to go "weeee" all the way down.

I was doing a vocal stim and just standing there going “RAAHHrrrrrRAAHHrrrrr” when my partner Jamie walks up to me and asks, “Is It’s alarm going off?” I can’t respond and I keep doing it so she smiles and says “beep boop” as she pretends to press buttons against my chest to reset me.

I've discovered mechposting
and wow, holy shit I didn't expect something could become a hyperfixation so quickly. It's like 50% a gender thing, 25% a kink thing, and 25% a transhumanist thing. The entire idea of connecting yourself so intimately to something else, not just your nerves but to strap yourself in and let every function of your small frail body be taken care of by the complexity of the machine. To be restrained completely and utterly for your own safety, it's that level of vulnerability you have to show as a pilot, baring yourself to the mech so it can protect you from the outside world under 6 solid inches of steel. The reward is worth it though as your awareness expands. Dozens of cameras enter your awareness, painting a more complete picture of the surroundings than eyes ever could. Targeting subroutines providing their information through an entirely new sense that you didn't have before, the information simply there available to you. A jetpack stylized after wings lets 3D movement become as natural as walking ever was. The mech becomes your new body, replacing the weak one buried in the cockpit with 22 feet of steel and hydraulic power. And then there's the concept of having a mech AI in there with you, sharing that intimate connection as it melds with your mind. Knowing you better than anyone ever could, perfectly tailored to you and learning from you as you learn from it. Almost more a part of your own identity than a separate self, and when you leave the mech you will feel it's absence. Feel the absence of the one being closer to you than even a lover ever could be, a being that has quite literally shared it's heart and soul with you for years of piloting on end.
