#transhumanist — Public Fediverse posts

#TIL what #TESCREAL means. I'm impressed by the explanatory power of conceiving of this cluster of #ideologies as an #interconnected #aggregate which then get used to justify #harm

I feel like a lightbulb went on and that I understand the current state we're all in a bit better now.

Highly recommend starting with the @wikipedia article, which covers the #concept and some of the #criticism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TESCREAL

Thanks go to #Bhante #Sujato (https://sujato.me/) for making me aware of the term.

#FarEight will hyper focus on the beheading of #Jesus, not #genocide in #Palestine, of course. #Transhumanist #Evangalists & #Groypers are already saying # #Israel is to blame for a war with #Iran that they didn't want. They are just going through the motions of rationalizing their #Antisemitism.

it's safe to say that "the much smaller market of #transhumanist funeral rites" was not a sentence i ever expected to see in my life

i feel like i owe the #EpsteinFiles a heavy debt for exposing me to these kinds of literary experiences.

#AlteredCarbon, the book, not the watered-down #Netflix series, is one of my favourite #SciFi #DarkFuture #Cyberpunk #Transhumanist works. #ThinAir, also by #RichardKMorgan, is another one I've already started reading; time for another go! A socio-politically charged #thriller set on Mars… #booksky

When his #nonbinary #cyborg friend Carrie and the #transhumanist church they go to comes under fire from a gang of right-wing #antitech #luddite activists, #ya #teen #hero Jack Dinero and his father must rally the small town of Creosote Canyon, #Arizona to stop the violence and make some bizarre new friends along the way.

🤭 the transhumanist cybernetic Übermensch replacement theory; don’t think MAGA qualify for that. Being hung up on trans and whatnot? The automated control of information processing and its final solution, eliminate the people! #transhumanism #transhumanist #broligarchs #FascistTech

My "#Queer, #Transgender, and #Transhumanist Themes in #Transformation Media" Panel starts at the end of the hour.

I will be joined by established Queer Transformation #writers @furufoo and @MadamMateria, and we've got a lot to talk about with this one, so it's definitely worth seeing!

Heart-in-mouth as I publicly share new non-academic writing/ voice / identity through personal experiences of early #menopause via a “blog” called Menopassé. https://open.substack.com/pub/mayameme
My most recent post is about #transhumanist ideals appearing through HRT. https://open.substack.com/pub/mayameme/p/trick-or-trickle-down-transhumanism?r=qn6d&utm_medium=ios

By the way, I'm going to be doing at least two panels at the online #Transformation themed #ShifterCon on October 26 (Saturday in a couple weeks).

#Transgender / #Queer / #Transhumanist themes in Transformation Literature and #TextBased #RPG / #Adventure #Games about Transformation.

Attendance and watching the streams will be free, so keep an eye out!

(Also, if anyone wants to come on and present or be on the Q&A part of these panels with me, I have open seats)

I stumbled upon a GitHub repo with all 17 issues of Extropy magazine, a #transhumanist publication from 1988/1996. I couldn't find a list of article names and authors, so I made one. https://reboil.com/mediawiki/Extropy

The #transhumanist fantasy isn't that uploads will work, it's that your brain is worth anything. Uploaded minds are a cost sink. Why would yours be worth maintaining?

Wow. Mike Levin has finally come out as a full #transhumanist: https://noemamag.com/ai-could-be-a-bridge-toward-diverse-intelligence #TESCREAL

I'm not sure "most of us think this way about the world we want for our kids"... at least I don't. Not at all. I find this toxic optimist "vision" utterly naive & disgusting. /1

Everything is submissive and hackable if you are brave enough including biology

#transhumanism #transhumanist #biology #morphologicalfreedom #kinky #science #biotechnology #biotech #freedomofform

I know how to do shit like mixing Styrofoam and gasoline
I know how to edit DNA as im developing the tools and about certain biotech
I know how to make a mini rocket engine
I know how you can use microwave components with powerful lasers and high voltage electronics
I can 3D print
I know hypnosis
And I know how to leave this vessel partially
I can make shit go boom
Also I can repair computers and electric scooters in this realm

Everything I run is rooted or modified in some way

Hack the world and if it can't be modified make it so

Gennady Stolyarov II discusses radical life-extension, social & political activism, today's revolution in Artificial Intelligence & prospects of a future Technological Singularity. FULL INTERVIEW: https://youtu.be/EzqiIcMb6D0

There’s another dimension to AI revulsion:

LLMs, properly applied, are a cognitive prosthetic.

In other words, we’re encountering a commercial bid for a #transhumanist project with mass impact

Now THIS is genuinely scary stuff, because to become cognitively dependent on a corporate-owned extension of the mind is to cede significant power to people who genuinely do not deserve it.

I'm in a mood and desire to get back into #philosophy

Any recommendations for modern #anarchist #leftist #technology #transhumanist #Marxist #egoism #nature #antifascist #history #historyofideas #epicurean #nuclear #ageofinformation #internet #Christianity #Atheist #computersciene

Books? I'd really like a modern take on egoism that isn't saturated in fascist/libertarian thought because I personally think it makes more sense in a leftist context than individualist mythos

I'm Siv. I live, work, create, and activate in #Lansing, #Michigan, #USA.

I believe effective #praxis toward global #MutualAid society must center #economic #justice and #healing traumas in the human #psyche. Cultural violence is a durable response to #scarcity.

I help run the services and facilities of the #praxisdotred #tech #collective and #hacker house, such as this #mastodon instance.
