∅.1 mindwipe (appendix)
“sex, of course, remains our continuing preoccupation. as you and i know, the act of intercourse is almost always a model for something else. what will follow is the psychopathology of sex, relationships so lunar and abstract that people will become mere extensions of the geometries of situations. this will allow an exploration, without any

∅.n mindwipe
“sex is now a conceptual act, it’s probably only in terms of the perversions that we can make contact with each other at all. the perversions are completely neutral, cut off from any suggestion of psychopathology—in fact, most of the ones i’ve tried are out of date. we need to invent a series of imaginary

10.0 sunshine
in weather like this, every bald cyberpunk trandrogyne should make sure that their scalp is protected from the sun, and it is optional, but desirable, for their clothes to be as wipeclean as their brain.

0.1 antisocial
the last time sian had a blog, everything was linked up with the socials. sian was an early adopter of this: facebook, twitter, flickr, even plurk (plurk is a weird one, being an also-ran twitter competitor from the far east that’s literally only used west of singapore by people in secondlife, but which is also,

sian logged in this morning to find someone standing in their virtual home. this is a thing that sometimes happens in secondlife, but it’s doubly unexpected because the person had wound up there quite by accident, and should have been booted anyway, because the land is group access only. but here they were. they were

1.3 third person
it has been noted by more than a few people in and out of second life that sian’s player refers to sian in the third person. they sometimes hold conversations with sian, and hold different ideological and religious views – sian is an atheist, for example, while their meatspace analogue is not. someone asked the

8.0 immunity
sian had their second covid-19 vaccination this weekend gone, and no doubt is now fully implanted with all the tracking and control chips. sian is not terribly bothered by this, because fuck it, how much difference is one more neural implant going to make?

7.0 purity
what does it mean to be good? sian struggles with this; their neurodiverse self-perception in both worlds as a hollow mannequin imperfectly aping human affect (and their horror of that) combines with the fact that they have in the past done some terrible things. they produced a large body of work that was racist, for
