Cyberpunk discourse 

I genuinely don't understand the enthusiasm for cyberpunk style corporate body modification in a world where when my phone's battery started to die, the company who made the phone decided the solution was to kneecap the phone in an attempt to make me annoyed enough to buy a new one. Two years ago airports were full of warning ads that were like 'hey yo this phone explodes'. I want to be a catgirl too, buds, but I'd rather my parts not explode, idk.

@angrboda I fully get that the idea of a modular body is appealing to folks with disphoria or dismorphia but like... capitalism isn't going to give you that thing without massively fucking it up.

@angrboda @angrboda every cyberpunk novel I’ve read is about how the future is an awful corporate capitalist hellscape so this sounds about right
