I think e3 is over and I hope that means I never hear about whatever that cyber punk drama was about again
I learned more about the origins of a genre I’ve never read than I ever cared to know
Thankfully, as we know, people really quickly drop culture war stuff as far as videogames go
“-and now, President Highever has ordered deployment of additional troops to fight GamerGate-sponsored insurgents as the Montana crisis continues. The troops, who are expected to arrive on Wednes-”

Following final victory of the Good Feminist People in the Great Gamer War, the old archetype of Man has been abolished.
Seeking to end sexual oppression, and empowered by novel tissue engineering techniques, the possession of a penis is limited to only those who can prove they are sufficiently Woke, enforced by a powerful licensing agency.
In practice, those with power in the corrupt government are those who can ensure their license remains in effect, no matter what crimes they commit. These same patterns of abuse are used to justify the licensing regime, while leaving social and financial power unexamined.
David Florence’s license has just been revoked.

I was thinking more along the lines of Alan Greenspan.
While Bereton and Yu argue that Mitigated Chaos was an alias of one of several other figures in the Post-Neoreactionary movement that emerged early in the 2030s, and Harvey argues that Mitigated Chaos was a joint project between several authors, we demonstrate using reverse textual analysis and schedule modelling based on post timing and employment records that the true identity of Mitigated Chaos was Robin Lo, a DMV clerk located in Oklahoma City at the time of the Second American Revolution.
We dispute the arguments in Levy (2078) that Mitigated Chaos was the original name of the highly obscure VR film author “Destiny Playwright.”

Let’s be honest. Kylo Ren doesn’t even have baseline cybernetic enhancements, so if I told him my full gender configuration matrix, it would just render as an unreadable string. (He’s probably not even K-band neurotype, tbh.)

By 2056, every Wikipedia page of any figure of note, from George Washington to clerks for the Song Dynasty, has one of these as the primary image on the page instead of, you know, a painting or photograph.
Disney bought the rights in 2077 and manufactures a line of branded, family-friendly (by 2077 standards) androgynoids.

Everyone, sing along:
The inputs aren’t together with the outputs
And the outputs aren’t together with the inputs
For each task a dedicated subsystem
You are the network,
You are the treeThe display is for displaying
The arm for throwing
The display doesn’t choose
Where the arm is goingMemories are their own network
Stored inside your brain
Hardlink only can dive your memory
Dead or dying in crimson rainYou are the network
You are the tree
What’s you is you,
and what’s me is meFirmware is manual update only
The touch of the cord inside,
Validated and crypto-signed
Is the only right way for parts to singThe songs of the aether are broken
A great storm that seeks to consume all it sees
Broken hearts and broken minds
If thy let it in to theeYou are the network
You are the tree
What’s you is you,
and what’s me is me
I mean, admittedly I kind of left out the rhythm entirely in translating it, but you get the idea. Every good child, raised by high-aptitude-scoring parents, is taught this at age 6.
No one foresaw the emergence of the new genre of electronic music, which came to be known as cybercuck.
SAN FRANCISCO—In an effort to reduce the number of unprovoked hostile communications on the social media platform, Twitter announced Monday that it had added a red X-mark feature verifying users who are in fact perfectly okay to harass. “This new verification system offers users a simple, efficient way to determine which accounts belong to total pieces of shit whom you should have no qualms about tormenting to your heart’s desire,” said spokesperson Elizabeth James, adding that the small red symbol signifies that Twitter has officially confirmed the identity of a loathsome person who deserves the worst abuse imaginable and who will deliberately have their Mute, Block, and Report options disabled. “When a user sees this symbol, they know they’re dealing with a real asshole who has richly earned whatever mistreatment they receive, including profanity, body-shaming, leaking of personal information, and relentless goading to commit suicide. It’s really just a helpful way of saying to our users, ‘This fuck has it coming, so do your worst with a clear conscience and without fear of having your account suspended.’” At press time, Twitter reassuredly clarified that the red X was just a suggestion and that all users could still be bullied with as little recourse as they are now.
