Oh nice. One of my formative texts is available to be borrowed from #ArchiveDotOrg https://archive.org/details/semiotextesf0000unse/mode/2up (or for download from libgen ⛵oops I 🏴☠️, yoho). I should probably reread that for a laugh sometime.
I wonder if the screen reading experience allows the flipbook animated robot cock in the bottom left corner to work as well as the paper edition

Identities are hard to let go. I've been through it more than once. I try to hold onto them more loosely than I used to.
I used to know a guy who when talking about his past who would say, "That was in one of my other lives." There's something to that.

He has a new book out - Juicy Ghosts.
And a deeply moving blog posted yesterday for his just passed wife. 😢

The thought reminds me of the AI-assisted metanovels from #RudyRucker’s #Postsingular.

@bond The term "dreampunk" hasn't really taken off yet, but the genre has been blowing up for a while. Take these two new releases in the top 10 on #Netflix, for example.
Good examples that come to mind are @neilhimself's #TheSandman, Jeff Noon's #Vurt books, Murakami's Hard-Boiled Wonderland...
I put together a site with a description of the genre and a bunch of examples of #books, #movies and #TV, plus interviews with #dreampunk authors like #JeffNoon and #RudyRucker: https://whatisdreampunk.com/
