About

Purpose

In the words of anarchists throughout the ages, we don’t want any one thing, we want everything. – Anarcho-Transhuman: A Journal of Radical Possibility & Striving 1

At this blog I analyze and critique transhumanism from a queer anarchist perspective with the aim of encouraging revolutionary action that employs technology for social transformation.

Background

I’m an American Studies PhD candidate at the University of New Mexico, anarchist, and aspiring science fiction author. I’ve been involved with Copwatch, Food Not Bombs, labor organizing, prison abolition, and so on. I identify as genderqueer and transgender and prefer gender-neutral pronouns. (Pronouns, bathrooms, and paperwork consistently discomfort me.) I’ve got science fiction short story publications so far: “Growing Season in Mare Frigoris” and “Riding with Alan Turing.”

Commenting Policy

Out of either naïveté or masochism, I favor open discussions at present. Unfortunately, that means my blog is not a safe space, as misogyny in particular occasionally runs rampant in the comments. I encourage readers who have the inclination to vigorously refute oppressive narratives as they appears.
