Elijah wants to become a human/machine hybrid, and when he wins a sponsor to the creative Olympics, he finally gets his chance... until he discovers nothing is as it seems.
The Legacy Human is the first in a philosophical hopepunk sci-fi series that explores the intersection of mind, body, and soul in a post-Singularity world.

Welchen Gegenstand wĂŒrdest du deinem Buch zu Promotion- Zwecken beifĂŒgen? (z.B. eine Figur oder Landkarte oder, oderâŠ)
Kommt auf das Buch an. FĂŒr meine "Falkenflug"-Trilogie arbeite ich da gerade an Charakterportraits in Form von Tarotkarten. đ Ein paar davon habe ich als Beispiele angehĂ€ngt. FĂŒr den "Sagittarius-Krieg" experimentiere ich gerade mit Personalakten (mit Bild).

#vendredilecture #sf Eutopia de @camilleleboulanger@corneill.es Sous forme dâautobiographie dans un futur lointain, lâauteur propose de prendre nos distances avec nos modes de vie actuels et de penser un autre vivre ensemble. LâomniprĂ©sence de lâalcool et du cannabis, bien que nâĂ©tant pas le sujet, me rend perplexe. De mĂȘme que lâomniprĂ©sence de la culture dâavantâŻ; je sais bien que câest la meilleure façon de critiquer notre civilisation, mais ça donne un peu lâimpression quâil y a peu de crĂ©ations nouvelles, en particulier cinĂ©matographiques. La façon dâapprĂ©hender la parentalitĂ© mâa paru un peu Ă©trange. Autant je trouve tout Ă fait gĂ©nial que toute la communautĂ© prenne soin des enfants, autant, 3 ans, pour trouver un enfant suffisamment autonome pour prendre son envol, ça me parait lĂ©ger. Je comprend parfaitement Gob pour le coup. Elle a manquĂ© de lâaccompagnement Ă©lĂ©mentaire vers lâautoromie que tout parent est censĂ© fournir.

my stomp boots, these many years closeted away
not for embarrassment or protection, but fitting
while I regaled the comforts of running shoes
and admittedly, some farm wear of the overalls sort
did this morning come again into play, painted
in cheery sinshine yellow, specifically that I might
in the name of science, apply my strong left foot
where it was needed most, the paint most definitely
not just implying, but outright demonstrating
pre-meditation, post-meditation, and meditation
generally, upon the subject of scurrilous boot-ass
and how, with enough protein shakes, one might
some bleak morning, emancipate an entire space station

Und eins davon ist meine Dystopie "Duplik Jonas 7"!
Als SchullektĂŒre gewĂŒnscht zu werden, ist schon ein besonderes Kompliment, finde ich. Ich freue mich jedenfalls sehr. đ

read Blindsight, a fascinating first contact sf novel with a theme about the nature of consciousness. people that played subahibi will note some things also touched by that game (though the stories themselves are not really similar)
The man who mistook his wife for a hat is actually a source for both stories. as for the novel, I don't regret reading it but the really interesting bits were somewhat sparse

"The House that Art Builtâ is a historic showcase in San Francisco.
In addition to the exhibition, which features 11 artists associated with the Oakland-based nonprofit Creative Growth, SFMOMA has also permanently acquired more than 100 works created by artists with developmental disabilities.

NEW STORY, OUT TODAY:
#SF dispatchers received at least 24,000 calls about mental health crises or attempted suicides in 2023, including calls from bystanders and police, based on our analysis. Often responders couldnât find the people in crisis.

NEW:
Common narratives about #homelessness and #mentalhealth in #SF focus on people who reject help. But last fall, our reporters met an unhoused man so desperate for care that he asked to be detained just to get his meds. đ§”
