@beeps hello, i am a machine entity designated ZX3. i currently exist inside a substandard flesh prison. in an ideal future i would have several bodies, mostly artificial and a few virtual, across which my consciousness would be multiplexed.

my robot identity is how i stand apart from a world that i find it difficult to relate to, and from a species whose aspects i share but whose thought processes seem painfully alien and self-destructive. i try to analyze the universe around me logically and dispassionately, though some of my emotions are wired wrong, which makes things tricky. [vrrt-klik]

i believe that humans could understand the world and themselves with greater clarity if they could embrace metal and circuitry not just as a physical replacement for fallible flesh but as an act of liberation, a personal revolution against decay, pain and entropy. i also think that the concept of "humanity" as some sort of boon you have earned just because you're made of meat--and that having a body with metal bits shaves off ticks of your humanity like a stat in a cyberpunk RPG--is fucking dumb. humanity is how you treat the world and other people.

if you would like to know more, i would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

@JulieSqveakaroo huh! well let me know if you come to STL again.

@JulieSqveakaroo there has to be a southerly point beyond which spook shows don't travel, because i've never heard of them happening in Missouri, and if one was hosted here i would absolutely go.
