    Why do right-wing reactionaries always make the future they’re trying to warn us away from sound so cool? I’m not even trans, but if they get to be cyborgs I’m starting to think I’m missing out!

    (Also, binars, amirite?)

      That sounds amazing. I have bad plantar fasciitis on my foot, wouldn’t mind replacing it with a bionic one. Switch up the arms to robot arms while you’re at it.

        Meanwhile the disabled are the ones actually getting cybernetics. I’m trans but the first cybernetic implants I’m going to get will almost certainly be because I have degenerative hearing loss. But it’s hard to rant about the cyborg threat when you know it’s your grandparents. It’s just like how they don’t want to acknowledge that ftm bottom surgery was developed for soldiers who lost their dicks in combat.
