Not shaping, just shaped. (posthuman.blog)

quoting from a blog I've found this week through a link on lemmy ☞

Jaws? Gone. Chewing deprecated.

Mouths? Gone. Nutrition is delivered via IV. All communication is text-based.

Heads? Permanently tilted forward in screen-prayer. Cervical spine fused into gamer hunch.

Eyes? Massive, glassy orbs. Double eyelids evolved into mucus membranes for seamless TikTok consumption.

Fingers are long now. Disturbingly long. Dry, twitchy, curved for optimal touchscreen input.

We don't walk. We scoot. Legs are shrunken. Ankles fused. Technically functional, spiritually broken. Like a 2016 version of PHP.

We're pale, not ethereal, just unwell.

Hairless. Slick. No need for insulation when you never leave the pod.

Swollen asses. Reinforced tailbones. Biological seat cushions for lifelong sitting.

i'm guessing that the writer of this blog is in their early twenties or late teens and the blog gets interesting as a window to the screen-praying generation that i can't sympathize with.
