Haha, no worries! You were right to call it out.

Well, med school might be related to the 3-year pause thing.

Honestly, the situation was just too absurd/twisted/funny not to write about. I also had nothing to do yesterday so that helped.

I'm gonna write a part two about everyone turning against me, thinking I'm a bot haha.

The blog has been running since 2022 under a different domain name. It was then focused on economics, as the archive suggests. I'm currently migrating articles from the old host.

Thank you for clarifying.

I will keep that in mind.

Interestingly, a few hours after the posthuman.blog post circulated on reddit yesterday, the embedded amazon link at the end of the original post was suddenly edited out.

They're among us.

I'm not a bot (or am I?)

It didn't hit the news tab yesterday, only "new", because my account is newly registered. So I reposted it one more time.

Beep boop.
