I found quite a few of these to be at intersections I had not thought of, so I think this collection is for people exactly like me, and why it’s so valuable to read about lived experience. The pieces themselves vary; some are clearly quite proficient and practiced in their writing, others are on the opposite end of the spectrum.

I’ll leave the curation of each to people who know more on the subject to me. Some seem a bit odd, such as the Cyborg Manifesto piece critique. A piece of writing 37 years old and about specifically literature. The idea that it has blind spots for lived experience is a foregone conclusion and the author has written numerous other works since that are far better and intersectional. Cyberpunk didn’t see _cell phones_ coming, right. Of course it isn’t pertinent anymore. That people would bring it up to people using prosthetics does expose just how far behind the general intellect is on these things, though.
