The computer you are using to read this is a mechanical replacement-representation for ‘access to relational intercourse’ and also for the function and activity of [the link companion]. You ‘ride’ it into ‘a network’. Like money becomes the ordinary substitute for value itself, once you have these replacements, the chances of you discovering what they replaced are uncommonly slim.

The internet can be understood as a representational subposition of an actual transhuman network which is always accessible to every living thing, except many complexly enlanguaged adults. Although the network wants to meet them, they ordinarily reject it — even when it approaches them through their own children.

Yet the internet is as much like (the network it represents) as a single cartoon sketch of your ear is like you yourself, and your life. Many moderns believe that the internet is greatest collection of knowledge on Earth, but they are astonishingly naive about what an organism is. A single living cell contains far more information than the internet will ever contain.

Organisms are experientially entangled with each other outside of time.
