Aysha U. Farah: The Good and Bad of Cyberpunk

What even is cyberpunk? THIS WEEK: Writer Aysha U. Farah joins to talk a little about their experience with gender, as well as to discuss a certain high-profile cyberpunk video game currently making the promotional rounds in the game-o-sphere. We explore what the genre means to us, why we think so many people get it wrong, and offer up some atypical examples of it being done right. ALSO: Some minor discussion of Homestuck and Hiveswap Friendsim, because what's a cyberpunk discussion without a little self-flagellation?
