Me neither. I'm very much a 'go with the flow' kind of guy.

Definitely. Although, despite this, some actually pleasant version may possibly be being developed. What do you reckon to that and what are your thoughts on the feasibility of so-called 'transhumanism'?

However, my response, and question, here is only at best tangentially related to the topic I started here. So if you wish to discuss what I just said here in this post elsewhere then maybe we should continue it through DMs—or not.

If you so wish.

"pleasant version" is still a wish. There will always be 'things' that humans have to do to survive that will be considered by some/most as unpleasant.  What pleasant version do you think is being developed?

Transhumanism feels like more wish fulfillment. My impression is that you'd like something similar to Star Trek transhumanism, which will always be a fantasy.

Don't message me. Lets play this out in the open forum.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
