gonna make a cyberpunk setting with prosthetics and cybernetics that outlast their owners. even with advanced medicine, humans only live for a hundred years tops -- but titanium doesn't age, doesn't rust, doesn't break down. and it'd be a waste to destroy it, so the insurance cartels just repossess it upon body-death, flash-sanitize it, and then put it back into stock for some other poor bastard. they're cheaper, pre-made, already calibrated - only problem is that some people who get refurbished prostheses complain about phantom reflexes, nerve inputs they never sent.

Xa ontogeny
The Xa and how they grow. The brown-feathered kiddos past age of 1,5 are already able to fly somewhat. Xa don't show any sexual dimorphism, so there's only one Xa image for each life stage. Here's more about this sophont: https://www.tumblr.com/total-convergence/726112557515128832/tcxa

Harrow the Ninth, Thoughts part 2
There's a parallel between Harrow and Humanity in The Locked Tomb that I find terrifying as a Biologist.
Harrow, is the sum of 200 children, sacrificed to create one Child.
Humanity, to be Killed and Ressurected, Jod released the Ressurection Beasts. These have been going around, attacking planets with life, in their madness as revenants.
To combat and stop these Beasts, Jod and the Lyctors have been Killing Planets. Harrow says that most of these life forms on planets are simple, bacteria or other single celled organisms.
Evolutionary speaking, these are the beginnings of life, baby or child biospheres.
Jod and the Lyctors are doing what Harrow's parents have done to have her, but on an unimaginable scale. They are killing Planets on the first steps of life, Infant Biospheres, strangling them in their cradles, for the sake of ONE FORM OF LIFE: HUMANITY.
No wonder John tells Harrow it's not her fault, he knows what her parents did, how it feels like. I think, that's why he puts a lot of focus on Harrow. He wants to know that what he is doing is worth it, and perhaps Harrow is proof of that.

Hi. I'm Efan, and this is an urgent request.
PLEASE REBLOG IF YOU CANNOT ASSIST!
I am a disabled, trans, and queer game designer looking to live again to afford medication, sustained housing, therapy/psychiatry, and some money to save for emergencies.
We have been doing very well with the Help Me Exist Again game bundle (linked here), but we need one final push, as we only have 2 DAYS left to raise some funds.
So, if you would like $80 of games for $25 to get HUNDREDS of hours of games and also change my life, buy the bundle below!
In this bundle, you can obtain:
GRIM, a retro FPS styled TTRPG inspired by Quake.
Neon Nights, a cyberpunk TTRPG with nearly infinite build variety, and it's two MASSIVE expansions!
Wrath of the Undersea, a TTRPG where you play as vengeful Eldritch peoples trying to reclaim the colonized surface.
Disk Master's expansions, where you can live out your Pokemon or Digimon dream on pen and paper!
This money will go towards affording therapy, medication, possible HRT (I am still deciding), and a new computer for work and enjoyment.
This money is life-saving, allowing me to not be on the verge of living with my parents in a transphobic county that is damn near a sundown town for trans people. I really need this money to live, and I would be eternally grateful if you could reblog and send this sale to someone who you think would help.
And if you can't support the bundle or any games, or just plain wanna help another way, head to my Linktree below for my Patr3on, Kofi, and other things.
Thank you so much!
