can't wait for the technofuture

Reality bends at the edges. Data shifts, words rewrite themselves. Maybe I was never here at all.

you'd think considering we've been living squarely in the hypercapitalist silicon valley technofuture for some time now, that with all the scraping and selling of your data, the "algorithm" would actually be y'know, good?

Like cmon, i know its about engagement not about making a good customer experience but you'd kinda expect that like if twitter or tumblr is feeding everything ive ever done into the machine that spits out the "for you" page then maybe it would be able to do better than just showing you every post that has the same tag as the last post you liked.

Or amazon being like "we saw you recently purchased a flat screen tv, have you considered buying more flat screen tvs?" Shouldn't you be able to predict what i need precisely when i need it by now? Instagram knows i like ttrpgs so for the past year has been continuously advertising Mothership to me, a product i have owned for many years already. How is this working out well for anyone?

film and television are pretty good but by weight they're not nearly as good as their eleborate sets. elaborate sets are such a fundamentally good object, i think they have the potential to be the highest form of art, if people treated them as high art. its like...maximal sculpture. instead of an object, a space. i guess people do this with video games but its extremely not the same as a digital object. unfortunately an elaborate fully-artifical set is very expensive. so. maybe in the post-scarcity technofuture

do you like space. space pirates. a little technofuture body horror. child brides. triangulated obsessions. our hot friend changbin. large unsettling cat hyunjin. lovingly detailed spaceships. anxious hottie and excellent captain bang chan. well it was my privilege to have any part in this and you should tune in

bb tell me more about electro?

oh, GLADLY!!!!! :D

Electrodendra Vantris was, as i've said before many times, adopted by Faera Vantris. but BEFORE that, he lived in their original universe, which was within a GALACTIC SPACE COLONY. he had family there- their mom, his (other) parent (nonbinary/enby), and their sister. it was very sci-fi/technofuture- think Star Trek, or pretty much any science fiction show you've seen.

however. an Extremely Bad Thing happened one day- the planet cracked in half and everyone died. to put a sorta-long story short, Electro came back to life and put a stop to the person who Did The Terrible Thing, but couldn't revive their family or people. so he left. they started traveling to different universes, trying to find a place to belong, but he never stuck around long.

and THEN he found the Havenplace universe- specifically Havenville! and THAT'S when Faera was like. ooooohhh shit, there's a random homeless teenager who i keep driving by on my way home from work who never seems to have a home to go back to. maybe i should try and domesticate them like you would a feral cat (which wasn't his exact phrasing of thought, but it's pretty much what happened, lol)

An AI monologue. A name that doesn’t exist. A story that rewrites itself. The first glitch in the system is always the hardest to notice.

🛒 What are some common things you incorporate in your fics? Themes, feels, scenes, imagery, etc.

🧐 Do you spend much time researching for your stories?

These questions were in response to THIS ask meme! ✨

🛒 Oof, I found this one very challenging. Had to ask my spouse for help, but I think we've got it in the end. Let's break this one down:

Themes - Hope, Longing, Grief and Guilt. Please note that "themes of hope" doesn't mean the stories are necessarily hopeful in their plot or ending. Sedulius in Iron Will, Crimson Whispers was always hopeful, even though his hopes were constantly dashed. Also, I gravitate towards ritual and religious themes. I am not religious myself, I just find belief very potent to write about.

Feels/Vibes - Characters who don't quite understand each other. Camaraderie and fellowship, sometimes with a romantic or sexual component. My spouse says I tend to leave space at the end of my stories for the story to carry on, which helps them feel like part of a wider universe. They also mentioned shades of grey to the characters, as the same character can be a hero or a villain depending on the story and PoV.

Scenes - I love writing melee fights, though I can't say I've nailed the OTT "bolter porn" vibe yet. Characters reuniting after a long absence. Intense non-sexual intimacy, like being branded or sharing blood. Rituals, whether cultural, Imperial or Chaotic.

Imagery - This one stumped me. I'd be interested to hear what others think. My spouse says I have a wide knowledge base and draw from real world cultures as well as technofuturism. They say I often combine the two. Seems normal for 40k to me, though.

🧐 Sometimes! I never know quite how much external work each story is going to take. One good thing is that a lot of my research for this fandom can be reused because it goes into the worldbuilding for my Salamanders stories in general more than one specific fic. However, I've also ended up doing a surprising amount of reading about food production in inhospitable landscapes, survey techniques, and mycology. I also gave myself a refresher crash course in geometry for a throwaway line in a story that very few people read. 😆

Every instagram artist post is like so glad I was able to harness the abundance of the universe (my parents paying my rent) to really sink into my new body of work these past two years <3 (mucky abstract paintings supposedly about accelerationism or technofuturism or whatever) im so grateful to my sweet friends @888sk8 and @c0ldc4sh for being geniuses and angels 〰️🌎🪞 (two guys with multiple credible sexual assault allegations)

I always skipped this episode because I thought it was boring (I was 12, whaddya want?) but the point that she is obsessed with StrongMen despite living in a utopian technofuture (with two of the hottest men in Hollywood) is just mwah!

the space seed episode of tos where they find khan and the ss botany bay is so funny because right off the bat you have kirk being like "yeah let's get that historian whats-her-name out there, maybe she can be useful for once" and it's like WOAH what's up with the liberal arts hate?? why is kirk being such a bitch to this lady for no reason. then you meet her and she's fucking obsessed with historical strongmen to the point of covering her walls in her own fanart. she lives on a spaceship in a utopian technofuture and she sleeps surrounded by busts of kings on purpose. her vibes are fashy and kirk is right to be a bitch, actually.

then they get to the botany bay and she's immediately driven to distraction by how horny she is for ricardo montalban under a thick layer of extra-dark foundation. sorry i'm gonna compare montalban with and without the makeup because it is SO distracting

also she refers to sikhs in the past tense implying that at some point in the last two hundred years there was a genocide that they're just glossing over. since she also calls them a warrior race it's also possible that she's just racist and somewhere on board the enterprise there are sikh crew members who dislike her as much as kirk does.

anyway you can assume that this is her first actual away mission and she fumbled immediately because she was so hot for khan but it's much funnier if this isn't the first time this has happened. every time they have to interact with a historical earth artifact she gets so horned up thinking about being a tradwife that she's rendered speechless. spock stays polite but kirk can't stand her. by the time kirk found out she was the type of person to paint her own portraits of napoleon and roman emperors to hang in her quarters it was too late to send her back and request literally anyone else. he's supposed to court martial her but offers to let her stay on fashy eugenics planet just so he won't have to keep her on his ship anymore. it's unclear if he lets her take her paintings or jettisons them into space.
