“i am a monument to all your sins” is such a fucking raw line for a villain it’s amazing that it came from halo, a modernish video game, and not some classical text or mythos
not caring if people think you're stupid is a life hack. recognising that you are kind of stupid is an even bigger life hack. we build entire societies to take care of each other bc we're all kind of stupid. it's fine.
kyhuine southern (dry valley group) crop farmers in a field of "siesu". Which are basically mold balls that can be used like cotton.
The post will be updated with additional text later about domesticated siesu and its usages.

Any space lore?
Well ive been thinking about Kess a lot; i think i want it to be a sort of portaling event in the larger Zeros-Wbing Canon;- lemme grab the neocities link rq
(ive also posted this article verbatim on this blog!)
I think i want the "Star People" to be a sort of missing link between timelines that the Wasteland/New Millennium connects. With that in find; Kess is (in the more fantastical "deep lore") the "10th house of the Sun" (Horus) aka "Midnight". Playing on the vibes of Sakaar in the Thor Ragnarok movie, basically; but tying this to the stuff ive written about Egyptian Gods into my lores :3
For sci fi flavor; [Re] is the "Meta-Chorus" Element (it can be used to create Strand-to-Chorus interfaces; for Destiny Headcanoners (Alkahest!)) {Conlangers Note: [Re] is Sol-Rel-Sol reference} -[GRIMOIRE]
Building on this; Kess is a "Gateway"; thus, he can be Seth, in my old homestuck lore Seth is a "Seer of Doom". The Land of Black and White; and thus, a counterpart to Janus! -Maggie the Archivist
The Spurned are the Spirits left behind by those caught in Horus' fevor; this is the wisdom of the Throne; and thus is as useful as it is dangerous. -M0therV0X
Traders beware when sailing the Mother River; for in the thousand years hence the New Millennium began, it has shifted course greatly. Cairo is buried and forgotten; born anew time again. Perhaps i will have a map to show soon... -Guin
PSA for people planning to vote in the OTW election: there's pretty good evidence that the candidate Audrey R. ran for Congress as a Republican just last year. Check ballotpedia for "Audrey Richards". This isn't a person I'd trust with our works.

I submit to you that the most iconic feature of any animal is either unlikely or impossible to fossilize.
If all we had of wolves were their bones we would never guess that they howl.
If all we had of elephants were fossils with no living related species, we might infer some kind of proboscis but we’d never come up with those ears.
If all we had of chickens were bones, we wouldn’t know about their combs and wattles, or that roosters crow.
We wouldn’t know that lions have manes, or that zebras have stripes, or that peacocks have trains, that howler monkeys yell, that cats purr, that deer shed the velvet from their antlers, that caterpillars become butterflies, that spiders make webs, that chickadees say their name, that Canada geese are assholes, that orangutans are ginger, that dolphins echolocate, or that squid even existed.
My point here is that we don’t know anything about dinosaurs. If we saw one we would not recognize it. As my evidence I submit the above, along with the fact that it took us two centuries to realize they’d been all around us the whole time.
