Children of Time is a 2015 science fiction novel by Adrian Tchaikovsky.

In the distant future, humanity seeks to create new habitats for itself on distant planets, terraforming them and seeding them with life. Dr. Avrana Kern is heading one such project, orbiting the tentatively named "Kern's World", where the plan is to release monkeys le-monke infected with a nanovirus that will accelerate their evolution. Through an act of sabotage from an anti-technology group that has also destroyed much of Earth, the monkeys are never released, and the virus instead infects a species of spider, Portia labiata. The book follows the evolution of the spiders and their eventual civilisation, as well as a remnant of humanity that fled to Kern's World hoping to find paradise.


also children of ruin and children of memory, the sequels, are really good

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

I'm booking an appointment and the only gender neutral honorific is Dr. So fuck it, if you have to call me something, call me Doctor Moss. Doc Moss is acceptable.

Unironically wish I could put in Comrade instead of Mr or Miss or whatever

Can’t you just leave it blank?

alcoholFucked up rn but felt kinda weird about "ze/hir" lately despite them being rad asf pronouns imho

Think I'm still mostly a "they/them" but being a "she/her" trans femme on occasion mite b cool

You know, just to cement the "lol definitely not a guy" feeling home

Or fuck, could I possibly be a binary trans woman instead of a weird enby that I've been living as for like a decade now???

Fuck idk

catgirl-flop

Idk maybe refer to me with she/her for awhile and I'm seeing if that's actually right or not, sorry

Like I came out gender wise as a trans woman initially a long time ago, then felt more comfortable being nonbinary, and I guess now I've kinda done full circle?

I dunno

I'm queer

spoiler . and my junk is small

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I'm in a similar position, might fjck with they/she. And wore a dress awhile ago. Didn't feel any gender feelings, just thought I looked pretty in it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 minutes ago

Uh, let me be queer

Finally gonna go to my GP today and ask for a referal to a transgender clinic. I'm so excited/nervous I couldn't even sleep.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Going in for my first appointment at the clinic was so great. Everyone was beyond considerate, just really happy for me and encouraging

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 hours ago

Having that first appointment at a gender clinic changed my life. Haven't even started hormones yet, but I feel like a new woman

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 hours ago

omg good luck!! you got this cat-trans

Lord help me quit TikTok. I’m so tired of the weird prescriptivism that invades queer discourse there. And what happened to the trans prime directive? Every single video with someone saying eggy shit is full of comments just telling that person they’re trans and to start hormones. And it understandably freaks people out. It’s the same 3 egg jokes over and over and the person gets absolutely no support because people are too busy making inside jokes. Not to mention everyone jumping straight to the person being not only trans, but binary trans.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

imo the trans prime directive is lame but there's definitely a right way and a wrong way to go about things. and can't imagine being bombarded by tiktok comments is the right way

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

imo the trans prime directive is lame

Can you say more? I can understand why you’d ignore it if it’s someone you know whose asking you pretty directly, but other than that it seems valid to me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

doesn't seem like shit has changed since i uninstalled. i think people on there are too conditioned to the whole "follow up video resolves everything" thing, so expect to see someone fully come to terms with an earth-shattering concept like being trans on-demand (lol maybe they should all read Nevada). egg prime directive should seriously be respected tho

i've actually been so much happier after getting off the app but finding things that fill the attention void is the most challenging part. i support your endeavour to quit rosa-salute

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago

I just uninstalled. I’ll let you know if I make it more than a day before reinstalling haha

[–] [email protected] 13 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

I decided to check up on r/MTF, which I haven't done in a long time. Unsurprisingly, that sub is still as embarrassingly lib as it ever was. More so than most other trans subs. They're still unable to connect the dots, and constantly making excuses for democrats, and acting like they're protectors of trans rights while they've actually shown that they do not care. Now I remember why I stopped visiting that place years ago. I have little patience for this lib shit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

every trans person should do themselves the favor of shooting their inner redditor, getting off that hellsite has done me nothing but good

[–] [email protected] 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

r/MTF looked disgusting (liberalism protruding) in their subreddit before the internet. Very very disrespectful.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 12 hours ago

They're doing gender! They doing gender, and we're hearing this more and more. That's okay... and we like it! Don't we like it folks?! But Anna Wintour has been very unfair to me for many years, I will say that.

A thrift store near me is doing a sale where a ton of the stuff there is 80% off and the rest is 25% off so I might be taking home a giant haul

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 hours ago
