Listen just because my underconfident and socially awkward bug lady protagonist joins a ragtag multiracial fantasy airship crew and finds a human bf among them who uses their tramp freighter gray market status to undercut East India Company type resource gathering firms and deliver anti-ship weapons to tribal lizard folk and the world is kinda shitty because they're discovering capitalism and discovering how if you just pass laws against racism it doesn't magically stop racism and also there are factory worker rebellions happening back home in the West doesn't mean I have some sort of agenda

Heinlein has entered the chat and immediately received a ban

Look just because I'm trying to figure out the DnD equivalent of 9/11

(looking at my story where a catgirl has magical powers and lives in a communist utopia) uhhhhhh

I like how the Disco Elysium writers did historical materialism in the world building. There's the central conflict over the strike that sets the stage for the murder and Harry's story, then you have the revolution/civil war and the coalition airships hovering in the background enforcing the counter-revolutionary order. So class struggle is at the root of everything else in that world. It's like you can decide you want to tell a story rooted in a particular class conflict, then the dialectics of the class conflict help you elaborate the rest of the world, it's an interesting approach.

Don’t mock my furrtocracy, pheasant (the lowest social class in Squirrel Hooters world)

Choose these:

1. Dominant fish women

2. Killing fascists with your comrades

3. Communism with a focus on intersectionality

Best possible combination ✨

I'm planning a thing that I want to write and... yep, this is pretty much it

Unjust Depths is perfect, actually

Ha you can scratch off line one for me because I know how to keep the horny out of my writing.

A sci-fi setting where a comparatively minor planet overthrows its monarchy and becomes a nascent socialist project. It is immediately beset by other major powers in the solar system and wrestles with building socialism and also the military. Eventually, it is overwhelmed by reactionary forces and the revolution is overthrown.

I like exploring how shared trauma affects people differently so it's a more character-focused story. The main characters are former socialist military who struggle to adapt to the political reality post-reaction. Some try to fade into society, some still believe in the cause, others join the reactionary forces. Former friends set against one another.

Oh and the characters are anthropomorphic fly-boy pilots with ~~sexy~~ well-designed flight suits. There's also some weird consciousness enmeshing technology that I'm still fleshing out.
