Watching the frontflap work to keep control in the lower atmosphere, lit by something burning out of frame, after seeing a third of it evaporate and get blown off by hypersonic plasma. Beats the supersonic flips flight 1 gave us as the most metal thing I’ve seen a rocket do

Looked convincing at first, but it felt too clean- Then at 7 seconds in, you can watch a white panel clip straight through the door and windshield lol

And that’s why we sanitize our inputs

I do think that the canon reason for plantigrade legs in your universe being you can’t draw digitigrade is pretty funny, I like it!

As a hard sci-fi enthusiast, my universe is set only a few hundred years later. Anthros are just a consequence of nano-biotechnology advances allowing people to design, print, and inhabit the bodies they want -be it biological or synthetic-, and are a minority of the total “human” population. However, I tend to focus my attention to stations and habitats colonizing and exploiting the rest of the solar system, and the furry / human ratio is much closer to 2:1 off of earth. My bet is the type of person who is willing to leave their human form behind isn’t far removed from one who is willing to leave their planet behind as well- and with interstellar travel in its infancy, even leaving their system behind is possible.

From transistorized conciousness to commodified nuclear power, the furry thing is just one part of my universe. But it’s an important one, as it allows people to adapt to their environment while they adapt it for us all.

Tired, mostly. Everything I depend on seems like it’s wearing out, falling apart, or actively sabotaging itself. I have to fight manipulative assholes, corporate greed, and plain entropy decay just to exist. I’m tired of every corner of my life being under attack from something.
