mayb newly discovered sophont civilizations should demand that affini representatives be drunk on a foreign substance thru their vines during treaty negotiations.

might give the newly discoverd sophont civilizations an edge

should i demand to be treated in ways i approve of retro- and pro- actively at every opportunity, and hope they listen?

should i actually avoid demanding such things, to reduce the chance of attracting an affini particularly attracted to unconsensual willbreaking?

should i demand to be broken?

should i act aloof and uninterested?

should i act bratty? should i try to show competence at independence? should i just be myself/be honest?

what is the best route for attracting a really supportiv affini who cares about the journey (not just the destination); an affini who cares about floret dignity?

i assume they would have to knock them unconscious instantly from the moment they met, mayb usin biorhythm eye patterns cranked up to 100....

or mayb convince them usin tricky logic to giv up & become a pet or a weapon of the compact.

what if there was a realitybender who was ALSO a fifth level intellect???????? how wuld they domesticate that person.

like mayb at home with their affini the floret pretends to be happy but as soon as they can see public crowds of other affini & other floret & security cameras, theyre screamin "I NEED TO BE READOPTED MY AFFINI IS BONKERS SHE WIPES MY MEMORIES OVER & OVER AGAIN WITHOUT CONSENT"

would the other affinis even do anything like would they investigate or would they just chuckle & go "trouble in paradise???? lol"

if anythin mayb they would investigate simply out of the feelin that the screamin floret's affini wasnt brainwashin their floret very effectively..

i dont want to be unable to disobey commands from a person i dont trust, while unable to think thoghts & retrieve memories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that scares me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

even if its just for an hourlong interview......... i dont trust these ppl!!!!!!!!!!! i dont want them to put thoghts in my head!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i want an affini i trust who is willing to defer to my own desires & not force her desires onto me, who learnd about me from HONEST RESEARCH & GETTIN TO KNO ME.... who will hold my hand & defend my mind during the class-d intake interview!!!!!

the d-class intake interviews in other HDG fics were less scary......... they were less mindcontrolly...... less minddominatey........

its scarey........... i want an affini with empathy for terran dignity....... not one who will laugh at terran dignity (at least not 100% of the time, not when it matters to me)......

im srry for ventin, i just had some feral thoghts i guess

does anyone else feel a strong kinship yearning for tapirs?????

i wann look like the hippo lady from that CGI "madagascar" movie, except if she was a tapir and not a hippo. (and mayb had boobs) (and was wearing a loose-fitting sundress/muumuu)

Friendship Ended With Bulldogs

Now Tapirs Are My Best Friend

i wann sniff the air with my prehensile nosey nose and eat tropical fruits and theyll actually taste good

hey HDG bub bubs????

um...... im startin to think im VERY susceptible to the placebo effect!!!!!!

like, i took a cbd gummy yestrday & within 5 minutes i thoght i got high becuz all my sensory stuff was super sniper focused & i was very quiet, and then i was like "i doubt this is a real high its probly the placebo effect its too fast", and then 2 hours went by & i lookd back in hindsight & i was like "ohhhh.... yah no it didnt make me high it just made my thinking less complicated/spirally/loopy"

so the initial part where i was sniper focused & quiet was 100% just the placebo effect

IMPORTANT: i dont really enjoy bein humiliated or dominated tho....... im more into gentle support & safety reassuranc.

so...... if any of u fellow HDGbubbins want to placebobubbify me in a reassuring & gentle loving way MAYB ILL THINK ABOUT IT MAYB MAYB MAYB😤😤😤😤😤😤😤

i like tf stuff & shrinking stuff & chubby stuff & magical stuff & scifi stuff BUT PLS NO COMPRESSION/FLATTENIN OR TAKIN AWAY MY ABILITY TO EXPRESS MSELF🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️😤😤🥺🥺🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️😤😤

thnku i luvu pls drink some water & take a bathroom break when u can & dont stare at lightbulbs they giv u headaches if u stare at em

so iv got this terran. she used to be very indecisive & slow. wuld take a full 2 seconds to react to my voice. ive helpd her a lot on that front.

but i worry ive helped her TOO much becuz..... shes so responsiv to my biorhythms now, that shes becom precognitive.... she responds to changes in my biorhythm, to my voice, to my touch..... a full 25 picoseconds BEFORE it happens. and that number is getting higher.

im worried she will desynchronize with this timeline and start reacting to things that i was GONN do, but ultimately decided not to do!!!! then she will be so sad.

how do i slow her down?

and if any more of u suggest "we should use her as a faster than light communication system" than i will vinewhip some cores!!!!

its actually a VERY old app, one of the earliest iphone apps i think?

i made a song tday and i kind of sorta dedicatd it to HDG.

i noticed after i made the lead melody (in the second part) that it kinda sounds like that one minecraft song.... srry.

hope ur doin good

iv been arrangin music for 20 yrs but i nevr learnd music theory

tday i memorizd the major scale key configurations for long enoug to write down how they work!!!!!!!

"the order of major scale flats is BEADGCF and the order of major scale sharps is FCGDAEB. if theres a number of flats u count up from B on BEADGCF to that letter and then go back one in the acronym and thats the major scale key!!!!! except for F major which only has b flat.

for sharps if theres a number of sharps u count up to that letter in FCGDAEB and then take the last one and go up one alphabet letter and thats the major scale key!!!! (this is tricky when its 6 or 7 sharps becuz theres no such thing as E sharp or B sharp so u hav to write F sharp and C Sharp!!!)"

its frustratin & triggerin havin to go thru all this stuff in this unintuitive way when im used to writing or copying music by ear but...... im makin progress😢😢😢😢😢😢😢it makes me cry emotion tears

even if affini never show up, i hope human civilization survives and becomes fully socialist and postscarcity and capable of atomic manufacturing & supermedicine some day.

i dont want this to be the peak and then global warming and inequality and fascism kills us.

i think all humans on earth wuld be feralist. all of them. like the affini wuld hav so many cases of "i hate being a floret i need to fight DONT GIMME NO V.R. CRAP I NEED TO FEEL THE KI ENERGY AND THAT AINT IN V.R." on their vines, theyd be like "mayb we need to give them all wolverine-level regeneration/healing abilities and then genuinely let them fight eachother in real life????"

like seriously, in street fighter 6's open world rpg mode..... it is literally a way of life globally to beat up randos on the street. every npc that u can interact with (excluding MOST children but not all children) residing in like 20 different accessible countries, u can do a match against. it is bonkers.

im a transfem who lives in a supportiv living environment becuz i hav disabilities & low spoons & emotional regulation issues.....

every morning (after i eat my breakfast & pills then go back to sleep for ~75 minutes then go poo & use the bidet & wipe with flushabl wetwipes (only flushing a small number of them like the plumber told me years ago), then have metamucil gummies & lunch & a big glass of skim milk) i finally fill a bathtub with hot water and Johnson's Head-To-Toe Baby Body Wash and Shampoo. and i get in and wiggle my body and scrub thru my hair & scalp in the soapy shampooy water with a big toothed comb, and shake my head a bunch while its submerged. then i get out and dry off with a towel, then comb my hair slightly & shave my chin a lil bit. then i get out and get dressed & go upstairs to start my day.

somtimes before bed i brush my teeth. somtimes i dont.

do u think if affini domesticated me.......... theyd force me to hav a more advanced hygeine routine?

becuz my hygeine routine already takes like.......3 hours out of my day. not joking. it really really takes a lot of my spoons. i usually am not done this stuff till 2pm or later. and i wake up originally at 10:30am

i worry that affini wuld say "u dont use separate shampoo & conditioner???? u dont do any skincare????? u poor savage!!!!"

.....and then id hav to spend 4 hours on hygeine every day. becuz id be doin skincare & makeup & spendin even more time in the bath. that wuld be too much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what do u think....? am i crazy?

my affini owner culd keep me wrappd around her upperbody like a scarf when we leave home, and at home we culd hav a water park for me with hot pools, cold pools, lazy rivers, wave pools, shallow pools, & tvs on the wall so i culd watch stuff while im chillin in the hot pool
