General for discussion of Human Domestication Guide & related fiction.Digital librarian edition>What is HDG?HDG is a collective kink writing project about the Affini (an advanced precursor civilization from outer space), who aggressively care for every other species in the universe. They have finally turned their glittery eyes on future grimderp hypercapitalist nightmare humanity. Using their natural charisma and various classes of Xenodrugs, they aim to make Florets (d̶o̶c̶i̶l̶e̶,̶ ̶d̶r̶u̶g̶ ̶a̶d̶d̶l̶e̶d̶ ̶p̶e̶t̶s̶ loved and cared for individuals) of us all! But don't worry, they only have everyone's best interests at heart, even if their methods aren't even remotely consensual~>Where can I read it?Read the original story here https://readonlymind.com/@GlitchyRobo/HumanDomesticationGuide/or the wiki: https://hdg.wiki/thread transferred to greener pastures: https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/78108583

>>78227752Hell yeaI wanna fall into an undefined mass of vines leaves flowers and thorns and then just be sloooowwwwllly dragged in untill im being squished and held tight from all sides and just PRESSED up against her coreThats normal right? Healthy normal indie thoughts.
getting to your affini's office before them so you can climb up and fall asleep on their chair
>>78227804Guess they cant work now, since it'd be rude to move a sleeping floret and all.
>>78227814what does a busybody clerkfinni even get up to on an unexpected day off
>>78227669Don't want to spread discourse to the thread but:I don't really feel offended by it I just think you could be a tad sympathetic to the general point that spreading this to every corner of the Internet attracts annoying chuds. I do think discord people's whining about being on 4chan is a bit silly. This thread has remained stable for years and it's not going anywhere. It would be better to not let redditors hear about imo. At least the cis guys on 4chan are usually respectful and quiet. (I do generally think that trying to keep her a trans and disabled space is good). Redditors have to make everything about themselves. It's so annoying Maybe I phrased that a bit weird initially, forgive me I just woke up
>>78227850>Maybe I phrased that a bit weird initially, forgive me I just woke upAh. Nah thats fine, its on me for myself getting easily offended at implications you seemingly didnt even intend. Water under the bridge.I do have to agree that a bit of gatekeeping is infact a good thing. This isnt generally a popular opinion, i think, but being *too* open for everyone to come in leads to a community being diluted by people with different visions and opinions. Like, not to say you should make your hobby or community a SEKRIT CLUB NO OUTSIDERS ALLOWED!! But keeping a bit of a lid on it is a good call, we see the result of failing to do this all over. Not to mention that, yes, this being a trans aligned setting it would attract hateful trolls. Side note: i misspelled "Implications" and my browser first suggestion was "Implantation". Fucking cooked lol.
>>78227986Yeah bro I don't think you're surviving that wardship hearing in fact
>>78227784>Who wants pizza vinefed to them by a loving owner?fuck you>Is starving on your ship really conducive to your estrogen treatment petal?i don't have estrogen treatment because i'm not a tranny. i just like to imagine being a girl sometimes. and i have a hard time looking in the mirror. still not trans>If you're so free how come all of you are skinny and starving?i look better now than i would if the weeds captured me and threw me in the mines
getting really mad at the weed who's trying to enslave you but the implant and xenodrugs make it really hard to feel angry so you just get really upset and start sobbing instead
>>78228072Love this artist's content, hate the way they draw affini
>>78227850is this from the new wiki? its cute, promilie does good art
>>78227784I miss FluxomI wonder why they abandoned the discord
mandatory belly rubs for all free terrans
>>78227784Independents> Have you gotten your class Gs updated?"Updated" as in change from one formulation to another? No.My vet did prescribe some though, ward of the effects of aging, keep my skin smooth and such... I was a bit concerned when they did, honestly, since that usually has some further implication and all, but she spent a considerable amount of time assuring me this is fine and normal doesn't have to mean anything.> How long do you really think your going to be independent cutie?Hmmm, about 60 to 80 years? Actually, can you get digitized without being made a floret? If its, then infinitely.I am fine at meeting my own needs, especially with all the support and comfort the compact offers to even independents with no judgement or conditions attached.> You do understand that when an affini wants you she gets you right?What i understand is that that is a load of bunk, made up to scare the rebels and feralists.My neighbor filed a notice on me once, so i called my vet and we filed a counter-claim together, with her vouching that im fine. As you can see it was decided in our favor.She was a bit sad about it, im fairly sure. But she seems to have gotten over it after i sent her a little apology letter about it. We even invite each other to barbecues and such!
>>78227784>> Who wants pizza vinefed to them by a loving owner?I don't like pizza. Compact food is too decadent for my tastes. I enjoy the modest rations given by the TCN.>> Is starving on your ship really conducive to your estrogen treatment petal??!? Who told you I was filching E from the First Mate's private cache? Was it the engineer who helped me break the code? I'll fucking space that rat.>> If you're so free how come all of you are skinny and starving?It's an aesthetic. You wouldn't get it.
>>78228661anamoders are pampered until they're cute and chubby. its the law
>>78228661>I don't like pizza. Compact food is too decadent for my tastes.The Affini are just lying about the food. Stuff like pizza and bologna sandwiches don't actually taste that good, the Affini just cram them full of xenodrugs. When I tried pizza for the first time the flavor was actually so potent that it made my eyes water. I've got a stockpile of synthcubes that should last me a few years, hopefully this Compact shit should blow over by then and things can go back to normal.
>>78227638I really like the idea that terrans are not really special relative to other species biologically, but are neurologically far, far more complex than most species (one standard deviation to the right), and have a genuinely abnormal level of resilience compared to most species in the universe, like to the point that its not a good thing and actively detrimental to their mental health. Like imagine if the affini had never encountered a species that could genuinely experience physiological effects from nothing but knowledge (placebo effect) how fucked up would that be?
>>78228509They're literally in the discord? They weren't in it for a while but they rejoined when Anna left
>>78228893Who's anna?
>>78228848maybe other species dont really worry abt deatha lot of human beings suffer from the irreconciliability between having an overwhelming natural urge to avoid death and the knowledge that they will, eventually, die no matter what they do
>>78228918Annalingus fuckin gottem
>>78228918refering to annabol, an authori dont know anything about the related drama though, not in the discord, sorry
>>78228996Kinda ironic but I also Imagine human mental complexity also opens the door to a near infinite amount of mental illnesses and various neurosis.
>>78228391Awww is petal scared off us? We won't send you to the mines. You'll get a nice caring owner who'll make you into a nice pretty girl. You'll looks so cute when you've gained some weight>>78228556Seems like you really trust your vet. You should talk to her more. Look into her eyes.>>78228661You don't like pizza? Hogwash. We both know that isn't true. Don't do anything violent petal, it's okay to be trans. If you come with us you'll be given proper drugs to grow and thrive.>>78228691True!>>78228816I filed a wellness check for you. I think your new warden will enjoy pampering you
what do you even do if you have a phd or something when th affini take overlike that largely self-directed, life-motivating work u were doing becomes useless overnight
>>78227158God forbid a tranny want to have their own space away from normies, and prevent it from turning into generic HFY junk or theyfab slop.
>>782291for it to become theyfab slop afabs would have to have an even marginal interest in the setting (they do not) and obviously its not ever going to be hfy slop be real
>>78229097>You don't like pizza? Hogwash. We both know that isn't true. I had it once while on shore leave docked at one of the more well-to-do stations. The sauce was too spicy and the meat felt weird going down. The only good part was the bread bit at the end.>Don't do anything violent petal, it's okay to be trans. If you come with us you'll be given proper drugs to grow and thrive.I've seen the class G before and afters. That shit is cheating.
>>78229216I'm sure your future owner will be able to make some to your tastesWhy do you resists us petal? What's the point of useless toil? Why do you call our drugs cheating when they exist to make you happy? Do you like being miserable? Alone? Starving?
>>78229097>Seems like you really trust your vet.Course i trust em. How could i not? I was scared and a bit angry for my first appointment, of course, i think evryone is. People that say they werent were either florted before they got there or are lying.Anyways, on our first appointment they:-cured some hidden spot of cancer i didnt know i had in only one seshion-extracted a considerable amout of microplastics and asbestos from me and my lungs-gave me pills that fixed my onseting liver damage-gave me another set of pills that made my joints healthier and able to move without going "click click"All that in what must have taken, what, maybe an hour? Just cause its their chosen profession, with no expectations of me repaying her in any way, no ulterior motives, and in a surprisingly non-condescending way? (for an affini anyways)So yea, i trust em. We hang out regularly.
>>78229270>What's the point of useless toil?Life is toil, its all toil, even at the most minute level its toil. Being annoyed at the neighbor affini not trimming their tree and the leaves mess up your yard, mealplanning for your floret, parties, whatever work you've elected to do, its all toil. The Great Work? That's universal, infinite toil. >Do you like being miserable? Alone? Starving?We aren't alone, and when we get to our destination planet to hide out on, we're going not going to be starving or miserable!>>78228816>I've got a stockpile of synthcubes that should last me a few yearsWhat kind you got? We've got the jelly-like ones up here. Kinda jealous of the TCN ships that get the harder biscuit ones.
>>78229514those microplastics were scraping the inside of my aortas clean every day! now any aludge or microorganism can take up residence in my body without any horrible industrial toxin to kill them...
>>78229097>regular nightgown that retracts into some sorta shibari at the pull of a stringThats genius i love it
Affini who domesticated a fashy anon and makes him wear a cute cartoony version of a nazi outfit in her colors with the symbol of the Affini compact
Independent who's sick of surprises and whimsey and ends up on a fashy affini ship
>>78229270>Why do you call our drugs cheatingHRT that actually works is unironically cheating. ((is there a story that actually deals with that? like a pre-compact transwoman who looks down on post-compact transitioners?))
>>78230197every other post on florchan /tttt/ is whining about weedshits
>>78230549take the greenpill nonalmao feralists think they'll ever pass
>one chance to pass >born before compact time>not even affini hrt can fix my post-puberty bone structureGrim
>>78230705Florets lose height and stature on hrt all the time>>78230197Ache of malactum>>78229603Life is meant to be enjoyed petal not be endless toil
>>78230798>Life is meant to be enjoyed petal not be endless toilFalse dichotomy.Toil is fun.
>>78230920If you enjoy working and toiling for a greater goal what would be a greater goal than making your mistress happy while she works on making the universe happy petal
>>78230920>man who has never been outside his boiling pit of fire insists boiling in a pit of fire is 'fun'
transferring to a nightmare hellworld so you have an excuse to be a shut-in at home
>>78229107>Affini will almost always win that race in the end, but independent sophonts are entirely capable of specializing in a field above and beyond what an individual affini may choose to do so.you can keep up with your studies and researchyou just have to catch up to whatever the current state of the art is and press on from there
>>78229107there's two or three fics with that premise, i think. the only one i remember the title of off the top of my head is Something Fun To Think About
>>78229603>What kind you got? We've got the jelly-like ones up here. Kinda jealous of the TCN ships that get the harder biscuit ones.It's a mix, a friend of mine who often found things that "fell off a truck" sold me a few crates of synthcubes like a week before the Affini showed up. Gave me a absolutely fantastic deal because he felt bad for me because I went like four days without food since I was broke as fuck. There are even a couple of bougie flavored varieties, which is how I know the Affini are liars. The "Margherita Pizza" cubes taste dry and a little tingly, not like whatever the fuck the Affini "pizza" is supposed to taste like.
>>78229107statistically, you probably have a mental breakdown and get florted
>>78232341that all depends on if you're a protagonist (doomed) or secondary character (potentially just fine)
>>78232377Protagonist successfully escapes florting by inventing a friend that matches the authors kinks better so they get florted instead
>>78229107Depends on your deposition.Optimist>Holy shit physics/biology/math can do WHAT?!?!? I Get to keep learning new shit my entire life!!Pessimist>Holy shit my life's work is completely worthless, everything I ever did, every party I skipped, every time I skipped a get-together with people, telling myself I would "make time later" and later never came, it was all pointless. I'm alone, and for what?
>>78231200>Implying I want thatI toil for myself and myself alone.>>78231266We're only a year out from our hideaway planet, once we're there, its smooth sailing and relaxation away from the prying eyes of the affini.>>78232301Fuuuuuuuuucking lucky dude! We save the good stuff for special occasion, so we mainly get the unflavored ones. I don't like the fancy "food" at all, but I'd kill for a plate of eggs and buttered toast right now. I ate so many of those damn things when we were docked, blew a whole month's worth of pay just eating that for dinner every night.
>>78221480 CUTE!imagine>feralist is a former ocni agent>really good at hiding their emotions, batman tibetan monk shit, not even class-Ds can get it out of them>their Miss gives them a tail to get a more physicals read on their emotional state >they try to pretend their Miss doesn't make them overjoyed, but their tail goes crazy, thumping against the couch
on a scale of "literally never be tired at all even slightly" to "Ehh just dont have dark circles under yo eyes", how harsh are the affini on shitty sleep rythms and insomia and such?I assume if it a larger trend they'll eventualy be concerned and send me to the vet or wardship me, but is once or twice fine? Evry now and then a bit to little sleep?Wheres the limit of "just barely acceptable"?
>>78227784Free Terrans> Who wants pizza vinefed to them by a loving owner?Stars, I havent had pizza in a decade... no, fuck no. Being "vinefed" is demeaning as hell, for one. We were born with our own two hands to manage our own needs and I damn well intend to use them. Besides, I take great joy in the rituals of caring for myself. It'll be a cold day in hell before I let anyone take that from me, especially no starsdamned overgrown thorn.> Is starving on your ship really conducive to your estrogen treatment petal?wedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortagewedonttalkaboutthehormoneshortage> If you're so free how come all of you are skinny and starving?Who, exactly? Me and my men are well fed, thank you very much. Even if synthcubes arent filling and taste like concentrated ass, they provide everything we could possibly need. Honestly it's pretty easy to stay in good shape as long as you arent a lazyass - and all the lazyasses got vented or lobotomized long ago.Side note, its strange but I actually wish for something like synthcubes IRL. I dislike eating as a general rule and would give an arm and a leg to have a little thing I could just take like a foul pill 3x a day and not worry about beyond that.
>>78234668If protagonist>8 hours of sleep, every day, make sure you take Z's to help regulate your sleepIf side character>Eh, once or twice per week is fine
>>78234668If you have to ask us, it's almost certainly over for you. You wouldn't be posting if this were a once-or-twice every-now-and-then problem, would you? Should we take a look at your compiler logs and scan for stimulants? Maybe ask your hab if you've even been trying to get a solid eight hours?When you were initially getting checked in, your vet should have identified and corrected any imbalances in your system, but you'll probably want to go back and specifically ask about this. If there is legitimately Something Wrong with you it'll be corrected or you'll be accommodated accordingly. If this is more behavioral, you'll likely get yourself assigned an affini Sleepminder (See >>73165432) to correct your habits. Do keep in mind that you shouldn't feel obligated to follow a strict sunrise-sunset circadian rhythm. If your preferences (or biology) align more with being nocturnal, or following an atypical segmented sleep schedule, those things are just fine and can certainly be managed! What isn't fine is self-abuse by denying yourself what you need to thrive. What could possibly be so important that you miss out on proper rest?
>>78234668The thing is that if an affini wants you she gets you. So the standards kind of don't matter if no particular affini does but if one does then you need to be on tight

>>78235156>What could possibly be so important that you miss out on proper rest?Prior engagements, duh. I have friends with all kinds of sleep schedules that wanna do stuff and i cant just tell them no, nor do i realy want to, i love my friends! AND theres the shit i wanna / have to do on my own.

>>78228556>Actually, can you get digitized without being made a floret? If its, then infinitely.It depends. If you use the scan-copy method, it doesn't matter, but there'll be two of you, and only one will be digital. If you want to move yourself into the digital, that's a haustoric overgrowth process that gradually replaces your nervous system completely with phytotech, and requires the constant supervision of an affini to keep it from killing you.
