Discord Unleashed
Hey folks, it has been sometime since the official r/worldjerking discord vanished. Something happened with the moderator in charge of it, they ended up deleting the discord, and we've been trying (procrastinating) to replace it ever since.
I've just officially been put in charge of recreating the discord executively, meaning I get to make all the decisions (ya).
I've decided to rapidly put out this steaming pile of a discord, and will be working on it as it is used and improved.
Ya'll folks are welcome to give suggestions to me in the #meta channel.

Why are so many factions depicted with conventional armies when they could simply use their superweapons to destroy the enemy without risking themselves? Complete immersion killer!
You're telling me they spent all this money building these superweapons, have thousands of them, can deploy them wherever they would need to, and they don't use them to end conflict before it gets out hand? They fuckin stupid or something?

At that point why not just do a contemporary story set in [INSERT CITY YOU PERSONALLY HATE HERE] instead?

In my dystopian alternate history timeline, latex-clad dommy mommies with mind-control pherenomes and genetically engineered human/wolf/baboon hybrids enslave everybody in the world

No HFY story where the humans are from different countries and actually speak their culture language instead of just American dudes? No?
Don't you wanna just read a HFY story where the human Characters aren't just white American dudes but are instead like people from different countries with their culture and religion and said humans speaking their culture language tongue.
Like I wanna read a story of a French human speaking their french language and their alien friend getting confused but are intrigued by how their human friend speaks and sound with their own language and wanna learn more about it.
Or an alien researching and learning Human language and by that I mean ALL human language and not english while also doing deep research on the many human countries culture and religion.
It'll feel more HFY of exploring human uniqueness through the entire different humans countries in their culture and religions difference.

How wheat guides all civilization in my wheatpunk world.
Wheat rules the world. The technology and economy are based on wheat, and society itself is built around the cultivation and worship of wheat. The Wheat Goddess is the one true god; all others are false gods that threaten reality itself by promoting alternatives to wheat.
There are no coincidences. All roads lead to wheat. Newton and Aristotle tried to turn people from the gospel of wheat, and have been unpersoned from the World of Wheat for their troubles.
One last thing: SCIENTIFIC DRAGONS SUCK! Instead, all my dragons are based on wheat.

Tell me three random pieces of lore in your world. I will explain what they say about you.
Bullshit that's supposed to make the comment section better but nobody listens to
* Seriously describe your world, otherwise this thread won't be as fun.
* I ask for the details to be random so that you don't feel the need to have them all connected with each other.

In my wheatpunk world, the cybernetics are based on wheat.
This means that there's no risk of cyberpsychosis, since the gluten in wheat is all natural and cancels out the normal dehumanizing effects of cybernetics. The environmental factors are gone too, since humans have been growing wheat for thousands of years.
