The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This is likely an Extraordinary Citizen, one of the ones possessed of enough insight to work with Enlightened Citizens without fear of statistical inevitability, but unable to actually create overly advanced technology themselves. 020
The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 06/10/2026If you think that plagues are as commonplace as they once were, then you don't know history. However we may rule, it is undeniable that we have shared the benefits of advanced medicine and technology with the masses. And do you really want us stepping up the monster hunting efforts? 110
The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 06/10/2026If someone is able to see this account, then they either know or should know the actual history. We're thusly invoking the "Come on, we're all grownups here" clause. 120
The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Before we came along, the average life expectancy was 30 to 35 years, a handful of empowered people abused their abilities in order to rule the people without sharing the benefits of their power with them, plagues were commonplace, and monsters ruled the night, feeding upon humanity.static.klipy.comDarrell Johnson's 'You Are Welcome' MemeALT: Darrell Johnson's 'You Are Welcome' Meme 210

The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Your personal lack of understanding of social psychology is unfortunate, but we don't feel obligated to remedy this deficit at the moment. 010
The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 05/10/2026All of the technology that we have now was once considered cool. Familiarity breeds contempt. It would have done so with pneumatic tubes as well, and as you point out, with worse consequences when things broke down. That's just how societies work. 110
The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The latter, though any technology that predates the official formation of Iteration X by that little can realistically be credited to that Convention considering that it was made up of largely the same people from the International Brotherhood of Mechanicians. 010

Which works better for you: A Celestial Chorus member with several dots in Spirit, or a Kha'vadi with a monotheistic paradigm? I'm heavily inclined towards the former. #wod #MtA 101

The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 03/10/2026You still fall for that stereotype? It's like the cliche about the geek virgin when the nerds I knew in college were fucking each other like crazy.

The Technocratic Union @thetechnocracy.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Yes. The incongruity provokes amusement. If people thought that dogs could be wizards, it would not do so.
