Retconned Wardi firearms- a basic handgun, a highly decorative ceremonial handgun (belonging to Faiza), and a lance-gun.

Gun tech has officially been nerfed down to hand cannons (press F) (this has been a long time coming but I'd been fallacy of sunk costs-ing myself out of retconning).

Handguns are held similarly to a shotgun, with the butt pressed into the user's shoulder, one hand gripping under the barrel, and the other free to ignite the gunpowder. These represent the most advanced firearms in contemporary usage, both in make and in their use of uniform iron projectiles built to match the gun's bore for greater range and efficiency. Lance-guns are the more basal form, usually larger and mounted with the pole held over the shoulder, and are most effectively used by two people (one to hold and aim, one to light the gunpowder).

The spread of firearms is currently mostly limited to the Eastern Inner Seaway peoples (with some additional distribution via overland trade), and actual manufacture of hand cannons and gunpowder at Significant scale is limited to the region's core powers.

The reason for this limited spread is partially due to specific elements of the technology's history. Gunpowder was first synthesized by Burri alchemists and considered to be the discovery of the legendary divine weapon + solar fire of the deity Inanariya, and its formula (along with techniques for ideally refining its components) remained a closely guarded state secret. It was used predominantly in priestly contexts to generate flame and explosive sounds (in conjunction with earlier practices of generating multicolored flames with use of other chemicals), then integrated into combustible weaponry in the forms of fire lances, which would eventually develop into early handcannons.

The treatment of gunpowder as a guarded sacred or semi-sacred substance continued with Wardi adoption, where knowledge of its making is considered a closed rite. It's name (inya tsatsul or just tsatsul, a derived adoption of the Burri iñazatsūya) still reflects a divine solar association (the Burri word means 'sun's thunder', the Wardi 'inya' invokes the sun, 'tsatsul' is an adapted loanword and has no meaning independent of the substance itself), though its priestly use is now predominantly associated with the firearm'ed Odonii (rather than priests of the solar Face Inyamache). The composition of gunpowder can no longer be regarded as a Secret by any means, though efforts to obscure the methods of its creation are still moderately successful and has kept knowledge of gunpowder manufacture more limited than the total sphere of firearm usage itself.

The actual strongest limiting factor of firearm usage is the rarity of natural saltpeter deposits necessary for making gunpowder. The practice of actively producing saltpeter via nitraries has not been developed anywhere in the setting, and all is instead obtained via natural sources. These sources are rare and limited within the current spread of firearm technology, and result in gunpowder being a limited and expensive substance to produce. The weapons themselves are also very expensive to manufacture (a good quality steel SWORD is far too material-cost prohibitive for most people to own), particularly high quality firearms designed for use with standardized ammunition.

These guns are also very basal, and logistical difficulties in their use (weight, very slow loading and firing speed, high visibility, Relatively low reach and accuracy) along with the restrictive cost of production has kept firearms far from rendering conventional weaponry, armor, and projectiles obsolete (even within the societies that have access to them). They are still, however, very devastating in use within their contemporary context, particularly in that high quality guns have a longer range than the best arrow-based projectiles, and utterly negate most contemporary forms of armor at close range.

I personally think with the focus the administration has on restricting women and people they see as such, it’s fair to say that transmascs will be just as deeply affected by their actions, just with less direct language (which goes with how transphobia often tends to look for transfems and transmascs vis a vis hypervisibility vs erasure). That said, I want to remind folks that what this government is doing is meant to exhaust you by making you freak out about everything. It’s supposed to be too much, and if you worry about all of it, you will be paralyzed. I’m not saying don’t worry (I hate the “don’t worry, it’s all illegal!” perspective, because the law is not immutable or total and will be ignored). I’m not saying to ignore orders that don’t directly affect you. Care about your community, and how the orders affect it, not about the orders themselves. Find those less fortunate than you, and bring them up. Find those more fortunate than you who are sympathetic, and invite them in (yes, even if they kinda suck. I’ve been there, but “kinda sucks” is better than ���wants you dead”). The only way we’re getting through this is together. Be strong, be brave, and we will make it through this.

yeah, I'll be honest we've been trying to keep this a joyful space and as such have been trying really hard to keep mentions of politics at bay for the most part. but "kinda sucks" is better than "wants you dead" is EXACTLY what our point is with reblogging things like that last heritage post. The right is *extremely* good at overlooking the particular differences amongst them in favor of uniting over a common enemy- part of which is our community. The left, by contrast, is incredibly fragmented because of infighting and the desire to label things and not associate with people who may have a singular view slightly different than our own. Infighting only stands to benefit the enemy- we're stronger altogether than in our own smaller groups.

anyway sneak peak for of my wips-

[thehours2002]

Why does Lumon want bark so badly? He is history professor specializing in WWI. What expertise are they trying to harness? Presumably not his informational knowledge of history because Mark S. barely has any context for his existence.

If they want Mark because of Gemma/Ms. Casey, then, why did they want her? (Whether they brought her back to life or faked her death or whatever...) She is a Russian literature professor. What does she offer them if they have wiped all her cultural memories? What makes her an interesting "test case"?

Anyway, this post is just an excuse for me to be like, WHY ARE THEY BOTH HUMANITIES PROFESSORS?!!
