Back to developing /who/'s chuubanite
Core thread concept: civilizing
Ability/Effect: Passive, unknowing effect (at least to in-universe people at this time). Passive transmission of ideas and thoughts among people. A few passive thoughts would dominant the unconscious of the people.
Active effect: Direct, one way communication of thoughts. Relatively short ranged (1-2 km radius?) when directly using chuubanite, but have wide effect. Only effects people with /who/ chuubanite in body. Catlognauts can direct thought much further and can focus in on a few individual. (Still no more than ~10-20 km in radius).
Thread concept: brain rot
Ability/Effect: Passive and active. Passive: Use of chuubanite on human body can cause "brain rot". Short-term effects include memory loss, temporary cognitive impairment. Long term, intense exposure can lead to brain mass decreases and turns brain tissue "spongey". Active: directed/area. Subjects may experience various forms of mental dysfunction. Most commonly impaired chronoception.
Thread concept: library, store of information
Ability/Effect: Passive and active. Able to store information within chuubanite, in the form of sounds and images. Crude ones could only contain limited information. More complex ones need mechanizes to "read" information within.
Can use some other pointers to further develop it. Rep what would you say are the "concepts" of the split? I think maybe we should focus on more organic culture meaning chuubanite only has a relatively minor effect? Since there's already too much written down that it might be a tad hard to rework things. Also what's your reason exactly to oppose "mind control"?
