why? why is my brain like this? I'm already starting to consider picking up a new project that'll likely end the same. my entire lifes work is fragmented unfinished projects, some small and easy to finish if I had the motivation, some decently proportioned to my skill level and capable of being finished with slight effort and learning, and some so large that it would be impossible for myself to finish on my own. why do I do this?

>writing a futuristic setting
>includes transhumanism
>despite not wanting to write trannies, if transhumanism is common place, trannies would be too
>with transhumanism equalizing human capabilities, more women in male spots too
>don't want to write trannies though

what if I just dont write trannies and later say "they're so accepted that they dont need to be mentioned or pointed out" if asked?

>I cant imagine a council consisting of multiple far spread countries similar governments speakers uniting to brief eachother on the major situations, with smaller governments based off of the main form of government, usually going by the same name with the same principles as the main form of government

the UN. but in space. most, actually all, countries in the UN are democratic with capitalist economies. the UN makes major economic and war based decisions together, and is united with similar goals. of course in space, it would be more heavily tied and complex with economic and war based decisions, and of course, like the UN, there are countries outside of the UN who do not agree with democracy, and some who dont agree with capitalism.

what you cant imagine is the UN. congrats.
