+I have lots and lots of ideas floating around in my head. Things for video
+games, programs, music, religions, ideologies, and books. How much do I get

+** The War on God
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: the-war-on-god
+:END:
+This one I started writing but never finished. I have had many names for it
+like The Dialect of God, The Scale of the Universe, and The Side Quest of
+God. Its about a christian star ship flying to a poor planet to convert the
+life forms. The story is less about the christian star ship and more about the
+effects its existence has on the world. The bunk of the story is side stories
+that are only loosely connected to the star ship. The star ship during its
+journey goes off course due to the captain never listening to the engineers
+warnings. They end up flying all the way to heavens gates where they are
+greeted by god and jesus. god is not happy with them. They have always viewed
+god as kind and loving when really god is to be feared. Their god creates
+diseases that kill billions, earth quicks that pull entire cities into the
+ground, mass starvation... The christians didnt fear god and he hates them for
+that. After a speech from god about how much he hates the christians to prove a
+point he takes one of the babies, hands it to jesus, and jesus drop kicks the
+baby into a black hole. btw jesus looks pissed off at them the entire
+time. After the shock gets through god says "fuck you" and flicks his all
+mighty finger sending them into the deepest depths of hell.
+
+*** War on god side stories
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: side-quests
+:END:
+During their journey one of the side jets come off and fall onto a planet of
+hunter-gatherers. This triggers an entire war over who gets the jet. Its
+worsted by a particle gun which they were given as a joke by another star ship
+crew a 100 years ago. It triggered a similar war and they all thought the
+conflict was finally over than the jet come and starts it back up.
+
+The most boring member of the ship has a really pricy cleaning machine. After
+using it without running the cleaning cycle for a long time germs start to
+grow. This are smart germs with an entire civilization. When he finally runs
+the cleaning cycle the inflection is too bad and only makes the survivors
+angry. From their point of view time goes much slower. After 1000 years (to them)
+of mass political movements, revolutions, and infighting over limited resources
+they finally unite. They all kill the cleaning machine owner and use his body
+for resources to build a ultra advanced civilization that quickly works it way
+up as the most advanced civilization in the universe. As soon as they start
+running low on resources someone comes in to check up on him and they kill
+those people to for resources.
+
+On the planet the star ship is heading missionaries are already there starting
+to convert the natives. The natives dont like them. Their planet was destroyed
+by corporations who stole all their natural resources and left them with
+nothing. Those same corporations spent a tiny fraction of their profits to send
+environmentalists, mutual aid, and missionaries to the planets they
+destroy. They dont actually do much for the people and the planet. All they do
+is protect the image of the corporations. Out of crazy luck a army of giant
+cats shows up on the planet. The natives become friends with them and ride them
+into battle against the missionaries and take their ship all while the star
+ship is on its way over.
+
+** Rat Race
+:PROPERTIES:
+:CUSTOM_ID: rat-race
+:END:
+The whole idea started with this idea "you dont win the rat race by running the
+fastest". This idea sat around in my mind and mixed with other ideas until I
+ended up with the concept for Rat Race. One of the things that mixed was The
+Sirens of Titan. In many ways The Sirens of Titan is a follow up to The
+Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Rat Race would be a alternative way to follow
+up The Sirens of Titan. The story would start out by following around a Kill
+Droid on a large metal plane in a unknown location in space and time. It spends
+its time looking for humans and collection them for experiments. The humans are
+tiny compared to the Kill Droid. The experiment requests just seemingly
+magically show up when it returns and while its gone the experimented on humans
+and research papers are collected by an unknown entity. It has all sorts of
+strange objects in its lab/home. One of which is a old tv turned fish tank full
+of sturgeons. It feeds the unused humans to the sturgeons. Throughout its day
+(its always day there) it has strange almost flashback like day dreams of a
+scientist experimenting on rats.
+
+The scientist, Boaz works at The Rumfoord Pure Research Center. Boaz spends his
+time there doing experiments on rats. His favorite are rat races. Another peep
+at the Research Center is Kazakh. Kazakh is the janitor. The place tends to
+stay clean since its just a bunch of nerds so Kazakh gets a lot of time to fuck
+around. One of the labs has a tank of sturgeons and Kazakh often spends her
+breaks watching the sturgeons while she programs and updates her website on a
+beatin laptop running unix. Boaz and Kazakh are both in one way or another
+modeled after me. Kazakh likes sci-fi, programming, playing bass, and
+philosophy. Boaz likes math, science, video games, and anime. I dont care much
+for stereotypical love stories. To torture people who do I will set things up
+perfectly for Boaz and Kazakh to have a love story though I will instead go for
+a much more natural and organic type of love between them. Kazakh is bisexual
+and tends to go in and out of relationships quickly but always remains lonely
+in some way or another. Boaz is too focused on his work and video games to
+really care about anything else. They will be good friends but also keep their
+distance in fear of hurting each other and direct any interest toward each
+other into a will to understand how each other brains work while still keeping
+a distance out of fear with progress away from that fear only happening in
+small seemingly pointless steps. All this build-up will not have any fully
+satisfying outcomes purely to torture readers (:
+
+Boaz slowly loses his mind in his work. He keeps comparing things in the news
+to things he finds during the rat research. Everywhere he goes he sees these
+connections which push him deeper and deeper into isolation. Society is just
+one big rat race. In the races Boaz is always looking for the rats who dont
+put their all into it. Rats that just sit there or slowly walk to the end. The
+race is pointless yet the rats put so much effort into it. Society just seems
+like one big experiment we waste so much time and effort into. Why even bother?
+Go to school for years, go to even more school, get a job, work your ass off,
+start a family, pay taxes... All this just to soon die. There must be a
+answer. The answer is found in the rats. For another project they are giving
+the rats a new mind bending drug known a goofball. Goofballs cause many effects
+like /Gestaltzerfall/, feeling like you yourself are multiple people and the
+things you do and think are the result of teamwork of those multiple beings
+inside your head, feeling that the entire universe is nearly a internalized
+image of the world protected outwards, and very fractalled hallucinations. Long
+term it effects the way the rats interact and the entire dynamic of their
+colonies. Boaz sneaks some home hoping for more answers to his
+questions. During his trip he finds out we are being researched by human sized
+these rats in lab coats. At home, work, in public... he notices rats watching
+and writing things on clipboards. They disappear as soon as he tries to look at
+them. This drives him deeper into his research. One thing he keeps telling
+himself is "you dont win the rat race by running the fastest". Though ever
+since taking the goofball he has felt a part of him missing, but somehow not an
+important part. Everyone gets more weirded out by him than they already were,
+except Kazakh who's strange little crush on him mixes with a almost scientific
+interest in finding out how his brain works.
+
+One of Kazakh's favorite things to mess around with programming is procedural
+generated worlds. One of these worlds you start by splitting the world in
+two. The upper half the air and the lower the ground. You than split forwards
+and backwards. Forwards is a flat plane and backwards is Perlin noise generated
+terrain. Than you split right and left. Left stays the same and right has
+random noise applied to it making the land sharp and threatening
+looking. Kazakh's website is kazakhsplane.org which has a web assembly compiled
+version of the program for the world I just brought up. On this site she posts
+whatever is on her mind. No one really looks on this site but its more for
+herself than anyone else.
+
+Oneday Boaz wakes up in a dull jail like room with no door and hears a bunch of
+people making noise. He goes out and first thing he sees is giant godzilla
+sized rats in a lab coats standing an unknown distance away looking down at them
+from the sky. The rats tell them stage one of the experiment is complete and
+they are now on stage two. They created a list of different types of humans and
+picked out one of each type. Each person here has their label on their jump
+suit. The rats make them play many different games. Throughout there are many
+things that turn everything into chaos like really bad choices for how people
+are grouped, food storage's, lack of good places to piss and shit. While people
+are creating gangs and getting into fights Boaz just stays in his cell or where
+ever has the least noise and people. He notices many of the "mistakes" along
+closely with variables he would change in experiments. One day the rats have
+them race. If you win or lose doesnt make a real differences though a lot of
+people get really into it and base their entire self worth on it. As long as
+everyone makes it to the end they will be given food regardless of speed. Boaz
+with a piece of chalk he found writes in big letters "its all by design". The
+rats take interest in Boaz and send human sized rats to him. Out of one of
+their pockets they pull out what looks like a suit made of his own skin. They
+say its the version of him he shedded away when he outgrew it than they force
+him back into it. The rats start adding cyborg parts to him and once he is a
+Kill Droid they erase his memory, open up a portal, and place him on the other
+side.
+
+The Kill Droid from the start is Boaz and the metal plane strangely looks like
+Kazakh's plane. All the humans on the plane are the ones who were not picked
+for stage 2. When Boaz finally connects the dots he just gives up on everything
+and walks off toward the random noise and Perlin noise part of the world until
+he somehow runs into Kazakh who walks up to him, and unzips his skin reveling
+the real him under the shedded skin he no longer needed and the Kill Droid
+gear freeing him. She uses a strange looking device to open a portal to earth
+and they go through to find the planet with no more people left. The device
+dies right there preventing them from bringing over the people stuck on the
+plain. The tech needed to fix it doesnt exist on earth so they live out their
+lives just the two of them which they find to be quite easy and peaceful. They
+quite enjoy watching nature reclaim what humanity took from it. They never have
+any children and agree maybe humanity shouldnt continue. Decades later they die
+peacefully from old age.
