All too often, when I need a ship with a specific fit, I do not have one. Or if I do, the fit is somehow out of date or missing something.
At times like this, making a list of stuff I want to have fitted and ready at all times sounds like a very good idea. At other times, I suspect it would be a very long list, exhausting to actually implement.

Ghost pains
It is said that if a limb is cut off, you get ghost pains. It hurts where the missing limb should be.

Sense of time
There is a new Matari channel, Circle of Tribes. I was there yesterday.
Listening to the discussion made me realize how different sense of time capsuleers have from regular people - people of the clans, of the tribes.
For many capsuleers a year is a long time, five years almost like an eternity. For a non-capsuleer, five years is short. For a clan, a tribe, five years is like nothing, hardly significant in the succession of generations.
Yet, capsuleers make so much noise about their supposed "immortality". Immortality, when the technology itself has been in use for only seven years? Immortality, when one cannot even remember events that happened five years back?
Such infinite arrogance.

Where no bird flies
Light wrapped by dark
Chains of air crisscrossing
Where no bird flies
(Ryuna Rai, "Of stations")
Looking for new music.
