Doggettfic

No deadline to this challenge--but if you write fast, my birthday's on Thursday and a box full of Doggettfic would be a great present. ;)

2001 April 18, Bigbeautifulspoon, “Smash That Cliche! a Doggettfic challenge”, in alt.tv.x-files.creative (Usenet):

Although I won't archive Doggettfic on Xemplary, it isn't outlawed on the XF Creative Mailing List, where just about anything goes.

2001 July 13, Shannara, “Re: What's with the witch hunt of XF authors?”, in alt.tv.x-files.creative (Usenet):

there is less and less xf fanfic being written now, and most of it seems to be either Doggettfic or based on spoilers for season 9, neither of which i care for.

2001 October 12, Kelly, “update at A Quiet Plaace to Read”, in alt.tv.x-files.creative (Usenet):

(X-files fandom slang) Fan fiction about the character John Doggett from The X-Files.


prostibot

solarpunk

en-noun

solarpunk (countable and uncountable, plural solarpunks)

From solar + -punk, modeled after cyberpunk.

Coordinate term: biopunk

So, in honor of the Beluga Skysail's maiden voyage, I'm going to suggest a new literary genre: solarpunk.

2008 April 30, john-roberts, “From Steampunk to Solarpunk”, in Republic of the Bees, Blogspot:

In a short blog written for the LGBT magazine Vitality, Claudie Arsenault explains that “solarpunk is all about envisioning a positive future, deeply rooted in sustainability, community, and acceptance.”

2015, Evelyn Deshane, Beyond Monsters and Myths: The Transgender Future and Progress Narrative in Speculative Fiction:

“Letters to Lovelace” takes place before the “revelation” as mentioned by Novice Broder in “Moss Piglets.” and is pre-greentech, but is the catalyst for the founding of their solarpunk world.

2017, Marisha Knutson, Summus Deus: A Collection of Short Stories (Honors Thesis, Portland State University):

Lastly (although actually the first paper on the panel), Rhys Williams explored the merits and limitations of the emerging sub-genre of 'solarpunk'.

2017, Paul March-Russell, “Organic Systems: Environments, Bodies and Cultures in Science Fiction, Birkbeck College London, 16 September 2017”, in Foundation, volume 46, number 128:

Most of my novels, I think, are actually fun because I'm doing realism in a way the world needs. As for anyone picking up the mantle, there's a group of young writers who call themselves solarpunk, and what they're trying is all about adaptation.

2017 June, Sally Adee, “The power of good”, in New Scientist, volume 234, number 3129:

Drawing from literary movements like Afrofuturism, hopepunk and solarpunk, this collection of 12 short stories approaches climate change with hope for the radically different futures humans might create.

2023 February 2, “Newly Published, From Climate Fiction to a Lost Congolese Princess”, in The New York Times:

(uncountable) A movement and subgenre of speculative fiction that focuses on community, sustainability, technology powered by renewable energy, and a free and egalitarian society.

zipway

I never cared for zipways as a way to get around megastructures like this. I always thought that there was a reason God invented taxis.

He could only stay there, suspended halfway between the top of the wall and the zipway, and wish would all come out all right. He'd taken a gamble, and sometimes you lost gambles. He felt more than saw the flyers stop, and he dropped down the remaining meter and a half to the surface of the zipway.

2012, Connie Willis, Larry Correia, Mercedes Lackey, A Cosmic Christmas:

(science fiction) A high-speed elevator, corridor, or similar transit route.

vworp

Imitative of the sound made by the TARDIS in Doctor Who (originally produced by sound technician Brian Hodgson by electronically modifying a recording of a key scraping along a piano string).

With a vworp of displaced air, a Double of Bob appeared. Every detail was perfect save the eyes for some reason unknown. Instead of their clear blue, they were the deep green usually associated with impending violence. Nobody was looking so nobody noticed however.

2005 March 31, Clayton, “Re: [PW!] To the Tourney”, in alt.games.nintendo.pokemon (Usenet):

A cyclic wheezing, groaning noise began as Vin approach the back wall. The vworp vworp noise was synchronized with a flashing blue light on top, as the gigantic three-dimensional holographic wall displayed a London 1950 police call box. Vin snatched the door open, stepping inside.

2010 February 18, "danw" ("DAWootan"), {ASSM} OTEC_204_Years, alt.sex.stories.moderated

A voice cackled all evil-like and then lightning struck the tower and with a vworp it disappeared! Gosh!

2014 February 23, Drew Perron, MISC: Spies With Badges: "Junior Spies The First Movie", rec.arts.comics.creative, Usenet

No sooner had the spell been cast than it was broken by a sound from outside the castle; the loud, rough, grinding, metallic grunting sound—vworp-vworp-vworp!—of some machine trying to come to life or die quickly.

2019, Lucy A. Snyder, While the Black Stars Burn

(onomatopoeia) Representing the sound made by teleporting or dematerialising/rematerialising.

Cirno: "I'll cryo-freeze you together with some English beef!"

2002, Team Shanghai Alice, Embodiment of Scarlet Devil:

This requires bulky machinery and other equipment that one person is unlikely to be able to maneuver. Furthermore, even if current technology could cryo-freeze an entire body, the process would take many hours. Dr. Stein made inquiries and found out that a specialist in the field of cryogenics had made a breakthrough just a few weeks before the murder that allowed him to safely freeze single organs, but not entire bodies.

"Both the original injury and the cryo-freeze did him a lot of damage, some of it permanent. He was forced to take a medical discharge, which he — hm! — did not handle well. It's not my place to discuss those details.” “If he was injured badly enough to need cryo-freeze, he was dead!” she said, startled. “Technically, I suppose so. 'Alive' and 'dead' are not such neat categories as they used to be in the Time of Isolation.”

1999, Lois McMaster Bujold, Komarr, Baen Books, →ISBN:

"What are you going to do with her?" he asked. "Nothing, Dr. Sanders. You are." Sanders shook his head. "What do you mean?" - "We've got two new clients, Dr. Sanders, that need to be put into cryo-freeze..."

2011, Russell Davis, Touchless, Wildside Press LLC, →ISBN, page 154:

Oh I hate this, and she did it on purpose, I'm floating in mid grav feeling like I'm in cryo freeze like the old days. “Lasko you were never in cryo freeze, that has not been used since the star stream was discovered.” Good point, and it is kinda good for the back. “Just be careful of the...” Ow, the transition. “Sorry Lasko, but I told you to stay seated.” The tone in her voice tells me she kinda enjoyed that."

She caught my expression, and added quickly, “Oh, but not bad brain worms. Good brain worms. They know most of the languages that are spoken across the worlds, and pretty soon you will too.”

2012, David Barr Kirtley, “The Ontological Factor”, in John Joseph Adams, editor, Other Worlds Than These, unnumbered page:

"Yes. And I'm going to get back to her. Nothing's going to stand in the way of that. Not two thousand years...not some overambitious species that think they're gods...not monsters or brain-worms or secret assassins."

Suppose that we agreed to allow almost the entire accessible universe to be converted into hedonium—everything except a small preserve, say the Milky Way, which would be set aside to accommodate our own needs.

2014, Nick Bostrom, Superintelligence, page 219:

It’s because we intuitively or pre-theoretically think that we shouldn’t give all our cookies to the utility monster or kill ourselves to tile the solar system with hedonium that we reject the straightforward extension of utilitarian happiness-maximizing theory to such cases and reach for a different solution.

2015 November 17, Eric Schwitzgebel, Mara Garza, “A Defense of the Rights of Artificial Intelligences”, in Midwest Studies in Philosophy:

Suppose the AI goes on to convert all matter in the accessible universe to hedonium, i.e., to rearrange matter so as to produce the greatest amount of pleasurable experience per unit mass.

microplanetoid

I mean, the Fomalhauters weren't having enough problems with the repairs to their exhaust duct—their StarGrazer'd taken a hit from a rogue microplanetoid—then this earthbound yo-yo tries to put a goddam drift netter up their tailpipe.

1998, Dana Stabenow, Killing Grounds, →ISBN, page 104:

The loose group of rocks, sand, random molecules, and microplanetoids known as the Hallelujah node was traveling in company around the Sun at a speed of eleven miles per second.

2009, Robert A. Heinlein, The Rolling Stones, →ISBN:

Around three hundred meters long and a little less than half as wide, the new shape was much smaller than the microplanetoid configuration.

2015, John Steiner, Flipspace:Astraeus Event, Missions 10-12, →ISBN, page 81:

(science fiction) An astronomical body smaller than a planetoid, such as an asteroid or planetesimal.


underbreed

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-underbreed.wav

Leaf felt degraded by that — hiring on, in effect, as an indentured underbreed — but what choice was there for him?

1973, Terry Carr, Richard A. Lupoff, Robert Silverberg, No Mind of Man: Three Original Novellas of Science Fiction, page 122:

I had an idea who it was but called the command post and demanded the names of the underbreeds who had last piloted the jet

1995, Alan Cockrell, Tail of the Storm: Flying Missions in the First Gulf War, →ISBN, page 49:

Hi is thinking about those strange advertisements they read in the tabloid to titillate themselves, and the present in which he exists seems suddenly like some weird science fiction movie of the future in which the world is organized in a strange manner with certain people as an underbreed in which they are manipulated by economics to sell their bodies to others who live in another sphere where the repression of their carnality is required as an imagined requisite for social order.

2013, Thomas E. Kennedy, Kerrigan in Copenhagen, →ISBN, page 119:

(chiefly science fiction) An inferior or subservient breed of people or sentient beings.


underperson

LL-Q1860 (eng)-Flame, not lame-underperson.wav

For I felt sure these underpeople had taken it.

1895, Herbert George Wells, The Time Machine, page 118:

Life is no longer the long, easy ride the true men are accustomed to, and although life is not exactly fraught with peril, the true men learn of vulnerability and danger, things that the underpeople have long lived with.

2001, Karen L. Hellekson, The Science Fiction of Cordwainer Smith, →ISBN, page 69:

The Administrator sent me here on a crazy errand, killing an unknown underperson. I find out that the person is really a little girl. Then I find out that she is not an underperson, but a frightening old dead woman, still walking around alive.

2012, Gardner Dozois, A Day in the Life, →ISBN:

These underpeople were even less human than the androids, their very appearance making obvious their animal origins.

Nintendium

From Nintendo + -ium (“suffix for naming new elements”).

[W]hatever they make Nintendo systems out of ("Nintendium," as it's come to be known) seems to be able to withstand anything.

The Joy-Cons need to be comfortable, light, and feel like they’re made of Nintendium (the mysterious alloys Nintendo used in the original NES controller, seemingly related to Gundanium).

2016, Will Greenwald, Nintendo Switch Looks Really Promising, Here’s How They Might Screw It Up, Geek.com

All components feel very sturdy and of solid construction (Nintendium still being used!).

cognitive estrangement

Coined by Yugoslav-born academic, writer and critic Darko Suvin in his 1979 book Metamorphoses of Science Fiction.

In his book Metamorphoses of Science Fiction (1979), Suvin introduced a number of ideas that remain central in sf criticism: cognitive estrangement, the novum and sf's genetic link with utopia. In the notion of cognitive estrangement, Suvin conflate two distinct, but related, ideas of estrangement from earlier literary theory: ostranenie (de-familiarization) from the Russian Formalists, and Berthold Brecht's Verfremdungseffekt (alienation effect).[…]Even more influential in sf theory than cognitive estrangement is Suvin's concept of the novum.

2003, Istvan Csicsery-Ronay, Jr., “7: Marxist theory and science fiction”, in Edward James, Farah Mendlesohn, editors, The Cambridge Companion to Science Fiction, Cambridge University Press, page 118:

Cognitive estrangement can therefore be seen as defining the textual effects of such work: the text faces its audience with something that will not fit into the existing patterns of verisimilitude, yet is being asserted and explored as fact.

2005, Jan Johnson-Smith, American Science Fiction TV: Star Trek, Stargate and Beyond, I.B. Tauris, page 26:

Darko Suvin, the eminent theorist of science fiction, defined science fiction as a literature of cognitive estrangement, a genre in which the reader enters an imaginative world different or estranged from his or her empirical world, but different in a way that obeys rational causation or scientific law: thus, it is estranged cognitively.

2011, Roger Luckhurst, “1: In the Zone: Topologies of Genre Weirdness”, in Sara Wasson, Emily Alder, editors, Gothic Science Fiction 1980-2010, Liverpool University Press, page 21:
