@Austin_Dern I strongly considered an option for "Organic, but not 'life as we know it'." I definitely don't want to exclude treefolk, clay golems, living gummy candy, crystals, coherent liquids, or other fascinating sorts.
@Austin_Dern My head coughs up "bioqueer" as an ad-hoc solution for those who want to or have already changed their substrate, but now I'm interested in what others have come up with.
@ElectricKeet Oh, I like how 'bioqueer' sounds, but I'll see if I can't think of anything worthwhile.
@ElectricKeet Oh, I know you didn't figure on excluding the strange-texture folks. It's just really hard to think of a good term covering that set. ... Trust my FurAffinity searches, we can't even get 'vitrifaction' to be a reliable thing.
