Richard Moon, Sandwich Enjoyer (@rmoonhill.bsky.social) reply parent
And then there's the piggie-things from that Orson Scott Card(blergh) book, Speaker for the Dead maybe? They were porcine, wormy, and tree-like, in different parts of their life-cycle. So calling them "plantoid" is valid in a certain sense, but also very, very wrong.
Richard Moon, Sandwich Enjoyer (@rmoonhill.bsky.social) reply parent
And they'd probably rail endlessly against the "somethingoid" usage. Like, the Aliens xenomorph(another term I love even though is says basically nothing); it's animalesque, but also insectile, but it's also neither. So it (and everything like it in its heritage) need a new term.
Richard Moon, Sandwich Enjoyer (@rmoonhill.bsky.social) reply parent
"-oid" is just such a useful suffix for whenever we're too lazy to come up with a unique name. Sometimes it feels like a crutch, though. I'd bet a certain type of biologist would LOVE to sit down and classify alien creatures by their relative positions in their own biospheres, all nitty-gritty.
Richard Moon, Sandwich Enjoyer (@rmoonhill.bsky.social) reply parent
Been thinking a lot about this over the years, and I can't help but come down on the side of considering every single distinct biosphere as containing its own kingdoms, separate from terrestrial kingdoms. MAYBE a Rigellian Fungoid is extremely similar to an Earth Fungus, but proper taxonomy is all

You have no idea what I do or do not take with skepticism. But I do know that you'd rather stick rhetorically with data from 1945 than consider that 1995 might be somewhat more relevant to the conclusions. Which I find *very* interesting, considering where this all started.

I'm still developing, but the major thing is this: The lack of any incline. Artificially generating a gravitational field is already a physics-defying proposition, but then the fact that none of the gravity anyone ever makes behaves at all like, well, gravity, is sticking in my brain.
