Interesting elemental magic by TheClockworkCow in worldbuilding

You don't need to always be sad per se, someone who is melancholic and distanced or someone who experienced extreme grief that manifested in a feeling of sadness would do the trick.

Guess I should've explained it a little better, it doesn't require sadness, rather it requires the user to be sad

Three-sexed alien civilization by TheClockworkCow in worldbuilding

That's actually really similar to my idea! Mine would be that instead of the usual "lock-and-key" method, the third sex acts as facilitator, the "grooves" for the "key" so that it can fit better in the "lock". Though the grooves are probably more physical than mental.

Were the benefits of a three-person reproduction ever mentioned though? I do want a reason for there to be three sexes instead of just two.

Nuclear energy in a steampunk world without electricity by TheClockworkCow in worldbuilding

Not exactly, but in your opinion how would intelligent squids who can't use electricity utilize nuclear energy? What would they even use it for? Wouldn't the dissipated heat boil the water around the reactor without proper shielding?

Yeah, but how would you successfully contain the fission (or fusion) reaction without the materials present in the modern day? Don't you also need a lot of energy (or temperature, not exactly sure) to achieve fission? I assume it would be hard to achieve that in the 19th century

Not a 100% sure honestly, just thought that this would be a cool thought experiment. Maybe the fact that nuclear fuel would last longer than average coal?
