baboon, n. A kind of chimera. In appearance, a baboon resembles the Olive baboon of equatorial Africa. See Wikipedia, whence:
"The Olive Baboon is named for its coat, which, at a distance, is a shade of green-grey. (Its alternate name comes from the Egyptian god Anubis, who was often represented by a dog head resembling the dog-like muzzle of the baboon.) At closer range, its coat is multi-colored, due to rings of yellow-brown and black on the hairs. The hair on the baboon's face, however, is finer and ranges from dark grey to black. This coloration is shared by both sexes, although males have a mane of longer hair that tapers down to ordinary length along the back. Besides the mane, the male Olive Baboon differs from the female in terms of size and weight: males are, on average, 70 cm tall and weigh 24 kg; females measure 60 cm and 14.7 kg.
Like other baboons, the Olive Baboon has a long, pointed, dog-like muzzle. In fact, along with the muzzle, the animal's tail (38-58 cm) and four-legged gait can make baboons seem very canine. The tail almost looks as if it is broken, as it is held upright over the rump for the first quarter, after which it drops sharply. The bare patch of a baboon's rump, famously seen in cartoons and movies, is a good deal smaller in the Olive Baboon."
bellfold, n. A fold which functions as a doorbell.
big sys, n. The modern web. It does a lot of stuff like implementing pings, running money, etc. But its power is strangely hobbled, because it can't (or won't) answer a lot of questions. For example, big sys will not usually tell you the current whereabouts of a person or chim. It is this fuzzy limit on the omniscience of big sys which makes the job of an integrator necessary.
bloig, n. Tabloid blog.
Blow, The, p.n. The effect of the Monsanto Fuckup. This event, the accidental release of a biological weapon, killed 96.4% of human beings, on all worlds, 2365 9 May (sondag) - 15 May.

burner, n. A weapon whose effect is achieved by disrupting the strong nuclear force in its target field, causing an unstable thermally destructive chain reaction in affected matter.
chigger, n. (strongly pejorative) Chimera.
chimera, n. An intellectually enhanced non-human hominid: a chimpanzee, gorilla, orangutan, baboon, or macaque. "Chimera" is pronounced in the Swedish fashion, with a soft initial ch sound, as in "chimpanzee."
chim, n. Chimera.

dead cat, n. A bug in a quantum computer. After Shroedinger.
enforcer, n. A person licensed by a state to perform violence on its behalf.
extended sensorium, n. A collective term for the cognitive and somatic enhancements common to modern human beings. These include the ability to see in the infrared and ultraviolet, enhanced sense of smell, taste, hearing, proprioception, etc.

fold, n. A pseudo-object, occupying a perceptual space shared among individuals, and used to facilitate communication, usually of visual data.

grounge, n., adj. A color in infrared light.
Hawking bridge, n. The macroscopic quantum effect which sometimes opens a way to a New World. Voodoo physics.
het, n, adj. is originally from "heterosexual" (probably influenced by English "hot"). Genetically augmented senses mean that mutual "love at first sight" is highly compelling and inescapably self-evident. To be het for one another is to be in mutual sexual love. "Het" also refers in a larger sense to sexual orientation and attraction, but has lost any oppositional meaning to "homosexual."
homb, n. Cultured human flesh.
integrator, n. ("integ"). An investigator. A detective.
irlight, n. Infrared light, made perceptible by the extended sensorium.
iyears, n. Visible big sys antennae.
liber, n. One who advocates an immediate and unconditional end to chimera slavery.
load, n. A mass data transfer, usually of highly related material. E.g. "case load". One way to transfer load is via a load pellet, produced via the navel by
an organoid, and consumed orally.
macaque, n. A kind of chimera. In appearance, a macaque resembles the Formosan rock macaque (see Wikipedia: "... macaques measure 50-60 cm and weigh 5-12 kg, generally females are smaller. Their tails are moderately long and measure 26-45 cm. This macaque is brown or gray in color. ...").
mome, n. Sork.
Monsanto Fuckup, p.n. The accidental release of the biological weapon which caused The Blow. 9 May 2365, Minneapolis at Earth.

peep, n. People.
perceptual space, n. The inter-sys protocolic ground for implementing shared perception of e.g. pseudo-objects.

ping cloud, n. The information big sys keeps about your pings.
pseudo-object, n. An ostensible object, implemented by shared perceptual spaces, but having no existence in reality.
purbleu, n., adj. A color in ultraviolet light.
quantcomp, n. Quantum computer.
reigraphy, n. The practice of recording reality in a form which preserves the extended sensorium, and thus enhances the verisimilitude of playback.

sork, n. Scrote.
speesh, n. People. From "species".
Swedish Enforcement, n. The Swedish Armed Forces
