Hello! I’m Selena, a very gay former human. My pronouns are xe/xyr.

I work as a developer by day. Then I slip out of my human flesh and have depraved ancom postfurry orgies with lots of tentacles, blood, etc.1

My name is a pun on a Boards of Canada song about the end of industrial civilization.2 More optimistically, it evokes an old saying: “A society grows great when old men plant trees in whose shade they shall never sit.”

This site is a clearinghouse for thoughts and opinions on posthumanity, transtrans, and my own peculiar breed of rationalism.

Interested in contacting me? My Discord handle is SelenaMertvykh#N, where N is the number of visually distinct ways to fill a 38-block row with blocks of length 1, 8, and 9.


  1. They’re great fun. One day I’ll set up a Cicada 3301-styled ARG to find those who want to be like me. We have such sights to show you. ↩︎

  2. Does this depress you? It doesn’t have to. Everything ends. ↩︎
