The technological enhancement of the human body and mind to exceed natural biological limits. It moves beyond repair (like a pacemaker) into deliberate upgrade: neural implants for instant memory recall, augmented reality lenses overlaying data on the visual field, or prosthetic limbs stronger and more dextrous than flesh. This field blurs the line between human and machine, raising profound questions about identity, inequality, and what it means to be "human" when your capabilities are downloadable and your senses are synthetic.
Augmentation Example: A construction worker with Augmented exoskeletal limbs that allow them to lift I-beams effortlessly, paired with eye implants that display structural stress loads in real time, is a cyborg not for war, but for work. Their human baseline has been permanently enhanced by integrated technology.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.
Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.
A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.
A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.
This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.
Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
