    Have you seen what’s down there? It’s terrifying.

    You don’t have to tell me. Deep down at the bottom of the ocean? The whole place is crawling with…capitalists.

    Yeah, yeah. I know. Andrew Ryan gave us all the big, shiny speech, “sweat of your brow” and all that, but what’s he got down there now? Just a buncha junkies and opportunists running guns and peeling off all of that pretty art deco veneer.

    Thanks but no thanks, Ryan.





  • The near-blinding kaleidoscope of lights and color faded to blackness as my virtual reality headset powered down. Pulling the headset away, I yawned and blinked, my eyes adjusting to the LED lighting that bathed my gaming space in neon. I fumbled to turn off the lights. Many colleagues of mine had taken to configuring such devices with voice recognition and control, but truthfully, I was too uneasy to do so myself, fearing who might be listening on the other end.

    I checked the device in my pocket for the current time. Damn. Later than I hoped.

    I walked sluggishly away to bed, punching buttons on the slab in my hand until alarms were set, calendars were reviewed, and quiet again took the space.

    Dude, c’mon guys…

    Can we not immediately sexually objectify any woman who happens to appear in an online photograph or video?

    I thought we left that kind of gross, adolescent shit back on Reddit.
