Recorvia Episode 15
There were very few lights on the lower level of the castle Mallory had broken into. He crept through the dungeon that had way too many easy entrances. He stopped. A terrifying cackling heard around the corner in a small chamber followed by a voice, “AHAHAHA!! Ooooh this is just so riveting!! My lovely lady, oh yes, bless my lady!” Mallory looked through a small peephole and froze, petrified. Inside, a woman lay strapped with leather to a flat stone. Her mouth had a gauze shoved into it […]https://solaceem.wordpress.com/2026/09/06/recorvia-episode-15/

Imagine a future in which late-stage capitalism became able to scan cadavers' brains and transfer them into chatbots unless the deceased subscribes to a high-tier funerary services plan. Behold the ultimate wet dream of those who think Black Mirror is meant as an instruction manual: KadAIve®!
Alt-text contains important explanation about this absurdist art (such as, the deliberate mimicking of AI slop machine style and the hidden puns/messages within the text), but will likely end up truncated because it's way too lengthy (too many details that ought to be explained). Hell, it's even exceeds the 5000 character limit when I try to paste the alt-text here in the post.

“Release” is a #dystopian #SciFi #MMRomance by Marie Sexton.
Misha grew up in the “trenches” of lower Davlova, where the poorest citizens scratch out a living without technology while the high-born “purebloods” live in electrified luxury behind the walls of the inner city on the hill. Misha gets taken in by one of the clans, criminal gangs that run all sorts of operations in the city. Over the years, Misha learned the fine art of pickpocketing. Sometimes he also turns tricks to see if a potential mark had a lot of money, and where he kept it.
One day, the clan leader offers Misha a new opportunity. One of the most powerful men in the city is looking for a new toy boy and wants someone “exotic.” The clan leader isn’t just asking Misha to prostitute himself. She wants him to gain the man’s confidence and learn his secrets. The information may provide the catalyst that starts a revolution.

Good morning. 🌸🌸🌸
11 July 2026
I use my phone mostly as a pocket‑sized computer rather than a telephone, though I do occasionally make or answer a call. If I want to look something up—anytime, anywhere—I reach for my back pocket, pull out my iPhone, and the world opens. It’s amazing, really, and I know I’m not the only one who does this. But if I set my phone down while moving around and suddenly think of something I want to research, which happens often, I find myself scrambling. Where did I leave it? That moment of panic is unsettling. It’s strange to feel so tethered to an object. In a way, it’s like carrying around a genie everywhere I go—one that can answer any question or fetch almost anything with a tap. Aladdin’s lamp has nothing on this little slab of metal and glass; I get far more than three wishes.
It makes me wonder how I managed daily life for so long without a cell phone. Maybe it’s similar to what my grandparents must have felt when they looked back and asked how people lived without running water or electricity. Was there really life before the automobile? I suspect most of us today wouldn’t last long in that world.
Imagine the chaos if all the cell towers suddenly went dark. It’s not impossible. Then what? Payphones have vanished, and most homes have abandoned landlines. And that’s just the communication piece. If electricity and fuel stopped flowing, survival itself would be at stake.
It’s almost comical that misplacing my iPhone can spark visions of a dystopian future—but here we are.

The #US is dragging #Europe back to the days of white #supremacism. Our leaders are playing along
if we want to protect multiparty liberal #democracy and push back against the #FarRight, we should be far more wary not only of #toxic speeches from across the Atlantic but of #Trump’s close ties to Europe’s #xenophobic parties and the many ways in which the US’s #Maga politicians are legitimising far-right ideologies...
