Social Media for modern lovers in the digital age.
Is That Really Them?
You're browsing the internet in the age of AI. You use the internet with a sense of open minded curiosity but with a greater sense of caution and common sense. You're a well-rounded and intelligent person. You'd know if something looked off.

You Ate What?
What did you say? You ate what? We have been consumed with modern technology. Every week it seems there is some new innovation to consider. Never has it been more imperative to take a step back and revisit what we are dealing with, because everything has a consequence, good or bad.

Facebook is Dead. Top Story - February 2026.
Or at least it feels like it's dead, doesn’t it? Any system that is not maintained and improved but simply left to its own devices, will enter a stage of entropy (natural, slow decay, degradation, and dilapidation) and eventually die.

Falling Between Every System
Modern social systems are often described as safety nets. Employment law protects workers. Healthcare programs provide treatment. Disability benefits replace lost income. Unemployment insurance bridges job loss. Each system is presented as a safeguard designed to catch people when life disrupts their ability to function normally. Yet for many people living with disability, chronic illness, or injury, the lived experience is the opposite. Rather than forming a net, these systems stack vertically, each with its own eligibility rules, thresholds, and assumptions. Instead of catching the fall, they create gaps. People do not slip through because they failed to try. They fall because the systems were never designed to align.

Friendship Fossilised. Content Warning.
Introduction This has been inspired by the fact that I often include old stories of mine, to expand or enhance new stories, and also to make sure that I am not repeating myself too much. It is OK for some repetition to give emphasis to some points, but I don't want a virtual repeat of any old stories.

Darkness Descends
Flying over the rift valley formed between the left and right, a kettle of rapacious vultures are patiently circling. Although the scent of death has only just begun to seep through the air, these necrophages salaciously wait in anticipation. Ogling a well intentioned yet largely uniformed society tear itself apart, they covetously await the feast with complete disregard for the collective.

Visiobibliophobia.
Gerad sits with his phone face‑down, though the screen keeps lighting up beneath it - a pulse he refuses to acknowledge. The apps are arranged in neat rows- bright squares, soft gradients, tiny promises of connection - but to him they feel like doors that open only onto rooms full of people already speaking fluently in a language he never learned.
